"i should never have started this film and and stopped watching after 3/4 . i missed the really botched ending. this film was a disappointment because it could have been so much better. it had nice atmosphere and a top notch cast and director and good locations. but a baaaaaad story line and a bad script. i paid attention to kenneth branagh southern accent it was better than the script. the plot was stupid driven by characters acting in unreal and improbable ways. no one behaves like this outside of hollywood scripts.

"i can not believe that so much talent can be wasted in one movie. the gingerbread man starts of on the right foot and and manages to build up some great expectations for the ending. but at some point the movie turns into one of the worst stories i have ever wasted my time on. it just so unbelievably how the bewitched mallory doss manages to pull kenneth branagh character around by his nose. the movies climax is as uninteresting and flat as a beer and which has been left out in the sun too long. the gingerbread man is probably the worst grisham movie ever and this isn not changed by the fact that talented stars crowd the movie. don not waste your time here.

"a very weak movie and mainly because of a poor story and but also poor acting in the case of robert downey jr. and and irrational behaviour by many of the characters. if you are someone who likes to switch your mind off and simply watch a movie for it creativity or acting criteria and then you may like this movie. personally i can not do that with a drama and found this too far fetched. i am particularly annoyed when a main character and that is supposed to be an intelligent person and continually acts like a complete imbecile. in this movie and if the main character acted the way a person would normally act in these situations and there would be no movie. the first highly unlikely act is when the main character and a successful attorney named magruder and played by kenneth branagh and is leaving a party and happens upon a girl and mallory doss played by embeth davidtz and who is screaming that her car has been stolen. they are standing around in a tropical rainstorm as he badgers her into accepting a ride home. she tells him about her weird father who belongs to some kind of weird sect and does crazy things. when they arrive at her dilapidated shack in the poorer part of town and they notice that her car is in the driveway. also the house lights are on and some objects in the house have been broken. things are very odd and she weird (looking like a tramp and she undresses in front of him until she completely naked
oh yeah. ). also and the father strange and the house is a wreck everything should have told magruder and hey this is too weird for me and i am out of here. but not magruder and he sleeps with her and then and motivated by her story and sex and takes up the case of trying to have her father committed. it all screams set up. then and being the top flight attorney that he is and he arrives late at the office wearing the same shirt he had on the night before and (a fact that all of the women in the office notice). is it likely that a successful attorney would act like a 16 year old. magruder has upset the police in some of his cases so when he goes to the police claiming and with ample evidence and that the father is terrorising them and the police ignore him. i could have believed begrudging assistance. but no help at all not likely. it just too unlikely.

"i have seen some bad movies (austin powers the spy who shagged me and batman forever) and but this film is so awful and so boring and that i got about half way through and could not bear watching the rest. a pity. boasting talent such as kenneth branagh and embeth davitz and robert duvall and a story by john grisham and what went wrong. branagh is a big time lawyer who has a one night fling with davitz. her father (duvall) is a psychopath who hanged her cat and etc and etc and so branagh has him sent to a nuthouse and and he promptly escapes. somehow (i couldn not figure out how) robert downey jr and daryl hannah and famke janssen and tom berenger are all mixed into the story which moves slower than stationary. i wanted to like this and and and being a huge grisham fan and have read all about this movie and i (foolishly) expected something interesting. this is honestly the worst film i have seen to date and i wish i could have my money refunded. out of .

"i saw this movie at the afi dallas festival. most of the audience and including my wife and enjoyed this comedy drama and but i do not. it stars lucas haas (brick and alpha dog) and molly parker (kissed and the five senses and hollywoodland) and adam scott (first snow and art school confidential). the director is matt bissonnette and who married to molly parker. all three actors do a fine job in this movie about 3 friends and the marriage of two of them and infidelity involving the third. it all takes place at a lake house and it looks wonderful. the film wants to treat its subject as a comedy first and then a drama and and i thought it needed to be the other way around.

"my wife and i just finished this movie and i came onto to imdb to commiserate with the reviewers that found this movie less than satisfactory. however and of the 10 pages of reviews and only a handful are negative. i feel that this movie is a great concept gone horribly awry and i want to warn those who are looking to watch the movie into the future. i admit and i am more inspired to write reviews when i do not like a movie than as to when i do and so my handful of reviews are all negative. still and that doesn not mean i am biased towards not enjoying a movie and but i often find more eloquent reviews of movies i do enjoy. paris je taime is the most pretentious movie i have seen in years. by using an intelligent concept and attaching some big talent to a couple of the way to many short stories and the movie ends up the worst of all worlds. it is art for arts sake and but something that a 2 year old could dream up and accomplish. giving the director free reign of 5 minutes of screen time proves why there is a division of labor even in entertainment. directors can not write and writers can not direct. (i would like to throw in also that clint eastwood is overrated and but that is because he an actor turn director {which rarely works and either}). what ends up on the screen is a garbled mess of short stories that do not make any sense and are not completed in 5 minutes and in total and spoil paris to me. why call it paris je taime when a more apropos title is cluster fck. there are only a couple stories that are watchable and most notably the piece by alfonso cuarón and but everything else will fall into obscurity. the coen brothers short is passable and but can you name a movie of theirs that does not contain a scene with a pick guitar. it as if all the directors decided on doing whatever it is they want to do and chose paris as the place to do it. as we all love paris and present company included and we are blinded by the fact that this movie sucks. in fact and i think they put the directors names on each of the shorts because directors saw how poor of a film this is and decided to make sure they were blamed only for their 5 minutes. seriously. seriously. people and natalie portman is not a good actress. she is is not a pixie dream girl waiting to be yours. and maggie gyllenhaal and why. are you people acting or just regurgitating performances from other movies. i am looking at you natalie portman (garden state and closer) and elijah wood (sin city) and catalina sandino moreno (maria full of grace). one final comment on the acting represent i give double kudos to nick nolte for acting and looking more humane than you have in ages or perhaps ever will again. find his short on youtube as his 5 minutes are quite enjoyable. writing short stories is very difficult and only a handful of authors have gotten it right. i am thinking of ernst hemingway and raymond carver and f. scott fitzgerald and and john cheever and just to name a few. it is much harder than writing a full novel and only the truly talented can accomplish this. the same can be said about short films. it appears that only one director will live on in the annals of history. if you uphold paris as a gem to be discovered and reflected through your own lenses with your own story and then do not expect to enjoy this movie at all. the directors either do not care or were lazy. in either scenario and by the time you are reading this it means you rented it. praise be that you do not pay 10 dollars a head in theaters for it.

"only a handful of the segments are engaging here. a segment with a garage attendant from nigeria is heartbreaking. one with fanny ardent and bob hoskins makes its point and twist by twist until the final shot overplays things. the problem with this movie is that only a few of the clips invoke paris. the others are so scatter shot in theme and tone and volition and production that you may as well be watching the years best commercials and 2006. it really all over the place. it doesn not develop over it running time and and nothing reigns the directors in. no construct successfully joins the pieces. tedium sets in. i am at the one hour and twenty minute point and elijah wood is in some dumb and over commercial and overproduced vampire shtick. it has about as much to do with paris as old ladies knitting in the antartic. fantasy shows up i think first in the coen brothers segment (uh and thanks j and e for ruining another movie) and then makes way too many appearances. the point of being in paris is that you do not need make believe crap to make your days extraordinary. why divide it by neighborhood if quartier de la madeleine is equated with vampires for some loser director. has there ever been a genre more over represented than the vampire film. every three years we get the same lame vampire clichés. making things worse is that the switch from segment to segment is pretty artless. the transitions get lost. this doesn not feel intentional and it feels sloppy.

"i saw paris je taime because a friend really wanted to see it so i went along with him. going in and i was indifferent about the film but leaving the theater i really regretted wasting 2 hours of my life sitting through this tepid production. the stories are almost completely forgettable except for the fact that most of them were awful. what do gena rowlands and ben gazzara have to do with paris. the endless parade of american actors most definitely gave this french film a remarkably non french feel. the clichés about paris were endless. yes and most of them were playing with clichés about paris but by spending so much time making fun of french clichés and they directly and regrettably promoted them once more. yes and paris is the city of love. we get it. the worst segments were represent the one directed by wes craven (oscar wilde) while the one with nick nolte while the mime one (the worst. ) while the hair products one while the one with juliette binoche (willem dafoe as a cowboy in the middle of paris. ) while the vampire one (when i think of paris i think of elijah wood). the one with natalie portman and which really looked like a mentos commercial and it was stupid (the blind young man should know portman was just playing a part when she called him). on and on it went. it felt endless. i do not like the coen bros one as well. it really plays with those parisien clichés but i do not find it funny. just annoying. the gus van sant one was interesting but it was so slight (and the punchline was obvious) that it barely registered. there were only two successful segments and they were the one about the immigrant nanny who leaves her baby at a kindergarten only to babysit a baby for a rich woman. nice irony there. and the segment about the african who is stabbed. it the best segment in the whole film but this segment has nothing to do with paris. the story could have taken place in any city around the world. the last segment and the one with the chubby middle aged woman was sorta interesting too but the underlying tone was bad. they wanted to celebrate her limited grasp of french but the segment came off as being condescending. the whole project felt forced and uninspired. almost like the french government sponsored this film to promote tourism. all in all and with only about 10 to 15 minutes of interesting stuff and paris je taime was an awful cinematic experience.

"based upon the recommendation of a friend and my wife and i invited another couple to this film. i really apologized to them all 4 of us hated it and spent the whole time looking at our watches waiting for the film to finally end. half the vignettes are bizarre and with very little entertainment value. there were few scenes of paris for example and i was looking forward to seeing some pictures of the latin quarter and but i couldn not really recognize anything. most of the scene was inside a bar. no one in the theater laughed at anything and or reacted in any way. if you like bizarre and pretentious and pseudo intellectual films and do not miss this. if you are down to earth like me and you will be sorry you saw it.

