Hey have you seen Gemini Man yet?
No not yet, how was it?
Well I have mixed feelings about it. Will Smith is one of my favorite actors and has made some of my favorite films, like I Am Legend, 7 Pounds, and The Pursuit of Happiness. But i'm not getting that same feeling from his latest film.
Oh I understand that, he's one of my favorite actors too and i've cried from just about all those movies because they were so touching and the suspense was incredible.
Right that's what I mean he really captured the audience with those films but this newest film didn't do that for me.
Well that's somewhat understandable being that it's an action film.
I know that, but even still the story just didn't hold my attention like the others did.
So you're saying the story was a bit bland?
Yes. but it was also somewhat incoherent and they tried to make up for the holes in the story with fast paced action scenes.
That's unfortunate because i was looking forward to a suspenseful thriller like his previous films.
Yeah me too, I really enjoy films that leave you wondering about the ending, or ones that make you think and pay attention to clues throughout.
Absolutely when a movie can throw you off and keep you guessing that it a great feeling. I never like being able to figure out an ending before the movie is over.
Unfortunately this is one of those, but I will say that the action scenes were well made and people who go to shows simply for action won't be to disappointed.
That's one good thing I guess. I have been hearing a lot of mixed reviews lately so i'm glad you've seen it because we tend to have similar taste in films.
That's true. So if you don't go see that one I have heard that The Joker is excellent.
Oh I have too! I think i'll go see that this weekend instead.
