Negative
What is it with you guys almost everbody seems to be so negative about everything not just this movie but every other movie as well
shareI'm getting the same feeling. It seems that unless Peter Jackson or Joel Silver have a hand in it, no one thinks it'll be good. True, a lot of movies are crap, but let's at least give them the benefit of the doubt at first. Sometimes films can surprise you, and sometimes, well, they make you want to gouge out your eyes. But let's at least try to have a positive attitude here people and not prejudge everything. I want to see this one, the previews look pretty funny.

[claps hands] my thoughts exactly moviegoer. Harrison's last few movie choices have been fantastic. I think he's also been choosing for roles that he's going to enjoy filming, rather than what executives are gonna be excited to see him in. If Harrison enjoyed himself during filming, it's going to show in the finished product and hopefully that will equal in box-office success!

whu.....are you kidding me? yeah, harrison ford has done some great roles. I mean yeah i can't forget star wars, crap like dat. But presently, ford is putting out *beep*. k-19 are you kidding me? he's played the same role for about 20 years. yeah he's been doin it well, but he's not using his talent. he's the hero, the edgy hero everyone pulls for. why can't he play somethin else? maybe a baseball player like dennis quaid. at least gibson had the balls to play a gritty hero in payback. but ford, nope, same, han solo saves the day. granted he's a good actor, dont' get me wrong, but his last couple of movies, can't frickin come close. what lies beneath was a scary movie, didn't break new ground. k-19 was ford being ford. didn't break any new ground, and people saw that, and didn't go to it. hollywood homicide could be good. this time it's a comedy, am i gonna plunge 6.50 for it. nah, prolly not.
shareI agree... to a point. Ford is a great actor, in my opinion. Some of those Tom Clancy roles - wow. But K-19? Not one of his finer moments. What was with that forced, unconvincing, poorly delivered accent? I mean, I think I would have enjoyed the movie 10,000 times more if he had just talked in his normal voice.
And speaking of Tom Clancy, the best ever submarine movie, hands down, would have to be the Hunt for Red October. It would have only been better if Harrison Ford had played Jack Ryan. :-)
I agree Harrison's accent wasn't up to par in K-19, but neither was Liam's. If you can look past that, though, I think they both acted good throughout. Also: you did mention What Lies Beneath, which was a different type of role for Ford, which I think he pulled off with aplomb! My wife and I were completely fooled by that one the first time we saw it.
shareActually, my buddy is dating a russian girl who says that Ford's Georgian accent (when he didn't slip out of it) was spot on, I tend to believe her over a bunch of American critics. In regards to Hollywood Homicide, I think you have to live, or have lived, in LA to really appreciate this film, it was less of a "buddy cop" film than it was a "poke fun at LA" film.

Harrison wasn't the problem in this film. It was that ugly sorry azz actor Hollywood keeps trying to force down our throats...Josh Hartless! He was week! Next to Harrison? they should not have paired these two. It was as bad as sorry azz Ben Afleck with Morgan freeman. These younger actors are soft! Save your money!!!!!!
shareI have to say, when I first set out to see this movie, I thought I would be bored out of my mind. Into the first half hour of the movie, I was glad I payed 8 bucks for it--I'd definately go see it again. I don't know why everyone said it sucked, cause I didn't see any suckyness. It was very funny. I don't know who posted it, but I agree with whoever said that "you have to live in LA or have gone to LA to understand the concept of the movie." now, I've never been to LA, but NY has gotta be something like it, so I'm comparing it to that, lol. Anyways, the movie was good, everyone go see it. If you've seen it and didn't like it, don't complain here, no one wants to hear your crap. =D
