Rating: Summary: What were they thinking? Review: This was awful in every way a movie can be. I cannot believe this movies average rating right now is 2.5 stars. What is there to like?
Rating: Summary: An abomination Review: How did this movie get released? This movie is an excellent example of why directors should not be allowed to go unsupervised. And what the heck is Sean Connery doing in this? I fell asleep while watching this (really). When I awoke, I glanced at my wife, and discovered that she was also asleep. Bad. Very bad. Watch the TV show instead, and let's pretend this movie never happened (like Mission Impossible).
Rating: Summary: Would have made a better painting... Review: What a waste of time.. a caricature of the cariacture of "Englishness" that made the originals so watchable.. how can anything so obviously contrived have hoped to have worked? if you went to an English public school it works on a very surreal level, but it's hardly worth the time. The English are quite capable of sending themselves up: I suggest next time that the producers leave us to it..
Rating: Summary: Should be ZERO stars Review: Ah, yes, another classic example of why NOT to make movies out of tv shows. Hollywood spends zillions to make bombs like this, as well as Mod Squad, Leave It To Beaver, Beverly Hillbillies, etc. Can't anyone write a story using their own imagination instead of raiding the vaults of golden television shows from the 50s-80s?! Of course not, no one has an original thought anymore, so just rip-off from favorite old shows & so what if they're not box-office winners, SOMEBODY out there will pay their good old hard earned money to see it.
Rating: Summary: A classic example of style over substance Review: It gets 2 stars because I actually didn't fall asleep
Rating: Summary: Absolutely fabulous Review: I loved the way all the main actors had their pure style. The movie was fun to watch, whith all the technology combined with the style and manners. I just loved the accent they used and the way the story went.
Rating: Summary: I NEVER FELT SO JACKED Review: As regretful to say I saw this movie in theater with my mother. Once I saw the meeting with people dressed as teddy bears, I was like, "Mama, I'm sorry I'm going to play some video games in the lobby." I tried to watch it, but it just got sadder by the second. The only time I came back was when I asked my mother for more quarters.Come 15 minutes after I left, my Mama even came out telling me "Kim lets go it's hopeless." Everybody was so caught up in the hype about how they made the special effects look, and I for one was taken for a fool. I Dought I would EVER find a movie worse then this. For the people who want to rent this PLEASE DON'T DO THIS TO YOURSELF OR YOUR FAMILY!
Rating: Summary: It's a WASTE OF TIME!!! Review: This might be the worst thing I've ever watched in my life! This movie isn't worth watching. I don't know why I feel it's a try to make something like Batman & Robin!!! Well, Batman & Robin was good, but this is really bad! It's a shame that Sean Connery and Uma Thurman were in such a bad movie. Hey, isn't that a little surprise that Uma was in Batman & Robin too?!! The 1 star I gave to this movie is the lowest option available, but honestly I would give it a big 0.
Rating: Summary: To What Purpose? Review: An incredible sum of money was spent on the set design and special effects of a movie that no one wanted to see. "The Avengers", for Pete's sake? Does anyone care about that show? Is there anyone old enough to remember it? As for the movie itself, we are asked to suspend all, and I mean ALL, belief: a madman who can control the earth's weather is our plot device. Sheesh! Imagine "Austin Powers" without the intermittent humor. This film is utterly without life. Everyone involved should be busy trying to forget that they had anything to do with this picture.
Rating: Summary: 2 hours of my life I'll never get back... Review: I cannot express how agonizing 90% of this movie was to me. The thing that gets me is that this *should* have been an awesome movie. Great actors, great scenery and location, and the chance for a charming, modern-but-not-quite spy movie that could have been watchable. But the characters were poorly developed and generic (I *really* wanted to like Fiennes' character, but just couldn't), the plot was just silly, and the whole giant teddy bear thing was too surreal and freaky to be anything but acid-inspired. I bought this movie only because I wanted to see Uma Thurman in a skin-tight leather outfit, and because it had a Jaguar E-Type on the cover. I admit that watching Uma fight with herself is certainly worth paying for, but the rest of the movie has me wondering why the studio didn't pay ME to sit through it. And to add insult to injury, they shoot up the Jag - an absolute lack of class.
