Wordiezett So much average
Ensofter Overrated and overhyped
Spidersecu Don't Believe the Hype
Erica Derrick By the time the dramatic fireworks start popping off, each one feels earned.
garthlotel There are a lot of flaws in this movie - making light of domestic violence is a glaring one - but the genuine chemistry between the two leads kept me interested and caring about their outcome. Both Butler and Aniston have great screen presence and they make the most of their characters (a situation where both characters would not be likeable if these two actors hadn't played them, basically). But if you like these two, you will probably be able to enjoy the film.
mm-39 The Bounty Hunter sounded like a great idea, but did not transfer well to film. The beginning was strong. Butler the ex-husband gets to arrest his ex-wife Aniston when his wife skips bail. There is a cat an mouse game as Butler toys with his ex! The beginning of the movie gained my attention. Regrettably the middle of The Bounty Hunter is a patch work of comic devices where some scenes are funny, and other scenes bomb. The ending has a mix of corrupt cops and comedy which mixes two disjointed sub-plots together. The Bounty Hunter's ending is more cruel than romantic. I found the ending tries to hard to be funny. The Bounty Hunter is a good idea for a movie, but lacks in execution. Five or six stars out of 10!
Daniel I hate imposing my opinion upon other people that have not watched a movie, but I really think about myself that this one is kind of refreshing and non-engaging. We see the famous actors Jennifer and Gerard whose acting is great and they both fit each other in either personal or a common way. What I mean is that both actors are good together and did their job. The plot is little predictable but spicy. It has combined 3 different genres itself that would seem inappropriate in a combination but actually they are completely relevant. I mean the Romance and Action genres that aren't said to be proper when involved together in a movie because few people have seen such movies. In fact, as I said, the plot is literally well made with spicy situations, the action was not complete and straining but because we know this movie is also comedy, all these facts negate the cons of the weaknesses of the action in the film. Moreover, I did not laugh much, despite the movie being comedy, but I did not feel any boredom though. The romance wasn't also redundant so that makes my opinion better, no, it was just diversity among the action comedy elements. In fact I noticed the interchange of genres which makes the movie more entertaining to watch. First you see some funny chases, then some acquiescence among the characters and a spicy development, twisting and unraveling itself, taking the interest of the spectator in. Actually, a very good friend of mine recommended me this movie while we were talking about films and about what had I been watching in those times. I did not have any good expectations but when I watched it, I was pleasantly satisfied. The mixture of the 3 genres was made very well and I personally like it. If you're a fan of action movies please don't expect much because the action components were not many, despite the genre being first listed on it's IMDb wall, and the purpose of the film is not the action itself. If you're a kind of woman or guy liking romantic comedies you should expect more than you do because the movie ends up with romance and is not boring. If you like both the genres you will definitely like the movie. I personally think it has been given a low vote of the film itself and people had had very big expectations, so the liking about the movie among people depends on what have they had expected. If they have expected too much, as a lot did, they will rather find the movie bad, meanwhile the people like me, who expected little will find the movie rather good. This means it is more about of a personal opinion so I thrusted my professional one more.Plot - Little predictable; very good mixture of 3 genres that aren't said to stick together properly but they literally do; few disadvantages and weaknesses in each genre; 7/10Writing - simply fulfilled with subtle humor and refined chasing scenes. 9/10Acting - Butler and Aniston do great job together and fit their characters perfectly. 10/10Presentation - Funny and entertaining; worth watching; not time wasting though it completely relates on the viewer's expectations and preferences. 9/10
Brandon Blackwell A bounty hunter learns that his next target is his ex-wife, a reporter working on a murder cover-up. Soon after their reunion, the always-at-odds duo find themselves on a run-for-their-lives adventure.I really don't understand why I had the urge to sit down and even attempt to watch this, but the Bounty Hunter is closely resembled to Killers, while had gotten a 1. Bounty Hunter is entertainting, and a bit funny, but everything is tumbled down to execution. The directors nor did the screenwriters care anything about what they were doing, and I wasn't too impressed overall. IF you don't care about anything or real film-making, sure, knock yourself out. But just be warned, the film is just another, and another meaning not too special. 3/10.