"be warned represent this movie tells lots of love stories without any coherence. the only intention of this movie seems to be showing love in many different ways. each story has only a few minutes and so there is no development of characters and nearly no plot. just an sketchy idea of a plot. the writer tried to build in turning points that aimed to surprise the viewer. however and that just do not work out because you do not get to know the characters in before or these jokes were just silly. this is a movie about love that fails to reach your heart. a dozen times. or even more and i do not know and i do not care.

"the idea is nice. bringing so many stars in one movie is great. but. too many stories and too short and lacking really any sense. no connection between the scenes. there were some 3 4 brilliant stories. but these were out of 18. the frame reminded me of all the invisible children a movie which i liked a lot. compared to it and however and paris je taime lacks the intriguing short story and which develops starts and has its end. and it lacks the topic connecting all those children. i do not find paris enough of a topic to connect 18 short sketches together. perhaps for people who know paris it is interesting. otherwise and i do not recommend it.

"in its depiction of a miserable milanese underclass and this film was probably quite revealing in its day. however and i get the feeling that neorealism was never really director de sica bag and since here he decided to try and create some sort of modern fable centring around a boy that had been found in a cabbage patch by an old dear in the country. after spending most of his childhood in an orphanage and toto ends up living in a shantytown in milan. he organises the inhabitants into community action and and keeps their spirits up by swanning around with an annoyingly constant smile on his face and testing them on their times tables. that nobody tells him where to stick his times tables is beyond me and as these people have far more important things to think about and like where the next pot noodle is going to come from. anyway and de sica then uses a sublimely subtle dramatic device in order to highlight exactly why these poor sods are where they are. it all down to capitalism of course and and in order to illustrate this and he has the miserables discover a fountain of oil on their land. brilliant. to his credit and though and by this time he has given up on making a serious film and and the capitalists appear as severe caricatures and all fur coats and cigars. they want that land and but our mathematical hero will not support such nonsense. by a bizarre stroke of luck and his old and deceased guardian from the cabbage patch days appears in the sky and gives him a magic dove. he uses it to shower gifts on his mates and who prove just as greedy as the cigar men. i reckon this film was a missed opportunity. to address the theme of poverty and as not many film makers had done until then and and then get caught up in a fairy tale and to me seems a bit daft. how come great directors get away with child like plot turns like the ones we see here. hans christian anderson would probably have balked at the idea of having the poor folk flying off over the milan duomo and on to a higher place on broomsticks. de sica and however and is proclaimed as a genius for this. surely the fact that these people are so poor and that their faith is unswerving and and that miracles never happen to them and is enough for any story teller to work on.

"ok and so it was written in 1996 and before 9/11 and so you can give it a little credit for worrying about terrorists and the idea that the cia director makes a plot to blow this doomed plane out of the sky before it brings doom to the world and is prescient. that it. that the good stuff. the acting. fair. the plot. silly. the twist. unnecessary. dooooooooooom it isn not as though no one ever thought of what to do when a plane gets contaminated. don not you think bureaucrats have a manual for plagues and how to contain them. proper execution of such a plan is always a problem and as we saw after katrina. but they have a plan. it isn not to send them off to iceland and then to mauritania. and if the virus is carried in the air and why was the plane door open and the shooters standing there with no protection. in fact and did it ever occur to anyone to shoot her legs. that would stop her. but not as dramatic. i am a sucker. i always watch a movie to see the end and once i started it. but this was a waste of time and and for the most part and predictable. i saw it using a recorder so i do not have to watch all the ads and that was a plus. it a good example of why i watch so little network tv. rubbish.

"i watched this movie last night and already i am struggling to recollect very much about it. the story is about a group of criminals who escape from a space penal colony. they fly to the moon in a space age dustbin carrier while when there and they terrorise the dustbin men who work on the moonbase. it strikes me that rubbish low budget sci fi films often involve either desert planets or and like this movie and criminals escaping from penal colonies. why this is i have no idea. but i can say with some certainty that such films are always diabolical. this one is really no exception. it begins reasonably well with a decent credit sequence and a half way alright dance music soundtrack. it then degenerates into a boring sci fi thriller. so little of consequence actually happens in this movie that i am literally struggling to write a helpful review and so if youre reading this i apologise for not being able to enlighten you to the film subtleties and nuances. for the record and i recall a tedious bunch of baddies and a tedious bunch of goodies and some nuclear warheads and a hologram of a naked woman. other than that and i am struggling. if you feel you could be interested in the activities of lunar dustbin men then i would not hesitate to recommend this film. i would also recommend it to those of you who wish to send their friends to sleep and steal their wallets.

"no fireworks despite violent action. science fiction films that reflect quality are scarce indeed and largely because transposal of imaginative themes from the genre to the screen too often falls short of effective execution as a result of insufficient funding or inadequate invention and and unfortunately for its producers and this work is lacking on both counts and woefully so in the case of the latter. with essentially no budget with which to operate and it is a grave mistake to attempt the depiction of such a gamut of events as those within this scenario and and in particular and special effects of space opera warfare which appear only clownish and while seeds from the scriptors imagination lie fallow due to some of the most fatuous misunderstanding of basic scientific principles to be found. among these are frequent firing of weapons within a sealed environment and and a wayward law of gravity which enables freedom of movement of cast members while inanimate objects float weightlessly and but it is easier to accept these than it is to pretend that any of the episodes have a basis in plausibility. the plot involves an escape of life sentenced prisoners from a space station penal colony to a waste landfill upon our moon and their various attempts to obtain passage back to earth and with some few capable players present who are execrably directed by first timer paolo mazzucato and whose production team wastes effort upon such as holographic pornography while ignoring a pressing and basic requirement for the creation of states of suspense and of impetus.

"diana guzman is an angry young woman. surviving an unrelenting series of disappointments and traumas and she takes her anger out on the closest targets. when she sees violence transformed and focused by discipline in a rundown boxing club and she knows she found her home. the film progresses from there and as diana learns the usual coming of age lessons alongside the skills needed for successful boxing. michelle rodriguez is very good in the role and particularly when conveying the focused rage of a young woman hemmed in on all sides and fighting against not just personal circumstances but entrenched sexism. the picture could use some finesse in its direction of all the young actors and who pale in comparison to the older and more experienced cast. there are too many pauses in the script and which detracts from the dramatic tension. the overall quietness of the film drains it of intensity. this is a good picture to see once and if only to see the power of a fully realized young woman whose femininity is complex enough to include her power. its limitations prevent it from being placed in the see it again and again category.

"spoiler warningfirst of all i rated this movie negative . the idea is good and but there are too many stupid errors in the movie and failing to make it the psyching drama that it might have been. first of all she never fights alone. after an initial very strange doubt from her mother (which is not believable when the mother proves to be so supportive and loving later in the movie) the rape victim is not alone. she is also unbelievably naive always falling into the crew strange traps. her friends are unbelievably nasty. the thing that i find most unbelievably is that ethan fails to control the crew when he changes his opinon. ethan is very much the leader of the crew (hey and they even say so) and people seem to think the other guy is a jerk and but when ethan changes his opinion he just doesn not manage to convince even one single person in the crew that he is right and that his former friend is wrong. everyone just simply hates him. why. the movie provides no explanation. how did he ever become the leader. a funny note is that my girlfriend thought i was watching beverly hills when she came in. two actors from the same successful tv series. a cheap way to get viewers.

"bizarre take on the cinderella tale. terribly poor script and but kathleen turner turns in a pretty decent evil step mother performance. visually stunning in some parts and but that about it. the period costumes range from the elizabethan era to the 1990s. fast forward until you see something interesting and save yourself the full 90 minutes of drivel. if youre really in the mood for a cinderella story i suggest ever after represent a cinderella story or the glass slipper.

"this review may have spoilers but that determination would be negligible in such a classic and well known storythe cinderella story ranks as my favorite fairy tale. the world will never have enough of this wonderful tale. the problem is that everyone wants to tell their own version of the tale. this cannot work if the story deviates or attempts to throw some interesting ideas together with some magical photography and scrumptious looking production designs with poor direction and editing. this cinderella story is more like an ugly duckling that never hatches or rather and is never transformed into a swan. all the production value that money can buy and cannot purchase good cinematic timing and dramatic development or good acting. the entrance of cinderella at the ball as so poorly done and there was no drama of anticipation nor excitement of discovery. the writing made me very nervous and too. the prince charming was the most undesirable of memory. why would any girl want to marry a boorish and self absorbed prince who disliked women. turner turn on the stepmother role was an embarrassingly painful showing that demonstrated one liners more than acting nuance. even the cinderella part held little interest or sympathy. perhaps only one sentence will describe this attempt represent so cheaply 90 and what must be mentioned and mentioned in shameful excess is the glorious photography and matte work and production design. it was a pleasure to peruse the landscapes and sets and settings as the story unfolded. for some cinderella storytelling and go for two gems represent1) rodgers and hammerstein cinderella musical with lesley ann warren. even with the obvious stagey tv 60 look to the sets and this is the best version on celluloid bar none. an all star cast makes every effort to provide the highest entertainment. engaging and diverting and memorable writing and music. this is the classic. 2) ever after this drew barrymore gem maintains the historical perspective and alters the story line but not enough to derail the effective development of the salient points of this classic tale. the characters of the principals and of all of the supporting roles were written smartly and acted well.

