if only for the 3D. I kinda like the kind that shoves shit in you face just for the hell of it. Also, maybe with no real prior knowledge about the story I'll be more open minded.
I've seen a lot of great 3D work. by Bungion Boy	Jul 12th, 2008 12:46:42 AM
I don't know if we need Cameron to reinvent it. I think it has been reinvented and looks great when used well. The presentation for films like Monster House and Meet the Robinsons really enhanced the film in just the right way. It was about tricks and gimmick. It just added a lot of texture and depth to world. Oh. And Roeper isn't a chad. He occasionally likes some awful films, but so do you, Harry. So do I. Roeper does seem to be big on pop culture more than actual films, but he's grown and learned a lot in the 8 years he's been doing the show. He'll never be Gene or Roger, but I'll take him over Leonard Maltin.

Although, I was more interested in journeying to the center of Arlene Dahl. Yummy.
Couldn't tell from the headline if Harry liked it or not by TheGhostWhoLurks	Jul 12th, 2008 12:49:38 AM
HONEST. He's got weird tastes. :P
SO ITS NOT GOOD? by Shia LaBeoufs Uncle	Jul 12th, 2008 12:49:40 AM
I didn't see that coming! I wonder whether or not MEET DAVE will be good? Or SPACE CHIMPS?
Little Spoiler.. by Errockk	Jul 12th, 2008 12:53:52 AM
Isn't there a scene where the boy receives a cell phone call? In the FUCKING CENTER OF THE EARTH? I don't get reception from my bedroom, what the hell is that.
TheGhostWhoLurks by Lost_Horizon	Jul 12th, 2008 12:59:51 AM
Good point. Actually, that's why I bothered to read the review. Usually, Harry cuts to the chase with his grotesquely descriptive headlines, and I can get the gist without having to click on the link. In this case, I wasn't sure either.
3D IS THE FUTURE by Shia LaBeoufs Uncle	Jul 12th, 2008 01:00:40 AM
If Pixar says 3D is the future, then its the future. UP will be my first 3D film experience, fuck all of these pretenders.
I love 3d by BrightEyes	Jul 12th, 2008 01:05:35 AM
3D Anything really
Peter Travers did NOT love it by Zeegloo	Jul 12th, 2008 01:13:34 AM
2.5/4 is HARDLY positive, especially when he said that a star is automatically deducted when you take away the 3D.
This is the real review for Indy 4 by wash	Jul 12th, 2008 01:17:37 AM
Or at least resembles it.
3D IS NOT THE FUTURE by Finding Forrestal	Jul 12th, 2008 01:20:52 AM
Or at least I hope not. In my mind, the future of theatrical film presentation is IMAX. Similar to what Chris Nolan did with THE DARK KNIGHT, but instead of 30 minutes of IMAX footage we get an entire film photographed that way. Hopefully it will be as revolutionary as CInemaScope was in early 50's.
"Hot bowl of steaming dick." by Finding Forrestal	Jul 12th, 2008 01:22:33 AM
Really?
One can never tell by Project424	Jul 12th, 2008 01:23:34 AM
I thought he was bashing Blade II that time... did Harry like it?
The funny thing is... by Finding Forrestal	Jul 12th, 2008 01:25:09 AM
Harry stole that line from Pauline Kael.
Dammit wash, you beat me to it by Harry Weinstein	Jul 12th, 2008 01:37:53 AM
In fact, pretty much just swap in the appropriate names and delete any mention of 3D and it becomes a convincing review of CRYSTAL SKULL.
Where´s Harry´s the Wall-E Review? by Chanoc	Jul 12th, 2008 01:38:26 AM
Did I missed it or is there no Wall-E review by Harry? If there´s not how come you´re giving this piece of turd a review and not a nod to the greatest little robot (besides R2-D2)?
Brave, Harry. Brave. by Fletch F. Fletch	Jul 12th, 2008 01:51:28 AM
Hating a G-rated kids movie, marketed on a gimmick and filmed almost entirely on a sound stage. What's next, posting a negative review of a Uwe Bolle film? Do they give marriage licenses to people who say things like, "a hot bowl of steaming dick?" I wouldn't think so. Marriage is for grown-ups.
LOL at you mocking other critics... by shaneo632	Jul 12th, 2008 02:03:07 AM
And calling Roeper a "chad" is beyond hilarious.
G-rated is no excuse for a shit made film - quite the contrary by HEADGEEK	Jul 12th, 2008 02:07:30 AM
A film doesn't need violence or disturbing imagery or harsh language to be an engrossing fantastic tale. This is a shoddy sloppy affair. Had they simply shot the book, they'd have a G-rated movie worth telling.
Hot Bowl of Steaming Dick by HEADGEEK	Jul 12th, 2008 02:08:49 AM
actually I stole the line from my wife, who heard it from a waiter at the BNAT pre-party last year.
But if it was made by one of his friends by DrPain	Jul 12th, 2008 02:15:35 AM
It would be a must see.
Harry... by Finding Forrestal	Jul 12th, 2008 02:25:10 AM
Do they at least do anything interesting with the idea that the Jules Vern book exists in their universe?
New headline Harry..... by Han Cholo	Jul 12th, 2008 02:31:24 AM
If Shit got Journey to the Center of the Earth on it, Shit would wipe it off.
Just saw Hellboy....... by Han Cholo	Jul 12th, 2008 02:33:15 AM
Damn that movie was awesome. Johann Krauss pretty much steals every scene he's in. Even when he says "Agent Hellboy", it's funny.
THANK GOD by The InSneider	Jul 12th, 2008 02:35:25 AM
Now this is the kind of no holds barred, take no shit review from Harry that I love and will always keep coming back for.
if 3-D is the future... by Holgi65	Jul 12th, 2008 02:42:33 AM
is doesn't look very bright. To me it seems as hyped as "virtual reality" years ago. Read yesterdays L.A. Times article about the reluctance of theater chains to install digital 3D projectors. They even get a "virtual print fee" of 1.000$ per film, but what use is that if the cinema is empty 'cause it's a bowl of... you know what. The little Shrek 3D playing in themeparks is surprsingly funny though...
I agree with Bolzonnia by DrPain	Jul 12th, 2008 02:58:56 AM
Coincidence? Future advice for directors, write to this site, make friends with these people and you’ll never get a bad review. I’m looking at you too, Eric Brevig.
Dear Harry by Silverglade	Jul 12th, 2008 02:59:47 AM
I wait for your TDK review and I wait without sleep, until it comes. Please let your TDK review happen.
Great review, Harry by No Respectable Gentleman	Jul 12th, 2008 03:40:57 AM
There's an immensely irritating review in Variety that sneers at the '59 classic and calls this version "mercifully updated". Quite scary that new travesty of Jules Verne is getting some positive feedback from mainstream critics.
But, Harry, you weren't the target audience. by Uncapie	Jul 12th, 2008 03:43:55 AM
Its made for ten year olds. Anyone can clearly see that. You should have brought your eight year old nephew. Let the kid decide if he was entertained or not. The audience I saw it with was filled with kids and their parents. They had a great time too. Sure, its suspension of disbelief(Like the scene where they fall 4,000 miles through a angular shaft and enter the center of the Earth in five minutes.), but so is a Bond or an Indiana Jones movie. Kids will enjoy it. Its 92 minutes of babysitting. Plus, Anita Briem is Icelandic, not Finnish and she's a very nice lady.
So basically Harry has only 2 reviews... by Scapulawings	Jul 12th, 2008 03:47:40 AM
Greatest thing ever! Worst thing ever! Lol... ok, then.

