Matt, he does not. I was even more disappointed in this movie than I expected to be.

My friend's 6 word review: [link]
I'll be the voice of dissent. I quite enjoyed it! It is exceedingly silly and a bit too long, but I laughed a lot and loved many of the songs. (I've had "Jaja Ding Dong" of all songs stuck in my head for DAYS, like, I kept humming under my breath "... my love for you grows long and wide" part at all sorts of inconvenient times, like during a staff meeting, etc.)
Rachel McAdams is adorable, and Dan Stevens nearly runs away with the film. Ferrell obviously has a lot of affection for the contest - all the fun-poking is very good-natured. Plus, gorgeous Icelandic scenery! I found the whole thing quite soothing.
Super,super late to the party. I watched The Witcher. then I read some stuff about it. saw the Comicon panel. then watched it again. costuming and makeup issues aside, it works better on a second watch, where you know where certain thigs are coming and there is so much throw-away dialogue that really isn't throw away. I couldn't decide if I liked Henry Cavill or not, but he lobbied hard for the role, had played the game a lot and I think his commitment shows.
I sure liked him better as this than as Superman, I can tell you that. (But I can say the same thing about Brandon Routh.)
Aw, I really liked him as Superman in Man of Steel and Justice League. (Not so much the glowery silent version in Batman v. Superman, but that was hardly his fault.) But Napoleon Solo is his best role so far, imho.
I have seen two episodes of The Floor Is Lava and I am equally horrified and impressed that this show exists AND that I really like watching it. I mean, it's awful, obviously, but it's awful in kind of a perfect way? And watching it requires ZERO mental effort which is exactly how much I have these days.
It's great. I love those silly game shows.
Much better than Ultimate Tag.