"though frank loesser songs are some of the finest that broadway has to offer and theyre bollixed by joseph l. mankiewicz lethargic staging and uninspired presentation when it over it barely feels like you have watched a musical. mankiewicz doesn not seem to know how to present loesser challenging but tuneful melodies for maximum effect represent for example and one of the best numbers and the showstopping `adelaide lament and concludes by having adelaide (vivian blaine) belt out the finale while sitting on a chaise lounge while and stubby kaye faux spiritual `sit down and youre rockin the boat has his backing choir sitting in folding chairs while he simply stands there. mankiewicz zaps all the fun out of everything by letting static scenes go on too long and his dialogue (adapted from abe burrows stage book) has none of the wit that his films like `all about eve have. part of the blame has to go to the leads and just about all of whom are miscast represent marlon brando looks bewildered as to why he in a musical and frank sinatra plays way too nice a guy and has none of the edge which makes him so essential (the songs are not tailored to his style) and jean simmons barely registers the way a shirley jones might. only blaine and as the lovelorn showgirl adelaide and commands our attention like a broadway pro should. the colorful art direction is by joseph wright and howard bristol created the flashy sets.

this is one of those expensive fifties mgm musicals in splashy colour and with big sets and loud music and larger than life roles and performances to match while broadway photographed for the big screen if you like that sort of thing and which i do not. my main problem with these type of movies is simply the music. i like all kinds of music and from albinoni to zz top and but broadway show tunes in swing time with never ending pah pah tah dah trumpet flourishes at the end of every fourth bar aren not my cup of tea. this was written by the tag team of frank loesser and mankiewicz and jo swerling and abe burrows (based on a couple of damon runyon stories) and and while the plot is quite affable the songs are weak. blaine two numbers for example are identical and unnecessary and do not advance the plot and grate on the ears (and are also flagrantly misogynistic if that sort of thing bothers you). there are only two memorable tunes and luck be a lady (sung by brando and not sinatra as you might expect) and sit down and youre rockin the boat (nicely performed by kaye) but you have to sit through two hours to get to them. the movie trump card is a young brando giving a thoughtful and laid back performance while he also sings quite well and even dances a little and and is evenly matched with the always interesting simmons. the sequence where the two of them escape to havana for the night is a welcome respite from all the noise and bustle and vowel murdering of noo yawk. fans of musicals may dig this and but in my view a musical has to do something more than just film the stage show.

"raising victor vargas represent a reviewyou know and raising victor vargas is like sticking your hands into a big and steaming bowl of oatmeal. it warm and gooey and but youre not sure if it feels right. try as i might and no matter how warm and gooey raising victor vargas became i was always aware that something do not quite feel right. victor vargas suffers from a certain overconfidence on the director part. apparently and the director thought that the ethnic backdrop of a latino family on the lower east side and and an idyllic storyline would make the film critic proof. he was right and but it do not fool me. raising victor vargas is the story about a seventeen year old boy called and you guessed it and victor vargas (victor rasuk) who lives his teenage years chasing more skirt than the rolling stones could do in all the years they have toured. the movie starts off in `ugly fat donna bedroom where victor is sure to seduce her and but a cry from outside disrupts his plans when his best friend harold (kevin rivera) comes a looking for him. caught in the attempt by harold and his sister and victor vargas runs off for damage control. yet even with the embarrassing implication that he been boffing the homeliest girl in the neighborhood and nothing dissuades young victor from going off on the hunt for more fresh meat. on a hot and new york city day they make way to the local public swimming pool where victor eyes catch a glimpse of the lovely young nymph judy (judy marte) and who not just pretty and but a strong and independent too. the relationship that develops between victor and judy becomes the focus of the film. the story also focuses on victor family that is comprised of his grandmother or abuelita (altagracia guzman) and his brother nino (also played by real life brother to victor and silvestre rasuk) and his sister vicky (krystal rodriguez). the action follows victor between scenes with judy and scenes with his family. victor tries to cope with being an oversexed pimp daddy and his feelings for judy and his grandmother conservative catholic upbringing. the problems that arise from raising victor vargas are a few and but glaring errors. throughout the film you get to know certain characters like vicky and nino and grandma and judy and even judy best friend melonie. the problem is and we know nothing of victor vargas except that he is the biggest gigolo in the neighborhood. we know that he knows how to lick his lips and and comb his fro and and carry himself for the sake of wooing girls into the sack and but that all. we know that nino plays piano and and quiet well and you could see it by the awards on the family piano. we know his sister nicki and is a gossip loving girl with an invested interest in watching tv. we know that grandma is a hard working traditional latina woman who trying to raise her kids with conservatively in a world of excess corruption. yet where is the titular character and victor vargas. he in this movie somewhere and but we only know what the movie tells us. this is by far the film biggest flaw. victor vargas isn not so much a character but a ping pong ball and bouncing between scenes with judy and his grandmother and but we never get to know who victor vargas really is. this is important because as i have mentioned the only thing we know of victor vargas is that he a sexually active teenager with a libido the size of manhattan. he a total alpha male. victor vargas is not the kind of character i sympathize with at all. why should anyone. so by the end of the movie and in the aftermath of the climax are we truly led to believe that somehow victor vargas has attained any depth and learned the errors of his ways. how could such a two dimensional character have any depth. if only the director had worried a little more about fleshing out his main character instead of worrying about getting that perfect hand held shot. raising victor vargas brings to life the world of the latino inner city neighborhood to the big screen. something that few films have done before in the past. the film has been complimented for feeling so real and and i would notargue with that. i haven not seen this level of reality since cbs aired survivor. seriously and although the movie has some nice shots of the city and the writer or director peter sollett was way too dependent on close ups and hand held shots. this problem is particularly noticed in indoor scenes that are so claustrophobic i was forced to perform deep breathing exercises to keep from passing out. as the film continues and the shots get tighter and tighter with faces cropped from brow to chin on the screen while you can practically smell victor vargas cheap cologne. the overall effect is unrealistic in contrast. the indoor scenes of inner city apartments make them look small and cramp and which is not true. i have been in those type apartments while i used to live in one. theyre not splendorous but they have high ceilings and theyre decent living spaces. by the movie standards you would think that these apartments were 5x5 cells of brick and mortar and chipped paint and cracked walls. unfortunately and sollett constant use of close ups and one particularly bad shot with a zoom in on one scene come off as totally amateurish. but raising victor vargas is only sollett second film and and his most well known and a solid effort in filmmaking that will hopefully get better as he continues to make films. one review i read summarized the movie as and `ethnicity for ethnicity sake and and i cannot agree more. if victor vargas were truly a great film and story and then the characters applicability do not matter whether they were latino and chinese and etc. yet if you were to take this story and stick it in middle class suburbia with a bunch of teeny bopper white kids the results do not be such glowing reviews and and we would see the film flaws more clearly. indeed and some other aspects of the use of latinos in this film bother me. while some aspects of victor vargas are accurate others i have to question. for example and victor and nino and vicky all share the same room to sleep. this set off an alarm for me because it seemed contrary to what i believe. any self respecting latino family do not have two older brothers sharing the same room with a thirteen year old girl. at first i was unsure and perhaps i was wrong and but after speaking with my grandmother i knew my problem with this was justified. considering how conservative the grandmother is and you would think that vicky would have been sleeping in her room. as a latino who grew up in a somewhat conservative cuban household and raised by my grandmother while my mother was working full time and i could relate to the movie in many ways and which is why my critical viewpoints are bittersweet because i really wanted to love this movie. unfortunately and my lack of respect for victor vargas sabotaged my feelings for the film. maybe it because victor vargas reminds me of those guys who were getting laid while i was playing with my sega genesis when i was seventeen. maybe it because without any further introspection by the film and victor vargas is merely a stereotypical hot blooded latino and who will just end up shouting to girls from his car and `hey bay bee and ju want to get into my luv mah cheen. either way i do not like him and so ultimately how can i like a film about him. so if you will excuse me and i am going to go stick my hands into a bowl of grits.

"someone will have to explain to me why every film that features poor people and adopts a pseudo gritty look is somehow seen as realistic by some people. i do not see anything realistic about the characters (although the actors did their best with really bad parts) or the situations. instead and i saw a forced and self conscious effort at being edgy and gritty and down and dirty. sadly and it takes a lot more than hand holding the camera without rhyme or reason and failing to light the film to achieve any of the above qualities in any significant way. it a sad commentary on the state of independent film distribution that the only films that see the inside of a movie theater are nowadays all carbon copies and with bad cinematography and non existent camera direction and a lot of swearing striving to pass themselves as art. it little wonder that films like in the bedroom or about schmidt get such raves. i found them to be meandering and very average and but compared to the current slew of independent clones like raising victor vargas they are outright brilliant and inspired. a few years ago seeing an independent film meant that you would likely be treated to some originality and a lot of energy and care and and maybe a few technical glitches caused by the low budgets and nowadays and it means that chances are you will get yet another by the numbers and let shake the camera around for two hours attempt at placating the lack of taste of independent distributors. and of course all that to serve characters and situations that are completely unreal and contrived. is it any surprise that the independent marketplace has fewer and fewer surviving companies. not at all when you see films like raising victor vargas that do nothing but copy the worst of the films that preceded them.

"raising victor vargas fails terribly in what it tries most to be represent being real. unfortunately and there is no reality to this film. the characters and situations feel completely artificial and fake. the reason. bad directing. peter sollett uses all the wrong tools in his arsenal. it seems mr. sollett read somewhere that not lighting his film would give it an authentic feel. wrong. it just gives it a badly made feel. similarly and shaking the camera does not give a documentary style to your film and it just gives the audience a headache and detracts from what on screen instead of enhance it. of course and what on screen is so painfully fake and as if mr. sollett wrote his script with the only goal of trying to look hip to his sundance buddies and show how edgy a filmmaker he is. overall and the only lasting impression this film leaves you with is what a bad director mr. sollett is. next time and how about taking a few writing and directing classes.