"It's made for kids!" by HEADGEEK	Jul 12th, 2008 04:58:54 AM
FUCK THAT SHIT! I call bullshit on that. Ya know what - the James Mason version was made for kids too. Gave a lot of kids a lot of good dreams and it managed to not be bad. As a work of adaptation - it fails. So what about aiming it at kids makes a cel phone signal work in the center of the Earth? So what about aiming it at kids makes a PSP log online in an airplane? Let me get this straight - because it is aimed at kids and more importantly FAMILIES... it is poorly acted and has terrible dialogue and dunderheaded plot changes from the original novel? Ya know - THE ADVENTURES OF ROBIN HOOD was aimed at kids, it didn't manage to suck. ET was aimed at kids, it's dialogue, acting and story elements were not terrible. You know - making a man of science an idiot isn't a way to inspire kids to be scientists. To make a film aimed at kids that has a kid call dibs sexually on the female character... oh, that's what we're talking about... right? You can capture kids with awe and wonder, with a stunning adventure - and you can certainly throw QUALITY VISUAL EFFECTS at them - but when a 21st century film's Jewel room is less spectacular than a film fifty years old, when giant fossilized mushrooms are less stunning than those in a 50 year old film's? I've shown that old rusty James Mason film to kids at my Kid's club - PACKED HOUSE btw - and they loved it. My nephew collects geodes and crystals as a result. Family film is one of my favorite genres. Did WALL-E dumb it down? Did it make the film banal and inadequate for an adult mind... or... perchance did the wizards at Pixar tell a story that would please an audience of ALL AGES?
great points Harry by kungfuhustler84	Jul 12th, 2008 05:03:32 AM
I was about to address the guy, but you basically said it all.
I didn't like the PUNISHER because by HEADGEEK	Jul 12th, 2008 05:12:38 AM
John Travolta fucking sucked in it. Because the had THE PUNISHER torture a man with a popsicle. I hated THE PUNISHER because it was fucking a piece of shit. I don't have a problem liking multiple films on the same weekend. I loved that WALL-E and WANTED both did their business - it means that no matter what - the audience won. I was genuinely excited when I heard the reviews were positive. I thought the trailers were bad, but hey - we've all seen bad trailers for good movies - off the top of my head... DEAD POET'S SOCIETY and GALAXYQUEST. If HELLBOY 2 fails at the box office... ya know what? Guillermo is still signed to direct THE HOBBIT - and I'm fairly sure that isn't box office poison - after all... Peter Jackson directed FRIGHTENERS before LORD OF THE RINGS - if anything, it'd signal a good luck charm.
It's funny what's considered for kids these days by Orionsangels	Jul 12th, 2008 05:35:38 AM
I was 8 watching nazi's faces melt off in Raiders of the lost ark. Shitting my pants.
Absolutely predictable review, and here's why... by Sledge Hammer	Jul 12th, 2008 06:06:54 AM
This is exactly the same shit Harry pulls EVERY SINGLE TIME one of his "special friends" film is coming up on it's opening weekend. He picks the most likely opponent opening against his buddy's film and then sets about to absolutely eviscerate it. Just like clockwork this happens every single time a Del Toro, Tarantino or Rodriguez film opens. Harry pisses on his buddy's competition at the box office, acting like it's a utterly worthless waste of money, just so he can pimp out the latest Del Toro / Tarantino / Rodriguez film in it's place, and hopefully help swing the box office in their favour. Ethics? At AICN? Never!

