Paycheck (Widescreen Edition)

Summary: It wasn't bad...
Review: ..But it wasn't good, either. This movie needs to be approached with a healthy dose of cynicism and popcorn, because it seems that every five minutes, the characters are tripping and falling into plot holes. Ben "What? I'm playing a smart character this time?" Afflek proves just why he's a box-office flop: The guy can't act to save his soul from satan. And that's saying something, because satan's got pretty low standards. The whole concept is interesting, with the packet of items being "Sent ahead" in time... sort of... But the ending was so obvious that I could see it coming like a horrible, horrible train wreck that you can't stop. "Ha ha!" The peasants rejoice: "We've won the lottery for ourselves!"

Bah.

Summary: Paycheck...with John Woo..he could of done better
Review: John Woo directs this sometimes fun but who really cares action/thriller about Michael Jennings, Ben Affleck (Jersey Girl, Dogma) who gets three years of his life erased by his friend Aaron Eckhart (In The Company Of Men, Suspect Zero) for a big fat old 92 million dollar paycheck. When Affleck gets done with the journey he finds out that he doesnt have the money and he gave it away and he send himself 20 items to himself to help his memory. Joining him is sexy Uma Thurman (Kill Bill 1 and 2, Chelsea Walls). Will Jennings remember? Will he figure out the clues? What will happen in the end? The final showdown only provides some of the bang. Affleck is that effecting, Thurman is sexy but she's done better and Eckhart needs a new hair do and this movie needed a better villain. Since it was from the writer of Blade Runner and Minority Report it kinda echoed into Minority Report territory...you know...Affleck is accused of things..the feds and Eckhart chase him around...stuff about seeing the future. Also starring Paul Giamatti (Sideways, American Splendor), Joe Morton (Speed, Blues Brothers 2000), Colm Feore (City Of Angels, Highwaymen) and Ivana Milicevic (Head Over Heels, Tv's Buffy The Vampire Slayer). Being that it is a John Woo film, he could of done a hell of a lot better then this.

Summary: NOT AGAIN!
Review: If you enjoyed this movie, you are a complete moron.

Ben continues to convince the world that Hollywood is about looks, not talent. Thanks, Ben. Go sell cars.

Summary: The weakest PKD movie adaption yet
Review: This is quite bad. I wish I could solely blame Ben Affleck who is just incredibly awful and miscast in this, but I'm afraid I finally have to admit to myself that John Woo did his best work a long time ago and that much of the brilliance of his early films probably have a lot to do with Chow Yun Fat and his remarkable charisma. Oh well. I had poor expectations for this movie the minute I saw that Affleck was cast. No way in hell does he belong in a Philip K Dick story, but things are much worse than expected when you find yourself longing for Tom Cruise.
