This movie is god awful


I'm sorry i just had to share that with everybody. I'm sorry that Deniro was suckered in to this.

I don`t think it`s that bad. It has some funny stuff. I think the film Flawless is the worst Robert De Niro i have seen. I like the character Robert played.

This film should have been a lot funnier. It just seems to have been badly made and rushed despite the good casting.

I actually liked Flawless, but then again I've not revisited it since the first viewing. :)

see this could have been good if it stayed on track with the idea of them being on a show

i thought it was a good movie,a movie i could easily watch again, does not deserve to be as slated as it has been

reply

It wasn't that bad...something to watch when nothing else is on.

Why? Because it's fun? I bet you liked "Leaving Las Vegas", didn't you?

What's the use for one to gain the whole world, yet lose his soul?

Keep trolling stiffy, I agree with the positive outlooks on this film, I found it fairly enjoyable, it wasn't made to be a great movie. It was made to entertain audiences. I remember when I went to the theaters to watch it and was very pleased by it. Funny stuff.

I took a screenwriting class years ago, and we watched a video containing interviews with various screenwriters about how hard it was to make their way in the career.

This was the ONLY film the writer made into a screenplay and film.

DeNiro is certainly a great actor and everyone bows to him for it, but my God, for every good flick he does the man makes another couple terrible ones.
Run down through his credits and you will find a LOT of very bad movies.
Weird that he gets away with it. Several of his turds would probably have ended another man's career.

See this i dont understand i watch a comedy and i hated it and everyone else loves it, when i love one everyone hates it ... strange *beep*
I got the dvd and watched more then once and still puts a smile on my face several times, thats what makes good comedy right?
Who cares all actors made better stuff before, doesnt make it bad? It does what its supposed to do, thats more i can say of more then half of the "comedys" out there.

It's been years since I've seen it, but I remember it being on the premium channels a lot when I was younger (around 2003, when I was about 15 years old), and I caught it a few times. It's a very basic, at times bland buddy comedy, but I don't recall it being awful. In fact, I remember more-or-less enjoying it in a the same dumb way I liked most other buddy cop comedies. It was an average film from what I recall. Nothing to write home about but at the same time it also wasn't poor by any means. At least from what I remember.

And FURTHERMORE, this is my signature! SERIOUSLY! Did you think I was still talking about my point?

get that criticism outa here! i laugh every time at the end of the movie comedy outtakes when eddie is trying to say his lines and robert says "get that camera outa here!" i thought it was a good movie and watched it maybe 3 or 4 times now.

Maybe he doesn't answer to Chuck. Call him Charles. Charles!
