Inability to Suspend Disbelief

1) Suggest you stay away from grammer Nazis
2) Not sure what your point is, but the only reason for seeing Memento was for those who wish to know what it feels like to have Alzheimer's. I'll pass on that, thanks.
3) I want to be entertained when I see a movie. Stupid things like cops not using spike strips makes me hit the "go-away" box and find something else to watch. Of course, that would have ruined the Corvette theme... You ever see the movie, "Tank"? That was sort of fun at the roadblock scene.

it's a freakin action movie not a documentary

I have a post on my facebook page describing this moment as the exact point at which I could no longer watch. My friend looked at me and I said "ok that is all I need to see", and she agreed. I decided she needed to experience the unrated version of Sex Drive.....which I deem the funniest movie seemingly no one has heard of. She had never heard of it, and was not disappointed.

Anyway I just thought it was funny half way across the country someone else was reacting the exact same way to the exact same scene. Its very very rare (like I cant think of another time in life) that I call it quits on a movie, so to do it at the exact same moment you pointed out is pretty telling I think.

The reason they will make money from this movie is that people will go to see Arnold, expect a nice body count, and most won't care if the movie police don't use spike strips. I certainly wasn't expecting a documentary, but the movie just didn't pass the stupidity test, I couldn't get lost in it, and I found that I wasn't entertained. I guess having a little law enforcement and military background makes my bar just a little higher than a lot of others.

I had fun with it...laughing at how bad Arnie looked in it. And its not that he's 65, but he's 65 and trying to sell me on an action movie.




-only uneducated minds are not open to any ideas other than their own.

Sorry, I know this is an old post - I actually liked this movie and gave it a 6.5 (7 being my max cap for action movies because, IMO, they tend to be stupid). Yeah, when the corvette flipped around and casually knocked a friggin' Hummer out of the way, I almost turned it off - my ex had a corvette, and that thing got scratched when he set a laundry basket on it while it was in the garage (still a hot car). I happen to love Ji-Woon Kim's direction, the tracking and fast shots, showing bullets leaving the gun, etc. I wasn't disappointed here.

Anyways, just real quick about the deputies being totally clueless - I lived in *beep* New Mexico for a regrettable year, and the deputies there had to take a six week firearms/investigative training course. That is completely 100% of the required training. No police academy, no associates degree, and gawd forbid anyone go to a "real" four-year college. I was horrified that these people, who were barely literate high school bullies (I would ordinarily not generalize, but like I said, I was there for a whole year and saw how the treated people or had trouble figuring out the math to leave a tip at the restaurant I worked in), were carrying weapons around and "keeping the peace." So a couple of small town deputies in a tiny border town may very well have been that incompetent. If they'd been in any type of sizable city, I would call shenanigans too.

They're coming to get you, Barbara!

Correctomundo on all points.....

This film was awful plain and simple, and its only teenagers and morons bigging it up ,because they havent taken the time to broaden their viewing pallet with such things that are on par of the brilliance of Breaking Bad and the Wire.

These are the reason why we have This is the End, Pineapple Express , Revolution etc etc
