There's action movies where they pull of extremely cool crap and it just <i>feels</i> right (Eg Matrix), and then you get movies like this where everything you see is so over the top it feels like the director personally went down to the theatre where it was being shown and slapped every single patron across the face, stole their wallet and kicked their dog.
you know... some of the things in matrix: reloadededed were kinda like that. the first one was mind bending, profound.. but the 2nd seemed like a cash cow job. what with the useless grind/sex scene, etc.
im being dragged to see it but im not complaining.......

I heard a great, scathing review on the radio. "It's kinda like a battleship - you can't help but stare in awe at what it does and what it took to make it, but you don't really want to have anything to do with it."
Hah! The movie made 38 million the first weekend and Diaz alone got 20 million to do the movie, let's see 10 mill for Lu, 10 mill for Barrymore, 4-5 mill for Mac, 3-6 mill for Moore, 80-95 mill for production. Yep I'd say it was a disaster.

The movie would have made more if they had just released it as pron.
Still 38 mil is pathetic. Lethal Weapon 4 made more on its first weekend.
"It's flied lice you plick!"
PS: The only other new release that weekend was 28 days later. So it had very little competetion too, next weekend it's T3 so it can forget about making any money.
Other three? I thought there were only two others...
Either way, I think all three cast members are a bit ugly. Drew Barrymore, despite being thin, always looks fat to me. Cameron Diaz looks like a fifty year old woman plastered in makeup to cover the wrinkles. Lucy Lui (spelling?) looks... well, just looks plain ugly: her eyes seem kinda sunk inside her head, more so than normal.

Since people are obviously not enjoying themselves here, I would lock the thing if I had the power. Or threaten with it at least. <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif'><!--endemo-->

That helicopter scene was hilerious, it seemed like somone kept resetting the distance they are from the ground. Then the helicopter starts in 5 seconds flat! Wow!
The other funny scene:
They just get done taking out maybe 15 guys, then Barrymore gets seperated from them and turns into a quivering weakling who can't even get up off the ground while the bad guy SLOWLY walks towards her from 100ft away. Did I mention this bad guy also walks through a wall of fire for no real reason?

but she still is up there in the f*ckin hot category.
You realise this film is actually 25 other films which were pretty good held together by........ crap. Lots of crap. And bad acting.
I would quite like to know what made them think the first one NEEDED a sequel???
