My only regret is that I couldn't be meaner.

Honestly, of all the movies for people to be coming out of the "it's not THAT bad" woodwork.

The trailer for this was completely charmless (even Quvenzhané Wallis looked totally unengaged). Yet your review makes it sound more charmless than I could've even imagined.

And I'm forced to ask about yet another remake: why not just make it its own thing if you're going to alter the source material to such an extent that you're likely to turn off anyone who might've been enticed by another filmed iteration of that particular story/property?

Simply The Bessed! (Old Lunch), Thursday, 18 December 2014 16:13 (nine years ago) link

Am guessing this version would never have happened without the Jay-Z "Hard Knock Life" breathing alleged life into the property.

It was nepotism on behalf of Willow Smith that kickstarted the whole thing. Then she got too old.

lol are you serious

Οὖτις, Thursday, 18 December 2014 16:45 (nine years ago) link

Yeah, wasn't it originally supposed to be Will and Willow? An After Earth present for his little girl?

what loving dad wouldn't arrange high-profile failure for both his kids?

Can't wait for the Pinkett-Smith Sophie's Choice.

a total idiot?

Οὖτις, Thursday, 18 December 2014 17:00 (nine years ago) link

oh lol didn't see the "wouldn't" there haha

that picture on the review just makes me continue weeping for Rose Byrne's career

Nhex, Thursday, 18 December 2014 17:05 (nine years ago) link

xpost But that's probably Will Smith's honest take. Given the money and the pull, only a total idiot would refrain from giving his beloved children their own vanity projects.

Simply The Bessed! (Old Lunch), Thursday, 18 December 2014 17:05 (nine years ago) link

his kids are already not gonna have to ever work a day in their lives, might as well get them career-focused early in life like he was (is my guess)

Nhex, Thursday, 18 December 2014 17:32 (nine years ago) link

Or go to school.

or experience linear time

Οὖτις, Thursday, 18 December 2014 21:00 (nine years ago) link

has Willow Smith been in any movies? I just skimmed that interview a few weeks ago where she and her brother sounded like herbal teabags in corporeal form.
