... and what a twist it will be.

Its funny how they are trying to disguise who directed this movie. His name alone used to be a selling point.

Unsurprisingly, it's apparently not very good. I have a friend who saw it last night and said it was disappointing. Reviews are all "meh" as far as I've seen.

Those are pretty easy to smell these days.

The mystery here is Will Smith and Sony: Why did they partner up with him on a big budget "Summer Blockbuster" knowing his recent past?

I was interested til I saw m night shamalamadingdong was involved.

I'm sticking with this theory.

I don't know...it might do ok with family audiences and tweens. Jadens Karate Kid movie was pretty well liked.

He must be sitting on seriously damning photos of top Hollywood execs.

One good movie, one so-so movie, and years of shit afterward, and he's still going.

Maybe Dane could explain that one to me.

International grosses. MIB 3 was a disappointment here in the US (178 million), but it grossed $454 million internationally. Sony is banking on a larger international gross to make up for a lackluster US performance. Studios do not talk much about international grosses, or the fact that the international markets have increased greatly in the last 15-20 years. A movie can bomb in the states, and still be able to break-even based on a strong international gross. (The Golden Compass from five/six years ago is a prime example, it bombed in the US, making only 70 million, but made over 300 million overseas, which helped make up for the 180 million spent to make it.)

12% on rotten tomatoes

lol

It wasn't BAD... It just wasn't good. Jaden got the vast majority of screen time so I'm sure this is just Will's way of easing Jaden into big roles in big films.

I had a feeling that would happen.

I heard this movie sucked out loud. But that is no surprise with M. Night Shamalamadingdong and Will Smith's talentless son.
