SouthernJet Posted March 31, 2008 Share Posted March 31, 2008 Be Kind Rewind: Holy Crap, I thought Nacho Libre was bad!!!!!!!!!!! This might have been the most over the top pretentious piece of crap I have seen in quite awhile. I saw nothing redeeming, nothing funny. I can only imagine Jack Black has gotten big enough now to push through a POS like this and in his mind think others will enjoy. It was so poorly done, so poorly scripted that it was painful to watch. It MIGHT , and I say, might , have been a funny 10 minute skit on SNL. Redoing movies in 10 minutes format to save a video store, please,, It sucked..do not go, dont even waste 90 minutes when it is free on TV. 0's Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thor99 Posted March 31, 2008 Share Posted March 31, 2008 I enjoyed it, but I also like 'The Sound of Thunder'. I did love 'Death at a Funeral', though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I did love 'Death at a Funeral', though. i enjoyed it also, thor i thought it was funny.. i do like jack black though.. i loved the idea and just thought it was odd and quirky. deep it is not, but it put a smile on my face. i guess we disagree on this one, sj Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SouthernJet Posted March 31, 2008 Author Share Posted March 31, 2008 i have to addmit that i didnt see nacho libre.. so it was "new" to me when i say nacho libre i mean another vehichle where jack black is basically doing a adlib movie as camera rolling and thinking everypone else thinks its as funny a she does.. he needs a serious respected comedy quickly or he may start to lose steam,,he is getting a tad 'out there' Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

InstantClassic Posted April 2, 2008 Share Posted April 2, 2008 No disrespect..but movie critics are the most useless people on earth. Everyone has a different opinion, and not all people will like the same movie. Your telling me you, Siskel, or Ebert should tell me whether or not YOU enjoyed a movie or not? Be Kind, Rewind was a great movie..IMO, which is really all that counts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Be Kind, Rewind was a great movie..IMO, which is really all that counts. ughhh, I have had this discussion so many times its starting to bore me.. if you listen to one person u r nuts,, thats why i go by my personal tastes, but I cant go to every movie that comes out,,so i use mega reviewers to get a overall feel of what movie is like,, metacritic takes 30 of top reviewers in country and compiles a score , aka, 3 stars = 75 points, 2 stars = 50 points etc,, this way you have a pretty good take on flick,,not infected by one or two people who hate movie oe love it,,math balances it out.. I NEVER listen to one or two critics, NEVER.. But 20 to 30 gives u a great sample and a pretty good idea if horrid, good or average,,after that its your personal taste that will make u decide.. I will go to any movie, regardless of reviews for certain actors and directors,, but for others, I need to have a semblance of what the flick is bringing to table... i am glad u liked rewind, that is all that counts, many reviewers liked it also, i am not a fan of slapstick humor,,but thats just me.. Again, you cant go to every movie, I go to 2 a week at theater.. http://www.metacritic.com/film/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
