Brainless and fun

Rating: 6/10 (15 October 2000)

The idea is actually fairly original, I must say, but the imagination it takes to make a brainless but highly entertaining big buck movie out of it - well...I think anyone could have done the job correctly. This film is as fun as it is stupid, and does have some great moments: "Why couldn't you put the bunny down?"
With this dumb a script, directors always go for broke on great actors and wham-bang action. It's a well-known Hollywood recipe. They rarely work, but the past decade has seen a few fairly entertaining flicks that have no brains whatsoever. "Armageddon" is one, "Con Air" is definitely another.
Do not watch of you don't like pointless violence and things blowing up. If you do, you might wanna watch this.
