Will pass because of Jesse Eisenberg and Tracy Morgan


I will not watch this movie simply because Jesse Eisenberg and Tracy Morgan. Seriously? putting the two most annoying "comedians" in one movie? It couldn't get any worst than that.

I was actually pleasantly surprised about TM in this. He is not over the top and does a more serious role. I'm a huge fan of JE so can't complain there're.

Jesse Eisenberg isn't really a "comedian", sure he's worked on some comedy films but he's also done some serious roles as well. I also agree, Tracy Morgan was a bit more serious in this role and he wasn't spitting all over the place every time he spoke.

Tracy Morgan carries the comedy in this movie. He is a bit more serious than what he usually plays but he is still pretty outrageous in the scheme of things. It is nothing special but certainly worth a watch.

They are actually both bearable in this. JE kind of grew on me and the scene where they are at the bar drinking tequila just talking..was calm and normal but powerful. But i understand you not watching it because of some actors haha Ihave yet to see a brad pitt film.

reply

You seriously haven't watched a movie with Brad Pitt in it?

reply

i tried but just can't stand him.

reply

Well, you aren't missing out on much. The only movie I have ever liked with him in it is Cutting Class. I only liked it because I thought he was hot back then.

What about Inglorious Bastards? I realize people either like Tarantino's style or they don't, I do. I loved IB. I can't imagine missing it because of one actor who really didn't have much screen time. Then there's Thelma and Louise...

reply

I have and wish I hadn't. I don't understand the hype around Pitt or Clooney.

Regarding the OP, I don't recognize Eisenberg (name doesn't ring a bell) and I tend to avoid Morgan as well. I'll give this a shot but I'm not holding out much hope.

The only reason I'm watching this movie is because of Jesse Eisenberg. Tracy Morgan annoys me but JE will make it bearable.

They were good in it. I thought the film as a whole was decent.

I count six shots.
I count two guns!

Yet you took the time to tell us that you wouldn't watch a film with these two people in it. Weird. And Jesse Eisenberg
is not a comedian - he is an actor. A very good actor - his work in ROGER DODGER, SQUID & THE WHALE and SOCIAL NETWORK is outstanding. To each his own.
