I've been going through the AFI's list of the top 100 comedies, and I must say that this is truly one of the worst.
0
After the superb AANKHEN(2002) which was a remake of a Gujarati play he comes with WAQT which too looks like a stage playIn stage plays, we have characters shouting, overacting here too the sameThe first half shows Amitabh almost kidding the 40+ Akshay Kumar who acts too funny like a small nerdThe film has a good message how not to spoil your son but sadly the way Amitabh wants to make Akki responsible is absolutely fakeEven his reason for hiding his sickness, his runnign from the hospital and the melodramatic speech by Akki is a put offSome emotions do touch you but most are too over the topRajpal's comedy is hilarious but too stretched in second half Direction by Vipul Shah is too overdone though some scenes are good Music is okayAmongst actors Amitabh overdoes it in the first half but is superb in emotional scenes Akshay Kumar too does his part well but looks umcomfortable in some too weepy scenes His chemistry with Bachchan is matchless Rajpal is a highlight, he makes you laugh without overacting and just his presence and his dumb behaviour and deadpan humour he is a riot Boman is good in some comic parts but too loud at places Priyanka is the heroine so nothing to do, this is her last film with Akki so far Shefali is awesome though she looks too young for Bachchan
0
The acting is cringe worthy in its hamminess – no effort was made to try and act in any convincing manner by any of the main players in this film.
0
All the emotions are way too overdone and thus not at all realistic.
0
Stupid, pointless, with a ridiculously OTT performance by Amitji.
0
This film is an INSulT to our intelligence I really cant believe i contributed financially to the 'people' who made this film by taking my family to see it, we left the cinema with a frown, please do not subject yourself to this mess to watching this take my advice and do not waste your 'waqt'.
0
this is just usual Indian garbage that gets turned out as cinema, as Indians we can proudly boast that we have the biggest cinema industry, however it also the worst.
0
This is some incredibly dumb writing.
0
some pathetic songs that will be heard by who?
0
In sum, the emotions are alien.
0
I found this film to be quite an oddity.
0
You really do have to worry if BBC schedulers have any type of clue as to what they`re doing
0
Unfortunately, that also applies to Charlie; in trying to make him an anti-hero, the script (composed by more than ten writers) only succeeds in rendering the character TOO unlovable.
0
Wow, what a waste of acting talent.
0
At two hours long and laced with "Lifetime Movie-of-the-week" music that is guaranteed to rub you raw, it's a complete failure in both the "meaningful" and "moviemaking" aspects.
0
The part of the story in the present is fairly boring.
0
You weren't entertaining and you weren't even thought-provoking.
0
- 4 stars for cinematography and the ability to convince great actresses to commit to this junk.
0
As you might gather, the main characters aren't much cop, but the minor ones manage, amazingly to be much worse.
0
Ann's daughters are as whiny and thoughtless as she, Luc is a retarded slacker on crack, and I didn't give a rot about any of them!
0
It really was a disappointment.
0
Horrible screenplay as well.
0
The writing & characterizations are so riddled with stereotypes that the film verges on parody.
0
This film is a disaster.
0
Wait for Cable.
0
Almost as tedious to watch as it was to read, Evening is a gorgeously produced failure...
0
A silly action film without much creativity.
0
The characters, aside from Carell, were totally one-note.
0
The main character in the movie is not even a likable person, just pathetic.
0
Not so much because of the material, but the lack thereof.
0
The story is disjointed, fragmented and incoherent.
0
Relying on gratuitous profanity and potty humor is a sure sign of a loser Hollywood movie, the product of unimaginative and no-talent writers.
0
This film is crass and crude entertainment with nothing to recommend it.
0
Director Ray Taylor, an old hand at such entertainments keeps events moving briskly, but repeated scenes and footage, a good deal of which is to be found in the previous year's Skull Island setting from KING KONG, and the port locale from SON OF KONG, reduces original action to less than 60 minutes from the serial's running length of over two and one-half hours and, if viewed at one sitting, becomes lacking in effect to most viewers, unless insomniac.
0
The acting is for the most part, awful.
0
And from the looks of "Stroker Ace", WAY too much.
0
Even the outtakes at the end were tiresome and boring, and worst of all, unfunny.
0
It almost feels like everyone involved in this project didn't even try to make an appealing movie.
0
Save for a few race scenes there is absolutely NOTHING worth seeing here.
0
The characters are so stupid that you actually feel pity for the actors playing them.
0
This should have been listed as a movie starring Peter Falk and not playing the caracter of Colombo because it does not do justice at all to our great lieutenant Colombo.
0
This episode deviates in the extreme, and the result is a major flop.
0
It would had been an extremely bad and ridicules cheap movie I can tell you.
0
This was NO Columbo, just a shallow and totally predictable crime drama with our familiar Lt.
0
A mind-bogglingly tedious, pointless, muddled pile of unwatchable drivel that wastes both the time of the viewing audience and of the acting talents of an exceedingly bored-looking Peter Falk.
