Reshoots Reshoots Reshoots....!


They have been filming this all April in and around my neighorhood and Hollywood Boulevard, picking up a shot here, a shot there, and it seems reshooting whole chase sections over and over. Either Ron Shelton is a perfectionist, or he's really screwing up. Harrison Ford is fast becoming a bona-fide neighbor, hanging about in liquor shops and subways, all bloodied up(not such an unusual sight here)! In any case, the LAST reshoot is April 28th. - approx. two weeks before it hits theatres. I'm used to close film schedules, but those prints are going to be WET from the lab!!!

You guessed that either Ron Shelton is either a perfectionist or is really screwing up. I saw a preview screening a month ago, and lemme tell you, he's screwing up bigtime. This may be one of the worst constructed plots ever created. I mean, if you don't mind huge gaping plot holes, feel free to see 'Homicide' but if you prefer coherant stories, avoid this movie at all costs. It's got some fun chase scenes, but there is no story in this 2-hour mess of a movie.

I'd read a book.

If I want to be entertained without having to think, I'll watch Hollywood Homocide. Which is exactly what I'll be doing.

I'd say that's a stretch. Did you see X-Men?

Some do, some don't. Some will, some won't. I might.

A stretch? Nooo way. Trust me, this one starts with a shaky story, then halfway through, it just gives up and shows Ford and Hartnett running around like fools. Quite sad really.
