McDuck 0 #1 July 22, 2006 Let me just say that the only thing that kept me from walking out of this incredibly overdone, almost slapstick-y bore of a film was Uma and her complete grasp of what a psycho ex girlfriend with super powers can do to make your life a never ending pants-wetter. "Why did G-Girl throw a shark at us?" Not enough to redeem this piece of tripe that seemed as if it were written by high-school freshmen, but funny as a one-liner. Save your duckets for something worthwhile...like "The Fountain"...when it makes the scene.Kevin - Sonic Beef #5 - OrFun #28 "I never take myself too seriously, 'cuz everybody know fat birds don't fly." - FLC Online communities: proof that people never mature much past high school.

McDuck 0 #4 July 22, 2006 The dialogue seemed forced, especially in the case of Luke Wilson, whom I am a fan of, and there were times when I honestly wondered if this wasn't a junior-high film project. Even Eddie Izzard, who has given some STELLAR performances in the past, seemed almost to understand how lame his role in the grand scheme of this film was and sent his performance in via teletype. I was underwhelmed. Oh, and if you deliberately leave your cell phone on in the theater and answer calls in the middle of a movie, FUCK YOU STRAIGHT TO FELCHING HELL.

McDuck 0 #6 July 22, 2006 QuoteI think it should be a law that you can haul off and punch those people square in the face. See? This is EXACTLY why I'm not allowed to have super powers...or anything like Michael Valentine in Heinlein's "Stranger in a Strange Land". It'd be just me and a few dozen people I can stand at that moment in time.

McDuck 0 #8 July 24, 2006 I'm looking forward to seeing that one. Can yo believe that my brother (younger) has yet to see Clerks I? Even my sister, who's younger than him, has seen it. But back to the matter at hand, MSEG tried way too hard on too many fronts, and the performances, with the sole exception of Uma, seemed deliberately phoned-in. I've never seen Luke Wilson act as if he's trying to impress a grade-school girlfriend before.Kevin - Sonic Beef #5 - OrFun #28 "I never take myself too seriously, 'cuz everybody know fat birds don't fly." - FLC Online communities: proof that people never mature much past high school.
