Crap, I took one look at this movie and also thought, "How could Han Solo and James Bond fighting aliens as cowboys possibly be boring?" I'm a little disappointed to learn they found a way.

But, eh, they can't all be great. At least we've got three really good superhero movies to comfort us.

Honestly, I didn't have any expectations. Sure it had Harrison Ford, but the trailers have been very 'meh'.

Shame. I was really looking forward this one, considering it's James Bond and Indiana Jones fighting aliens while riding horses.

I remember reading this as a graphic novel and thinking it was pretty boring. I guess making it into a movie didnt improve it.

Ah what a shame and I had high hopes for it.

I'll just skip this and wait for the eventual Netflix release.

Hmm, I'll give it a look-see. In my experience, if MovieBob says it's "not bad", it usually has some kind of redeeming value.

But whether I like it or not I'll leave up to the movie to decide...

What the hell, how have I not heard of Attack the Block?

Well, anyways, I guess I'll go see this movie anyway, I mean, it's got Harrison Ford and Daniel Craig in it. How bad can it be?

Hm, I was kinda on the edge about this one. James Bond Daniel Craig & Indy Harrison Ford are awesome, but it didn't look that amazing.

It's looking like a renter now, thanks for the review.

I blame the film's writers for this.
Also, I REALLY wish I could see Attack the Block, but I don't think it's ever coming to Mexico.
Because I know that if it is, it will probably be a year from now. Trust me, it's happened.

I'm torn. On the one hand, it sounds like a bit of a snooze. On the other hand, two hours of Daniel Craig in chaps.

Hmmm....

When it stops being considered surprising movies involving the Old West are usually gonna suck, perhaps the sucky ones will stop being made. As it stands, the fact that people are age get so excited about concepts like these, that do sound like a hell of a lot of fun mind you, is way too easy to exploit. You can bet that as long as people keep going to the movies with titles this cheesy, they will just keep shoveling them out at this quality.

What's Movie Bob's deal with the cloverfield monster, I thought it was awesome simply because it had nothing of what earth creatures would call normal. If he didn't like that he is wrong (I know I'm saying he has his own opinion, I have mine and mine is better but it's true).

I'm in the same boat but replace Craig with Wilde. Perhaps just see the movie for the eye candy and call it a day?

This was the first movie in a while that I was actually looking forward to. Cowboys Indiana Jones and James Bond fighting aliens is boring? They must have tried to screw this one up.

Simply put: I don't care and I'm seeing it anyway.
This, many times this. I imagine that Bob isn't much of a western fan anyways, so he wouldn't feel as much of the magic as a devotee would .
