last action hero is great by Jubba	Jun 27th, 2008 05:57:45 PM
it is a lot of fun to watch, even if not a "great movie"
um...pull my finger? by theredtoad	Jun 27th, 2008 05:58:08 PM
CHILDREN OF FUCKING MEN! I'll go back to trolling The Gap.
last action hero by redkamel	Jun 27th, 2008 06:03:14 PM
last action hero made me laugh actually of was so damn crazy. Hancock looks likes its going to blow balls. Besides I'd rather see Arnold at his worst than uh...will smith.
Main reason I will skip it in the theater by Heckles	Jun 27th, 2008 06:05:42 PM
It's because of the trailer. The first one had the movie marketed as a superhero comedy. Looked cool. Reminded me of The Tick. The next batch of trailers peg this as a serious hero movie. I can't stand it when studios do this. If they can't figure out how to sell this film, then I don't need to buy it.
i won't see this by Charlie Murphy	Jun 27th, 2008 06:06:02 PM
at least, i won't PAY to see this. I think it looks pretty lame, but i wouldn't say no if a friend wanted to go see it.

Last Action Hero is NOT a disaster by Rocklover79	Jun 27th, 2008 06:42:16 PM
The annoying kid aside, that movie is a damn clever parody of the action genre. Don't understand why it gets shit on so much.
Brunomac... by all	Jun 27th, 2008 06:54:25 PM
you...are just an absolute riot! A real whiz-bang fer sher riot!
debuted on "The Hogan Family" ? by Damage_Inc	Jun 27th, 2008 07:06:02 PM
Bateman was a child star way before that.
IT'S YOUR MOVE! by mrbeaks	Jun 27th, 2008 07:13:07 PM
Bateman's best TV work until ARRESTED DEVELOPMENT. I wonder how it holds up.
mrbeaks by Damage_Inc	Jun 27th, 2008 07:14:48 PM
Fuck, yeah! I didn't think anyone would remember that show. You know, it got canceled after only 10 episodes. That was a shame.
"Something Is Rotten in the State of Denmark..." by mrbeaks	Jun 27th, 2008 07:15:23 PM
"... and Hamlet is taking out the trash." There's some funny shit in LAST ACTION HERO. It's, like, fifteen percent of a great movie. Good luck sitting through the whole 130 minutes.
Rubber Baby Buggy Bumpers by Damage_Inc	Jun 27th, 2008 07:19:32 PM
Nuff said.
Well this is a pleasant suprise by AlwaysThere	Jun 27th, 2008 07:19:48 PM
Thank you for posting these reviews.
Yikes! Spoiler Box please.. by Ironmuskrat	Jun 27th, 2008 07:30:03 PM
Wow, that first review pretty much gives the whole movie away. I know most reviews have some spoilage in them, but that first review was a killer. Some people are going to be pissed =)
"This the movie is definetly better than I am Legend", by Trazadone	Jun 27th, 2008 08:51:13 PM
This person must be a fucking idiot.
Reviews aside, I'll drop some clinks+ for this cinema by Shub-Wankalot	Jun 27th, 2008 08:55:48 PM
I'll assess the flick and see what's the fuss. If I come out satisfied and entertained, then that covers the toll for a popcorn flick.
Last Action Hero by mithrandir16	Jun 27th, 2008 09:06:53 PM
Last Action Hero was certainly no disaster. Ian McKellen as Death! It was a ton of fun. Sorry, Richard Stark, but it might not quite count as an "American classic," but it's still damn good!
No need to dis LAST ACTION HERO by Harry Weinstein	Jun 27th, 2008 09:30:27 PM
Come on now, stop picking on PURPLE ROSE OF ARNOLD. That film was fun then and it's fun now. It just opened at the wrong, wrong time. Fucking dinosaurs.
Whatchoo folks think about Berg's DUNE? by Dogmatic	Jun 27th, 2008 09:31:32 PM
THose that have seen Hancock already and his other movies...i havent seen one yet...you think this guy has the right to really do fracking DUNE the RIGHT way? Using the Lynch movie's designs and the mini-series adherance to the novel minus all the ass-worthy acting? Can this Berg fella do it? Gosh I hope so
Who the fuck is Mike Epps? by fiester	Jun 27th, 2008 09:39:42 PM
Seriously? Is that DJ Jazzy Jeff's real name or something?
CockHand! by fiester	Jun 27th, 2008 09:44:32 PM
I would totally watch that movie as described above by Richard Stark.
But mrbeaks is incorrect: by fiester	Jun 27th, 2008 09:47:28 PM
For surely Bateman's best tv work was done on Silver Spoons. That is not up for argument.
Bateman's best tv work was Albert 2.0 on Little House. by Shermdawg	Jun 27th, 2008 10:02:27 PM

CockHand 2: The Leaking by MisterE	Jun 27th, 2008 10:12:29 PM

CockHand 3: Enter the Fist by MisterE	Jun 27th, 2008 10:13:16 PM

Just to note... by MisterE	Jun 27th, 2008 10:15:29 PM
...I'm looking forward to seeing Handcock in the theater, and I don't usually go out for Will Smith movies.
Richard Stark... by MisterE	Jun 27th, 2008 10:18:26 PM
...it's your movie pitch, so you get to choose the title. "The Leakening" it is, then.
This bastard is directing a new Dune? by MJohnson	Jun 27th, 2008 10:39:27 PM
God dammit.
Richard Stark, great MANOS reference by krullboyisback	Jun 27th, 2008 10:40:49 PM
Thanks God for MST3K. . . that trash film was made in the armpit city of El Paso, texas. What is really great is that MANOS is spanish for "hands", so technically the name of the movie is "Hands, the Hands of Fate"
IN the new Dune, Paul Atrides will have Cockhands by krullboyisback	Jun 27th, 2008 10:42:43 PM
and the Worms will be commanded by Charize Theron's worm clit
And Baron Harkonnen will be played by Jack Black by krullboyisback	Jun 27th, 2008 10:45:04 PM

