This is one of the worst movies I've ever seen. It's much more enjoyable with the sound turned off. Love Jason in a wetsuit!

Oh, God it was horrible. I should grab my review from my lj ...
First the shallow: Throughout the movie I could not help but comment on how frickin' GOOD Jason looked ... because he looked really, really good. Super-pretty. Super-hot. Super-handsome. GO-OOD! Yummy! But the movie? Crap. Really. Crap with a capital "C." I honestly don't know which was worse: (A) The script (B) The direction or (C) the music. The music was really, really, REALLY bad. REALLY BAD!!!! The script was weak and sparse, but not in a poetically spare way, but rather a 'we had no idea what dialogue to put here so we figured we'd include lots of shots of nothing happening and hope we get a good director who can make them interesting.' Alas, the director (who *sigh* co-wrote this) was unable to elevate the crapfest that was script in any way, shape or form. It was stagnant and meandering and just LA-AME!!! So, so, so bad. Hmm, can I just say that all three sucked and leave it at that? The sad thing is that the plot in and of itself was actually a good one; it was just that the script/direction and overall execution of it bit the big one. Some of the acting was okay, but geez, Michael Dorn, did all that Star Trek make-up take away any acting skill you once had or would you THAT bored? The good? Jason. Very pretty. His acting? It was okay. Really not the best highlight of his talent, and I'd highly recommend never showing this to someone if you're trying to convince them just how talented an actor he is. Jason was seriously hindered by the GOD-AWFUL script and GOD-AWFUL direction, which put him at an okay level with some moments where his natural talent shone through despite the dialogue he was spouting and dead direction "guiding" him. Oh and he was pretty. Ooh, ooh and in one of the scenes with the love interest, there was skipping!! And hopping!! It was wonderful!!! (And pretty.) Oh, and yeah, good kisser. He gives good screen kiss. I officially blame every crappy kiss of Logan and Veronica at Kristen Bell's door ... because he gives good screen kiss (the only crappy kisses I've seen him participate in were with Bell, so yeah, blaming her. It's ALL her!). My favorite part was when he wrapped his arm around her waist and pulled her closer, it was just so suave and sexy and romantic. Yeah, gives good screen kiss. Also ... uhm, he spends about a quarter of the film shirtless, and another quarter to a half in a wetsuit. He dives a lot. Yay!! He also plays guitar at one point. Yes, guitar. He looked so pretty in his bare feet strumming the chords. Overall? Bad, bad, bad movie. It's no Black Cadillac -- which I really did think was pretty good. But Jason? Sure done brought the pretty. |

Quote: I have to say this totally sums up my opinion as well! Given the amazing limitations the actors were working with (ie the script and direction as noted above) I think they did a very good job. And boy oh boy was Jason pretty! |
