Plothole galore. Motivation of why many of the main characters do their specific things are very lacking. The movie could have been a lot better. It's not really bad, but it's definitely not a good movie either.
Not bad. Entertaining, but rather predictable. It's basically like watching Brosnan do another James Bond movie, but then just a little less over the top. Not the best movie ever, but I enjoyed it.
The movie starts very slow, it's mostly a typical lawer-meets-spystuff movie with a lot of talking. Still, I enjoyed the movie. Dont expect for any big time plot changes though, it's almost a documentary.
well, what should I say... this is a movie to forget about quickly. I guess it was some sort of attempt at creating arthouse with an impressive list of 'names'; but it ended up becoming no more than a sum of cliches.
Huge disappointment. After such strong movies before, this was a total let-down.
Good movie. Really keeps you guessing. At first I thought it would be "another one of those 13 in a dozen" time traveling movies, btu this one was quite different from the average one, it really stands out from the bunch.
It seemed like a movie for 12-14 y/o kids, if there wouldnt be so many bodies.
Everything was just retardly stupid about this movie. The plot, the milestones, basically everything that happened.....
A plane crashes, everyone aboard is dead after the crash, but the fuselage is still 100% intact, and people are still sitting on their desk-chairs inside of the plane........? Right.
Stupidity all around in this movie. I'd expect this movie was written on a Thursday night in the pub, while everyone was getting drunk, the initial idea was not bad, the start of the movie could have even become a decent action movie, but then everyone got drunk and the whole plot and storyline went downhill from there.
What a total let-down. Stupid dialogues, stupid characters and sure if everyone gets shot to hell around you, keep on laughing......... right? C'mon.
Nowhere near as good as the original Statham movies. Heck, even the series was better (and that series was b.a.d.).
I would say I am target audience, as I was born in 1979 and played pacman, arkanoid, space invaders, digger, paratroopers, etc etc. And I played them a lot.
But the first 20 minutes was not funny, not entertaining, it was as watching a very bad version of sci-fi revenge of the nerds. And a rather pathetic version at that.
Yes, I guess that word soms up this movie: pathetic.
I love the whole idea and possibly this story could have proven a fun movie with many retro elements. But unfortunately this movie does not go beyond a pathetic display of how 'nerds' live and behave. Or how Hollywood perceives it.
Adam Sandler is annoying as always and this "Ludlow" person by Josh Gad is absolutely terrible.
This movie is a really weird mix of Harry Potter, Beverly Hills 90210, Twilight and Veronica Mars all thrown into one. At the same time it's refreshing though. Don't take the movie too seriously and heck, it's perhaps even a little enjoyable.
If you're expecting a proper and thruthful book-adaption, you'll be in for a serious disapointment though.
Somehow I just couldnt get into this movie. It was not my cup of tea. Disappointing
I absolutely loved the movie. The plot holes were almost negligable and as a whole it seemed to be.... realistic! This movie is Cast Away meets Gravity meets McGuyver.
The gore and violence was too much for me. I almost never stop watching a movie, but after 40 minutes it was too much crazyness for me. Is this is what they call "arthouse" ? Or just reallife anime? No thanks.
Ugh... terrible movie. The only thing good about the movie was Mila.
I was already lost when they mistook Mila for her friend (they clearly were looking for Katharine Dunlevy, based on the birth certificate) and then actually, they were actually looking for Jupiter (Mila) afteral. Say what?
The whole story and this incredible cast really had some potential... but.... Mehh.
Even Leaving Las Vegas was less depressing then this movie. And that
movie surely was better written, had better dialogs and was created
with a lot of passion. All of which are things this movie lacks.
Yet again a far-below-mediocre movie from Nicolas Cage. I cant believe
how far he has sunk.
The movie started out interesting, with an old spy confined to his
desk. The motives for the (typical in this kind of movies) helper are
superficial at most. For some vague reason he gives up his career to
pursue the (typical for this kind of movie) villain that the old spy
never managed to catch.
