The Dilemma

Ceetar Sep 23 2010 10:21 PM

Vince Vaughn/Ronny finds out best bud and co-partner in an automotive design company Kevin James'/Nick's wife is cheating on him. The Dilemma is whether or not Ronny should tell Nick or if it would distract from completing the project that could get their company on the map so to speak. Various hijinks ensue, etc. Also with Jennifer connelly, Winona Ryder, Channing Tatum and Queen Latifah. It's pretty much your typically Vaughn/James dramedy (for lack of a better word). which means it was certainly funny and entertaining, but wasn't exactly pushing the boundaries of new ground. Directed by Ron Howard. I didn't make this a poll, since the movie is not out until January. I got a random email/invite to a prescreening on Tuesday so we went out and saw it. We saw Taking Woodstock this way as well. Filled out a survey afterwards, so who knows, maybe they'll change things based on our input. The movie was mostly done, we did notice a couple of places where you could tell the audio/coloring wasn't quite up to snuff. And this is the first time i've ever seen a watermark (gettyimages) on a movie background scene. (they were on a train in Chicago)

I did that once --- the test audience thingie. I wrote and and wrote and wrote and wrote. The survey form was filled and I turned it over and wrote in the margins. We were was the last guys in the theater and my brother was pissed at me. He said the movie's representatives in the back of the theater were getting depressed watching me, but not everything I wrote was bad. Anyhow, the film was worse by the time it came out to general release.
