Advantages: Suspenseful, compelling Disadvantages: Some bad performances
rather horrible over-acting. I really cringed each time he came on screen; there was much leering and sucking on a stupid pipe like Sherlock Holmes - he really made a mockery of the whole film.
In a lot of ways, this is a great thriller, which is based on a book by Ira Levin (who also wrote Rosemary's Baby and The Stepford Wives). I first watched it about four months ago when it was shown on TV and enjoyed it so much, I bought the DVD. However, there is a real need to suspend disbelief at times. It is just so unlikely that Dory, who is a rich, beautiful young woman, would be able to have a lover that no-one ever saw. As it is, plenty of people saw them together, but the information somehow manages to remain undiscovered until the last minute. However, plenty of films have unrealistic threads in them and, in this case, I think that ...
Advantages: Brucieeee! :-D Disadvantages: Some acting isnt wonderful...
Love this film :-p
And not only because its got a VERY sexy Bruce Willis running around!!!! The film has been on TV alot recently, possibly promoting the new Die Hard 4.0 film, and I was (forced!!) to watch it with my husband, I didn't want to...its not my kind of film, but when we watched it, I found it amazing!!!
Yes some of the acting of the foreign men (Karl), isn't wonderful, but other than that, the film is amazing! The story line is gripping, the characters are played wonderfully by the actors, and theres the right amount of comic factors in there to make it light hearted whilst still been a good action film!
The basic storyline is that of a police agent who goes to see his wife and kids who he lives apart from in new york for christmas, but when he is at the office block she works in, all hell breaks loose and a huge ...

John Tucker Must Die
I rarely watch a film the whole through if I don?t enjoy it so there must have been something about the predictability of this film that I enjoyed, although I am yet to discover which part of this 90 minute disaster kept me until the end.
John Tucker
The film is as you may be able to tell from the incredibly vague (sarcastic) title is an American Teen flick about a young guy called John Tucker who has managed to work his way through a large majority of his school?s girls. Three of them discover that (shock horror) he is a player, and they work along with another girl to bring John Tucker down, at first by humiliating him in front of his peers to jeopardise his popularity, but when this fails they work together to manipulate him into falling in love with the quieter member of their group and they film ...
