Beanbioca As Good As It Gets

Zandra The movie turns out to be a little better than the average. Starting from a romantic formula often seen in the cinema, it ends in the most predictable (and somewhat bland) way.

videorama-759-859391 From the opening scene, where we take sheer delight in seeing a tubby, long haired Liotta washed up on a Sydney shore like a beached whale, we clearly know what's ahead, and we patently know were not in for any masterpiece. A near death experience that has Liotta crashing through a Sydney pharmacy, in King's Cross, while late to rendezvous with his not so lucky mate, sees him paying for it three years later. Now, relocated, a reformed Liotta, finds his past catching up with him, in the form of embittered ex con (Purcell) who spent the past years in the slammer, as that unfortunate rendezvous resulted in a sting operation, so we can see why Purcell's quite peeved. From here, this movie, becomes a basic by the numbers situation drama, where an obsessed Purcell keeps reappearing in Liotta's life, after having him cornered in a convenience store hold up/set up candid camera and all. Liotta isn't going down easy. It's not the best timing with Liotta, close to proposing to his new love, Vanessa Gray, one of the better performers. She doesn't yet know of his criminal past, so we can see Liotta's peril, while he also has his parole officer (Andy "Wolf Creek" Mcphee) on his back. So the rooting begins for Liotta to overthrow this thorn in his side, as he finally breaks, where it's not going to be easy. I must say Bad Karma is colourfully entertaining, but it also has some bloody pathetic moments, and embarrassingly bad dialogue, especially towards the end that I almost couldn't believe I was hearing. It has some nice nubile bodied chicks in the raw too, one who gets a little too pokey with Purcell. I couldn't believe all the disfavour with Purcell's performance. I thought he was the best in the film. An older, overweight, haggard Liotta was quite good too, as we could sympathize a lot with him, as much wanting him to rid Purcell as him. Great aboriginal actor, by none the finest I've seen of his race, Aaron was very strong as Liotta's ex con mate, Bear. Like nearly everything filmed on the Gold Coast (though being a Sydney lover, I liked the early shots in the film) again here's a poor and forgettable effort, this one of a guy trying to go straight. Watch Bad Karma at the laughing expense of Liotta, as it is an entertainer, but as a movie, one of 2012's worst, the first half of the title truly describes it's merit. I did too like Liotta's girlfriend's pad.

jackasstrange I bought this film yesterday. I was expecting a very dull and forgettable film, judging by the actually awful typical from B films kind of cover. It was a blind-choice. And just like i was expecting, it is a pointless film experience. It hasn't the 'charm' of a B film either. So yeah: pretty forgettable bad film. Super cliché crime- films situations almost killed this film single handed. The premise 'past coming back to disturb the bad guy seeking for a new life', is probably one of the most overused ever.And is bad executed, to worsen the situation. The events presented in the movie are far from being convincing. The character development looks pretty awful as well. If wasn't for Liotta acting, the movie would be just a painful watching experience. However, despite the fact that his acting saved it from being unwatchable, it wasn't enough to save the film from being just a little more than awful. Yeah, it has a few 'highlight' moments which are worth....my 50 cents. But acting alone does not make a film. In my opinion, if you are planing to watch this film, don't. It has nothing interesting or good apart from the acting, so just don't waste your time. 3.8/10

fuzaporlapiza This ain't no bad movie but, in my opinion, a blockbuster neither. It's a story about a messed up ex criminal who's trying hard to start all over again. He found himself a nice woman and got a honest job. He does very well until his old partner in crime is released from jail. This bad hearted ex partner in crime doesn't accept that others build up a decent life and starts to do extreme damage to them.The movie could have been better if there was a little bit of humor in it, it's just so serious that I got a little bored. The story is nasty but the thrilling moments hardly kept me focused.This movie is worth watching if you don't expect much and if you're interested in the violent world of drugs and crime. There's even a little chunk of drama present.

Perry Bee I am just so sick and tired of these over rated ratings on IMDb, and this other piece of rubbish is just proof of it. A rating of 9.4 should have been a dead give away, and the fact it stars a washed up Hollywood star, and set in Australia. sure there are some, and I say some good Aussie films, but this is not one of them.And having such a high ratings on here and not hearing about all those potential Oscars that go with such a high rating film is just more proof that things are not what they seem.I am the only one to blame for seeing this rubbish, but I was mislead, so people be warned, this is rubbish! And how did drugie Ray Liotta get into Australia? anyway avoid at all times.1 out of 10
