don't take it so seriously

Rating: Null/10 (10 September 2003)

I read a few comments on this movie and i think that some of you are taking it far too seriously. This film is pile of american patrotism, some very cool special effects, some very famous faces and some incredibly bad dialouge. However I think that is all it was ever supposed to be, none of the cast take it seriously in the film and seem to be having a good laugh rather than acting in most scenes. Why else would the gifted likes of Bushemi, Thornton and Tyler ever appear in a film of this type? This film has the 'die hard' thing going on, great film to look at, you will gasp, laugh, root for the good guys, cheer when the bad guys (or asteroid) get got, the only thing you won't do is think but that is okay sometimes. Imagine a world where the only movies ever made had the emotional depth of 'the shawshank redemption' or the twist ending of 'the usual suspects' we would all go mad, desperatly searching the earth for a piece of entertainment was mindless and just fun, that's all this movie is...fun.
