Also, if you listen to the scenes where the baby is supposed to be crying.. you'll hear the cries of a 3 year old girl, rather than an actual baby's cry. The baby never cried once in this film and every time they actually showed the baby, it was just sleeping. I guess, the best performance in this movie was the baby's performance, and all it did was sleep. Honest review on a film that could've been made a lot better but failed in every way possible.Matthttp://www.youtrippy.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8293273378239831747.post-44693925169813121162011-08-14T10:10:20.678-07:002011-08-14T10:10:20.678-07:00Everybody in the world wants to bugger Amber Heard...Everybody in the world wants to bugger Amber Heard, that incredible bird is one of the hottest babes of all-time ! ! !.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8293273378239831747.post-51380564011626614002011-08-06T10:19:11.379-07:002011-08-06T10:19:11.379-07:00@Bob Ignizio: I hear ya man, I had fun with the fi...@Bob Ignizio: I hear ya man, I had fun with the film, it was fast paced and it made me laugh and all, but I cant in good conscience really say it's a well made film, you know what I mean?

I think you're taking the movie way more seriously than it takes itself. The scene where Cage blows away a small army of bad guys while engaged in coitus alone is worth the rental.Bob Igniziohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03630416222197419152noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8293273378239831747.post-38590771036178733292011-08-05T13:35:54.222-07:002011-08-05T13:35:54.222-07:00Agree, movie would've been better off if Cage ...Agree, movie would've been better off if Cage had been in his wild mode.

Now, that would've been very cool.<br /><br />And yeah, the Satanists singing in the church was pretty funny, now that you mention it. I also thought Amber Heard was pretty good as the tough chick even though, as you pointed out in you review, she had nothing to do with the story! She just tagged along with Cage for additional eye candy, I suppose.<br /><br />The film made a lot of odd choices, which I liked.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08164105442273577128noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8293273378239831747.post-526131277829200352011-08-05T06:26:46.280-07:002011-08-05T06:26:46.280-07:00Neil: I'm sure you'll get a laugh out of i...Neil: I'm sure you'll get a laugh out of it, it's guaranteed! <br /><br />You know, the minute I saw it I thought of your Summer of Satan blog-a-thon, it would fit perfectly in there.

The irony of Cage being pursued by a nemesis called The Accountant is awesome - I wondered if that was added in rewrites once Cage had signed on.<br /><br />I might have to cover this as part of my Summer of Satan retrospective. I'll approach it with low expectations, thought.

I mean, that truck hurling through the air...wow, pretty awful! The effect with the God Killer, what a bad effect! I wonder if these cheesy effects where somehow better had I seen the movie in theaters as opposed to dvd? <br /><br />I laughed a lot with that scene where Cage is screwing that horny waitress while shooting all the bad guys, but it had been done before in quite a few movies. <br /><br />David Morse was given so little to do in this movie, he's such a good actor too. Agree about Fichtner beeing the best thing about the movie. <br /><br />YOu know what made me laugh the most? How so many things just dont make sense, like for example, that scene where they drive into hell, and the bridge behind them starts to blow up for no reason whatsoever except to possibly end the movie with a 3-d effect? I was like why is the bridge blowing up as they are driving through it?? I dont get it!! <br /><br />Another scene that was hilarious: the church with the satanists singing what was supposed to sound like a christian song....ha ha ha I would have known they were satanist as soon as I heard them sing that shitty ass song!! <br /><br />You know what, I think I'll give this one a re-watch whenever I'm in a shitty mood.Franco Macabrohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10994905312221715861noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8293273378239831747.post-19049743557596621372011-08-04T18:32:41.046-07:002011-08-04T18:32:41.046-07:00Oh, I agree it's a bad film but intentionally ...Oh, I agree it's a bad film but intentionally so. At least, that's the impression I got. The bridge scene was pretty crazy and funny. I would say that I enjoyed the film for the sheer fact that it kept me entertained.

I wasnt expecting anything less than crapola, yet thats what I got. <br /><br />Still, I had some fun with it in spite of its badness, I laughed all the way through, which is why I gave it a one and not a zero.<br /><br />The scene that had me cracking up was the bridge scene...I mean, the bridge went on and on forever and ever! Ha! The director kind of forgot all about continuity and the flow of a scene...I mean here we had both characters talking to each other from car to car, and the bridge just keeps on going and going and going....and then when the scene ends and we see the bridge, it really wasnt that long at all.

Wow. I dunno, I enjoyed it for what it was: loud, trashy, exploitation crapola. Plus, you've got to give it up for William Fichtner who was nothing short of awesome in the film, moving through it while doing his best Christopher Walken impersonation.<br /><br />Maybe I was just in the right mood when I watched it.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08164105442273577128noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8293273378239831747.post-52908778110858917562011-08-04T04:19:14.482-07:002011-08-04T04:19:14.482-07:00Odenat: Heres the deal: it's a bad movie, no d...Odenat: Heres the deal: it's a bad movie, no doubts about it, but one thing is for sure, it'll make you laugh.