really harry... i like reading the reviews on this site because they are so obviously biased or paid off and it amuses me, i don't have a problem with it, but please just admit you're on the take, and stop pretending that you have any journalistic integrity!!
My theater was full, and clapped at the end. by Zombieflicker	Jul 12th, 2008 08:07:30 AM
Call me an idiot, but I haven't read Journey, and I haven't seen any of the movies. I might have tried to watch them as a kid but I don't remember it. That's probably why I enjoyed this movie. My 11 and 9 year old loved it, and I like that "stab in your face" 3D shit. I have fond memories as a kid seeing Spacehunter, Friday 3, and Jaws 3 in the theater and all of them were the same way. Yes, the story was dumbed down, and the effects won't win any awards. But Harry, if you can remember back when we were dumb ass 10 year olds, just remember some of the shit we used to watch over and over again. That's what this movie is. For me, watching this made me feel like a dumb ass 10 year old again, and I liked it.
...and you reviewed this but not WALL-E???\ by Zombieflicker	Jul 12th, 2008 08:09:11 AM

The Trouble With Harry by rhcp2sweet	Jul 12th, 2008 08:36:55 AM
The best part about Harry being on the take is that when talkbackers call him out on it, he doesn't respond in the talkbacks b/c he really has no defense. His biased reviews never fool anyone (Godzilla 98? FF: Rise of the Silver surfer?) and it's truly an insult to our intelligence that Harry acts like he isn't taking bribes or playing favorites. Just come clean Harry, it worked for Jason Giambi, it can work for you.
And THAT'S why you shouldn't trust ratings from Rotten Tomatoes by DerLanghaarige	Jul 12th, 2008 09:02:17 AM

Journey never had a chance here. So is the review of Hellboy 2 about warm vagina? Cause I know Harry will love the shit out of it. After Blade 2 I gave up on his reviews after I saw that POS film.

Homophobia?? by davebaxter1989	Jul 12th, 2008 10:02:14 AM
I think it's unbelievably homophobic to claim homosexuals drink 'hot bowls of steaming dick'. Thats more what cannibals do and I will definitely stand up for cannibalphobia, hate those bastards.

...but, the way you handled the review could have been with more tact. True, you write emotionally as all writers do, but you've lowered yourself to the lowest common denominator with this review and you're too good a writer to have allowed yourself to do that.

