Million Dollar Disappointment

Rating: Null/10 (17 January 2005)

Clint is overrated as an actor, and as a director, and compose (ad nauseaum). What starts off as modestly interesting film veers way-off-course into 'Whose Life Is It Anyway?" territory. Hilary is appealing, but another Oscar? NO. Morgan's character (the narrator) is blind out of one eye in some scenes and sees clearly out of both eyes in others. The character of Danger ranks up there w/ Jar Jar Bling (from Phantom Menace) for 'most annoying.' As a stunt-person, my attraction to the film were the boxing scenes, and they're well choreographed, but the meteoric rise Hilary's character achieves is not very plausible. Too bad Clint choose to make her family members into evil, cartoon caricatures. Overall: B-.