In the New Dune, Sting's character from the 1984 film by krullboyisback	Jun 27th, 2008 10:50:00 PM
will be played by Sting
"Peter Berg to me is like Michael Mann" by RaveX	Jun 27th, 2008 10:53:56 PM
OK... now move along, crazy person.
Manos by DennisMM	Jun 27th, 2008 11:28:20 PM
I'm particularly fond of Torgo (as who is not?). to the point of making myself a Torgo staff for Halloween use and putting mini speakers in my jacket pockets so I could stagger while accompanied by the haunting "Torgo theme." Poor John Reynolds offed himself later that year, never having seen his performance or heard the bizarrely dubbed dialogue by directed Hal Warren. I salute you, Mr. Reynolds!
Dammit by DennisMM	Jun 27th, 2008 11:53:18 PM
directOR. I hate not having an edit function. At least I have paragraph breaks!
Michael Mann IS the Kwisatz Haderach!!! by Dogmatic	Jun 28th, 2008 12:04:36 AM

hancock is full of vulgor.

Damn You Michael Bay
Last Action Hero is AWESOME beaks... by Stupendous Man	Jun 28th, 2008 03:56:20 AM
Its one big satire on how silly action movies really are. Its 1000% better than most of the 'action movies' that we get today...heck its more entertaining than die hard 4 was. The only reason this movie wont tank is cos of will smith...but i aint seeing it!
Yeah, I don't mind Last Action Hero by NomoredirtyjokespleaseweareYanks	Jun 28th, 2008 05:00:41 AM
I love Charles Dance in that film.
"gritty, and full of vulgor." by henrydalton	Jun 28th, 2008 06:00:58 AM
That's my phrase of the day right there...
this movie reminded me of meteor man by birdy birdman	Jun 28th, 2008 09:38:58 AM
except meteor man was better...seriously...do NOT go see this film
shane black wrote last action hero by seabiscuits	Jun 28th, 2008 10:50:28 AM
he's been my hero since i saw lethal weapon in the late 80s. and if you read any of his recent interviews he is a smart mother fucker.
Unusual by BDT	Jun 28th, 2008 10:58:49 AM
ok movie, great acting on Smith's part...a real departure from his usual stuff showing a depth I didn't expect. REALLY bad directing and total shit for cinematography (the kinetic and constant movement and unexplained/unnecessary close ups and angles had me quite sick to my stomach not to mention being distracting to the point of almost ruining the movie-going experience). This is too bad because, all in all, I sort of liked the movie and mainly the Hancock character. The strange camera work and inexplicable elements of character and story development make this movie's flaws hard to overlook, but I'd say I enjoyed the movie more than I didn't. A solid 5.5 out of 10 for this one.
will smith made 1 good album 'he's the dj...' by seabiscuits	Jun 28th, 2008 11:03:43 AM
and 1 good movie 'enemy of the state' good for him. but everything else i've seen him in i didn't like.
oh except for 'made in america' by seabiscuits	Jun 28th, 2008 11:06:45 AM
"theres a white dude at the door" just kidding
Last Action Hero wasn't a ... by RockMSockM	Jun 28th, 2008 10:46:26 PM
...disaster. It was the disaster that disasters wipe off their shoes.
If you're going to criticize, please learn to fucking write. by Sappers Forward	Jun 29th, 2008 10:26:56 AM
Some of you self proclaimed critics write like drunk 3rd graders.
It's Your Move! by DustinBones	Jun 29th, 2008 03:21:09 PM
Damn I couldn't think of the name. I was thinking the exact same thing, "Would it hold up?", unfortunately I think it will be about on par with "Square Pegs".
3rd grade drunkards... by Project424	Jun 29th, 2008 03:41:40 PM
can be a barrel of monkeys, if ya' do it right.
Seen It - decent flick by RobFromBackEast	Jun 29th, 2008 06:22:05 PM
Solid action film that's a bit uneven but still good fun. Smith and Berg have both made better films, but this will please the masses. Some fantastic lines from Smith all the way through....
OK THAT'S IT by Wonko	Jun 29th, 2008 08:39:29 PM
I'm bloody well fed up with people hating on Last Action Hero. That movie kicks ass on so many levels, I just don't understand the animosity towards it. "I've just killed somebody, I did it on purpose"
Last Action Hero by Lost Jarv	Jun 30th, 2008 05:22:10 AM
The big problem with it- Charles Dance can bring back any villain so he brings back the Guy Ahnold has already clobbered? Loadashite.
last action hero is great by ironic_name	Jun 30th, 2008 07:07:59 AM
the last 3 revs are plants
sequel information by paulyd30	Jun 30th, 2008 10:32:26 AM
I cannot wait for the sequel: Bankok starring Bobby Lee from Mad TV
I'm surprised... by Alkeoholic77	Jun 30th, 2008 12:07:32 PM
The movie stars Charlize Theron who was Will Smith's former wife in the movie and not one single Hand-Cock joke... I'm proud of those reviewers.
The posters... by Alkeoholic77	Jun 30th, 2008 12:09:51 PM
not so much.
Charlize Theron... by C00L DUD3	Jun 30th, 2008 04:28:39 PM
is a big reason for getting my behind in there, to see this. I think she actually looks even better than she did in Cider House... Interesting pairing with Smith, as well. I want to see her as a superhero, tho...she could whoop my a$$, anyday!!!!
Hancock... by somethingcool	Jul 1st, 2008 12:14:15 AM
will suck. I want this movie to fail so Will Smith will try and make good movies.
