It's always a yes for me for most action comedy films, especially
when they star Ryan Reynold's and Samuel Jackson. Did you see the trailer for
this film...lol? Every time I watched the trailer I was cracking up. So I was
quite surprised when I noticed critics bashing it. I don't read critic reviews,
I just look at their scores, and the scores this film received were far below
what it looked like it deserved. However we all know critics aren't regular
movie-goers like you and myself. In my opinion they've lost touch on what
audiences really enjoy. But no worries, that's why I'm here...lol. I admit the
low scores dampened my excitement but it still wasn't enough to keep me from
purchasing a ticket.
Not sure why critics dumped on
this film so badly, because it had all the ingredients I love in a film like
this. This film didn't fall short on comedy or action. It wasn't the best film
I've seen, as some scenes were a bit over the top, but it served its purpose
very well and was fun an entertaining to watch throughout. The back and forth
between Reynold's and Jackson is enough in itself to see this film. They were
absolutely hilarious and great together. Salma Hayek was the icing on the
cake...lol. The action scenes were at times a little unbelievable, but still
fun to watch. There wasn't a moment where I wasn't totally engaged in this
film, and that counts for something.
Not the best written film
you've seen, but do you usually watch action films for the writing??? The
action was great and the comedic performances were on point. I laughed out loud
and this film kept my interest until the credits rolled. This is a fun and
entertaining film that I think you would enjoy, be it matinee, Redbox, or a
date night out...B+