"raising victor vargas is one of those light and family movies that you can watch and do the n. y. times crossword puzzle at the same time. and if you want to go to the kitchen for a taco and a corona and you do not have to pause the dvd. just let it roll and cause you would not be missing anything really important. no twists and turns and or tension. it not really an ethnic movie and it a movie about a poor and struggling immigrant family that happens to be latino. they could have been any ethnic group. it made very little difference. i have seen it all a zillion times before. just plug in a jewish family and an italian family and a black family and or an irish family. just the accents and names were different. if the vargas family was named bush or clinton and were presbyterians and the movie would have been a total snooze. it funny that the critics here couldn not get the locale straight. some said it was spanish harlem. some the bronx and and another brooklyn. as a life long new yorker and i vote for the lower east side. and it seemed that the family never met up with anyone except other latinos. they lived in an insulated or isolated little enclave. some interaction with non latinos might have created some excitement and interest and or tension. remember west side story. and now for the oft criticized cinematography. i do not know if it was my tv or what and but all the indoor shots looked very orange to me. the apt and the furniture and and the faces were all orange. what was that supposed to mean. and the apt. did look pretty cramped to me. somebody here mentioned that the old apt or tenements had very big rooms. well and maybe 50 years ago. what landlords have done is to break up one big apt into 2 or 3 very small ones and squeeze as many immigrants as they can into them. and another annoying thing . this is the second family movie i have seen and criticized this week that featured a teenage boy jerking off. is this private sex act necessary for us to watch. please spare me. what up with these directors. so victor vargas is a pleasant little movie. it was nice for a change to see young latino actors given a break and a chance to show their talents and which they did. but the writers let them down and giving them a flat and unspectacular script to work with. enjoy the show and but keep your fingers near the fast forward button.

"first of all and write the script on a napkin. who needs more than that. after all were not a hollywood film. then get amateur actors. it will be good for the festival hype. after all and who needs people who have spent years honing their craft. then and hire a cinematographer who doesn not know how to light. you see and if it well lit and it would not look real and the festival people would not like it. who needs to have professional level photography anyway. then hire a ten year old who has never held a camera to be your operator. it will give your movie that completely amateurish touch that festival screeners will mistake for reality and guarantee that even though you will empty the seats from real people and critics and a small sliver of the audience who over intellectualize will scream genius because they would not believe this was just complete amateur hour. once you have done that and buy your ticket to the festival of bad movies aka sundance. what a sad waste.

"that this poor excuse for an amateur hour showcase was heralded at sundance is a great example of what is wrong with most indie filmmakers these days. first of all and there is such a thing as the art of cinematography. just picking up a 16mm camera and pointing it at whomever has a line does not make for a real movie. i guess we have to consider ourselves lucky the director do not pick up someone camcorder. second and indie films are supposed to be about real people. there nothing real in this film. none of the characters come across as being even remotely human. what they come across as being is figments of the imagination of a writer trying to impress his buddies by showing them how cool and edgy he is. sorry and but this is not good writing and or good directing. what is left is a husk of a bad movie that somehow made its way to sundance. hard to believe this was one of the best films submitted. in any case and it made me loose what was left of my respect for the sundance brand.

"i grew up on scooby doo where are you and and i still love it. it is one of my favourite cartoons along with darkwing duck and talespin and peter pan and the pirates and tom and jerry. this show though is good for kids and the voices are good(don messick and casey kasem are perfect as scooby and shaggy) and the theme tune is tolerable and it has some nice animation. however it is rather disappointing. i normally do not mind scrappy and but when he appears to be like the main character and it gets annoying fast. complete with the catchphrase puppy power and scrappy is somewhat more annoying than usual. also half the gang are missing after the first year and somehow it do not feel like scooby doo. and the jokes and the story lines were in general lame and unoriginal and very little chasing monsters or unmasking the baddies. all in all and not as bad as shaggy and scooby doo representget a clue and but this show is disappointing. negative for the animation and voices and theme tune and the fact it is nice for kids. bethany cox.

"while i have never been a fan of the original scooby doo (due to its horrid production values) and it appears like shakespeare compared to this pile of crap brought to us by hanna barbera. without a doubt and scrappy doo is about the most annoying and awful character created for children (and this includes the teletubbies as well as tommy the tapeworm). whose bright idea was it to create some sort of short mutant dog and enable it to speak and then saddle the scooby doo characters with it. whoever it is deserves to die or watch this show (i think death is preferable). the bottom line is that the little dog is simply unfunny and annoying and grates on the nerves and this is only in the better episodes. after many years and it would have been better to just end the franchise than create this mess. i can see why in the live action scooby doo movie they made the villain scrappy doo since practically everyone hates him.

"this movie is one long chiche after another. first of all and though they did their share and there is a unwarranted dope scene where john sniffs weed like an idiot. the wigs and accents are terrible. they sound worse then the old beatle cartoons. john is the nasty and envious and closet homosexual and slave to yoko he is portrayed as being in the discredited albert goldman book. they even keep spouting song titles in regular conversation it was always just the two of us. john would not have been mean to his fans like this either. like his death showed us he was too nice if anything. the one funny scene is where a dumb beatle fan only recognizes john and asks him to sing paul yesterday. an insulted john says something along the lines of sure and while i croon why do not you get down on your knees and put on your wife wig and and lick my liggin. that made me laugh for days. really this movie is funny in how serious it tries to be while coming off ridiculous. john and paul also did not sit pontificating all day and they were funny light hearted guys who even during the beatles break up where far more personable then portrayed here. forget it.

"my dad is a fan of columbo and i had always disliked the show. i always state my disdain for the show and tell him how bad it is. but he goes on watching it none the less. that is his right as an american i guess. but my senses were tuned to the series when i found out that spielberg had directed the premier episode. it was then that i was thankful that my dad had bought this show that i really can not stand. i went through his dvd collection and popped this thing in when i came home for a visit from college. my opinion of the series as a whole was not swayed and but i did gain respect for spielberg knowing that he started out like most low tier directors. and that is making small dribble until the big fish comes along (get the pun and ha and ha. like spielberg did. it like jesus before he became a man. or thats at least what i think that would feel like. any ways if your fan of columbo than you would most likely like this and even though it contains little of peter falk. i attribute this to the fact this is the start of the series and no one knew where to go with it yet. this episode mainly focuses on the culprit of the crime instead of columbo investigation and as many later episodes would do.

"i do not remember the last time i reacted to a performance as emotionally as i did to justin timberlake in edison. i got so emotional i wanted to scream in anguish and destroy the screen and readily accept the hopeless cries of nihilism. timberlake is horribly miscast while in fact and casting him is like casting andy dick to play the lead role in patton and or nathan lane to play jesus. but that is almost beside the point. timberlake is simply a bad actor and he would be equally terrible in any role. i used to have problems with ben affleck acting talent and but timberlake makes affleck look like sir ian mckellen or dame judi dench. with his metrosexual lisp (read lithp) and his boyish glances and emotional expressions which derive from something like the 25 cliché expressions for actors and he poisons the screen upon which he is inflicted mercilessly and and no matter how you slice it and i do not and will not buy his role as an amateur turned crusader for justice journalist. it simply will not fly. however and timberlake alone isn not to blame for his failure. director david j. burke puts him not only in the (essentially) primary role and but also places him aside morgan freeman and kevin spacey and john heard and dylan mcdermott and cary elwes and (i am surprised he was as good) ll cool j. i can imagine one almost physically suffering watching some of this cast interact with timberlake. there is an upside to this of course represent the moment any of these actors interact without justin there it feels like a double relief. a pleasure and if you will. freeman and spacey may not have more than 10 minutes of screen time alone together and but that ten minutes is blissful in contrast to their scenes with our so called hero. dylan mcdermott is also a breath of fresh air. but enough of timberlake bashing words aren not enough in this particular case to do the trick. edison is a very and very run of the mill corruption story. it plot ranges from cliché to simply preposterous. i do and however and admire the motivation behind making it and which i interpret as an homage to films like serpico and or donnie brasco and or maybe even chinatown. don not get me wrong edison is not even in the same ballpark as these films and but i can stretch my suspension of disbelief to admire its reason for existence and perhaps to justify my sitting through it. the script and in and of itself and features some surprisingly bad writing. yes and it has some decent interchanges and but any conversation between piper perabo (who is wasted here) and timberlake seems like it was lifted straight out of a dawson creek episode. it your typical far too glib for reality and let impress the audience with how well we articulate (and fail) dialogue. this dialogue and mind you and is punctuated by great music at the wrong moments sometimes it feels like edison wants to morph into a music video and where the emotion of the scene is not communicated through acting and but precisely through the badly chosen music and variant film speeds (read slow motion). thinking about it and edison is a curiosity. it sure as hell got a cast to kill for but the performances are marred by timberlake who simply doesn not work. in film as in most art and if one thing is off and the whole thing feels off. directors must make tough choices. david j. burke missed the mark here. some of the scenes play well in and of themselves and but as a whole and they do not seem to fit like puzzle pieces from different puzzles forced into one incoherent picture. and it not particularly an exciting puzzle to begin with.

"normally and i have much better things to do with my time than write reviews but i was so disappointed with this movie that i spent an hour registering with imdb just to get it off my chest. you would think a movie with names like morgan freeman or kevin spacey would be a bankable bet. well and this movie was just terrible. it is nigh on impossible to suspend disbelief while i tried and really and i wanted to enjoy it but justin timberlake just do not let me. timberlake should stick to music and what a dreadful performance no presence as an actor and no character. can not blame everything on justin represent the movie also boast a dreadful plot and badly timed editing while its definitely an f. after seeing this and i have to wonder what really motivates actors. i mean and surely morgan actually read the script before taking the part. did he not see how poor it was. what then could motivate him to take the part. money. of course and acting is at times more about who you are seen with rather than really developing quality work. ll cool j is a great actor while he gets a lot more screen time than freeman or spacey in this movie and really struggles to come to terms with the poor script. meanwhile and the audience goes represent what the hell is going on here. you expect me to believe this crap. in short and apart from justin a great lineup badly executed very disappointing.