A "Hot Bowl of Steaming Dick" you say? by Sidepocket	Jul 12th, 2008 02:15:20 PM
Unless it is Guillermo del Toro's dick, then it is one hell of a fondue right Harry? rolls eyes Anyhow, 3D IS the future. Just like Digital and IMAX is. Here is the catch, you need a film first as a film that then has the feature added too it. Right now all 3D is poking people in the face, just like how IMAX was just making a movie big. The Dark Knight however stands as a film, it does not use IMAX as a crutch. So it is an amazing film that just HAPPENS to be shot in IMAX. That is what 3D needs. We need an amazing compelling and well acted film...that just HAPPENS to be shot in 3D. Then the studios will realize the potential like they are doing with IMAX now with The Dark Knight.
Hey McFly!!!!!!!!!!!!! by matineer	Jul 12th, 2008 02:20:44 PM
Read some books. Harry's list isn't a bad place to start. I switched from books to movies/TV at 12-- a mistake. Books are better and to make good TV/movies people need to know books. It's the circle of reel life.
calling Harry out on the juvenile headline! by shane420nsf	Jul 12th, 2008 02:42:55 PM
You guys, I'm a 40 year old GAY man-proud of it, but also still a huge geek/sci-fi/comic fanboy-there's more of us than you think. And I get why Harry or some other less evolved straight guys feel the need to say shit like this-or why they call Bryan Singer a fag and always bring up the fact that Joel Schumacher is gay when discussing"the steamimg bowl of twat juice"(yuck) that was Batman and Robin. Alot of you guys haven't had too many girlfriends-if any-and need to say things like that every once in awhile to make sure everyone knows that even though you like all this stuff, you're not gay-and being gay isn't cool-and so on. Enough already-this isn't grade school-it's the 21st century-it's not funny anymore-just kind of pathetic. Harry, you're married-you got yourself a female partner-no one will ever question whether yo're a red-blooded,chick-loving dude-so,why not set an example for these up and coming fanboys and dorks,huh? Do you even realize that w/o gay people, there would be no Hollywood as we know it-actors,directors,stuntmen,c reative staff,etc? How do you even make a steamimg bowl of dick? what is it-is it like a broth,or a stew w/ little pieces of cock in it? It's cool,dude-you're just drinking dick,not sucking it-that doesn't make you gay-so feel free to slurp down as much as you want-your manhood is intact-even if you still live w/ your Mom and play lots of on-line gaming and fan-made Star Trek episodes. As far as your review goes, I haven't seen it, but it sure looked like a steaming bowl of dog crap (see? that works as well...)-and 3d isn't enough to sell me a movie if the movie isn't good. I like Brendan Fraiser ALOT-and he has been letting his career slide a bit-although Mummy 3 is starting to look promising, so maybe there's hope. Now, if you'll excuse me, it's lunchtime-and I'm having a huge,steamimg bowl of delicious creamofsomeyoungguy-served at gay Chinese reataurants-followed by the thickest,meatiest,tastiet and fattest egg roll you've ever seen.Then a matinee of Hellboy 2 after getting properly baked-as I patiently wait 5 1/2 more days til my 7/19 3:ooam screening of THE movie- ps-harry-everyone already knows I'm a fag, so I don't care about losing any cred-I LOVED Indy 4-despite the things that sucked, it-to me-still was fun, and felt like Indy to me as well-and I think everyone's new favorite and overused buzzphrase is "nuke the fridge"-and your Love Guru review was quite accurate,as well. Rock on,everyone.Peace and love from San Francisco!
EARLY CINEMA by TheFlypaper	Jul 12th, 2008 02:44:06 PM
And I'm talking about when movies were still being shown in Vaudeville type settings, were full of gimmicky, hokey shit. It was just the first filmmakers playing around in a new medium. So why does it surprise anyone that the new 3D technology is any different? Let the directors like Cameron finish their first projects, establish a new cinematic language around the technology. THEN judge whether the transition has been worth it.

Calm the fuck down, man. While you may have a point about the general gay bashing that sometimes goes on here, it's a bit of a stretch to say that Harry's headline is homophobic. I mean, you're a gay man... does a hot bowl of steaming dick actually and literally sound appealing to you? I love breasts and vaginas. I don't exactly want to drink a hot soupy broth made from chopped breasts and vagina. And look, all that aside... It's not homophobic for a straight man to find the consumption of penis disgusting. That's pretty much the expected and normal reaction. If straight guys didn't find gay sex itself repulsive, they'd all be bi-sexual. I have a live and let live attitude about homosexuality, but gay sex is completely unappealing to me. You're not attracted to women. I'm guessing you probably find the notion of cunnilingus cringe-inducing. Harry doesn't want dick anywhere near his mouth. That doesn't make him a gay-bashing homophobe, anymore than the fact that you don't want to eat pussy makes you an intolerant hetero-hater. Honestly man... relax.

