So I went to see this movie with... let us say median height hopes? Bruce Willis is a pretty cool guy (remember when Die Hard threw that guy out a window? INORITE?!) and Kevin Smith has had some occassional moments of brilliance in his career, so I figured what the hell.
What I wanted to be a movie centered on rapid fire pithy dialogue boxed in with a few over the top homage action sequences turned out to be an unintentional parody of an all ready self-parodying genre.
And what the fuck Tracy Morgan? He wasn't funny, he didn't do anything except act like a jackass and get all stupid for no apparent reason. He spent half the movie whining like a little kid and I SHIT YOU NOT drooling like an infant for comedic effect.
Everyone that wasn't Bruce Willis was pretty much a racist charicature and the few genuinely funny moments in the movie were overshadowed by the tremendous amount of suck emanating from the "funny guy" in the movie. This might as well have been directed by Carlos Mencia.
(Although, it did have Jason Lee who is pretty much concentrated awesome, and that annoying fuck from American Pie got killed so... ok it wasn't a complete waste.)
I need to go watch the Beverly Hills Cop trilogy to get this pile out of my head.