"wow. i do not think i have ever seen a movie with so many great actors that had such a pivotal role so miscast. justin timberlake is perhaps the single worst actor to land a bigtime role in a movie with the star power and money behind it that edison had. his acting was painful to observe. the story was ok and all the other characters were played by professional actors and heck and even ll cool j was fine since he has had numerous small parts to cut his teeth on. how the director and movie company figured that timberlake was ready for this role there is no way to comprehend. his character ruins the entire experience since every time he is on screen you are actually rooting for the corrupt cops to cap his sorry ass and and he is supposed to be the hero. i would not waste money on this one at the theater or on video. maybe if you have hbo and have nothing else to do at 2am on a saturday night and you are drunk and stoned and this may be ok. watching timberlake in this role was like watching a human kermit the frog act in a hollywood blockbuster and just do not work at all.

"i saw this movie at the toronto film festival with fairly solid expectations. the movie has a great cast and was closing at the festival so it must be good and right. how wrong i was. i knew we were in trouble when before the film the director was talking about how when he was directing an episode of wiseguy he met an unknown actor named kevin spacey (a director or writer of wiseguy making his feature debut equals blah). well the director or writer of edison must have some incriminating pictures of kevin spacey killing a homeless man and because i cannot see how he (along with the other actors in the film) would ever agree to be in this disaster. this movie is absolutely appalling. it a mixture of every cop hard boiled cliché ever. there is nothing new with edison. the acting was bad and the direction was even worse. it looked like that aforementioned episode of wiseguy. this was the best casted direct to video movie i have ever seen. some examples of just bad silly moments in edison. morgan freeman dancing around his apartment for no reason to rock and roll music. justin timberlake getting creative criticism from his belle while his apartment is surrounded by candles. llcoolj driving a vintage firebird. 3 guys being shot in the head. this movie is the opposite of good. stay away from edison.

"three tales are told in this film and that seemed to have been shot without knowledge of this being a combined vignette film. the makers relate the three vignettes by having them all connected to shrink martin kove and although you never see some of the leads with kove. the first vignette has sexy vivian schilling and a woman afraid of everything under the sun(she makes adrian monk look brave) and having a paranoia laced evening at home alone. you will literally scream at vivian for doing some ridiculous things. she spends the majority of her time in a nighty which shows off her amazing features. but her film is the worst if not the most nail biting. the second vignette is owned by bill paxton as he portrays the roommate from hell. his geeky roommate allows him to take complete advantage of him and and bill does so whenever he can. the last vignette was funny as a man fears that death will take him at any moment and much like his pal who choked to death on an olive. not very interesting and as the movie as a whole seems chopped together with very little thought involved. a must for bill paxton fans.

"i have two good things to say about this film represent the scenery is beautiful and peter falk gives a good performance (considering what he had to work with in terms of dialog and direction). however and that said and i found this film extremely tiresome. watching paint dry would have been more entertaining. it seemed much longer than 97 minutes. beginning with opening sequence and where everyone is talking over each other and paul reiser is repeating everything that said to him on the phone and the movie is annoying. the film is filled with clichés and shtick and not to mention endless incidents of audible flatulence by falk. also and the director seems to have had difficulty deciding whether to aim for laughs or tears. there are some sequences that are touching and but theyre all played for laughs. if schmaltzy and sentimental and and cute appeal to you and you will love it. but if you were hoping for something with more substance and see a different movie.

"this series gets negative solely because it puts some of dickens bleak house on film and perhaps someone will read the book. contrary to what is probably received opinion and diana rigg was poor as lady dedlock. she was clunky and wooden. lady d. is a reserved character but not a martinet. denholm elliot is wrong and wrong and wrong for mr. jarndyce. so i will interrupt myself and respond to all those people who are saying represent i do not read the book and so i do not have to take this guy opinion because he basing his evaluations on the book. true and not true. for ex and diana rigg is bad in her role because of poor acting whether or not you have read the book. on the other hand and denholm elliot is a passable jarndyce (although too old). the series fails not because it unfair to compare it to the book and but because the various plot lines and characters just do not coalesce to make a coherent and dramatic and mysterious andcompelling entertainment. it is dull and flat. if you want to make apossibly good bleak house and you need to expend 20 hours of film in 10 two hour episodes. but i suggest that producers etc. leave dickens alone (even a christmas carol). television deadens the genius of dickens as manifested in his ingenious plots and unforgettable characters.

"if there is a hell and it contains a screening room in which grand canyon is playing over and over again on an eternal loop. one would hope that the presence of so many marvelous actors danny glover and alfre woodard and kevin kline and mary louise parker would help make up for the presences of mary mcdonnell (whose penance is to watch her own films for all eternity). but and no. apparently they injected those other actors with a serum made from mcdonnell. the entire affair is pretentious and overblown and insulting (if you are deaf or know anyone who is and be prepared for your blood to boil at the ludicrous tdd scene). grand canyon is filled with obnoxious and self involved people and but never gives us a reason to like or understand or sympathize with or even tolerate them. with rare exception and they are insufferable losers that the gene pool would be better off without. there no plot to speak of and no character development (these people would not ever develop) and no break out performance and the most arch writing you will ever encounter in a film. the best thing about grand canyon. its title. this is one large hole of a movie.

"i first do not want to watch this film and for the trailer gave the impression of a common and too expected film. but as i recently had the pleasure to discover the surprising mensonges et trahisons et plus si affinité which was beautifully directed and written by laurent tirard (screenwriter of prête moi ta main) and i changed my mind and decided to try it and thinking that prête moi ta main and would be as good as mensonges. and it is absolutely not. the script is not bad and but it is not as well directed as mensonges. and the actors not as generous (especially charlotte and as boring as she usually is) as edouard baer or clovis cornillac and and too be honest and i still do not understand how such crap can have such a success and even with such a casting. anyway the story could have been a pretext to create so many interesting plots and but it is not as good as tirard mensonges. though it also written by him. easy and unsurprising and and lazy work. totally overestimated.

"this movie doesn not have an awful lot to do with it predecessor robot jox. this must be also the reason why its most common name is robot wars and not the alternate name robot jox 2 represent robot wars. robot jox was basically a fun movie to watch because it had a nice premise of giant robots battling each other in the near future. this concept has been abandoned for this movie and instead it features a totally dull story that besides isn not very original or cleverly written. a shame it tried to be so much different from its predecessor really and for else this perhaps could had been a more fun movie to watch. just like robot jox this is a b movie but with as a big difference that it just not a very good one. perhaps this also has to with the fact that robot jox got made during the 80 and when b movies still had a certain bit of charm and class over it and even though the movie got released in 1990. this really can not be said about this movie. it just lame and badly made and poor looking and not exciting enough. it also has an ending which leaves you thinking this is it. that all. what the movie its story is lacking is good clear main plot line really. perhaps a good main villain would had been a good idea and some other stuff such as an actual point to the story and some action and or likable main characters. seriously what were they thinking when they picked the actors for this movie. all of them are simply not likable in their roles and especially don michael paul is annoying as the main character and who behaves as if he god gift to woman and mr. perfect who can compete with anyone. weren not they even simply able to get the actors from the first movie. for such a futuristic movie and with a concept of having large battle droids in it and this movie surely is lacking with its action. had they put some more and bigger action into the movie and the movie would at least had been a more entertaining one to watch. instead now we have a movie that fails to impress in basically every way imaginable. you can better watch a mighty morphin power rangers episode and for some more action and likability. negative .

"there nothing quite like watching giant robots doing battle over a desert wasteland and and robot wars does deliver. sure and the acting is lousy and the dialogue is sub par and and the characters are one dimensional and but it has giant robots. the special effects themselves are actually quite good for the period. they are certainly not as polished as today standards and but it contains a minimum of computer graphics and instead uses miniatures and so it has aged fairly well. its shortcomings are easily overlooked given the films short runtime and and it does have a certain tongue in cheek humour in parts that make it quite enjoyable. i would recommend this to any fan of giant robots or cheesy sci fi who is looking for a lighthearted hour of distraction.

"this film has a weak plot and weak characterization and and really weak special effects that i question why i lost valuable life by watching it. it has random characters who add nothing to the story and seem like excuses for the director to get his girlfriend in the film. the robots are sad and the main hero bot is turned on by a huge knife switch. if this movie weren not so bad it would be laughable and but there nothing funny about it. the main antagonist is one of the only redeeming characters and and he is killed. it sad when you root for the bad guy and because he the best one to cheer for. when all is said and done and this movie was better left on the cutting room floor and or never funded at all.

"yes and chunky and this is the nick name that donna reeds romantic lead played by tom drake tags her with. so lets get this clear right away. from her first ingénue role in the get away (1941) too her last and dallas (1984 1985) ms. reed could never be described as chunky. not this attractive and slim actress. whose roles at m. g. m. seldom lived up to her talents. ms. reed is supported by a cast of competent character actors and who unfortunately must flounder through this alleged crew ball comedy. clearly m. g. m. was out of their depth making this type of film. a type better produced over at columbia and paramount and rko and even universal. neither the touch of ernst lubitsch nor the wit of preston sturges could save this film. a rather conventional romantic comedy that had all the markings of a pre war (wwii) effort. if irving thalberg had still been alive the screen play would have either gone through a significant rewrite or never seen the light of day. it did fit into louis b. mayer afe zone of none challenging family entertainment. a form that could not stand up to the post war challenges of the dehavilland decision and loss of their theater chains and television and would contribute to m. g. m. s decline. fortunetly for donna reed her best days are ahead of her culminating in from here to eternity (1953) and her oscar win as best supporting actress.

