Thunder Force

Stupid movie. Yup. Predictable and nothing new here. This movie has been made about 30 times but hey.. there's a few chuckles and it kills some time.

If you go into this thinking your gonna be surprised or impressed. You're gonna hate it. I say, lighten up and have some fun. Because that's all this silly film is. Fun and empty calories.

I really wanted to like this after seeing the two stars beings interviewed.

Its starts off well.

It has an interesting premise.

Most of the jokes fall flat - McCarthy is just not funny, mostly, in this.

What starts out as reasonably original soon transcends into "seen something very similar to this before, I know whats going to happen next" territory, which would be fine if most of the jokes landed. They don't.

Special effects are pretty good.

Around the halfway point I realised it wasn't going to go anywhere and I started to get bored.

For me, the big saving grace and the reason for my 5 star rating is Jason Bateman. He is fantastic in this and funny - love scenes with McCarthy aside (I didn't get the "jokes").

If I had paid anything to see this I would have felt short changed.

I had high hopes for thunder force, but the reviews don't lie... it's unfunny and lacks chemistry. I only laughed a handful of times and even those were half hearted. The script was bland and the storyline predictable. I couldn't tell if it was serious or a spoof and either way it didn't work.

3 words that best describe this movie are: bland, predictable and unnecessary. I really don't get it. To build this kind of film it costs millions of dollars and how no one saw that this isn't hit just a flop. They had great cast, acting was really on point but plot is just terrible. Nothing unique in this movie, no jokes, comedy is in such a low level. Imdb have put this film in most waited spring movies and I believed in that. Now I'm just disappointed and angry. I wouldn't recommend to watch this film because it doesn't worth your time.

This was like a blah Disney movie but with curse words and sexual innuendos so I'm confused as to who the target audience is. Melissa McCarthy's (whom I love) husband wrote and directed the movie and once again he just doesn't have what it takes. All of his films have been stinkers. I also love Octavia Spencer but she isn't a comedic actress so her performance fell very flat for me. Overall, I'd say skip it. It was boring and brought nothing at all original to the table.
