Oh Kevin. What happened to you Kevin? You made some great films, then some not so great ones and then you seemed to fall right off the radar. And then there was Mr. Brooks. Not exactly spectacular stuff but it seemed like you were on your way back but alas, it materialized into nothing and sadly your track record doesn’t seem to be getting any better.
Tell me, why. Why you would agree to star in a movie which is such a sadly obvious attempt to say something poignant about the current state of the economy? In The Company Men you’re going to play a drywall installer who gives his recently laid off from Wall Street brother-in-law a job. I’m assuming that somewhere in there you’re also going to teach him a lesson about how money isn’t everything and that it’s the little things that matter. I know working alongside Ben Affleck is exciting but I have a feeling you signed on to work with Tommy Lee Jones whose role is to play the moral catalyst in the entire thing, likely stepping up to his greedy partners. Or maybe you’re just doing for it for the money. I can respect that; I know that producing a follow up to Dances with Wolves is expensive but maybe you should have waited for Mr. Brooks 2: A Daughter’s Revenge to start production.
Will I watch? Maybe not. I thought I’d give you another chance with Swing Vote but I couldn’t even get up the energy to rent the bloody thing never mind take myself to the theatre to see it. At this rate, your HSX stock must be in the $.50 range. I don’t want to lose faith in you but when you keep making films that sound this bad, it can’t be helped. But who knows. Maybe I’ll be surprised. If anyone can surprise me Kevin it’s you.
At least I still have my extended version of Waterworld to keep me going for a little longer but give this girl a break. You’re killing me and at some point, you’re going to have to give me a lifeline.
He had too much power, too much control and it destroyed him,,,,,
Nothings free in Waterworld.
Too much power. Maybe. I just want him in a good movie already!
Yeah, I looked at IMDB and realized he hadn’t been in anything that grabbed my attention since Open Range, which was 2003. Still, I’ve always liked him in whatever movie he appears, even if I didn’t like the movie. And I appreciate he’s never done a sequel, especially a cash in sequel. Regardless of the quality of movie, at least what he does is original.
But I hope there’s another hit on the horizon soon too for ol’ Crash Davis.
not a fan. just something about him that grinds my gears. i think it started with The Untouchables. so flat. so little personality and charisma.
He is the new face of THY (Turkish Airlines). They started the campaign, a few days later a plane of THY crashed in Amsterdam killing 9 people. I like him but perhaps this guy is only bad luck
Holy crap! Talk about bad luck!
