I'm going in with an open mind on Sunday. 50-30% on RT is debatable stuff at best. And again, this forum crucified a yet-to-be-released Minecraft movie just because it's not a cartoon.

Plus, critics hated The Greatest Showman yet everyone else liked it. There's such a thing as disconnect.

Oh, yeah, that's the only thing wrong with that trailer.

Back from seeing the movie early in Dolby! It’s honestly a lot of fun. The trailers don’t do this justice. Very Men in Black-ish in tone and pretty well-paced with Johnson and Evans playing off each other well. Please give this a chance.

And yes, the CG is way better in the actual movie than the trailers.

8/10

LOL I bet you totally had this review written before you even watched it.

Of course you'd be the first to chime. Actually, I didn't. You'd be surprise how many times I go in wanting to enjoy something and it turns out crap. Happened last year with Expendables 4 and this year with Borderlands.

And no, the CG honestly does look better in the final movie and there's even quite a bit of practical effects. Either way, y'all really seem to have forgotten what "fun" is. It's a solid 8, no higher no lower. Wasn't going in looking for a masterpiece. Treated my mother to her ticket for this and she enjoyed it (she's a Chris Evans fan).

 

[psylockolussus]

Not surprising. It looks meh from the trailers, and is giving me subpar Netflix action feature film.

I don't know, they were pretty spot on about Joker 2. The more telling thing is the audience score, or "popcornmeter". Joker 2 dropped like a rock at the box office yet Venom 3 has stayed at the top for the last three weeks.

$250 million budget...why ?

The various salaries for the stars, I'm guessing.

You know, I’ve worked all kinds of jobs in my life and never once did I feel the need to pee in a bottle, especially when there were bathroom facilities readily available. But what do I know?

I'm sure there's plenty of actors with plenty of quirks in Hollywood.

Is this going to affect people seeing his movies? Will it cause some pause in productions signing him on for future projects?

Sounds like it's just him being a pain in the ass. Lots of eyerolls around the set I'm sure, but, in the grand scheme of things, I don't think this is anything out of the ordinary for Hollywood.

I’m sure there are plenty of actors with weird quirks. But this one just happens to be ****ing gross.

Of course it is and I'm sure this pales in comparison to what some assistants put up with across the entertainment landscape.

Maybe this will be an eye-opener for him to stop doing this.

Nah, its clear he is only going up his own ******* more and more.

The roids probably ain't helping either.

Truck drivers will pee in bottles and jugs and leave them at rest area trash can sites, but that is because they drive miles and miles and can't always stop at a gas station to take a piss break. I don't know if that applies to movie sets like the ones Rock would be filming on though.

 

[DarkKnight88]

If you’re up in a harness or doing some complicated shot, I’m sure it does save time probably. I don’t know what the case is here.

I think some of the Batman actors said they just peed in the suit cause taking it off would delay production as they needed a team of people to get them out of it then back in it.

Both Christian Bale and Michelle Pfeiffer have apparently told Ben Affleck and Zoe Kravitz respectively to consider how you'd go to the bathroom in costumes.

It may have been something he started doing during his wrestling days to save time driving cross country. But, he certainly doesn't need to keep doing it lol

Nolan has been filming his movies in IMAX since 2008 and The Rock just NOW noticed it?

 

[Boom]

He's kinda insufferable.
