cons....constant..constanti...constipated scenes

Rating: 1/10 (20 February 2005)

I just came back from watching this film and felt like the fat comic guy on the simpsons going straight to the internet and posting how it is.. "Worst comic book movie ever!" it rates up there with spawn. Anywone remember that movie? yeah, what an embarrassment that was! same goes here.
Reeves seemed like he was being forced to make this film and really didn't wanna be in it. Like his mom was on the set telling him " you better do it or else young man!". His performance was less than the Matrix and it seemed incredibly long. I found myself wondering what time it was during the film. I like Reeves, just not in this movie. His performance was a 1 out of 10.
Gavin Rossdale (singer of Bush, married to G. Stefani) seemed like he was really into it and gave it a lot!! I found that Rossdale with Weisz's GREAT performance helped aid this film but not even they could save the film from becoming a blazing inferno of syrupy boredom. I think someone, at some point, told the writer that he could write and HE BELIEVED IT!! That someone should have been honest with him. " You suck dude, try harder..."
The movie itself seemed too hmm how can I describe this in one word..piece-y if that counts as a word. It seemed the director kept tripping over a wire while trying to balance champagne glasses and forgot this little thing called (suspension of disbelief). which is where the audience tends fall into the movie and stick with it all the way through. The second you get snapped out of this "suspension of disbelief" you find yourself at a theater with a bunch of people you don't know. It's hard to get back in and, sad to say, your efforts to do this in this film pretty much go through out the entire film. I think I remember people leaving.
Could have been better, waste of film like spawn and any Olsen twin movie and the Angel Gabriel looks like a cross-dresser... it almost reminded me of a religious " Men in Black " with chucke-cheese special effects in some parts.
