Vashirdfel Simply A Masterpiece
Actuakers One of my all time favorites.
Ariella Broughton It is neither dumb nor smart enough to be fun, and spends way too much time with its boring human characters.
Marva It is an exhilarating, distressing, funny and profound film, with one of the more memorable film scores in years,
rybellus Slater plays a self-help writer who knows nothing about his diamond heisting girlfriend who fakes her own death... First, who in the hell approved this screenplay for anything more than toilet paper? Second, who hired an old Dick Dale type guitarist to play the same pathetic surfer riff throughout the entirety of the film? This was such a redundant and broken turd of a film. There really is nothing good to say about it... except that it makes most other bad movies look a little bit better. Oh, and if you really hate someone then you should recommend this atrocity and laugh when they call you up and tell you what a supreme jerk you are.
joker-101 Yes, Mr. Slater, has finally done it. After a brief comeback in the series "My own Worst Enemy", the show was nice in the beginning, but seeing this, maybe it was a good thing they canceled it.The Acting is just horrible. If I need to make a description of the acting in this movie, then you can probably just go and see Kindergarden kids try to act out any action movie, and you will probably enjoy it more.The action scenes are below lame and who ever is the choreographer for the "fight" scenes, should really go and see some action movies or at least check out his own work. What was he trying to say? that everybody with a gun is a complete moron? Cut scenes in the middle of the fights just make you want to know where the hell is the continuity?I tried to watch it just because I like Christian Slater, but I broke after 30 minutes. It will appear that he managed to hit rock bottom and then started digging.I want my 30 minutes back!
zeevshemer I can't believe Cuba Downey Jr. would stoop this low. Even Slater who is not a great actor to begin with, but has some charm, was absolutely awful in this flick. One of the most annoying aspects of this waste-of-time was the music in the background. What was that?I admit the first 15 min I thought it was going somewhere, but in not time it was clear it was time to pull the plug.The premise wasn't all that bad. A typical action/suspense plot were a husband does not know the true identity of his wife. But everything about it was wrong. You won't know how bad the movie is, until you've invested a good 15 to 20 minutes. The fighting scenes were ridiculous and Slater's bad acting just aggravated the situation.
Pumpkin_Man This movie was actually quite better than I was expecting. It has plenty of suspense, action, and comedy. It's kind of like the opposite version of True Lies. Christian Slater stars as an author named Wes Wilson. On the night of a party, his fiancé, Samantha is kidnapped. A year has passed, and he is still haunted by that night. At a book signing, he meets Nichole and they slowly become a couple. Wes is soon approached by a man named Isaac who keeps asking where the diamonds are. When Wes finds out that Samantha is still alive, he learns that she is actually a spy. Wes, Samantha, and Nichole must stop Isaac before he gets what he wants. I highly recommend LIES & ILLUSIONS!!!
