MILLION DOLLAR BABY
I think I would be more inclined to see this movie if it were called
The Six Million Dollar Baby and were about Clint Eastwood's
hilarious mishaps while trying to raise a baby with bionic enhancements.
I would probably be more inclined to see this movie if it were Million
POUND Baby and were about Clint Eastwood's hilarious mishaps while
trying to raise a giant baby that the stork delivered to him by mistake.
But Million Dollar Baby? The story of Clint Eastwood's hilarious
mishaps while trying to raise a baby that is so rich that it always wears
a monocle and top hat and owns several railroads and a chain of hotels?
Not interested.
SON OF THE MASK
A few years after the general populace has mostly forgotten about the
existence of a somewhat popular movie seems the perfect time to make a
ridiculously horrible-looking sequel with none of the original character
or talent involved. What's that old saying "Mis-strike after the iron has
cooled?" Hmmm... no, that's not it.
HITCH
I think it's a bad idea for the director of Sweet Home Alabama,
Anna and the King, and The Amy Fisher Story to direct a
movie with a title that's going to remind a lot of people of the one of
the most respected film directors of all time. Comparison is not your
friend, Andy Tennant. Not your friend at all.
THE PACIFIER
Gracious, but Vin Diesel has gotten to the Kindergarten Cop phase
of his career rather quickly hasn't he? Let's hope he just keeps up this
pace a into a speedy obscurity.
ARE WE THERE YET?
At the bottom of the barrel? Yes, we are.
