Truly Dreadful Film

If the ambition is to provide two hours of instantly forgettable, popcorn-munching escapism, it succeeds.
Tobias Burrows
It's easily one of the freshest, sharpest and most enjoyable films of this year.

I'm not sure what this movie was even trying for. It's set up like a comedy, except that not one funny thing happens, and it's just too goofy to be considered an adventure. Basically it's just a mess.This movie was released in 2002, but people were trying to make it since 1987, and it looks like all the sets were designed at the beginning. The whole thing looks like an 80s music video. This movie cost $100M (!) and it looks like cheap made for video junk.First of all, it takes place on the Moon, but that's not really relevant at all. I don't expect a movie like this to get the physics right, but they seem to believe gravity is related to air pressure. When people are outside in space suits, they float around in slow motion, but when they're inside, everything behaves like they're on Earth. There are lots of cameos, from Pam Grier to John Cleese, and they all looked like they waited for the check to clear before showing up and lazily reading their parts. I honestly believe John Cleese recorded his part from home. There's a plot of sorts, but it's really just an excuse to have people chase Eddie Murphy and Rosario Dawson.Not so bad it's good, just an hour and a half you won't get back. Skip it.

I found this movie to be thoroughly entertaining. I have no idea why this movie has such poor ratings. Maybe you just have to be a science fiction fan to enjoy it?I like the entire outer space thing. Then there's the vehicles. The robot thing going on. I also don't think the acting is as bad as some people will have you believe.I think it's a brilliant movie and I would gladly watch it again. I'm confused why this movie has such bad reviews. And according to the internet it was a bomb at the box office? Maybe people have no taste.Over time maybe this can be considered a cult classic. Much like other entertaining films like Lifepod.

The Adventures of Pluto Nash (2002): Dir: Ron Underwood / Cast: Eddie Murphy, Rosario Dawson, Jay Mohr, Randy Quaid, Peter Boyle: A likeness to Blade Runner in Disney Land with a cheesy production. It is 2087 on the moon where Pluto Nash, former earthling who spent time in prison for illegal gambling, owns a nightclub and reverses his lifestyle. When he refuses the mob's offer on his nightclub they retaliate. He escapes with a young woman and his trusty robotic bodyguard. Ridiculous plot with lame situations and despite an interesting play on identities in the conclusion it is still one of the worst films of the year. Director Ron Underwood loses control early with laughable special effects. He explored different worlds from various standpoints with City Slickers and Mighty Joe Young. Eddie Murphy is obviously attempting comedy from a different viewpoint but regardless of his efforts this material is never fueled by humour. Rosario Dawson plays a singer who waits tables. So basically she the romantic tease. Randy Quaid overacts as Bruno the robot in what may be the worst role he has ever attempted to tackle. Jay Mohr is cardboard as a pathetic nightclub comedian. Peter Boyle plays a retired cop in what is about as pathetic as every other career choice in this travesty. It's candy-coated garbage that dies down like the battery in Bruno's head. Score: 1 / 10

pluto nash is one of them movies, that was a box office flop, so people like to jump on the bandwagon and say its rubbish, when it is far from it, this is a great eddie murphy movie, and is funny, with a great cast, and a sexy looking rosario dawson, thats a pretty sweet hour and a half to me. most people that badmouthed the movie, didn't even watch it, its just cool to say it isn't good, well let me tell you know, if your a fan of eddie murphy, and why wouldn't you be, then you will enjoy this movie very much, no it isn't one of the best movies of alltime, it isn't even of eddie murphy's best but it is a great comedy, that delivers some good laughs, watch it you'll be surprised
