Kaylee ,'Serenity'
A place to talk about movies--old and new, good and bad, high art and high cheese. It's the place to place your kittens on the award winners, gossip about upcoming fims and discuss DVD releases and extras. Spoiler policy: White font all plot-related discussion until a movie's been in wide release two weeks, and keep the major HSQ in white font until two weeks after the video/DVD release.
One of our guys worked on Mr & Mrs Smith and I need to know if it was on the main fight scene, because that was nice and kravvy.
I laughed a lot -- I've never found Brad Pitt this hysterical. Jolie bugs me a little, not least of all because she's just way too thin for the picture her role demands in my head.
But it was fun, and so cheerily violent. Adam Brody -- well, maybe he can play Seth Cohen all his life. I mean, if people will pay him, what's the problem?
My impressions of Mr and Mrs Smith?
Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie -- so pretty and so tall!
Also, many things go boom . .. and really just because a movie is PG-13 doesn't mean that you should bring your child to it. I'm thinking that the movie would have been better if it had been an R because conceptually it's not a kid/family film and with an R they could balance the violence with more sex, you know?
And, what ita said about Adam Brody. (Loved that he was wearing a Fight Club t-shirt while being held hostage. )
The shirt did have me cracking up, Sumi.
Hey -- does anyone have the exact "she's like Batman with computers" quote? Was that it?
That's what I heard, ita. And I, too, cracked up at the shirt.
I pretty much agree with everyone else's assessment. It's fun and funny and things blow up. Good time.
Don't forget the pretty pretty people.
Oh, who played Atlanta (I thought I'd pegged the actor, but have now forgotten -- Angela Bassett maybe?) and who played the therapist? For that I was sure it was William Fichtner.
But neither role is credited in IMDB, unless I'm missing something.
Did we ever see the therapist ? I hoped that the credits would reveal who it was but either I missed it or he isn't there.
No, no face. I was mildly irritated that they bothered to show Father's reflection in the monitor watching Benjamin, because I matched that to his voice, and was ... well, it wasn't a huge deal, I guess, the plot. Given I can't even remember how it ended.
Apparently they killed a bunch of people and that meant they were safe forever. Or something.
Well, holy crap. It made $51 million. Second was $17 million, Madagascar.
