Movie Reviews
"Where's The Ka-Boom?"
2 great actors starring in a "comedy" that just is NOT funny whatsoever!
Sigh....
Well, I had forgotten I had already seen this movie once, but I had forgotten how terrible it was.
The bad: this movie (labeled as a "comedy") simply is NOT funny whatsoever. And I mean I did not laugh once. Nor did I smile. Nor was there the tinniest smirk on my face.
Why did this movie fail so terribly. Well, it isnt a slapstick movie and it isnt an action movie either. So it is trying to mix two movie genres and ending up being neither.
Not any good then? The camera work is allright. It doesnt look like it was a movie that was rushed or was battered with financial difficulties. They really tried to make a decent comedy, but they failed. Full stop.
