L.A. Rush

OK people look, when you see a great star in the title you would expect a great movie, and for me this was great! Yes it is not a killer action flick, however, it is an awesome movie that will take you away for just a little bit. It has the whole "After Hours" movie feel to it, meaning you do not know what is going to happen next! When Spider said "Google it holmes", I fought the urge to chuckle but it did not work, I chuckled!! John Goodmans "lost, not giving a crap anymore vibe" was great! All in all it was a movie that, again, takes you away for a bit. By the way the graffiti on the building, all be it raunchy, was freaking funny!!

Oh wow, where to start? The writing is horrible, the editing is horrible, the plot is predictable yet is also a confusing mess, the cinematography is bland and characterless, the jokes are not funny even if you are a fan of crude humour. The characters are boring and performed with extremely low energy. Bruce Willis looks like he doesn't give a *. John Goodman looks like he doesn't give a *. That guy who played Jeb Shrute in the office is irritating and unlikable. The whole film lacks one extremely important thing, EMOTION. You hate every character because none of them have any emotion. The editing hurts you as you watch it because it provokes no form of emotion. In the setting of Venice, there is a good chance for some really interesting cinematography. Nice looking set pieces, colouring, intricate shots. Sadly no emotion is put into the cinematography, everything is just filmed. It felt like 5 seconds before they started rolling they just handed someone a camera and said "oh yeah by the way, film this." I am honestly confused by the sheer amount the makers of this film were able to * it up. If they had just filmed Bruce Willis as a detective looking for his dog, as the plot describes, sure we wouldn't have anything special, but it wouldn't be this overly complicated sh*t stain. If you want a good detective comedy done right WATCH THE NICE GUYS. Everything i describe as being bad in this film is done just perfectly in Shane Black's 'The Nice Guys' and i would definitely recommend it. However, 'Once Upon A Time In Venice' is a stinking, boring, messy turd. Skip this one.

OK..so its been a while since he was in a good movie , we thought him lost..and he returns in the most glorious way with John Goodman !! its old school Willis..fun and action in a delightful combination I loved loved loved it !!! Any old Bruce Willis fans will love it is he getting older , yes he is , does it matter..not one bit..so be rdy for Willis skateboarding naked and a ton more ..its fun and action like we where used too.. Watch it..just..Watch it

Not even sure how this 2 hours of film was even made. It was so extremely bad that it held your attention just to see how much worse it could get. In that aspect, I was not disappointed. Just watching a very naked Bruce Willis skateboarding down Venice Blvd made me realize this movie was going to go down the drain fast. You just can't unsee things now that I've seen a 60 year old Bruce naked. Yikes. No one dies, but it's the John Wick idea if John Wick was an idiot. Over a stolen dog begins the chain of events that leads down moron street and dead ends in the cul-de-sac of "why am I watching this". As for Jason Momoa trying to portray a Latino gang banger drug lord named Spyder was just hilarious because we all know Jason Momoa just can't act. Leave the shirt off Jason and just don't speak please. Wow, I want my 2 hours back.

I watched this film last night and was pleasantly surprised. A cast of A listers from the last 20 years, and a plot line that didn't result in me knowing what was going to happen well in advance. The jokes kept me laughing and the story kept me interested. Overall give it a 7.5 out of 10 .
