Maybe because I'm so familiar with it now, but all of the dialogue feels like it is set up on a T-ball tee for every character to knock predictably out of the park (in an endearing way.) Plus, Bernie Mac, I mean c'mon.
Favorite movie of one of my favorite trilogies. Fun type work, cheesy zooms/transitions, the laser dance, family reveals, Bruce Willis cameo, amazing soundtrack. It gets flack for being so silly and over the top but that’s what makes it amazing! Oceans eleven was such a smash hit they could do whatever they wanted with twelve and knocked it out of the park.
In college I went to the same Mexican place every day for a burrito, got the same coffee at the same Dunkin’ Donuts every morning Years later im in a new area following the same philosophy, I eat a chicken bruschetta wrap at the same place every time I go out for lunch and still get the same coffee at the same local Dunkin’ Donuts every morning. I frequent the same full service gas station, go to the same mechanic, Kevin, buy groceries from the same local mart, get my hair cut by the same barber, buy any and all hardware misc from the same little hardware store, Jeds. When your order gets prepared the second you walk in, and you have a relationship with your daily’s, your life is in a better place.
And I mean completely out of cell service with the only option for connection being a 20+ minute drive to town. Just got back from this and feeling REFRESHED.
