Ladykillers

As long as we recognize Lucas is washed up and most TV sucks, we'll all get along fine.

Tom Hanks, one of the Wayans bros, that nazi guy from Oz, and some other people. I didn't care for it. Tom talked funny, and it annoyed me. The story could have been told without Tom talking all 17th century and shit. Or, maybe not. I dunno. But it annoyed me. Ending was predictable and I was ready for the movie to end. But, I'd spent all that time watching it, so I stuck with it and yup, it ended just like I thought it would. Blah. It won't kill you to watch it, but, don't try to either.

We borrowed the DVD from my sister-in-law a couple weeks ago. I don't particularly want to watch it.
Tom Hanks looked unwatchable from the commercials. His greasy Col. Sanders character looks too overdone.

Thank you. You have solidified my plans to return the DVD unwatched.

The wife finally decided to play the DVD.
I saw the first part, got bored, and left.

I'd pop my head in every once in awhile, but nothing caught my interest.

I came back in time to watch everybody die.
There, I spoiled the ending. So if you're reading this you have no reason to watch the movie.

If you spoiled the ending for me, there will be consequences. Unless the movie does suck.

Movies are a hobby of mine. I'll check eventually when I have nothing else to watch.

I've got to go with Malcolm on that one. I saw both films and while the concept for the monster was interesting in the first film, it was horribly done. Don't even get me started on the ridiculousness that was the sequel.

I haven't seen them. But, they were trailers for one of the movies I've seen recently. May have even been Bubba Ho-Tep.

I saw Jeepers Creepers on TV awhile back. I checked out the Jeepers Creepers 2 spoiler somewhere, and really liked the ending. I'll probably watch it I ever get a chance to... for free... and nothing better is on.

Not to spoil anything, but Jeepers Creepers 2 really didn't have an ending.

I'm sure everyone reading this can figure out what that means, but its not really a spoiler. Trust me.

Not one of Tom Hanks best performances. But some of the other comedy had me laughing. It is very much an unrealistic plot. Just sit back and enjoy if someone else rents it. It's liveable. 5 out of 10.

Merged.

If I can keep from losing the entire forum database any more, we'll have quite the comprehensive list of movie reviews in... say... 12 or 14 years.

I finally saw this flick and I see Cake and Unk's views. I'd go 4 out of 10.

It wasn't great, but there's nothing sooo bad that you'll stab your eyes out.
