Hollywood (white) male bashing?
As smart as re-making the Pink Panther with Steve Martin.
The stupidity of Hollywood knows no bounds.
We conquered the world.
We can take it.
Greatest line in the movie. When they are talking about Chaos trying to explode a nuke in L.A., Maxwell says: “We can’t allow that, we would lose the razor sharp political commentary of the Hollywood stars”.
Most movies are wait for the cheap dvd in the Wal-Mart clearnace rack. There are a few worth getting as new releases.
Extremely rare is the movie that you’ve got to see on the big screen. It requires some kind of huge screen, cinemascope type setting or action that makes the big screen a must.
Say, I guess the President hasn’t converted to Catholicism yet?
Carell can do some good work — but he seems to be one of those Hollywood people who simply can’t tell a good script from a bad one: he shows up in some awful movies.
Oh no, I was really looking forward to seeing the movie. Guess I’ll wait and rent the DVD.
I always try to put my self in the room with the producers and greenlighters at the studios when they decide on one of these films. I ask... what in the world made them say YES it is worth 60 million to make. It seems steve martin has been stuck in that same room for the past 20 years.
The original 99 was way cute.
Zohan - funny
Indiana Jones - so so (Already saw National Treasure 2)
Iron Man - surprisingly well done
(I just figured, since we’re reviewing movies....)
Found the TV series vapid... have no desire to see it rehashed on the big screen.
???
THis movie didn’t get a rating of 54% on Rotten Tomatoes for nothing. It stinks.
I have to question the intelligence of anyone who decides to spend ten bucks to watch this movie after seeing the previews.
The Hulk was really good, surprised me. They put a kicker in the last scene that was neat.
It honestly depends - if you’re looking for something like the original TV series, forget about it, and go see something else. If you’re looking for typical Steve Carrell humor (like his character in The Office), you’ll absolutely love it.
Wife & I saw it yesterday. Have seen worse! But, wouldn’t care to see it again. Forgettable- like most movies these days....
I made the mistake of leaving National Treasure 2 on my Netflix list. I figured how bad could it really be? It could be one of the worst movies EVER! Do you think that sometime during the filming, editing or screening, one person in the cast said, “This is just terrible!” or do you think they are so self important that they feel anything they touch is a masterpiece.
I don’t know, I could watch Ann Hathaway for two hours. I’d just take my Ipod to drown out everything else.
