if you think about it.....


freddie prinze had never really had a role that could prove his acting in,ppl always give him crap about it,but hes never really had a "great script".I mean,think about this, hes been in shes all that, scooby doo, ect. noone could make those roles believable. so,come on freddie!its time for you to step it up and choose good roles! who knows,maybe this'll be his year.....

It's really hard to find good roles and at the same time, get in them! So he might have been trying, I dunno.

Hate to be the bearer of bad news...but I saw this movie tonight. Apparently it was the very first screening of it.

The story itself was so-so but the acting was pretty bad by everyone. Especially Freddie - he had this horrible, horrible accent that just ruined any chance of me buying him as a tough guy.

reply

Aww not good news :( Well, screening's - aren't they like test shoots or something? They test an audience, and correct the mistakes? How was Devon? :)

He was okay. but very small role.

Oh, I forgot to mention - achston kutcher or however you spell that idiot's name is in it.

He's in it for about 2 minutes, he plays a transvestite.

when is this movie due out to the public? do you know?

reply

Thats not Ashton. His name is Leicester Lancaster. And Frddie doesn't have an accent in it.

reply

ha! really? wow. He really really looks like him though!

I don't know what you call it. maybe it's not officially an "accent" but it's definately not the regular voice you usually hear from him in all his other movies. If that's the way he normally sounds, then, that's sad.

either way, he sounded really really annoying.

So, how was Angus Macfadyen's performance in the film (he portrays 'Tenderloin Tony'). And do you have any idea when it's going to be released anywhere? Thanks!

reply

If i remember correctly - he's not that great. That reminds me, towards the end of the film his character becomes a bit confusing. Without going into much detail - he acts a certain way but then it's almost like he's trying to fake it, but then he's not?? It was never clear - but i guess that's okay being that he wasn't main part of the ending.

I think I read somewhere that Blockbuster was scheduled to release it in the fall? Direct to video? I hope so - for the actor's in this movie's sake. It's pretty bad.

reply

No, he is most definately trying to do an accent. New York or thereabouts I believe, and no, it is not very good.

reply

you dummy, he lived in NYC for nine years, lol. check your facts

reply

Are you kidding me? He sounds like Rocky *beep* Blaboa.

How did he do as a transvestite?

reply

I think the transvestite is HOT!
