) but it seems to be getting mixed reviews. I loved Get Shorty but is this a worthy follow on?we went to see it last weekend, it was entertaining, we laughed in places, but it was a crap film.
The acting was fairly wooden in places and the "wigger" (lead from Dodgeball) was way to OTT to the point where he was plain annoying rather than funny. The pisstaking of itself and the movie bussiness is funny (you can only say
once, honda insight as his "cool" car etc)
There isn't anything else out at the moment, and it's worth a 2-4-1 but nothing more than that.

From what I've heard its similar to Oceans 12 alot of smug looking stars poncing around thinking their cool.
The story was fairly limp, and it was a little bit too smug and knowing for my taste. I also thought there were too many in-jokes and self-references, as though its target audience was actors and music industry executives, and all those songs/music videos just screamed "filler" to me.
Having said all that, The Rock was awesome (as is to be expected).
Overall: 2/5 (it would have been 1/5, but inclusion of The Rock automatically doubles any score).

I thought it was him, he looks much thinner and better in Be Cool than Scorpion King / that desert thing. He was superb however, very, very, very good performance.
I agree with everything else said here btw, not that good a film.

Well, watched it last night have have to agree with comments here. Very average and glad I only paid half price. The Rock was indeed very good 
BTW, anyone know what that red convertable was that Uma Thurman was driving? Looked lovely (as did she