Harry, did you not see the trailer for Coraline? by Series7	Jul 12th, 2008 05:02:34 PM
The new Nightmare Before Christmas guy movie? I thought that looked pretty cool? Plus it seems like Henry doesn't have Christopher Columbus fucking up his shit like your cameo in Monkeybone. I didn't see this but I saw U23D, and I thought that 3D use was amazing, is this not the same?
Kind talkbackers everywhere and Skraggo... by shane420nsf	Jul 12th, 2008 05:56:02 PM
Guys,didn't mean to be so serious-and I certainly don't think Harry is a gay-basher - I was trying to be a little humorous and sardonic while making a point-one already addressed earlier by other posters- that the title of the article seemed slightly homophobic-like . I actually said it was juvenile-which made me finally sound off about the fair amount of comments that are a little hateful. Didn't mean to stir anyone up so much,Skraggo-seems like you may need to relax a bit yourself there,pal,-believe me, I am a very low key person- and very little truly offends me-I don't find women or thethought of being w/ one repulsive or cringe-inducing,btw-yet another gay stereotype-like all lesbians wear flannel shirts and wear tool belts. I did ,however,went way off topic-which is always irritating, I agree-esp when we should be discussing harry's review,which movies are good, which ones suck, and why that is. "lame title, but funny,well written review that is probably very accurate. Love the site and check it everyday." "Time to see Hellboy,then read what everyone else thought about it. Life is short-go see a movie today,then discuss...
shane420nsf -- it's coup de la... by Skraggo	Jul 12th, 2008 06:46:57 PM
I hear you. Let the relaxing begin. I can't argue with you about the "juvenile" part. Remember, Harry is the guy who once favorably compared a movie to "chocolate covered pussy juice." Again... not something that even straight men necessarily want to consume. So, you shouldn't have been surprised when, to Harry, the opposite of "Chocolate Covered Pussy Juice" is "Hot Bowl of Steaming Dick." Anyway, I think we can both agree of all the things Harry may or may not be, Shakespeare ain't one of them. Gotta love the big guy, though.

Remember all the crap 3-D back then? Hollywood don't care about 3-D. Stick it at the Camera. It's in Ohhhhh 3-Deeeee. Cameron will save us with some great 3-D but yes the crap will sink it again as a replacement for regular movies.

You're basically arguing that a hot steamin' bowl of dick is appealing. Dick, like it or not, is synonymous with disgust and unlikeability. What can I say? It's a straight man's world.

You complain bitterly about the "credibility" of a mobile phone and PSP working in unfavorable conditions - but are prepared to give a resounding pass to INDY 4 on the following issues: "magnetic" gunpowder that flies through the air? a nuclear bomb testing site within walking distance of Area 51? A fridge that protects a person from a direct-hit nuclear blast AND from the impact of being catapulted hundreds of metres through the air? And you've no problem with this??? Shia leBoeuf swinging through the trees, leading a bunch of monkeys? Falling over not one, not two but THREE waterfalls in a steel boat with no injuries? A randonly telepathic alien skull that manages to transmit messages both at high altitudes and far beneath the earth? You praise all this and yet have the nerve to criticise other movies for stretching some irrelevant details. Do you have ANY idea of how STUPID you have made yourself look? You've completely destroyed any pretence of impartiality and credibility that remained to you. Your opinion no longer counts for anything except as an object of hilarity and derision.

This movie looked atrocious from the first preview. You know all those positive reviews on rottentomatoes? Go read them. Most of them note that the only redeeming feature of the film is the 3d gimmicry. This movie was made solely to capitalize on the 3d trend, and it shows through in spades.

I didn't get this bent out of shape about Harry's terrible reviews for Michael Bay films. Sure, I mock them (and, of course, the infamous Godzilla review), but you guys seem to be genuinely personally offended at his Indy IV review. I can only account for this in one of two ways: Either you got your hopes for KOCS from Harry's review and were bitter;y disappointed when the houselights came up and it became brutally obvious that Harry was grasping at straws and you'd been had (I wasn't so easily fooled, so I wasn't as disappointed to find out that it sucked about as much as I thought it would), or, alternatively, you can't believe that Journey to the Center of the Earth ("IN 3D!!!") actually sucked as bad as it sounds.

