Conspiração Explosiva

Now that the "truth" has been revealed regarding Mr. Willis and his condition, according to most reporting he had no idea where he was or why he was in the films that he was in after 2020, giving lines fed to him like a parrot through a mic and not understanding what he was saying or why he was.

In other words, Bruce is "in" this film but he has no idea he was. And the producers and other actors plainly could see what was happening for themselves, they just mostly said nothing.

It's a sad end to a brilliant career, and screams "exploitation" to me. Bruce deserves better.

Yeah, what everyone says about Bruce Willis is true. He's barely in it and he just mumbles answers to Luke Wilson basically. Serves no purpose other than to say Bruce Willis was in this. The last few years this is the type of movie he does. Low budget, bad script that he's in only for a couple days work and a big pay day. What a terrible way to end a once great career.

But make no mistake, Luke Wilson was only in this for a pay day as well. He's incredibly one-dimensional and boring. Just gets tiresome watching him be the bad cop and spew the annoying lines he's given here.

But then you're left with the lead actor, who can't carry a movie. I don't know him, I didn't like him and I don't care what happens to him. He's trying to solve the crime he's being accused of but it's a hard watch. It's a seriously boring and cliched script. You wonder where they got the money for Wilson and Willis to be in this?

How does this get made. I made it 45 minutes in and had to stop, I was so bored. But 45 minutes in this travesty should get me some sort of award.

Bruce Willis has been diagnosed with aphasia. It's a disorder that affects your speech. So it's not just because he's old or just phoning it in. It's sad how many people are so cruel and judgmental before considering their words first. He's made some incredible films and not so long ago. Red, for instance. He was great in that one. And obviously the man is a legend for Die Hard, alone. Let's give him his props. This movie isn't his fault. I mean, he was hardly in it anyway. I was actually excited to see Devon Sawa. I'm glad I'm seeing him more these days. I hope he gets some more and better projects in the future. He's a good actor. Better than Luke Wilson,, just my opinion. This film could have been better. So that's always a disappointment. But keep in mind, it has a great audience score. You might enjoy it. I'm definitely not mad I watched and it certainly wasn't a waste of time.

No one here seems to know about his cognitive decline and are bashing a man who is suffering from a severe illness, everyone telling him to retire and that he's a horrible actor or his lines are wooden should maybe just look up his name before bashing it. He IS retired and he has had a condition that causes his speech and thought to not function properly the way his brain attempts to convey it. Have some sympathy, I don't care how bad the movie is you shouldn't only point out the one actor who's barely in it and is actually suffering. If it was his fault he wouldn't be in the movie and the other crew should've known better than to use him in his condition.

Same old recipe. Put Bruce Willis on the poster. Tickets get sold. Producers happy. Bruce Willis happy. Audience NOT happy! Why not? Because Bruce is only starring in this movie for less than 15 minutes in total. Like in all of his B-movies in the last years.

Bruce Willis has gotten a tummy lately and he almost seems drugged by something, because he is mumbling in such a catatonic, wooden way. His wooden appearance (mumbling, no expression) seems to get worse with age. He really looks old now and fatigued. Better retire Bruce, but I guess he has got some kind of suffocating contract that obliges him to keep turning out 5 movies a year.

Not any good then? The supporting actors in this movie are actually better than Bruce Willis' acting performance. Luke Wilson is even starring in it! He is a funny fella! Although in this movie he is acting seriously. But his performance is allright.

More "good": The photography is quite decent. The editing is as well. The story aint ridiculous. That's a plus. It's not really thrilling, although it aint terrible either.

From all the crap Bruce has been churning out lately, this is one of the not so terrible movies... NOT recommended though ofcourse...

B R U C E

At an (excrucially) important sidenote, let us not forget WHY we are watching Bruce Willis movies to begin with. We watch Bruce Willis movies because of DIE HARD (1988). THE ONE AND ONLY BIGGEST ACTION AMERICAN ACTION CLASSIC OF THE CENTURY.

This classic is still standing strong after more than 30 years. Millions of people still REwatch it during every Christmas holiday. Recently a petition was launched to rename Nakatomi Plaza into DIE HARD plaza.

A life time achievement award for Bruce Willis is in the making as well, so I have heard...

DIE HARD (1988) NEVER DIES but is still ALIVE AND KICKING in 2022. Let's celebrate that!