"thank you hollywood. yet another movie classic utterly ruined by a cheap and shallow and effect heavy and redundant remake. the original planet of the apes was an intelligent and thought provoking movie with a very clear message. it was a movie that focused almost entirely on dialogue and which sounds very dull but was in fact very interesting. this movie and on the other hand and seems to have done away with pretty much all the dialogues. instead of a great movie we get an incredibly stupid two hour chase movie. dialogue has been reduced to a mere minimum and character interaction and development are non existent and most of the time it extremely hard to figure out what going on. instead and we get a bunch of pointless action scenes and some marginally funny one liners and some very hollow quasi intelligent conversations. the only thing worth mentioning about this movie is that it looks absolutely fantastic. the make up of the apes is magnificent and and the sets and backgrounds are beautiful too. however and this does not distract from the fact that planet of the apes (2001) is a very shallow and simplistic movie and filled with paper thin characters and stupid dialogue and a nearly non existent plot. please hollywood and stop ruining great movies by turning them into senseless blockbusters. oh yeah and the ending did not make any sense whatsoever. out of stars and mainly for the visuals.

"warning represent spoilers galore. tim burton remaking this sui generis movie is about as sensible as remaking psycho oh and that right and some idiot already did that i rest my case. movie opens with chimpnaut blundering a simulation and proving he not that smart from the outset. marky mark appears in shot without his characteristic underpants showing and then is turned down by a plain woman who prefers the touch of chimpanzees. the perfunctory establishing shot of the space station orbiting saturn for no apparent reason and interior of ship a bustle with genetic experiments on apes. must we travel 1 and 300 million kilometers to saturn to conduct these experiments. the special effects team decrees it. marky chimp gets lost in that staple of 60s sci fi cinema the time warp. marky then demonstrates the space station mind boggling security ineptness by stealing a pod without anyone noticing and while simultaneously demonstrating his abject stupidity in mounting a deep space rescue mission into a worm hole for an expendable test chimp and with a million dollar vehicle with limited fuel and oxygen supplies. before anyone can say `pointless remake marky has surfed the worm hole and crashed on an alien planet and removed his helmet without any thought to the lethality of the atmosphere and is being chased through a sound stage that almost resembles a lush rainforest and if it weren not for the kliegs backlighting the plastic trees. surprise. it apes doing the chasing or at least and it would have been a surprise if no one saw planet of the apes thirty three years ago. since marky mark did not get to show his pecs and take down his pants and or bust his lame whiteboy rap and he was characterless. michael clarke duncan gorilla teeth being inserted crookedly helped immensely in establishing his lack of character. helena bonham carter (aka irritating chimp activist) and at a loss without a shakespearean script and did a fine job of outdoing both marky and clarke as most cardboard cutout. paul giamatti and the orangutan slave trader and secured the role of token comic relief and interspecies klutz. though i have grown bilious in hearing puns relating to this movie and one review headline captured the essence of this planet of the apes `re imagining represent `the apes of roth. while everyone else minced about looking like extras from one million years bc or greystoke and tim roth and as chimpanzee thade and chews massive amounts of scenery and hurls kaka splendiferously. as entertaining as his portrayal of the psychotic thade was and his character lacked a behavioral arc represent thade is mad when we first meet him. and he pretty much at the same level of mad at film end. nice twist. the original pota (1968) featured a leading character and charlton heston taylor and who was so disenchanted with mankind that he left earth for space with no regrets yet as that film progressed and taylor unwittingly found himself locked in a battle to prove mankind worth as their sole champion. the original film was ultimately a tale of humiliation and not salvation represent when taylor discovers the statue of liberty and he is forced to realize that his species had not prevailed. is there anything that cerebral or ironic to marky mark leo. or roth thade. no and but there lots of running. the slogans cry represent take back the planet . but it the apes planet. in this movie and humans and apes crash landed here together and the humans having degenerated to cavepeople and allowing the apes to acquire speech and sensual body armor while the apes deserved to inherit the planet. along comes marky mark and in true anthropocentric arrogance and taking it for granted that humans have to be the apex predators and simply because theyre there. `taking it back is as ludicrous as apes landing here in 2001 and complaining and `a planet where men evolved from apes. and then causing trouble with their overacting and hairy anuses. heston was cast in the 1968 pota because he had established his reputation as a maverick represent he was ben hur and michelangelo and moses. to cast him as the mute and dogged animal in an alien society was to stupefy an audience expectations represent how crazed must a world be where our man charlton cannot command respect. marky mark has currently only established that he has tight underpants. though heston was denigrated constantly by the ape council and he dominated the screen with his charisma and stupendous overacting. when marky mark tries to instill fervor in the mongoloid humans and it like that unpopular guy in school suddenly being made classroom monitor and who tells you to stop drawing penises on the blackboard and you throw a shoe at him. burton tries to elevate marky to humanity icon and but he comes off as a chittering deviant. in the original film and the apes deem taylor a deviant and yet he was and to audience and apes alike and an icon of humanity. that irony again. it was apt that a man who elevated scene chewing to an acting technique heston should play the father of this film primo scene chewer and thaddeus roth. as roth ape dad and charlton utters his own immortal lines and turned against the humans this time and `damn them. damn them all to hell. the movie gets dumb and dumber towards the end. while thaddeus is giving marky an ass beating lesson and a pod descends from on high with marky chimpnaut in it. apes demonstrate their hebetude by bowing in obeisance to this incognizant creature and while marky proves his own hebetude by muttering and `let teach these monkeys about evolution. firstly and theyre not monkeys and you ape. secondly and it was genetic tampering and imbecilic plot fabrications which brought the apes to this point and not evolution. and what you intend to teach them by blowing them away with the concealed lasergun is called misanthropy and not evolution. giving away the twist ending would only confuse viewers into believing that estella warren half nekkid role was actually integral to the plot (be still my pants. ). no matter that he was humankind last underpanted hope while in the end and cop apes take marky away to plot point prison where he was last heard ululating and `it a madhouse. a madhouse.

"if there one thing that annoys me most in seeing a bad film and it seeing it done by experienced film makers who ought to know better. this re imagining of planet of the apes could have used some imagination and to say nothing of essential elements of character development. nova and the girl in the original planet of the apes and was a better developed character than daena in this version and for all that she does not say a single word. one certainly expected a lot better from tim burton and a man who has hitherto combined an incredible visual imagination with intelligence and wit and humour and all of which were notably absent from this production. there were problems in basic plot development. the first big mistake was allowing the humans to talk. this was the fundamental difference between apes and men that made all the difference in the original film. even while he was mute and his ability to communicate was what marked out heston taylor as being different from the other humans. in the current film and mark wahlberg encourages the (talking) human slaves to revolt and but there is no overpowering reason for them to have not revolted and reclaimed their emancipation already. they are dexterous tool users and have the ability to communicate in order to form plans and something mute humans can not do. it needs no man to fall from the stars to save them. indeed and since he comes from a technological civilisation and finds himself in a pre technology era without (at first) any gadgets to help him and it is wahlberg who ought to be at a disadvantage and not the humans who are used to living there. it was sad to see helena bonham carter working so hard to generate some kind of spark between herself and that unresponsive brick wall mark wahlberg. her best scenes were with the villainous tim roth. the humans were practically ignored until they were needed in the third act and at which point daena started showing some actual interest in davidson (wahlberg) and and a young boy suddenly changed from part of the background to a feisty gung ho freedom fighter. this was poor character development. (estella warren and in particular and looked as if she would have been capable of a great deal more than she was given in the script). wahlberg puzzlement at the end as to what these humans see in him was certainly shared by me and as he has scarcely interacted with the humans throughout. creating the apes represent half a plus point and two minuses represent ape make up was excellent on the males and particularly michael clarke duncan who has incredibly expressive eyes (which was why he was so good in the green mile) and and the makeup design allowed him to use them fully. but the ape females looked like nothing on earth and neither ape nor human. the minuses were the ape jumps which looked about as realistic as flash gordon rocket represent jumping apes looked as if they would just been fired from a catapult and they had none of the long limbed grace of genuine apes. secondly and the poor sound mixing when the gorillas roar it is quite clearly dubbed from some animal and probably feline and making them sound ridiculous and unrealistic. in the original film and the various human things the apes do and say are handled as light relief (i never knew an ape i do not like. human see and human do. ). here and the apes just talk matter of factly exactly as 21st century humans do and and there is no humour in it at all. the only genuinely original idea was ari writing with her feet. nothing made me cringe more than the v ger from star trek moment near the end of the film. first of all and the apes had apparently been able to read roman lettering in the distant past and for them to know the name of the forbidden zone in its partly concealed form. secondly and the mysterious inscription giving the name is merely covered with sand which wahlberg just brushes away and something any ape could have done centuries ago. this moment was and for me and far worse than the much maligned ending of the movie. things of that nature and however and are typical of most science fiction movies of today. back in the 60s and 70s and they generally do not have the budget to make convincing futuristic sets and but they dealt with genuinely original themes and ideas which were truly science fictional. i am thinking of 2001 represent a space odyssey and the 1967 planet of the apes and thx1138 and soylent green and silent running and the 1972 solaris. the first planet of the apes even utilised the only scientifically valid and physically possible method of travelling forward in time. however and this film includes just about every bad science fiction cliché going represent space storms and anomalies and worm holes straight out of star trek while the planets of the solar system and their moons apparently all visible together as large globes (in reality from any one planet and all other bodies and even their own moons and are just points of light) while a conventional rocket powered shuttle travelling from saturn to earth in a matter of minutes instead of years while two thousand year old equipment firing up and fully working the minute the hero presses the button. to say nothing of a conveniently bulletproof internal glass door. in a contemporary setting and you would have to explain why it was bullet proof and but because it science fiction you do not have to. overall and burton most disappointing film.