I loves crap while hating greats and loves greats while hating crap. Valley Girl best movie ever in the same universe where Soderbergh's Kafka blows. blah blah blah... he's a man with a rubberband in his gut.

Harry, Are you retarded? And how does Hollywood take you serious by nukedthefridge	Jul 13th, 2008 12:46:43 AM
I just got back from seeing this movie. Though it isn't Citizen Kane, it is actually pretty fun. But fine, you actually didn't like the movie. Besides the obvious thought that it must be because New Line didn't fill your pockets with enough money, you are entitled your opinion. But your review is childish and moronic. First get Brendan Fraser's name right...its spelled "Fraser." Secondly, "go fuck his nephew"? Well go fuck your nephew. People are fucking tired of hearing you talk about your nephew. But lastly...you realize the movie was set in Iceland right??? In Iceland they speak Icelandic, not Finnish you retard. And if you ever got your ass out of your wheelchair to go travel outside of this country, you would know that the people of Iceland, like most of the rest of the world outside the U.S. speak English, most perfectly. You are a total buffoon.

Can't quite understand the logic of slating a film that is clearly aimed at being a piece of brainless fun and doesn't aim to be anything else. As people point out- you praised Crystal skull which errrr pissed of 90% of it's 'actual' core audience (us kids of the 70's and 80's) and the other 10% the 'new' target audience couldn't give a fuck about it. I can think of more examples but I can't be bothered. The fact is you will give a negative review to people outside your group of favoured directors, but when it comes to getting a proper review about a possibly great film makers career miss step you will either wimp out with a 'wow wasn't this film crazy, I don't know what it was about, but it was great!' review or you'll completely go over the top over it. Enough of the 'Dick' euphanisms too. How old are you?

Harry, Harry, Harry...nothing like getting things ass backwards by BlutoBlutarsky	Jul 13th, 2008 09:16:39 AM
You love the original? It's believable? Survivable? Gertrude THE FUCKING Goose??? Even as a kid I thought that movie was total shit. Talk about steaming bowl of dick. You even have a refugee from a men's underwear ad running around in a loincloth to drive home the point. Yet you hated this movie. The 3-D was the worst? Obviously you never sat through movies like Jaws 3D, Spacehunter, or Robert Rodriquez's attempts at 3-D, Spy Kids 3 and The Adventures of Shark Boy and Lava Girl. Those movies tried to use red and blue filter glasses to bring out the 3-D. What super genius Rodrigues didn't seem to realize is you can't do that with a movie that is IN COLOR. Every hint of red or blue in the movie bleeds out the 3-D effect, and the only thing it does is make you cross eyed. Now, was this version of Journey an award winner? God, no. But is it shit? Absolutely not. The story moves briskly, although there are many plot holes to dodge, and the actors are capable, likeable, and don't grate on the nerves. But ultimately the enjoyment of this movie is based on its visual effects, and the 3-D experience, which I'm glad to say, is first rate. There are the typically redundant "comin' at ya" 3-D moments that serve no purpose other than to drive the effect home. But mostly the effects actually serve the story. They do what they are meant to do, which is put you in the moment. They make you feel like you are in this environment, and more than once I saw people in the theater ducking and dodging incoming objects. So, as a flat 2-D experience, the movie would be an enjoyable, if forgettable movie. As 3-D experience, however, it's a great time at the movies. Harry needs to unwrap his mouth from around Guillermo Del Toro's knob, and straighten his ass out. But then Harry was probably the ONLY person in existence to say he couldn't wait to see Speed Racer again. So I ask you, does this man's opinion really mean anything to anyone anymore?

3D the future? by SeattleBuff	Jul 13th, 2008 09:48:04 AM
it's more like a blast from the past, just jazzed up with the digital element. trouble is, you STILL HAVE TO WEAR THE GLASSES. it's cumbersome, annoying and not as cool as Hollywood tries to make you think. i know Cameron is touting it (and Katzenberg is crazy about it and pissed that theater owners aren't falling in line with his plans) and maybe AVATAR will change my mind, but I'd still have to wear the damn glasses for 2.5 hours. one thing Hollywood forgets is the added dimension of size and scope. one of the greatest movie experiences was a giant, curved screen showing a movie in CINERAMA, 70mm or TODD AO. that seems to have slipped their minds. i love the clarity of digital projection, but i miss the size and the sweep of a huge curved screen. IMAX is nice, but it's a giant square...and if the movie isn't in true IMAX, it's just a regular scope image on the wall. it looks like a giant letterbox presentation on the IMAX screen.

