Poor writing - cut and paste

Rating: Null/10 (23 July 2004)

Spoilers. I am a big fan of Will Smith. So I am saddened with this
movie. Why don't these screen writers try writing something
original these days? Why spend millions on CG when they use the
same tired old formulaic plot twists? 1- The chief tries to keep cop from doing his job. 2- The chief takes cops badge. 3- The chief finds out too late cop knew what was going on.
There was absolutely no spark between any of the characters,
especially between spooner and calvin. The scene where he
describes the little girl in the car, Calvin looks like somebody
stepped on her toe to get some feeling out of her. Did anybody
really care if any of the characters got hurt? I mean did anybody
have any feelings other than when you play a video game? The
jokes were lame, the 4 spoons of suger in coffee didn't do
anything for me, I don't know why Spooners stuck in the past with
his retro converses, the relationship between him and grandma
looked fake, I never felt any emotion towards the actors. They
seemed to be in a hurry to get the thing behind them and pick up
their paycheck.
The dorky scenes in the tunnel, the tunnel is packed solid with
cars until the scene where the robots jump on his car. The robots
moved just like the CAD animations I played on my workstation 10
years ago. It all looked cartoony especially the long shots.
The movie just didn't flow. Its entertainment but it still should be
great entertainment. Sad.
