How can something so big be so bad?

Rating: 1/10 (14 December 1998)

What did I like about this movie. Well, it was in color. Much better than black and white. Let's see, the language used was English. Made it easier to understand than, say, Mandarin. Oh, yeah, I almost forgot. I didn't have to pay anything to see it. Financially that is; I did have to clock off a couple hours on the dwindling meter of my life, however. I suppose it is mostly my fault tho, because I am old enough to know that, as a rule, the more a film is hyped, the more it stinks. And, ladies and gents, this rubbish pile stunk all the way out to wherever the little green men live. Hammy? Overacted? SILLY!? Yes to all! What was Fresh Prince bringing his brand of humor *laugh* into a so-called serious action film for? Know what this undeveloped mess reminds me of? The James Bond movies with Roger Moore. I despise a movie with all the little jokes and cool asides thrown in during what is supposed to be a tense moment. Such unrealism leaves me cold, and longing for a small, quiet spell with a good book. As long as the gullible public will fork over their bucks for this pablum, showbiz types will feed it to us. Probably laugh their heads off while doing so, too.
