Laws for misleading movies
Isnt there a law for movies that mislead people to watch their film?? if there is none, i think there should be a law for decieving viewers.
shareThere Are laws against misrepresentation but they usually have to be proven true in court. One could sue distributer of "looking for Jackie" for advertising product incorrectly. If judge grants his blessing then best you can hope is that distributor will have to revise packaging or sales ad. In such case best you can hope for is a refund since no damage to health wasmade.
shareah cmon... sure jackie is not all that much in it, yet what you wasted? 5$ if you didn't like the movie... I did enjoy it to a degree, surely not what i was expecting, yet it was correct, i saw some movie where i was bored to death and found them stupid, and yet i would not sue them... Its common thing in movies to use big name to get audience. At least in this, the even said at the beginning special guest star Jackie Chan... it says from the start he wont have a big role.
shareI got it in a British 99 pence store. At that price I can't really complain.
This isn't the first time a film has been misleadingly titled though. Chinese cinema (and even many Jackie Chan films) do it all the time! How many people have been mislead into watching Rumble in Hong Kong thinking it had something to do with Rumble in the Bronx? How many people asked for the DVD of Snakes on a Plane for their birthday and got Snakes on a Train instead?