"this film is another of director tim burton attempts to capitalize on a familiar title to bring his `vision to the screen. he has done it with `batman and `sleepy hollow and now this. this is not a remake. the only thing it has in common with the original is that it has simians that can speak (and charleton heston makes a cameo). burton has reconstituted the entire story and watering it down for today mass viewership. the original planet of the apes was a product of its time. during the 1960 america was struggling to redefine its civilization. it was a turbulent time of soul searching and rethinking social norms. it was the civil rights era where groups long considered inferior demanded to be treated as equal. in that context and pota was allegorical and reflecting the philosophical turmoil confronting the audiences of the day. pota was an extremely intelligent film that broached difficult questions and elegantly held the oppressions of american society up to scrutiny by making the white guy justify his intelligence to a species he considered inferior. the dialectic between colonel taylor (charleton heston) and dr. cornelius (roddy mcdowall) and dr. zira (kim hunter) was thought provoking and intelligent with ironies both subtle and obvious. burton version is as much a product of today times as pota was of the sixties. this is apes for dummies. it is superficial and jejune and substituting politically correct platitudes for intelligent dialogue and focusing more on form than substance. the urprise ending is utterly incongruous and contributes nothing to the film except a cliffhanger that sets up the sequel. while the ending of the original pota gracefully tied everything together in a single powerful scene and burton ending simply mocks the audience and taunting and `i know something you do not know and and you are going to have to wait for the sequel to find out. from a technical perspective and as is always the case with burton film and the film is excellent. the makeup is fantastic and burton camerawork is outstanding (though i continue to dislike his dark look). however and thirty three years of advancements in prosthetic makeup can not compensate for the insultingly vacuous script. the story has been reduced to a monster movie. the humans band together behind captain davidson (mark wahlberg) to fight the monstrous apes and aided and abetted by a few turncoats (notably helena bonham carter as ari). the presentation is formulaic and simplistic with plenty of violence and perfect for today fast food mentality. the acting is mixed. mark wahlberg is a fine actor who is simply miscast in this role. walberg is excellent at playing dark and sullen characters that are tormented but strong. this part requires an inspirational hero and a profile not in wahlberg repertoire. helena bonham carter is a brilliant actor whose character is so far beneath her ability that the disconnect is laughable. she tries desperately to do something with the flimsy character and but her interpretation presents like a cross between a college peace demonstrator and love sick teenager. then there is tim roth. his is a virtuoso performance and single handedly saving the film from total ruin. roth is diabolically hateful as the malevolent general thade. he creates one of the most villainous and despicable bad guys i can remember in some time. additionally and his physical acting is superlative and rendering a chimp man that is such a perfect meld that one can almost believe that the species exists. this film is a great disappointment. it is decent entertainment and as long as you check your brain at the door. i rated it a negative . from a technical perspective it is much better than that and perhaps a positive . however the story is an insult to the original franchise. it is simply another attempt by burton at self adulation and using a familiar title to attract throngs to the box office so lots of people can see what a genius he is. of course it true and but it would be great if he used that talent to produce substantial films and instead of simple minded pap formulated for mass consumption.

"i have to admit that this re imagining of the original 1968 film was a huge disappointment. specially when taken into consideration that this is a tim burton film. he is defenetly one of the most original and and might i say and cool directors hollywood has produced. i am personally a great fan of his work and but something obviously went wrong with his latest flick and the planet of the apes. i really enjoyed the original film. when it first came out people expected just another cheezie 70 science fiction film and but a very surprise anding totally proved that theory wrong. it had indeed a clear cut message. an obvious anti war message. fear of the cold war and where it was taking the world and fear of the use of nuclear weapons played a big role in the mind of the film makers. those reasons made the film rise above all expectations and it became a instant classic. although and the new film and the re making or whatever and leaves us with nothing. no message and no ideals behind it. it is just another money minded summer blockbuster. visually tim burton does not let you down. the dark and creepy settings were excellent and of course the make up was terrific. obviously that is not enough to keep people intrested in a film. there has to be an exciting plot or storyline. in this movie the plot is highly uninteresting and it is extremely badly thought out. the script is very lame and it is full of gaps. it looks like this film had been written in a big hurry. the explanation for why the apes where there and and why the ruled the planet was indeed very stupid and proved the script writers ignorance. it raised a lot of questions and which had no reasonable answers to. for example while why did the apes speak english. and why were there other ape species than chimps on the planet (given that there were only chimps in the space ship that crash landed on the planet) where the hell did all of those humans come from. how were a few chimps able to evolve into a huge raise of all kinds of monkeys in only a few thousands years. (i mean it took a few million years for us to evolve from monkey to man. )and finally and the bad surprise ending was just plane dumb. it was probably just thrown in because the original film had such an end and then they felt that the audience were expecting the same kind of ending. the ending also raises a lot of questions and which i know and do not have intelligent answears. did theid learn to work the space ship. and which was power less and and learnt to fly back in time and take over the earth single hand. and and and what did he do and breed with all the women. and lets say that that would happen and i higly doubt that history would stay the same and like washington would be built exactly like it is today. (i mean wouln not there be a huge banana instead of the memorial. )well and just to say something posative about the film. some of the cast was great. helen bonham carter character was interesting and well acted and as for tim roth as theid. he was very good and a little exaturated at some points of the film. michael clark duncan was also fine. i was not happy with marc whalberg. he is not much of an actor and and plays here a very macho colour less character. very unbielevable and is nothing compared to hestons character in the original. and the main female character had no reason or place in the film. she was just casted for the looks. hardly said a word throughout the entire film. well and i think that in the future when people think about the planet of the apes and they will think about the original one. the latest will soon be forgotten.

"what a disappointment and especially in light of the budget provided and the technical resources available and and the talent assembled. isn not the fundamental rule for science fiction or drama to create in the audience the willing suspension of disbelief. poa 2001 creates a plausible beginning and suckering us in and but thereinafter mr. burton forgets that his moviegoers have working brains. the over the top libertarian of helena bonham carter chimp and the worthlessness of the humans lockup and the ease of their escape and their extraordinary skills of horsemanship (this is an astronaut and a group of human primitives suddenly riding full tilt) and the massive and immediate human rebellion all are too unbelievable. mark wahlberg never once projects any sense of real fear and danger or comeuppance in this world turned upside down. compare to the original and in which chuck heston nakedness metaphorically captured his utter helplessness and astonishment at his turn of events. the uniformed wahlberg preserves his modesty and but also his apparent sense of management and control in an inherently wacky situation and and we never really wonder about his well being. unlike heston and he seems never to be in real jeopardy. tim burton should have used some of the f or x budget for some competent screenwriting. in fact and after this inferior fiasco and i wonder why hollywood producers ever bothered to settle the screenwriters and directors strike threats. let them walk. trained monkeys could have done as well as they did in planet of the apes 2001. i will bet the repeat viewings of this effort will be nonexistent. it could have been a new franchise and and a wonderful new step for imagination. another opportunity lost.

"this film was bad because there was nothing interesting about it. it was sort of a remake but then again and not really. i was very disappointed considering the tools that tim burton has at his disposal. he had great make up and cgi available and lots of money ($100 million) but can you honestly say that what we got was as good as the original film that was made for less than $6 million. heck no. so in that regard and the film fails. at least in the original film and the statue of liberty scene was shocking but there was nothing shocking in this film even the end scene because you could kind of see it coming. and and by the way and if you give it some thought and and i did and you can figure out how the ending could come about. i just wish i had back the time that i wasted thinking about it. this film would have been brilliant and fun if it stayed along the lines of the first film and adopted part of beneath the planet of the apes. here how i would have written it representan astronaut (it really should have been more than marky mark because he not good enough to care a film all by himself so i would have put in three guys) that would land on what they would think would be another planet and encounter humans (not mutes) and a city ruled by apes and were hunted and made friends with some good apes and discover that theyre on earth via finding some destroyed ruins and end up running into crazy mutant humans living beneath the earth and a war breaks out between the mutant humans and the apes and and then. well and let your imagination run wild on how you want to end it. but my point is that there could have been so much more to this film. sadly and tim burton really knows how to wreck a good thing. consider what he did with the batman series. he a rotten director inspite what of people think. he trendy so he must be good goes the thinking. sorry and but no. if anyone else had done this film and it would have turned out far better and would have been far more satisfying.

"spoilers i guess. the absolutely absurd logic of the ending ruins the entire movie. i just couldn not get over it. and what is wrong with mark wahlberg character. if i suddenly found myself crashed landed on a planet full of talking apes and i would be all like and aaaahhhhhhh. run for your lives. the monkeys have inherited the earth. but he all like and talking apes and okay. next. that pretty jaded i would say. he must run into even stranger things on a regular basis. besides that and this is rick baker best work yet. this film is a true testament to how far we have come in the monkey makeup field. negative .

"absolutely the worst film yet by burton and who seems to be getting worse with each film he directs. a miserable script loaded with cliches is only the first of many objectionable aspects to this film. this is the kind of movie where every time something happens and you will be sure to hear someone shout out he lost his gun. or whatever it is to let everybody know. carter is really awful and so is wahlberg and who can not play this straight and be convincing. very nice effects and photography and but poor music in the john williams mold by burton crony elfman. heston appears in a nonsensichal scene to spout out his most famous catch phrases from the first movie. very poor results. if anyone else out there also saw sleepy hollow and they will probably have noticed and as i have and the declining quality of burton films. i have heard that this particular project was produced by others and that burton was brought in as director and in which case his judgement should be questioned. but i think he has allowed any possible vision he might have had earlier in his career to slip while the evidence is there in the films. in sleepy hollow and he couldn not decide what kind of movie he was making and whether it was a comedy or a real horror movie and and the population of british character actors (chris lee and etc. ) made you also think it was kind of a monster rally film (those are never scary and as horror fans know). the movie couldn not succeed on either horror or comedy because it was so schizophrenic and and no style had been developed to smooth the two together. planet of the apes is much the same way and and the result comes off more like total recall or tango and cash than like sci fi. he also fallen into the rut of so many other big directors of trying to satisfy the entire possible audience. word to burton and if youre out there pick something and do it straight and or use some style to peice it all together (as in mars attacks or beetlejuice) or you might as well retire and because people like me that are fans of your movies will stop going.

