The trailer looked good but the movie sucked. By the time it got interesting (Michael B) it was over. It's set up for a sequel but they screwed that up by it sucking. The plus side, Zoe looked good.


Even if it sucked, it's actually under rated by just how badly it performed at the box office. They probably lost over 100 million dollars on that movie. Even Antonio Brown thinks that was a bad decision.

Feels like ‘Drive,’
It’s just very good movie making.

Blood and Bone. Prolly more Kung Fu-ish, but I think it works.

I want to say The Long Kiss Goodnight, but:
1 The editing and cinematography are still very 80s.
2 The score is jarringly bad.
3 It’s a bit campy at times.

I've enjoyed watching that movie, including some "local perspective" - toward the end of the movie, the little girl gives Geena Davis a pack of matches, when she's unable to start a fire using two sticks. The matches have the logo of a popular local grocery store chain that I shop at all the time.

I love that movie.

Gina Davis.

Same reason I love Earth Girls Are Easy.

I've watched this one more than once the past few months on cable. It was a box office and critical bomb but I found it very entertaining and Garner is just sooo hot.

Never heard of it, but these days I might seek it out.