0
) Even if you forgive all the glaring errors, this was just plain the poorest excuse for a made-for-TV "Columbo" film ever.
0
It was a complete waste of time.
0
An uninspired and undistinguished "new" Columbo which sees the man-in-the-mac attend his nephew's wedding, only for his bride to disappear on their wedding night.
0
Falk looks bored throughout and so will you be if you waste anytime watching this.
0
It's overkill.
0
other then getting wet all the time.
0
The editing is mind-bogglingly bad.
0
Secondly, it is slow and terribly drawn out.
0
Which explains why there's no money left for decent effects, a decent video camera or proper actors.
0
Not since GETTYSBURG have I seen such a fake piece of facial hair.
0
The only explanation for this surfeit of redundancy other than total artistic ineptitude is a desire to pad out thirty minutes of wretchedly amateurish CG works into something that could be offered as a feature-length film.
0
I honestly believe that ANYONE considering film-making be subjected to this mind-boggling failure.
0
Finally, the acting is overall sub-par.
0
It's painful to watch.
0
The acting is terribly stale and monotone, the CGI looks like a computer geek did it in his mother's basement with minimal software, and.....
0
Well it definitely follows the book pretty closely , and that is the only plus to this mess.
0
But good performances were quickly overshadowed by horrible...
0
I wouldn't imagine it would be possible to turn a brilliant book into this bad a movie.
0
This movie was so bad, I thought I was on drugs.
0
This movie was so bad, I thought I was on drugs.
0
A monkey could make better CGI effects then what was wasted for 3 hours on this dreadful piece of garbage, although I must admit the machines and the martians would have looked really, really cool on an original play-station 1 game, and early PC games from the mid 90s if a game had ever been made.
0
There is absolutely NOTHING to recommend this film.
0
The acting is, well, perhaps about dinner theater comparable, and the accents are atrocious.
0
That film was so pretentiously dull, my friend and I and two total strangers gave up ridiculing it about half-way through, and sat near the screen playing cards, using the movie as light by which to see the cards - its only usefulness, as far as any of us could tell.
0
Absolutely nothing was delivered.
0
It is beyond boring, most of the scenes are filmed in front of a green screen, the acting is somewhat improvised, almost as if they didn't have a script.
0
The Fear: Resurrection" is a disappointing and pointless slash movie that uses the interesting concept of eliminating the greatest innermost fear of each friend before it grows, but in a messy screenplay full of clichés.
0
The Morty design is good and Betsy Palmer (Mrs. Voorhees from the original Friday THE 13TH) is surprisingly delightful as the grandmother, but this thing is even more senseless and confusing than the original and is full of false scares, bad acting, brain-dead characters, repeat flashback footage and annoying distorted camera-work.
0
This film is a real yawner.
0
A silly ending doesn't help either.
0
The dialogue is atrocious, the acting is bad (except for Betsy Palmer--why Betsy?
0
Stale story pitifully acted.
0
I have not seen the first film and if it anything like this have no great desire to.
0
Unfortunately for this show, the only two ingredients of this show are finally vacuity and a total lack of credibility.
0
why these actors they agreed to play this poor scenario.
0
This cartoon, on the other hand, is afflicted with the second warning sign of a dull cartoon: there's too much dialogue.
0
But even then it fails to make a point, primarily, I suspect, because the love affair in the Republic of Two falls completely flat.
0
This was an awful movie!
0
Overall a disappointment.
0
I had difficulty staying awake through this disjointed movie.
0
But after about 20 minutes they get separated, and the film slows to a crawl, and even with the occasional fight scene to liven things up, it lacks excitement.
0
This sadly makes the film not only difficult to watch but also sends the watcher certain feelings of hopelessness, as if he or she is wasting valuable time of their short life.
0
To portray him in such vague terms is just plain silly.
0
Here, the script is too poor to sustain rich comic characterisations, and some of the greatest comedy talent ever assembled - Peter Sellers, Terry-Thomas, Raymond Huntley and John le Mesurier - are criminally wasted.
0
The film winds up with a lamely staged revolution whose surprise resolution will surprise no one, and a final bit of action by Carlton-Browne that would seem to nail the lid on his coffin literally.
0
Bad acting, bad screenplay, bad everything.
0
There is absolutely no storyline, the gags are only for retards and there is absolutely nothing else that would make this movie worth watching.
0
Some of this was on purpose, but much of it was just needlessly confusing, monotonous, and poorly focused.
0
Camera and editing adds to the general impression of lame.
0
This is easily the worst movie I have ever seen.
0
It wasn't his acting though, that was alright, but the script just didn't make any sense.
0
2)The average person will really kick themselves that they did not "watch" one of these UNHOLY fill-in-the-blanks flicks created in their own head for free, instead of shelling out time and money to see this UNHOLY from the video store (or on cable).
0
However, I was simply APPALLED at this disastrous adaptation.
0
This movie was so badly written, directed and acted that it beggars belief.
0
Eartha Kitt was so creepy and after her character did what she did The movie was ruined for me; I could barely stand to watch the rest of the show.
