I agree wholeheartedly with Flibster even down to the avoiding of Steve Carrell who was brilliant in this movie. Scenes were drawn out, characters were boring or just plain stereotypes and the concept dull. It's just another indie that was blown out of all proportions like Juno and no doubt Adventureland (which from the 20 minutes I've seen sucks ass).

Mr Deeds.
Love the Spanish butler Emilio (verrrry verrrrry sneaky) and Cecil. Steve Buscemi always freaks me out though. |

Indian Jones - Kingdom of the Crystal Skull.
Is the writer an X-files fan or what, it got more absurd as it went on, the last 10 mins was nuts, it was more absurd than Tomb Raider 2 ! |

I agree that it got more and more ridiculous. If you could overlook the horrible stereotype of Mutt then the dialogue and 'piecing things together gradually' worked well. Unfortunately it started to venture into the unrealistic stunts arena as soon as the jungle chase began, and was just a downhill spiral from there. Far too much was revealed in terms of the supernatural/alien, and Ray Winstone barely needed to be there at all. If you go back and watch Raiders it was basically a Nazi-fighting treasure-hunting action adventure with a hint of the supernatural. This one basically says 'Have some fecking aliens then! And killer ants while we're at it.' Then they make a pie out of those words and throw it in your face.

Ray Winstone never needs to be in any film ever.
