this movie is awful

Rating: Null/10 (1 June 2001)

Like many others I read here, I feel better knowing that I wasn't the only one who violently hates this stupid film. I saw it in the theater when it came out and it was one of the most unpleasant experiences I ever had. I actually walked out angry and scowling. Why? I don't have time to list all 287 of the technical and scientific flaws in the plot. Theres also the bad script. The totally cliched plot points (there's a bomb with a Red Digital Readout Timer that needs to be defused!)The guys on Bruce Willis space team that are supposed to be "wacky" and "funny" but instead make me wish that bomb went off an hour early. The scene with the animal crackers was lame and vomit-inducing. Liv Tyler doesn't seem to care or even remember that her dad was blown to a zillion pieces only minutes ago during the end of the movie. The film, especially during the space scenes, looks like someone dropped it in a tub of blue paint. And that staple of Jerry Bruckheimer films, explosions galore. Everything in this movie explodes....EVERYTHING.
The ONLY scene that I thought was at least mildly amusing in this whole two and a half hour mess was the part where Bruce Willis shot golf balls at Green Peace. Please, spare yourself from the pain and don't see this movie. While I respect others opinions, I have to wonder about the IQs of the people who really think this movie was fun to watch. It's not... it's stupid, insulting and shallow.
