Word of mouth, friend or foe?

Rating: 3/10 (2 July 2008)

Word of mouth told me this was a good film. Word of mouth lied. Will Smith still hasn't topped his gold record riddled music career. This crossover actor just hasn't got the minerals to run with the big boys. I would have enjoyed this film a great deal more if those screenwriters Vince and Vincent hadn't scribbled this yarn with the Fresh Prince in mind. He was good in the Legend of Bagger Vance, but was not fit for colossal leading role. As far as the film goes I could have done without all the h.j. references. Red was cool, who saw that coming? Take a chance't (chance it). These filmmakers did and they will reap the sour doubloons from this summer blockbuster. This may not be a movie for kids, but it's also not a movie for people that watch great motion pictures.
