What happened, Mr. John McTiernan?
Has he completely lost it? The director went from fantastic action pictures such as Predator and
Die Hard to unredeemable pieces of shit like
The 13th Warrior and The Thomas Crown Affair.
Whoever thought Rene Russo was sexy or something along the lines must be out of his mind. Being the kind of person who
should've stayed in Tennessee, she's ugly with a square-jawed face. I once caught the marathon episode of sexy movie moments
on TV, and The Thomas Crown Affair was one of them. Uh...no. Either the voters hadn't experienced much in life or needed
to get out more often.
If anything, it's a boring clunker with a terrible cast and an even worse screenplay. I can't believe the bullshit that's
put forth before me. Of course, Rene Russo was going to proceed to destroy the movie with her zero sex appeal. How can anyone
think she's a credible actress? On the other hand, Pierce Brosnan is okay. It's just that he needed the right actress to make
the film work, but his James Bond persona definitely has to go. Strangely, Denis Leary manages to stink up the joint with
his constant negative attitude. Get rid of him already.
All in all, RIP John McTiernan.
