Better than “The Waterboy”
I got to see the same sneak preview movie at the theatre last week.With all the TV advertising and trailers at the movies I thought the film was coming out soon, but I just checked and they said it won’t hit the Cineplex until May 27th!
Prediction? It will the box office winner on Memorial Day weekend. Perfect time to come out with a football picture because all the NFL fans are fed up with Arena football and thirsty for any real football.
Well, what can I say about the movie? Loved it! Very entertaining. You could get into the characters, no matter how despicable they were and you were rooting for them. Of course the story is an old one. They filmed it in 1974 with Burt Reynolds and it is about prisoners playing a football game against the guards. It’s a comedy, but boy it is Violent with a capital V.
It is a real macho man movie and everyone is going to love it. Adam Sandler gets beat up or beat down a lot in the movie, they give the best lines and jokes to Chris Rock and there will be a few other Saturday Night Live people you will recognize in it. There are a lot of scenes of cheap shots and unsportsmanlike conduct. Very physical, very brutal. Some scenes will make you cringe. You will feel their pain. Not blood and guts with stabbings or shootings, but extreme football hurts and hits.
Yes it’s a comedy and yes it’s funny, but also ultra violent, did I mention that already? Now I know why I gave up on football in high school and focused more on Cross Country and Track & Field…because I realized I would live longer if I competed in a sport where no one is trying to injury me or knock you out of competition.
A great film? No, but people will feel they got their money’s worth and yes, it will be popular on DVD with outtakes and behind the scenes footage. I can’t see it getting a PG-13 rating, not with all the language and use of the “N” word by the cookie cutter, steroid popping sadistic guards.
it’s trade-off: less character development, more laughs
I went to this film thinking it was going to suck. I was a big fan of the original. Loved it as a kid, although I know it’s not a great film or anything.I was surprised at how fun the remake was, although it is a superficial kind of fun. The original had better casting and stronger character development. Reynolds and Eddie Albert are so wonderful in their roles, Sandler and the new warden are pretty damn lame in comparison. And the original spent more time building the characters, so that by the end, the film really resonated in a way the remake does not.
BUT, the remake is a fun & energetic piece of pop entertainment. It goes much more for broad comedy and pretty much succeeds. It’s not super- hilarious, but it’s funny enough and much funnier than the original. Although Sandler is wrong for the part, he’s likable enough. Chris Rock is funny, as are some of the others. And the overall brisk pace keeps the whole thing afloat.
Yes, it’s a disposable movie. It lacks the dark undercurrents that made the first one so good. It even seems to self-consciously acknowledge that it will never stand outside the shadow of Burt Reynolds. No, it doesn’t have as much substance, but it has its own childish charm.