CELL SIGNAL AT THE CENTER OF THE EARTH!" by David Cloverfield	Jul 13th, 2008 10:53:45 AM
I'm puzzled by that complaint. If there are living conditions atthe center of the earth, I can imagine magnetic plates... I dunno... giving a boost to telecommunication devices. My retarded point is, if this is a movie based on a fantasy concept for kids, what kind of idiot goes crazy over a detail like that. I'm not saying it's a good movie, it's just a weird thing to complain about (Just like I didn't have a problem with fridge nuking. It's the same kind of thing.)

the best commentary on Harry's reviews by Juggernaut125	Jul 13th, 2008 07:02:11 PM
Came from Scapulawings. Harry seems to need to either love a movie so much that he would want to have sex with it, or else it's an atrocity to the world of cinema. He doesn't seem to register any middle ground. Even when he gives a movie a lackluster review, it always registers as a dissapointment. You're very odd Harry. Sucks to be you.

He's needed a new one for a long time actually. After Gods and Monsters I said, "ok, now we've seen his range, maybe he'll finally grasp on to at least a few oscar-worthy screenplays". Well, no. Funny, the same thing has continued for Eddie Murphy after Dreamgirls. His movies also make me only want to hold my nose. Shame.
what is it with Harry and DICKS anyway?? by Maniaq	Jul 14th, 2008 06:43:55 AM
why do we have to wait for Cameron for someone to "get" 3D? Nolan filmed sequences in Dark Knight 'specially for the 3D right? I missed it, but I heard the Harry Potter 3D was actually awesome and the same goes for some of the IMAX stuff that is less feature and more... show-off... So can we get Cameron off this fucking pedestal already?

3D by DIBARAHMAN	Jul 14th, 2008 07:48:14 AM
I see this whole 3D business in terms of creativeness. In the hands of a complete twat, its useless. But same as the way CGI was crap in the early days, now CGI can be sublime in its usage. I think when Pixar sit down and write a film specifically for 3D; maybe they are;, then we will see just how masterful 3D can be.
3-D is a lame gimmick... by Kid Z	Jul 14th, 2008 09:02:10 AM
...that gets unearthed out of its grave and propped up again every 20-30 years or so. There are few directors creative enough to work with the process so you get all the same lame things time after time (shit thrown in your face, paddleballs bouncing at you, etc. People inevitably get sick of it and those effin' glasses are a pain to wear, make you look like an idiot and give you a headache. So the fad is back, but not to worry, it'll die again soon enough. Then, around 2030 or so, some moron will attenpt to bring it back again.

You're kind of being an idiot when you are nitpicking about a PSP getting internet at 30,000 FT in a movie where DINOSAURS live in the center of the earth! Jesus H Christ man, you of all people should understand the suspension of disbelief factor. My kid liked it a lot. That fact definitely makes me like it more than I would if I weren't a dad, but even without kids I probably would have caught it on HBO and not felt like I had completely wasted an evening.

I wasn't a fan, but the bit with the popsicle is from a punisher comic I have. I can't remember which issue or if it was War Journal or the regular series but it was definitely early to mid 90's. Travolta did indeed bring the suck though. But Thomas Jane was great. It had moments but fell flat. Journey to the center of the earth looks like trash. Skippin' it. Give me good 3D and I hope that includes Neil Gaiman's Coraline.

