Reviews

The only excuse I can think that the writers can put out for this fail, is that it's hard to have expectations for sequels. Bad excuse, I was very disappointed with this movie. I very much support speranzadaniel's review, this movie sucked.

*** Contains spoilers **

The plot is extremely Hollywood typical, it's poorly put together. J (W.Smith) has to jump back in time (do a Back to the future trick) and save K (Tommy Lee Jones) from inevitable death. The actors are not performing very well, and what is with all the staring and lingering of these people, you could squeeze a full movie in between all these sighs.

As a typical Hollywood plot, the movie progresses, J manages to fulfill his mission, with a huge dose of cliché and arguments against K (played by Josh Brolin) in the future .I liked Brolin in no country for old men, but in this movie he doesn't really deliver, to be honest I don't feel like anyone of the actors are. As a Jemaine Clement fan from Flight of the Conchords, but not very positively surprised.

Too bad you can't post negative votes here, this one definitively deserves it.

I believe the words "complete rubbish" sums up this move pretty good. Before actually watching it myself, I had heard much about it, generally because my old classmate is playing one of the lead characters in this movie (who? take a guess). So i thought i could give it a shot. Obviously, this proved to be a huge mistake.. Why? read on.. (yes i wrote it in like 10min so I'm not sitting next to my dictionary, nor am i from a English speaking country) *SPOILERS...............* Tommy himself represent a young boy who does not want to participate in any sexual behavior because of his religious belief. What a load of bull! Tommy does not in any way represent the common youths on his age, and his acting is so terrible that he makes me wanna apply for a actor position just to protest. It's quite obvious that 99% of the actors and actresses are doing this job for the first time, if you catch my drift.

Anyway, let's jump to the story, enough picking on the people playing it. I wish i have anything great or extraordinary to comment on the story itself, but I'm afraid i have to disappoint you. The entire story flickers around Tommy (yes i know it's his movie), but the story is so thin that it makes me want to fetch my baseball bat. After screwing around with several guys, Tommys girlfriend suddenly realizes that she's really lesbian. She's really in theoretical Tommys nemesis, granted with the fact that she prejudicially lingers on sex and fu*****. Stupid, stupid, stupid! To put it this way, if this director discovers that he wants to make a sequel sometime, make sure you send me the original copy of the script first, in case i run out of toilet paper. The actors seem so stupid and cheap that i thank God that this only a film.

What i consider the only light in the end of the tunnel is the foreign guy the film (yes i've unfortunately forgot his name, it's not to be a racist). He makes the film worth living through in some strange way, and unlike the other characters he shows some sort of spark throughout the film. So to round it off, my personal advice is to under any circumstance never watch this movie, it's not worth the disc it's labeled on.
