I'm with Mark, Hudson Hawk is a much underrated comedy. Dick Tracy? Meh, they could have done so much more... Mario Brothers? A perfect example of why you shouldn't make films of 8-bit computer games. But Hudson Hawk was excellent. I loved the singing to get the timing! There were some classic lines in there and (when you look at the outtakes and director's commentary, listening to Sly Stallone's brother trying to say "spatulas" is hillarious). The jokes are built up, it is all way OTT, it is just a fun film. It doesn't try to be high art or a sophisticated film, just a silly comedy and it accomplishes that with aplomb. It also shows that David Caruso can also act, not just dish out one-liners with a menacing look

I have to say I came at that film with the lowest expectations and was still disappointed - and I didn't see it until years later  _________________Plain English advice on everything money, purchase and service related:

The Predators info just gets worse and worse. Adrian Brody was so miscast in King Kong that I'm surprised anyone would think he could carry an action film, not that any of the rest of the cast inspire confidence. Depressing...

I actually thought he was spot on in King Kong. A pleasant break from having someone like... Mark Wahlberg or Vin Diesel in the role.

Showgirls was shocking. I cant believe they'd consider another. Although seeing Elizabeth Berkleys naughty bits was a treat for Saved By The Bell fans  lol _________________Twitter Blogflickr
