Review of Paycheck (2003) by Ben S — 11 Aug 2010
Enjoyable enough, although there's some really terribly cheesy moments. John Woo, while a master of action, sucks at romantic stuff. Just sucks at it. And it shows here.
But you don't watch a Woo film for the romance, or the acting (Uma is especially bad in this). you watch it for the gunfights and the debris flying everywhere in slow motion and the explosions and doves (all of which this movie has).
It's a silly movie and one of Woo's more forgettable ones, but it's serves as a turn the brain off for two hours entertainment.
