The reviews have been terrible, but the trailers seemed cool. You guys have been money this summer, providing REAL TALK of the recent summer releases.

Looks like a turd. Apparently drunk ass super power Will Smith is like less than an eighth of the movie. The rest is shitty super hero cliches with shitty CG.

skip it, watch it on TV in a few months.

Saw it. Think about any other Will Smith summer blockbuster in the setting of a superhero. If you're a fan of Will Smiths other movies you'll probably dig it, if you thought Independence Day and I Am Legend and all the other shit he's done was terrible, then you'll hate this one too.

Then I myself will probably like it because I don't think I've ever not liked one of his movies.

I like it in a cheesy, mindless action with cliche jokes way. They're pretty awesome and he's just an entertaining dude. He's the kind of black male other black celebrities should try to emulate. And he has a rockin' bod.

Save your money and go see Gonzo this weekend. It's from the same people who did Taxi to the Dark Side and Enron: The Smartest Guys in the Room!

Ooh, Speed Racer opens up at the $3 bargain theater this weekend!

I'm definitely waiting for dvd for this one. But then again, the last movie I saw in theaters was Iron Man, and before that, Return of the King, so I'm a bit of a movie hermit.

By all accounts, it falls apart in the third act. From people that even like it. And they're in the minority. Go see it if you want to make Will Smith another bajillion dollars.

It is like the kids of Fight Club, The Matrix, and Shoot Em Up all had a big orgy. Shoot Em Up ended up getting pregnant, but no one knew who the father was, so both Fight Club and The Matrix raised it as their own.

i'll probably see TDK even though i didn't even like batman begins.

It's a big, noisy piece of pop trash and I totally understand why it would turn off some. But the "worst movie ever" title is just hyperbole thrown about because of its popularity. In reality, it was just the "worst popular movie ever" to those folks. I mean, did you even see EPIC MOVIE?

Why would you go see Transformers when you KNOW that's the type of film you're not going to enjoy? I don't understand that. Cinema is too expensive to waste tickets for stuff that looks dumb to you personally. I'm not going to go see Forgetting Sarah Marshall, despite rave reviews, because I know I probably won't enjoy it. Same with Indiana Jones.

Spider-Man 3 was a total disappointment. Last year sucked for blockbusters. This has been one of the best years in awhile, though.

Eric P · « **Reply #53 on:** July 02, 2008, 10:51:40 PM »

George lucas was all like "We aren't going to have shit like a F16 flying under a bridge, that's not our thing", i was all like "yeah", then i saw the movie and i was like "Waaaat, wtfisthistarzanshitfuckthismovie".
