Am I The Only One Let Down?
first let me preface this by saying: I'm a HUGE Joe Dante fan. I love Gremlins 1 and 2 (I'm one of the few that actually enjoys 2 slightly more than the first. heres to hoping Hollywood greenlights a Gremlins 3 instead of remaking the first one), Innerspace, Small Soldiers, Matinee, The 'burbs, Explorers, I mean the man has directed some killer movies in his time
so trust me, it pains me to say this, but I just found The Hole bland as whitebread.
bland story, bland acting (except the little guy, he did fine and I loved him in The Mist) bland effects, bland all across the board. I saw it in 2D and I dunno HOW they're gunna turn this into 3D that feels watchable.
maybe I'm just such a fan of Dante's that I let myself down by expecting too much. or maybe I'm not the film's target audience so it doesnt matter what I think (even tho it felt like the movie itself didnt know what the target audience was)
sorry Joe. I hope Hollywood throws you some bigger money and stars next time so you can hit it out of the park.
so does anyone else agree? or am I the only one on this board that feels this way.
