Mr Patriotism

This trash director/actor now has found his niche to keep getting funded, make movies about american pride to get the rednecks to flock to your movies even though they all are terrible and generic. His last several movies are all the same type of thing, Lone Survivor, Deep water Horizon, and now his latest one trick pony movie about the The Boston Bombing. Then I read about him accusing some reporter about being a draft dodger during some press thing about that POS Battleship, uh you never served your country Mr. Hollywood, you were too busy blowing movie producers and probably taking it up your butthurt ass in order to secure your place in hollyweird, that has to be it I mean the guy can't act or direct so I can't see any other way. Mel Gibson just made the type of movie this chode wishes he could make, he should go study that movie and see how a real director makes a movie about a true subject in history.

Yeah he is and he's really milking this "for the troops" stuff to make more money thats why I dont like him. He directed some series on history that was on veterans day called "warfighters" and they kept shoe horning him into the commercials standing there with actual people who served and he's blabbing on trying to make himself seem noble when in reality he's almost certainly just using it as a way to make money.

I remember a 30 for 30 documentary he did on Wayne Gretzky and he kept showing himself on screen with Wayne. His ego wouldn't allow him to just film and report on his subject.
