I watched this on HBO the other night for the hell of it. I had remembered the critics hating it and it being a flop but thought, oh well, why not give it a go.
Holy bajeezas is this movie awful. I suggest, neigh, I demand it be on HDTGM!
The whole thing just feels wrong. The first thing you'll recognize is, "Wow, this is Men in Black, like, exactly Men in Black." The rest of the movie that unfolds in front of you and leaves you sitting there wondering WTF just happened.
If you were to tell me that I would be rooting for the deaths of both Ryan Reynolds' and Jeff Bridges' characters about 20 minutes in I wouldn't believe you, but I was (but they can't die...because they are dead...damn you RIPD!) You can easily tell both actors are embarrassed to be in this movie. Ryan, poor sweet Ryan, what the hell happened to your movie career
The humor is humorless, the effects look like they are from 1997, and the way the film moves along is so illogical I am convinced it was both written and filmed by a 10-year-old.
This is a must review for HDTGM.
