The greatest movie ever!
... View MoreI wanted to like it more than I actually did... But much of the humor totally escaped me and I walked out only mildly impressed.
... View MoreThis movie tries so hard to be funny, yet it falls flat every time. Just another example of recycled ideas repackaged with women in an attempt to appeal to a certain audience.
... View MoreThe plot isn't so bad, but the pace of storytelling is too slow which makes people bored. Certain moments are so obvious and unnecessary for the main plot. I would've fast-forwarded those moments if it was an online streaming. The ending looks like implying a sequel, not sure if this movie will get one
... View MoreFirst of all, they must have racially-targeted black actors (according to skin-color) in order to find the one black man on the planet who can swim in salt-water with his eyes open. Second of all, the dude he was swimming to rescue- was simply chillin' in a helicopter seat underwater... just because he can't get his seatbelt off by himself. He calmly takes a breath from his little oxygen tank and points to the seatbelt when the black guy (who somehow found him at night, in salt-water, with no flashlight or mask, after somehow finding the sinking helicopter in 300 billion gallons of water and locating the door-latch) comes to rescue him. Have you ever tried to open your eyes underwater and see anything in focus more than 2 feet away?!?.. much less in SALTwater?!?! And then the radio says "all searches have been called off until the storm passes", when the wife waiting at the station asks "durrrhhhh what does THAT mean?!?"... Then, in all-out-hatred against black women, the media AGAIN puts the black-lover-man into the latina woman... RACISTS!!!
... View MoreI'd like to say some really good things about this show. I really would. I really, really would.Okay, the photography is clear and the audio is clear. There are no wardrobe malfunctions. The decals have a good design.If Garnier used their advertising agency to do a television series, this might be it--real life broken down into superficial clips concentrating on style and beauty without substance.I can't imagine why the 40+ (are there more than that?) executive producers put their money into this. Did they need a tax write-off? The cast is athletic. They speak words. On occasion, they make you care. Okay, okay, I'm making up the last one. The cast is athletic. They speak words. Oh, right, I did those already.The crew does a wonderful job but the writers and actors have a long way to go.
... View MoreI watched the show specifically for Dolph and Texas Battle, I'm a fan of both. J.R. Martinez is pretty good in this, despite the weak material given to him and his fellow actors. The latino lady comes off as stereotypical spicy, but I can work with this. Most of the cast looks like they're reading directly from their script in hand, but I hope that's because they are first time actors, maybe? Texas has a great sense of humor in this and it shows, and Dolph and JR. have a slow burner storyline, but the rest of the girls and the other two guys aren't too memorable, they need some characterization and to show us their background and story, but this show is still more diverse than most shows on TV. Hopefully the acting will improve but I've been watching every episode, something won't let me stop.
... View MoreWithout the hype, of many similar shows, it holds promise. I think it is continually getting better. The plot is developing at a good pace.Love JR Martinez! I was an EMT in Alaska and ER Tech in California, while there are some discrepancies, (aren't there always with TV scripts?) it is better than most. The interaction between the team members is good and they are building true relationships working together as in real life.If you are tired of all the trite poorly written sensational junk out there, give it a try.My only real complaint is the theme song. It is pretty bad. Give us some bagpipes and Amazing Grace or something.