But the movie does not get much further there. It's as if the writer
did not manage to find any further inspiration. Or they ran out of
budget. Or both.
Do. Not. Bother.
so incredibly stupid that it's funny. still, I'd say, waste your time on another movie
I was disappointed by the movie, I expected a whole lot more of it.
Still, it was entertaining, but it was mostly CGI, 3D special effects, more special effects and... well... oh right, there is Scarlett.
that's it.
still. it was some brainless entertainment, good for an hour or so on the couch with my gf
Usually I can very much agree with CatyAlexandre reviews :) but this time I didnt enjoy this movie as much. I found it a very strange movie and I stopped watching it, so I did not rate it. I'm afraid I would not be able to do it justice.
For what I did watch I would not get above 5 out of 10... perhaps it's just not for me.
I guess this is a "love it or hate it" kind of movie. I enjoyed it, it had a few good laughs.
Dont expect an intelligent movie. It's Men in Black meets Ghostbusters and then on steroids.
Probably the worst movie of Jeff Bridges though, his character was simply obnoxious.
I enjoyed this movie a lot, it's a good introduction to a series of movies, hopefully, just like the books. Sure, it could have been better, but its definitely not bad.
this is one of the most overrated movies I have ever seen. It's boring as h*ll. Even the sex is boring... tedious, too much talking about nothing (and the dialogues aren't all that super either), predictable, drugs and sex to be an end isntead of a means for the story to be told (and as I said, even the sex is boring). Even DiCaprio could not save this incredibly crap movie.
This is basically a modern remake of the Green Card (1990), although the initial situation is different and the way they get to the (expected) outcome. I love Sandra Bullock. The chemistry between the two is quite good, the movie was predictable in many ways, but with these kind of movies sometimes thats the best feature. A pleasant feel-good movie, enjoyable, funny at times.
This is one of the most overrated movies I have ever seen
basically it's about some guy who is an inspirator and uses his good talk to make shitloads of money and then loses it all because of a huge amount of drugs abuse.
the movie is tideous, slow, predictable, and just not all that good.
Di Caprio his action is great, but that's about all there is to it.
extremely overrated.
I continued to watch it, but that was only coz my girlfriend had fallen asleep with her head on my lap and I didnt wanne wake her up
extremely enjoyable movie. simple action flick, but very well done. not too realistic, but suspenseful. one of the few movies that I know off which are entirely on board of an airplane and well done. Liam Neeson +1.
I totally agree with Draackje.
this movie really missed the chemistry between Chris and Evelyn, that was still there between Rachel Weisz and Brendan Fraser in the first two.
it all felt as if the actors were doing it because they had to, not because they wanted to, not because they actually enjoyed making this movie.
too bad.. all ingredients were there, but the mix didnt add up to a nice bowl of soup.
great acting by Amy Adams and Christian Bale. it's a smart movie and in a way interesting.
but this movie is also slow, tedious and... well, quite frankly it's boring.
I rather watch a few episodes of White Collar, which is wittier, faster and more entertaining
Boring. Long. Overdone. Many many many inconsistencies.
Sure it had some great scenes, very good looking nature shots, but overall it was tedious. And the part with the dragon was..... zzzz.... It was as if I was watching a bad version of DragonHeart.
Maybe if they had merged Hobbit 2 and 3 together, it would have been better. But this...
Great action movie. Captain America: First Avenger was totally crap, but this was a totally different level action movie and very enjoyable.
Btw, didnt anyone notice "The Path Of The Righteous Man" ?
I enjoyed the references to other movies a lot and its great to see how the story of the different Marvel movies is starting to link in more and more.
Of course it was not a perfect movie, but I totally second CatyAlexandre statement.
a very different kind of take on vampire movies, refreshing.
I enjoyed it
I'm still not sure if I should give this movie a 8/10 or a 3/10.
its so -extremely- bad that its actually good, from a grindhouse point of view.
crazy movie.
