As bad as it gets


I didnt like this movie at all. It was terrible in most aspects. The dialogue was good, but a lot of the good lines went to Eddie Murphy, and that's not good. Owen Wilson's peformance was god-awful. He showed no heart or passion in his character. But on the other hand, I guess when you dont get good lines, that could deflate any actor. To wrap it up, to me, this movie was boring. I cant put my finger on it, but I just didnt like it.

Then you're just dry, it's not the funniest movie of all but it's funny!
You are just expectin so much from Eddie.

I dont expect too much from Eddie Murphy. I felt as if he did a excellent job with what he was given with. But to me, I felt he got to say all the best lines in the movie. I like Owen Wilson, but they made his character too dry for my taste

I'm a big Owen Wilson fan as well, and I did feel a bit of the same way...but I did like it that he got the last line of the movie and it was good "Get some jelly and 2 parashoots on the plane", and I liked Alex's "Baby when I woke up this morning, a sea was storming inside of me...inside of me. And Baby when I get that feeling I need Sexual healing. And it's good for us...sexual healing." His hand motions and gestures in that scene did crack me up and I liked it that he didn't exactly sing it like Eddie...I liked the way Owen did that part...and the "No! No! No!" "No?" "No you're fine! No! No! Yes to you! No! No, you go back to the way you were! No!" part was kinda funny in response to "Now go bite her on the ass real hard! Not real hard to break the skin, but hard enough to leave a teeth mark."

Guys, you can't be serious. I like both Eddie Murphy and Owen Wilson, and actually haven't seen a really bad movie with them, that's why I saw this one, despite the bad reviews and comments. But this just sucked.
