From Paris with Love

[Mycroftbrett]

Wow! It started out bad and managed to get worse in a consistant, downward-spiral of predictable dialouge and plot "twists".

The last scene was so utterly stupid, that I actually watched it again to convince myself that it wasn't a hallucination.

It's a must watch for any aspiring writer.

I've probably watched Robot Monster 20 times so watching a single scene twice isn't that big a deal.

I used to watch Johnny Mnemonic a bunch of times for this one scene where he flips out and demands a sandwich. Sometimes the worst movies can have truly awesome scenes.

That said, I'm not convinced From Paris, With Love is one of those movies.

Re: From Paris with Love

Yeah, this was all kinds of awful. Shockingly inept on a variety of levels....

Won't say how many times I've watched CHOPPING MALL. It's more than twice.

Oh hell yes. Spoiler below:

Where all the women dressed in orange run off because John-Rhys-Meyers is waving a gun, but for some reason his wife-to-be just stops instead of running off with them. We all know it's so they can have an "emotional" stand-off, but it was just so contrived. The whole film was pretty poor.

I thought the action stuff sucked, but JRM's character had more character than the average Hollywood action flick. They spend at least a minute on him dealing with killing a man, and one of those twists that may or may not be stupid creates a messy emotional scene for him.

Didn't think the film was good, but thought it was better than it's trailer.

Someone needs to tell Travolta that overacting is not the same as being funny.

Dude, I love that movie. Yes, it's bad, but you just can't help but love it.

Remember the cheesy tagline?

"Where shopping can cost you an arm and a leg."

Hahha! Awesome.
