You can tell that Samuel L Jackson is not committed to his role at all


His body language and performance are just like "yeah, whatever, this movie is probably garbage"

Whereas Cusack seems to be overacting to compensate for how crap the film is.

Due to the lack of moderators, trolls can ruin the IMDB message boards. Don't feed them.

I thought SLJ was sleepwalking thru this too. Shame, Tom in the book was so much more engaging.

Cusack is Exec Producer, so that's probably why he is actually trying in this movie. Not enough to lift it unfortunately.

Reportedly, Cusack and Jackson refused to talk to each other during the whole time of the shoot.

Why?

reply

Dunno. They just don't get along or don't like each other or had a falling out.
Not making this up. Someone, who'll remain unnamed, who worked on the film told me this.
