What was he thinking? (Possible spoilers!)

Rating: 2/10 (28 January 2001)

The nicest thing I can say about this film was the plot was not that bad. However it could, quite easily, have fitted in to a 50 minute time slot for a 'Superman' type show. There was far too much time spent on slow-motion 'art' type shots, and far too many 'strange' shots (between train seats, through railings, on the orange juice are just some examples) that did nothing to ad to the film - they only served to p**s me off and put me to sleep. Willis and Jackson did admirable jobs in trying to make it flow faster, but they were on a doomed mission from the start because of the direction and photography. If it could have ended at the train-station where Willis is on the top of the steps then it might have been an almost decent film, but to drag it out for another half hour or so was pointless. (I also found it somewhat disturbing that someone was being choked to death to 'glorious' music - there did not appear to be anything wonderful about that!).
Over all - if it was a debut film by an inexperienced director - it would have been a good attempt. But for a fourth film? I would say if you have two hours with nothing better to do (such as watching paint dry) it might be worthwhile seeing. Otherwise I suggest reading a comic :}
