That kid is my favorite part! He allows for more of Black's delightful brand of action-movie-trope deconstruction.

I'm glad you've come to the right side.
It has cameos by Happy Endings cast members, Ben Kingsley as a soccer hooligan, James Badge Dale as a delightfully smarmy henchman, and many scenes where Robert Downey Jr. is a dick to a small child. No other MCU film has any of that.
I really wasn't expecting to be mostly fine with the Woody Allen comments and have to grit my teeth reading through these.
Okay, but only because you asked so nicely.
That's Kaitlin Olson's big starring vehicle? Goddamnit, Fox!
Yeah, I want to know if it has inane a conclusion as Sea of Trees (which, literally a year later, still hasn't been released over here).
Hey, at least you chose a good one to watch. But definitely get thee to Do the Right Thing sooner rather than later.
I loved it, but I can definitely see it turning other people off (the thread under this site's review of it is pretty much nothing but bile). Personally, I'd recommend it just on the basis of John Cusack's big scene, which I think has to be seen.
Bullets Over Broadway: Perhaps the most consistently funny of all of Allen's post-early, funnier movies, one which works terrifically as both broad farce and a more sophisticated look at the personal lives of artists and whether or not they actually mean anything, going nicely with Sweet and Lowdown's more curdled…
Wow, the bile in this thread is surprising, because I absolutely loved this movie.
See, I find that genuinely a little disappointing. I love Kaminski's house style as much as I love Robert Richardson's insistence on making it look like he's shining a spotlight on the top of the actors' heads.
Mike, I have just one question; how many windows does Janusz Kaminski shine perfect beams of light through in The BFG? That's how I decide which Spielberg movies I see these days.
I will see the everloving shit out of this.
In the words of David Mamet, Sony could fuck up a baked potato.
Not to mention giving Sally Hawkins a character who maybe says five words and then just looks at things in awe. And making "David Strathairn as gruff military head" not awesome.
He was so bland in Godzilla that at a certain point I began rooting for his immediate and violent death.
Yeah, I had less of a connection to it than I did to the other recent media-deemed "Woody Allen is BACK, baby!!!" movies. Then again, most of those films grew on a rewatch for me (even something as surface-level as Midnight in Paris), so maybe it'll catch up on a second viewing.
