Excellent, Without a doubt!!
A lot of fun.
It is a whirlwind of delight --- attractive actors, stunning couture, spectacular sets and outrageous parties.
The acting in this movie is really good.
Just watch and enjoy. It was just a fun movie that's not a sequel.
Hard to believe three perfectly capable actors signed on for this project. Did they not read the script? We're they just in it for the paycheck. There simply is nothing about this film that makes it worth watching (although I did). Poorly acted, miserably directed, badly written. Just. Stay. Away.
Nothing against Jones or Freeman (his voiceover on a variety of science docs are good), and I've seen most of what they've done. So, the only way this film is made is if the aforementioned are short on cash. Dialogue is middle school level; action/drama (thankfully not much of it, and the rest was mostly run time with talking heads) has been done before and much much better. Typical good guy/bad buy team up to best the adversary, and who cared. The rest of the screen time was a lot of geriatric oldies checking out slightly younger geriatric females w/tired old lines.
This is an APPALLINGLY bad film. The story line is totally unbelievable. It's 90 minutes of watching two men in their 70's trying to act like they are 50. They can barely walk. High speed chases, seducing women, snake wrangling and fight scenes....totally unbelievable from start to finish. Even the continuity is poor. When she is in the back of the van check out how the rope around her moves from her neck to her shoulders to her neck and then disappears. How the hell did they raise $22 million to make this drivel? The line "I got your girl" talking about Rene Russo who is 65 years old was actually the only time I laughed during this so called 'comedy'. I'm currently typing this while it's on.....I'm not missing much.