Wait, isn't his nephew the kid from Bridge to Terrabithia? by Drath	Jul 17th, 2008 06:08:35 PM
He was great in that, so he's talented, even if you didn't like him in this. Just calling out bullshit when I see it.
Harry...retract the Indy 4 Review by ScottinDC	Jul 18th, 2008 12:53:46 PM
It's giving your usual posse of fanboiz too much ammo to attack you when you shit on a film like this for being 'unbelievable'. Please, for the love of all that is holy in cinema, retract your fucking Indy 4 review. And do so now.
Wait...Harry didn't like something? by WillowFan2001	Jul 19th, 2008 05:20:42 PM
I mean, I know it's an easy target, being a crappy movie and all, but still...Harry thinks a movie is crap?! I never thought I'd live to see this day. It's a beautiful day. Mr. Knowles, even though I will probably reinstate many of them in the future (i.e., the next time you praise an overhyped piece of crap), I hereby take back fully one-third of all the bad things I have ever said about you.
This was a kind of unnecessary review.... by BatVomit	Jul 20th, 2008 09:17:16 PM
...as anyone with an above retarded IQ who's seen the preview would instantly recognize that this movie would be complete and utter shit. Oh, and the Mummy 3 is going to blow also.
Fuck Brendan Fraser... by loafroaster	Jul 21st, 2008 05:39:51 PM
...fuck his stupid hair impants and his massive ass. He's sucked in everything after Encino/California Man.
Please, Harry HeadShill by Bob Dobbs	Jul 23rd, 2008 04:37:55 PM
You didn't like this movie (or Punisher) because the studio didn't give you enough schwag, comps, blowjobs, whatever. Another awful, barely-literate review. No surprise there.
sigh For God's sake, Harry... by THT3000	Jul 25th, 2008 12:01:31 PM
First of all: So much of this is incorrect. The movie takes place in Iceland NOT Finland! Look, it goes like this: Canada - Greenland - Iceland - Feroe Islands - Denmark - Norway - Sweaden - Finland - Russia There is a pretty big diffence, y'know. And why the shit would they cast Reachel Weiz as the love interest when the acress that played her was FUCKING ICELANDIC?!?! And second of all: I'm from Iceland. I'm sixteen. I know very well what "dibs" is. A lot of us do. Why assume otherwise?
when I was a kid... by redkamel	Aug 3rd, 2008 09:57:53 PM
I dont know about you guys, but even when I was 10 I would be able to spot inconsistencies like cell phones working in the middle of the earth, and animals living somewhere where the ocean boils every 10 years. It called common sense. in terms of realism, there is fantasy and there are rules. It is acceptable that superman can turn back time. He is superman. Angelina Jolie can curve bullets, whatever. It is not acceptable that Supermans grits would cook faster than everyones elses, ,a Nokia would get reception at the core of the earth, or Polly Perkins film is not exposed in a radioactive mine. Sorry for the really random movie references. I never thought I'd mix superman and my cousin vinnie.
Indy 4 by redkamel	Aug 3rd, 2008 10:06:46 PM
people hate the Indy 4 review because it was generally positive for a movie that sucked and let everyone down. There. I said it. Indy 4 sucked, and anyone who tells you different is lying. It had many parts that were out of place unrealistic and not funny, unlike any other Indiana Jones movie. Please compare monkey vine swinging /fridge/alien ship/macguffin ruining all puzzles/villainess killed for no reason to any other indiana jones scene in terms of ridiculousness. You only have to pick one of those btw. I speak for myself and probably others, but thats why the Indy 4 review sucked and why AICN lost big cred with me on that one.
just saw it by slkboxrman	Aug 9th, 2008 09:02:28 PM
im no scientist but i felt the cell phone working in the center of the earth was satisfactorily explained by the reverse magnetic field.....cuz his cell phone DID NOT work right after the cave in trapped them in the mountain..and worked later after they mentioned the magnetic variance....i dont care if its not scientifically plausable but it made it make sense in my mind....its a movie, i dont put a lot of mind towards what isnt realistic... decent movie tho
Best opening line I've read in a very long time. by pandabait	Aug 12th, 2008 02:17:15 PM
Fan-tastic. The first sentence rocks too; tells me all I need to know. Bravo!
Wrong! Tastes like ASS by Dark Doom	Aug 15th, 2008 06:42:13 PM
WTF knows what ass or dick tastes like (cept my wife)?
JOURNEY 3D Yikes! by talktopete	Sep 1st, 2008 05:52:04 PM
Wow. What a shitty review and unprofessional too (my opinion). The theater I saw it in was packed. The kids loved it! It is a rated "G" movie for Christsakes! What do you want from it?? Don't you remeber the days of the "Sinbad" movies and going to the matinees? You drop the ball here, and you were rude too.
CEL PHONE BULLSHIT by talktopete	Sep 1st, 2008 06:11:56 PM
Stop bitching about "realism in movies already!! Have you seen Iron Man or The Dark Knight???? Movies aren't real Harry, they are fantasy!! My friend HATED Iron Man because the Character flew through his ceiling and didn't get it fixed. He actually said "dude, he left a hole in his ceiling, he's a billioinaire, someone could've climbed thru and ripped him off!!" I liked the cel phone bit during "journey" it was funny. He kept trying to reach his mom throughout the film then she calls during an attack by prehistoric fish says "we're on a fishing trip!" I suppose you hate the gopher scene in Caddyshack too.
