One of the weirdest movie premises, with the most mis-matched cast. This film is from 2010, after Mickey Rourke did The Wrestler and Iron Man 2. He should be going onwards and upwards, not skittering sideways. Bill Murray and Megan Fox also star in this film about a down-and-out trumpet player who discovers a beautiful girl at a carnival - who has wings. The CGI/green screen effects look dated, like someone is just fiddling with the technology for the very first time. In their basement. And the wrap-up, holy crapoly. We are talking clutching-at-straws-no-sleep-against-a-deadline-how-does-this-end desperation here. Someone clearly threw in the towel on this film, I am just shocked they got these actors to go down with them. Well, maybe not so surprised that Fox went along with it...
I cannot imagine life without movies, but am in no way what one might typically think of as a film student. I admit to watching and often enjoying foreign films, but to be perfectly frank I love nothing more than your down n’ dirty cheesy Hollywood action flick. Generally I watch all sorts of films so have a recommendation for almost anyone; except horror (no point with my eyes shut) or anything depressingly sad (film is for fun, not tears). This is raw “real me to real you” film feedback.
