Yawn. Poorly Filmed Snooze Fest.

Maidgethma

Wonderfully offbeat film!

Teddie Blake

The movie turns out to be a little better than the average. Starting from a romantic formula often seen in the cinema, it ends in the most predictable (and somewhat bland) way.

This is a dark and sometimes deeply uncomfortable drama

If an infinite (minus one) number of monkeys with an infinite (minus one) number of typewriters were given an infinite (minus one minute) timetable, and if the monkeys had been inbred specifically to produce decidedly sub-par intelligence, they would come up with this masturbatory, pretentious, pseudo-intellectual abomination.If a technologically advanced, pacifistic race of aliens' first exposure to the human race was this film, they would immediately drop their peaceful trappings and send a punitive expedition to exterminate us all to a man.John Carter appears to be (one of many) of the belief that the general public views as brilliant that which is incomprehensible.The core—the rotten, stinking core—of this movie's problem is just plain bad writing. Every other formal element, from cinematography to acting, no matter how brilliant, cannot but fail on account of this foundation.I mean... I'm angry. Livid. Not only for the hour and a half wasted in watching this partial (yet, strangely, not partial enough) abortion, but for the black blot it has placed upon human culture at large. This movie makes me feel ashamed to even be the same species as the writer.Just. Plain. Bad. Writing. Bad.

Cuba Gooding Jr. and J.K Simmons star in this movie. And frankly, that is about as far as you can get me to say anything more than a wild guess pertaining to what goes on in this movie's plot. The story it's self is a confusing fare, involving Cuba's cardboard cut-out character shooting at Arabs in a random abandoned building, finding a guy who is heavily implied to be Osama bin-Laden sick in bed, his wife getting killed and watching a boxing match. This is not helped at all by the fact that the movie is told in flashbacks, so that the ending of the movie is actually the middle of the plot. I think? Who knows, and who cares. I watched until the end purely to see if maybe some form of explanation or resolution would be offered, and none was to be had.Adding to the confusion for DVD viewers--at least for me--was the fact the often muttered speech is not helped at all by the subtitles, which were often displaying text that was several scenes ahead of what was going on, mostly confusing but sometimes unintentionally funny.Cuba, I seriously hope that you took this on for a boat payment, and that this is not a sign of your future career. Fingers crossed!

I rented this because it had Cuba Gooding Jr. in it and seemed like a decent action film. Bad idea. When it was over we turned to each other and said, "What the heck was THAT?" It has some great actors - all wasted. Some scenes take forever. It took about a minute just to watch a guy make three or four faces and get out of a limousine. Seriously, it was like the director was reaching for some of the great suspenseful movie scenes of the 1950s, but failed miserably. I STILL don't know what the plot was. Heck I came to IMDb to see if anyone else had figured it out.There are so many plot devices they just left hanging that I am convinced this was perhaps shot as three different movies, and then they just put it together during a drunken high editing session. Very disappointing.

Please don't let anyone convince you to waste the electricity to play this movie. This movie defines horrible in all manners. Many reviewers would have voted -10 and I agree that's what this movie deserves. It has a quality on par with the other most ridiculous 9-11 conspiracy videos you might find on youtube, but at least nobody was tricked into watching them because they didn't have Cuba Gooding Jr. on the credits. I couldn't help but to think someone was chuckling as they knew the punchline to the inside joke which was on me and all the other viewers. Please don't waste your time with this one. The acting was surprisingly terrible - it was as if we took quality actors and asked them to really see how badly they could perform. The plot isn't smart just because it takes you to the end of the movie to shock you into realizing it was never going to make any sense. Talk about getting strung along... I think Cuba should apologize to his fans.
