I like the storyline of this show,it attract me so much
Fantastic!
The tone of this movie is interesting -- the stakes are both dramatic and high, but it's balanced with a lot of fun, tongue and cheek dialogue.

I mean, I was expecting waaaaay more jokes. And there are quite enough, but still it wasn't the focus. Of the ones that are there, the majority are well acted and funny. No lazy BS ad lib. Actual jokes.But the movie is actually a well writen, focused story, with "emotions" (not reeeeeally, but at least motivations for all the characters) and a lot of CGI blood (plus some "real" blood too here and there).It's good, its smart. But I could've used a bit more of funny and a little less of narrative sense. For my taste. The performances are optimal.
I really enjoyed this movie. It starts a little slow, but once the leading schlub discovers he's a superweapon, well, things get pretty entertaining, with lots of intense, crazy action involving guns, spoons, and frying pans.This is very much a movie that doesn't want to give you time to stop and think about the story. If you do stop you'll definitely see some issues; for example, the reason given to shut down the original program should still be a problem, but it's just ... not. That's so lazy.But as mindless fun goes, this is a really good example of it. It's also amusing with a surprisingly sweet romance at the heart of it. Torn between giving this a 7 or 8, but because of the less-than-sensible parts I'll go with 7.
Watched this film on Film 4 in the UK (actually still watching it - there's an ad break) and it's hugely entertaining. The thing is, I'd never heard of it, so had no preconceptions. Jesse whossisname killing two CIA operatives with a spoon and a Pot Noodle hooked me. This film is all good!
Very good action thrill ride, with a somewhat unique protagonist. Don't know why critics didn't like it, but I give it an 8. Its not like the plot line is unique, granted. But what were they looking for, Bullit? Citizen Kane? The flick came short of a million on covering its costs with box office, so sadly there probably wont be a sequel. Good acting performances from Eisenberg and Stewart. Its worth the watch, I don't care what anybody else says.
