Not that bad, learn to laugh...


and not treat every movie like it needs to be revolutionary. I saw on rotten tomatoes that is currently has a 19% which brings me to the conclusion that RT is ran by a bunch of know-it-all-lacking-a-funnybone-takes-films-way-to-seriously-jerks-who-need-to-learn-to-laugh. I give it at least an 7-10. Not too bad.

I see no reason to laugh just because Tracy Morgan yells every line of the movie.

I'm no Morgan fan, but Willis was awesome.

I'm not a religious man but AMEN BROTHER!!!!!

I'm so sick of movie snobs.. The movie was really enjoyable. It was no apocalypse sure but the reviews dont do it justice either..

I'd rather be a film snob than an idiot who likes every piece of trash Hollywood pushes down his throat.

Not that good, learn to criticize...

You're acting like your world depends on the movies you see.. Relax man it's just a movie it's not the end of the world... Jeez

And who are you exactly to tell me to learn to critisize?

With all due respect *beep* you sir! When it comes to tastes there is not good or bad.

reply

I chuckled a couple of times but honestly just because Smith directed it i still dont count this as one of his movies. It just wasnt that good.

A film snob is an idiot.

That's a lazy criticism.

I give this movie a 9.5
Why do people hate this movie so much.. I watched this in theaters with my cousin & my dad & we really liked it.

well I still laughed a lot, a lot, a lot actually. I guess the fans of this film (myself included) have the ability to turn our brains off and just enjoy the film.

reply

Absolutely. Not every movie is going to be Citizen Kane. That would be boring anyway. Most times, I just want to kick back and enjoy escapist fare. This fits the bill for me.

reply

Indeed.

Would not have been 'that bad' if it was a ten minutes SNL sketch. Thats about as long as Tracy Morgan can entertain with his schtik before it comes across as 'one trick pony'. Bruce Willis phones it in as straight man in this formula buddy movie. Everybody has their ' heart of gold' routine going, even the trophy wife of the guy who shouldnt be able to score a trophy wife. The bad guys are stereotypical uber bad guys with no sense of humor at all, downright cruel and vicious, yahh thats what I like in a comedy, cruel and vicious characters. IMDB is for discussion about movies, what we like, what we dont like, whats good, bad and what really sucks, IN OUR OPINION. Not gonna knock your opinion that something is 'not bad', I fully believe you think it was ok, but you get to deal with my opinion that it was trying to give me the 'same old, same old spoonfed drivel'. Opinions are not that bad, learn to appreciate that others have opinions too. ;)

granted I made an over the hill observation, but the RT score was way to low! I take other opinions very seriously only when the negative opinions actually note the flaws, most however do not they usually consist of "This movies sucks!" or "Worst movie ever!" You have actually listed what you see as flaws and faults, so yeah my origianl post was written fifteen minutes after I finished the film and I was just amazed at the Rotten Tomatoes score, which I think is unfairly low.

Exactly OP this movie wont win any awards but it never tried to. It was funny and i loved it.

couldn't agree more radstonecold316.

"Whoo! Whoo! Hey, Parny. I'm going to Chicago, baby! I'm driving a stick!"

reply

Yeah, agreed.
I was expecting it to be awful but it wasn't too bad.
I never laughed out loud but I smirked a few times, and until it got into all the shooting at the end it was pretty entertaining.
I watched it after a pretty *beep* day though...

i loled when the kid (car thief) retorted "your mama's"...

reply

Yeah I won't call this a classic masterpiece, but it's so fun to watch. Especially thd maxium comedy mode
