A very nice surprise - Smith, Theron, Bateman & Berg = the perfect mix !

Rating: 7/10 (3 July 2008)

Just saw the premiere of this movie on July 1st and I can say that I was not too impressed at first. I saw the trailer and I was, it has some funny taglines but it looks too much like your typical Hollywood-spotfest so I didn't know what to think at first. The surprise was absolutely very welcomed !
Will Smith make the movie a real treat, he add the dose of charisma and energy we need in such a big blockbuster ! Charlie Theron & Jason Bateman as supporting actors ! It was a nice addition to see Theron in a role like this, just imagine Aeon Flux but more intense and funny at the same time, she seems to be perfectly fine for the role, as compared as what people said. At first, she seems to have signed for a very ordinary role, and it's not at the end ! She's even more important than the lead actor in this movie. And Jason Bateman, he is the man with the smile, he make us laugh and he want to help the entire world, and he may have find what it takes to help him, an anti-hero that can become big if he listen to someone like him !
All in all, a very entertaining film, don't listen to the bad critics, because you will miss an opportunity to see a great film !
