It's a Fantasy Ride People

Rating: 6/10 (4 January 2011)

OK, if you watch this movie as a family film meant to entertain children and be more in the genre of light-hearted fantasy instead of action then this film is actually reasonably fun. The problem is that the film was supposed to be a great action film played by a strong cast of actors. The movie had far more potential than it realized. That's why most people hated the movie. It far underperformed it's potential.
That said, watch this movie as a fantasy film. Suspend belief for a while and sit back and enjoy it. Yes, the scenes are unbelievable. Yes, the graphics are cheesy by modern standards. Yes, the script is overly gratuitous, self-serving and convenient. But, the movie is still fun. Good silly fun. 6/10 stars, mainly due to moments of good acting. Woody Harrelson alone makes for a good chuckle or two.
