Philip Baker Hall
Reviews Featuring Philip Baker Hall
This is a decent action film that provides good solid entertainment plus a great big bomb explosion, but it doesnt have the depth of either its predecessors or the Clancy novels.
Typical Carrey comedy it's got a few funny moments, but more often than not it's just plain annoying.
Confronting viewers with an ugly picture of themselves that some may not wish to see, this fable of corruption, exploitation and vengeance in a one-dog town is a classic story told in a bold new way, with never a dull moment.
Im not saying this is a long film, but you could watch Weekend At Bernies TWICE in an equivalent amount of time. Nuff said.
Please, please, please dont let the grossly misleading trailers put you off this isnt a forgettable rom-com, but a wonderfully observed comedy drama. One of the most enjoyable flicks and biggest surprises of the year.
Punchy, frightening, and far slicker than the original - but for all the refurbishment, something's still not quite right with this haunted house.
