Critical Consensus: Not So Cool
Summary
You know what they say – sequels are rarely better than the originals. “Be Cool,” the sequel to 1995’s “Get Shorty,” opens this weekend and continues that trend. Also opening this weekend are the family comedy “The Pacifier” and the sci-fi thriller “The Jacket.” Back to Article

on Mar 09 2005 09:21 AM [b]I liked The Pacifier[/b] Ha! I was right on the audience take on The Pacifier, as well as the dull audience response for Be Cool. I called The Pacifier a hit on RT. Okay, it was not a good movie, but Vin has a winner here and it means we'll see him in Guys & Dolls sooner than he has threatened. Even though I get criticized for reviewing the audience, they are the people who stand in line for hours. We were told that the line for Diary of a Mad Black Woman started at 4PM for the 7:30PM promotional screening here in Las Vegas. (Reply to this) |
