I was extremely bored and desperate for entertainment. It was either this or watching 300 or 'The Namesake' again. At the last second at the counter, I chose this - even though I had checked the RT rating before I headed out.
Bruce Willis sleepwalks through the role. Halle Berry doesn't show us her boobs but she dabs a little perfume under her dress and dry-humps a guy. Giovanni Ribissi was good as the token computer-geek/hacker but the director jacked it in a scene where he turns out to be a typical computer-geek-with-crush-on-co-worker/friend who has a secret shrine dedicated to the object of his affection. There is a naked though horribly decomposed corpse for those who like that kind of stuff.
Cheesy product placements for Victoria's Secret, Heineken & Reebok.
Just want to know what others around here think about the movie. I think it is a lame movie but probably not as bad as the 1-star reviews out there. Maybe 1.5/5 stars.
And yeah, there is a twist ending that comes out of nowhere. And not the Fight Club/Sixth Sense type but more like the....uh....ok, I can't remember other ****** twist endings. Someone help me out?
Give it a miss. I can't decide whether to classify it as:
- I want my money back
- I want my two hours back
- I want my money AND my two hours back
- Nah, I was bored and at least I didn't feel like walking out
