Wow, I'm sure embarrassed. That's some keen wit you're flashing about there, reap. Watch out, might hurt somebody.Hey, if I'm on stage does that mean I don't get any popcorn?"A run of bad luck"? Yeah, okay, it makes enough sense.I saw the film once, it largely bored me and so I admittedly paid very little attention to it. I don't pretend to be an expert on the film, nor do I claim to be able to critique it in any detail. It didn't engender in me a strong enough reaction that I could do so. My biggest problems with it were the wooden acting of the two leads (and their complete lack of chemistry), the hammy direction, the lame dialog, the silly contrivances of the plot, the bad fight scenes and the number of times I was expected to just turn off my brain and not think. I'll do that happily for a film that delivers other joys, but I got nothing out of this picture.I'm glad people liked it, though. I guess.</blockquote>