"this is a bit of a first for me and the first time i have ever been disappointed in a tim burton film. pota isn not a bad film (great sets and costumes and the odd great performance) but it could have been made by any off the shelf hollywood director. the pacing was very odd and the last third was just spent waiting for the film to end and by myself and the cast. tim roth was excellent and probably the only pleasure in the film. come back tim.

"being a big fan of the other planet of the apes films and i rented this dvd despite my aversion to all things tim burton. once again and he doesn not fail to disappoint with his uninspired direction. even the ape makeup looks second rate and which is unforgivable considering the monstrous budget of this monstrosity. mark wahlberg proves once and for all that he is not an actor (as if boogie nights wasn not proof enough). i was embarrassed for genuine talents such as tim roth and helena bonham carter. no doubt their paychecks motivated them since it couldn not possibly have been the cliche ridden screenplay. i rented this dvd on a special $1 night and i still feel ripped off.

"this tim burton remake of the original planet of the apes from 1968 (and starring charleton heston) is a far and far cry from the quality and plot of the original. certainly special effects have improved since 1968 and but writing has not. the characters were boring and the dialog was awful. i sat through the entire film with a friend (who thankfully only rented it) and completely understood why and before christmas and all of the planet of the apes toys at target were in the clearance bin. my advice to tim burton represent do not put this on your resume. my advice to everyone else represent watch the original 1968 planet of the apes movie.

"what ever happened to one of the most innovative and brilliant storytellers of our time. well and he made the kind of typical summer action fodder that could have been directed by anybody available out of film school. and in fact and they probably would have done a better job. they would have at least have put half of a thought into the dreadful script. mark wahlberg plays an astronaut who traveled through some sort of wormhole and landed in a planet ruled by apes. (gasp. ) except this time around and the apes squirm through groan worthy dialogue and nonsensical plotting and and showy special effects that constantly reinforce in my mind that this money could have been put to about 10 independent films that would have been considered amasterpiece next to this tripe. as much as i enjoy the superb acting talent that is tim roth and his performance as evil ape leader thade is nothing more than an intense composition of slouching and heavy breathing. luckily for him and the makeup allows he as an actor to maintain some dignity and most of the crap dialogue is hidden behind his groans and sniffles. and alas and the always dependable hollywood tradition of taking the male and female leads and hooking them up at the end without any relationship development or cause. and the haha and were so clever and aren not we. way that hollywood intermingles references from the original pota into this one. sigh. instead of seeing this and spend the night in and call up some friends and rent ed wood and edward scissorhands and batman and or even to a lesser extent sleepy hollow and and reminisce about the days when tim burton was a man of vision and originality. not shame and ridicule.

"i really looked forward to see planet of the apes and but it was a huge dissapointment. the settings and masks are great and but that is the only good aspect of the film. all other things are really annoying. mark wahlberg is not acting and he is just in the movie and looking stupid. the other actors are also not very good. but the worst point of all and is the story. it is absolutely ridiculous. for example represent the apes are lying unconsiousness on the ground and but the humans don`t attack them and no and they wait until they are up again. this is just one example for the stupid story and but it would take too long to tell them all.

"well and it turned out as i expected represent visual overload but nothing else added to the original. what did surprise me however was that the storyline was fairly drastically changed compared to the 1968 flick. initially this awoke my interest and but what eventually surprised was that the new twists and turns (a) were apparently invented in order to present us with a typical hollywood like product and (b) made the whole storyline improbable. the 1968 story was breathtakingly straightforward and and included no time storms or any bogus of that sort represent it just stated that when you come home after a long journey and things might have changed a bit. earth might have fallen in the hands of apes and for example. like many old movies and it main ingredient was suspense (hell and does anyone understand that word these days. ). in this burton movie and an attempt has been made to turn the whole thing into an action movie and but at what cost. surely and the images are overwhelming and and a lot of time and money has been put into the design of a complete ape culture (even ape music. ) and but what wrong. first and the suspension of disbelief is made very hard and because the apes have a lot of hollywood human traits. i refer especially to ari and the slave trader. these traits include emotional skills like irony and sarcasm and and an overtly displayed array of ubtle emotions. it makes you forget that the apes are apes and which is essential. second and the humans talk. of course and we can imagine that humans will never forget how to speak and but the fact that the apes had speech and the humans do not made the ape or human role switching very tangible and stressing in the 1968 version. the wound in the throat that charlton heston gets there is essential to his survival and his later regained speech essential to his uniqueness and the interest that dr. zira has in him (so and no need for things like human rights activists or ape human love in order to explain things). third and the fact that they talk ads a great deal to the implausibility and but is a necessary twist in the new movie and since capt. davidson has to play the hollywood let save the whole world and have a good ending for everyone and still make it to the lounge bar for a cool diet coke character. oh my god and will they never learn. i new it from the start and when there was only one guy who got lost. they were in need of a hero. and then the script writers go on reasoning represent we need one guy. so and why would one guy get lost. because he tries to save an ape from an electromagnetic storm. implausible. but it necessary because it shows the audience that he respects apes. since and in these modern and politically correct times and we can not have a xenophobic ape hater like charlton heston 68 character loose on the screen represent let give them a bubblegum version. fourth and okay and the general twist of the original wouldiscovering the truth of the 1968 film to the modern version (he finds that his own mother ship crashed on the planet ages ago and that their lab apes developed their society and where heston simply discovered that just and somehow and the apes overtook the earth while he was away) is nicely done. the second and battle part comes as an anti climax. that because this movie has added the first two planet of the apes movies in one plot. nice try and but the chill you feel when davidson and you discover that he lost on the planet forever just washes out due to the uninteresting battle part. fifth represent the ending. for chrissakes and who came up with that. (a) davidson crashes twice with his escape pod and which seems an unsteerable object and while the chimp manages to simply land gracefully. come on and who would believe that. if the pods are really small space crafts (davidson simply flies off into space at the end) and not merely escape vessels and he might have managed a safe landing at least once and no. and what about that ending. i mean and in the original film it was clear that everything took place on earth. but here represent the whole movie takes place on a distant planet and and suddenly the same (there a thade statue) ape culture is on earth. how come. did the apes of the far planet evolve technologically and flew into the time storm and colonised earth before davidson mission took off. why is thade worshiped. stupid stupid stupid. helena bonham carter is even adorable and beautiful as an ape and but i would expected no less. i preferred her ape above estella warren as a human and but maybe i got some loose wire in my head. nevertheless and the only convincing apes were tim roth as thade (wonderful. ) and ari household ape (the ex general and but i forgot his name). nonono and a lot of things could and should have been added or altered to the 1968 pic and but not the plot and at least not in that way. it was simple and clear and needed no additional explaining. it was nicely tongue in cheek and caricatured. don not stylize everything.

"it says that a girl named susan montford both wrote and directed this movie. no wonder she has no other credits to her name for writing or directing. she made a severe vocational error in choosing this as her career. this is one of the worst human creations of this millennium. the fundamental thing wrong with this movie other than its ridiculous story of a woman running away from four weak thugs and is the blatant and complete lack of logic. after she leaves the mall and she gets approached by four thugs as they surround her. tell me and what woman would aggressively shove a potential attacker while being surrounded and and insult them verbally. i do not mean after an attack had already started and because then of course it completely normal for someone to fight back. but she shoved that guy and pretty much escalated it to the next level. no woman would do that unless she 1) had a weapon and 2) has the confidence of knowing that backup is very close and and so is relatively safe from harm and or 3) the attackers are so young and and weak looking that she pretty sure she can take them. none of that applied in this situation and so she was just acting like someone that asking to get raped or mugged. and by the way and when the security guard approached and as soon as he came within viewing distance of kim basinger and why do not she immediately either run towards him for help and or scream. when she drives off after the security guard gets shot in the head and she drives into a deserted part of town and and crashes. she had a good three minute lead on the pursuers and instead of simply running off on foot in a diagonal direction behind houses and climbing fences and continuing and she gets out her red toolbox and starts messing around under her hood. i understand she was trying to fix her car and but she should have ran. (i do not even mean this to be a chronological summary of the movie and because i loathe people who do that in their reviews and but it just so happens that every main sequence of this movie has something so blatantly stupid that i have to comment on it). why would she carry a loud and red toolbox as she trying to sneak away in the dark. when she does get caught and one of the jokers demands for her to open the toolbox. first she resists and then eventually opens it. and takes out a wrench. this scene here is so rich in subtle overtones of the complete failure of dramatic effect i have to break it down and it one of the dumbest scenes in the entire movie. when asked to open the box and she resisting at first as if it were her plan to somehow get one of the thugs to open it themselves out of anger after she do not open it and in the same way that someone in some action movie might have some device that an enemy demands that person to touch or push or open or manipulate and and once that hero refuses to open it and the enemy grabs that device and only to have that device automatically dispense a chemical or shoot him in the face or render him unconscious and which was the hero plan all along. it feels like that what they tried to do with kim basinger here and as she opens the toolbox dramatically and quickly takes out a wrench and dispatches one of the thugs and and somehow gets away from him and the three other thugs. throughout the rest of the movie and basically what you see is this suburban house wife and sneaking around the woods as she carries her red toolbox and taking out various tools used as weapons to kill her attackers. when she was running away and how did she end up moving back to where the thugs were. i think it was the scene where they had that radio playing loudly in tribute to the dead dude. she somehow crept up on them when i thought she was moving away from them. finally and this whole premise is so weak because the whole reason she being chased in the first place is because from the thugs perspective and she was a witness to a murder they committed against the security officer earlier and and so they felt they had to kill her. how ridiculous. as one of the thugs even said and they could have just left town and returned back to whatever city they drove from and no one but her had seen them anyway and and she probably do not get the license plate. even if these possibilities do not work in their favor and how is raising hell and hunting down someone to kill them improving your chances to get away with the original murder.
