Well seems I'm the only person who didn't like this?! I thought it was a Rom-Com but it's more of a Rom-Drama. Quite weird and quirky, I just found it painfully slow, long and a bit boring. The 2nd half isn't too bad but the film didn't need any where near the run time. I would say it's most like The good girl with Jennifer Aniston but I enjoyed that more than this.

So much better than the others.
The film needed a reboot. I know they were popular but I thought the first ones with Angelina Jolie were so bad they were near unwatchable. This is a good fun adventure, like a female Indiana Jones movie. It won't set the world on fire but it's quality entertainment.

It's for Kids
Look, it's not Citizen Kane. But kids movies are usually not great, and kids Christmas movies are especially bad. This was actually enjoyable, especially because of the voice acting.

If you are an adult, I can't recommend watching more than once. But as a parent, I look forward to watching this over the Jim Carey version ever year.

Third time is not the charm. After laying my peepers upon Jeepers Creepers 3 I see why it only got a one night screening in theaters. I know it had a cheap budget, which resulted in a cheap look and tone, over acting from underpaid actors, and some horrible cgi, but no excuse for making a movie this bad. Just not worthy to be associated with the first two movies in my opinion.

I don’t understand why this is a classic
This film isn’t bad per se but I find it bland, boring and lifeless.
It is heralded as a classic of kinds so it must be doing something right but unfortunately I just don’t see it.
However this film is a wonderful opportunity to marvel at the wonder that is Hugh Grant and his flippy floppy hair

Honestly, I'm not sure how I feel about Spill Zone yet. I wouldn't say it's bad. It's just surrounded by mystery all the way through, so I constantly felt like I missed an important detail somewhere along the way. I think the reader could have been clued in just a little more so that things weren't so up in the air. The premise is interesting enough for me to pick up volume 2, at least.

I can't tell why this doesn't quite work
This should be really good. The plot is sound, the actors are great, the direction works but somehow it didn't make me sit on the edge of the seat shaking like it should. It should be exciting and I should be scared as to what is going to happen but I was just meh. Its not bad at all, its just not amazing either.

Should have kept the original title "So I Hear You Paint Houses"
Not completely accurate but entertaining nonetheless
Decent "mob" movie
I dont know why I like mob movies so much, that lifestyle wasnt glamorous or anything to aspire to at all. But I'm just trash for mafia movies. It wasn't too bad.. I would still like to know what REALLY happened to Jimmy Hoffa.

Urgh the sex is getting worse (0 more)
Book 2 in the Steele Brothers Series - I am really torn about this series. I love the characters and the plot is really interesting, it has me hooked which is why I am still going, but seriously.... the sex scenes are so bad!!! If these were deleted or re-written then I would have given these books a much better review!
