Very entertaining and great action, but otherwise comical.

Rating: 6/10 (25 March 2007)

Took my 15 year old nephew last night and we both enjoyed the action more than anything we have seen in months (he even liked it more than 300). The book wasn't great to begin with, but the movie loses "A LOT" of the aspects that could have made it an excellent movie. It is good, but "DO NOT" go to this movie expecting a "smart" movie and great acting like most of these reviews are saying. Markie Mark's performance is pretty much the same thing as always, Beatty and Glover just do a walk through, which should be expected in this type of movie and who cares if Kate Mara can act 'cause she is cuteness defined. There are so many things that happen "only in the movies" that you will lose count if you are trying. Just wait till the court-whatever scene and you will probably be a little embarrassed for the director, that is, if you can get your eyes rolled back to their proper viewing position. Good fun though and I suggest seeing it on the big screen too!
