In Reply to: RE: Good point. One thing that really stood out: Winona Ryder. posted by tinear on March 16, 2014 at 16:23:55
Waiting for the come uppence for the bad guys
Franco tried but wimped more than threatened
I do agree Winona was great-gritty and true to character--pity wasted in this dosh.
I think though the earthy look and roles may be her saviour now.

misunderstood my point about Winona: she is NOT convincing, to me, as a low-life. I thought the film failed, partially, because neither she nor Franco can really play anything but what they obviously are---- smart, arty.
...you two are very full of yourselves.
It's a popcorn action flick, that like most, is not meant for condescending part-by-part critical assessment.
You suspend reality and enjoy it - or you don't.
A guilty pleasure, not intended to be great cinema by any means.
Your logic would lead one to sit through any shit, quietly and obediently.
99% of films are entertainment. This one was one of the poorer of that 99% in current release. Still, it was better than reading the airline magazine for the third time or trying to figure out which passenger's fart was wafting to my unappreciative nostrils.
...who thinks "Road House" is in the top 1%.
