What is Going On With You People?
3 December 2010
I felt like posting a comment, not because this movie is one of my favorites or something like that, but only because I don't understand how it's getting such poor reviews. I like several types of movies, and rarely go to the cinema to see commercial ones. The only thing that makes me buy expensive tickets to the cinema these days, are directors like David Fincher, Darren Aronofsky, Terrence Malick, Christopher Nolan and not much more. At home, I'm also peculiar selecting movies, but I also like seeing now and then, a movie that is just cool, simple, not too serious, but also not too stupid. So here's the key-point, too stupid, and although this movie isn't like genius, it isn't that stupid either. Why is being treated like if it was, is beyond me. I don't know if it's just in the States, or also in Europe. So Megan Fox is miscast, yes, but her character isn't relevant to the story anyway. She's just in it because she's hot, and to bring some publicity to the movie. When she's with Josh Brolin, he compensates her lack of performance, and when she's alone, she's showing off her legs and body, which is a good thing too. I don't understand how really dumb movies like Transformers 2, Wanted, Blade, Terminator3, Lara Croft, XXX and even Scary Movie have higher ranking than this one. Is this a great movie? No. Is it a worth watch movie? Yes. This one is simple: if you liked the trailer, you'll like the movie, if didn't liked the trailer, skip the movie.
