Pais muito loucos

Putting Politics aside, the movie is just horrible in every way, no sense at all, bad script, bad acting, bad jokes. High budget actors doesn't make a great movie, sorry.

This movie had funny parts. It's not near as bad as many in the other reviews claim. Alec Baldwin is, Alec Baldwin and I found Salma to be quite humorous. The title is not very fitting for this movie. Overall, I'm glad I watched it but I won't be in a hurry to rewatch it either. Do what you want with this. Also, I'd like to note, this is not a movie for those who are easily offended.

Funny and silly, I forgot the stress of the real world for the duration of the movie. Sure, it won't win Oscars but sometimes you need a distraction that doesn't require you to think too deeply.

As a screenwriter myself I know how difficult it is to get anything produced let alone a movie. It is all the more mystifying then that something as awful as this ever saw the light of day. What is even more of a mystery is how two actors of Alec Baldwin and Salma Hayek's stature were persuaded to sign up for it in the first place. I can only guess at their motives but I suspect they were doing it as a favour to the director or one of the producers. If not, both should sack their agents immediately.

The leads do their best to navigate their way through what is a painfully unfunny script but, ultimately, this will probably go down as the low point of their careers. It's a real shame as Baldwin in particular has turned in some great performances over the years - his cameo in Glengarry Glen Ross being one of my personal favourites. He and Hayek will no doubt bounce back from this but the director and co-writer, Fred Wolf - a former stand-up, unbelievably - may struggle to put this stinker behind him.

Relax everyone, it isn't bad as stated by folks. The writing is a bit rusty sure but the actors strength held it together. Baldwins funny phone answers differ each time and are really funny and Selma's character uses patchy english pronounciations in her character which are hilarious at times! I thought they were both funny. Back to the writing though, poor flow but they kept reinforcing how much the 2 loved each other and they showed that sticking together and taking the days one at a time is the best way to champion adversity. Cameos by Wil Ferrell and Colin Quinn are unexpected and corny funny in a way that fits their reputations. The movie is a heartwarmer. I frankly am a bit tired of perfect movies and this one was good enough to keep me watching and yeah, I groaned a bit, scratched my head on some weird and odd scripts but, one day, I will watch this again.
