Sometimes its damning enough to simply state that a new movie is a 'distinctly average' example of its genre, especially when that particular genre is so overflowing with other better movies or other distinctly average movies. BadCompany, directed by Joel Schumacher, produced by Jerry Bruckheimer and starring Chris Rock and Anthony Hopkins, fits into the brainless summer action movie genre and is, at best, a distinctly average example of it. Jerry Bruckheimer will never have the word 'intelligent' applied to any movie he gets involved with, but it has to be said this is one of the dumbest, most lamely scripted, hole-ridden, lack-lustre movies he has ever produced...and THAT is saying something when you consider his previous works have included the abysmal Pearl Harbor, Armageddon and numerous other no-brainers of enormous budget ...
Advantages: Anthony Hopkins is in it Disadvantages: Chris Rock is in it
Irritating Avenue. Chris Rock is not my favourite entertainer in the world, but in BadCompany he is pretty excruciating and compared to the reservation of Anthony Hopkins, you quickly realise that never was a film title more apt. Rock screams, shouts and basically f*cks about at every given opportunity and rather than being endearing, he is unbelievably irritating.

Sadly, in BadCompany, there is hardly any, and most of the film seems to revolve around Jake (the stereotypical loser) and his girlfriend (the stereotypical loser’s girl.) I can recollect about three or four action sequences, but these were as ...
It took me the best part of fifteen years to understand what the hell was happening in John Verhoeven's futuristic, mind-tampering action flick Total Recall. Based on a short story by Philip K. Dick, the film presents the concept of artificial memory implants that [apparently] will wipe out any previous identity. A person then has the option of living his/her life with a chosen fantasy, as if it were a reality.
Of course, the execution of this idea doesn't run as smoothly as the company in the film- "Rekall Inc." -would want. Douglas Quaid (Schwarzenegger) is an everyman: a construction worker, with the trademark blonde wifey (Sharon Stone). Strangely, he has frequent dreams about Mars (in 2084, the planet hosts an airtight city, which is inhibited by humans). So, one day he decides to visit Rekall, in a bid to make his dreams come true ...
