That pretty much says it all.

Oh man this looks awful. (http://www.joblo.com/video/player.php?video=fpwl-tsr1)

[Lasse]

I'm out. :lol:

[megladon8]

I'm out. :lol:


John Travolta has a really huge head. Physically, I mean. That's one honkin' noggin.

Looks terrible bald.

Yeah, that's not his best look. That 'stache doesn't help either.

[Spun Lepton]

What the hell ... ?! :|

[Stay Puft]

"Well that's all you got here. Motherfucker."

Yeah. I'm in. :lol:

Trailer on Apple. (http://www.apple.com/trailers/lions_gate/frompariswithlove/)

Looks retarded.

I wonder if this director's schtick is going to be "take an aging actor and make him a badass with Bourne-like action scenes."

Travolta looks ridiculous.

[The Mike]

I'm in. Not as in as I was for Taken or will be for District B13 2, but I'm in.

[megladon8]

I still just can't get over Travolta's "look" in this movie.

And his chubbiness makes those action scenes look about as believable as some of the stuff Segal did in Exit Wounds.

[The Mike]

That's exactly what I want. Combine Exit Wounds and Morel = Me watching.

[Ivan Drago]

I thought Taken was fun. Expecting more of the same here.

[Dukefrukem]

I like Travolta's look. And I feel like he pulls off every look as a bad guy in every film he's ever done... including Battlefield Earth.

edit: tell me that special effects rocket shot isn't finished.

[MadMan]

Taken was decent/average, but still entertaining. This looks like something of a step up from that, but not by a whole lot. So naturally I will see it.

[Morris Schæffer]

Looks like fun. Worth a download at least.

[Dukefrukem]

Sorry for the bump, but this was on Instant Netflix and was under 90 minutes so I watched it over the weekend. I have to say it wasn't as terrible as I was expecting (with the exception of the climax)

Travolta pulls this role off, rather unexpectedly. I think he's great, with the exception of some very lame gun fights, his personality fills the mold to which is needed. Hard for me to give it a yay, but definitely not a total bore.

[Skitch]

On rewatching both, I enjoyed this more than Taken.

[Dukefrukem]

Let's not get carried away.

[Skitch]

Taken's best moments are used up on the first viewing. They don't replay that great.
