    BURN HIM!!!!!

    I'll never be able to respect myself now that I've seen my review translated to Jarjar.

    When-a you-sa THINKIN' wee-sa in trouble?




    Reviewa By: Mace Windu Lazarevic

    Every now an' then film comes along that able to unite mankind in veil of universal hatra. Strange no it that the same rarely say of films that Gungans actually like, but some films so bombad that even the most popcorn addicta cinema goer bored to tears by it. The last time this happena was with Obi-Wan Travolta's Battlefield Earth the film that has found easy spot at the top of my maxi-bad movies list, but now film has come to try an' usurp that throne. This film The Core film that makes Armageddon look like Shakespeare's pet project, an' goes to great lengths to show it's audience how dumb it truly .

    Now Mee-sa don-nuh want to go into too much depth about the films she-a stupidity because Mee-sa can accept that this type of movie no about intelligence, it's just that the argument for switch'in your brain off just doesn't work in this particular film. Switch your brain off in Armageddon and it suddenly becomes film about meteor that's gonna strike the earth, but switch your brain off for The Core an' it remains film about bunch of astronauts, sorry terranauts, drill'in there way through solid rock an' molten lava in ord-a to jump start the planet. Mee-sa've heard the film mak-as say that the idea's for the effects of The Core stopp'in were brought to them by scientists, but of course they gonna say that. Howev-a let's assume that the original concept plausible for second shall wee-sa. Then the idea still so complex that with your brain off it seems to far fetcha, mean'in that you-sa have to switch your brain back on again, an' oh look they're gonna try an' jump start planet using few maxi-boom-a bombs while spotty teenag-a hacks the entire internet in few minutes.

    Anyway Mee-sa can already hear the grumbles at the back about how the film no about intelligence so Mee-sa'll explain how it doesn't work on pure bang for your buck level eith-a. Every popular popcorn movies have 2 basic ingredients that essential to their success. They okiday humour an' impressive explosions, 2 things which The Core severely lack'in in. Again Mee-sa'm gonna be using Armageddon as the template because that was the film that The Core was try'in so hard to emulate. Armageddon had Bruce Willis, Jabba Buscemi an' Owen Skywalk-a who all brilliant at pull'in off action movie wisecracks. In fact Mee-sa'd even go so far as say that Mee-sa've yet to see Buscemi in film where he hasn't made mee-sa laugh, yet what does The Core off-a? Hilary Swank, Aaron Eckhart, Bruce Greenwood, Delroy Lindo, DJ Qualls, Owen Tucci. few well respecta actors there, but none of them display any of the comic tim'in needa to pull off successful popcorn movie. In fact their act'in was bombad throughout an' while the act'in no quite as low as that found in Battlefield Earth it does manage to come clos-a than any oth-a mainstream movie in recent memory.

    Sadly the film also lack'in the most important ingredient, because the effects were on the whole unimpressive. Films like this supposa to blow the audience away with amaz'in special effects an' ever grow'in action set pieces, but the action in The Core just keeps gett'in bitty-small an' bitty-small. It starts off with few potentially great action scenes involv'in chaos in major cities like Moisture Farm, but these scenes inevitably involve mynok attacks or electrical surges an' wee-sa don-nuh even get to see city destroya until quite late into the film. In fact the action scene Mee-sa'm gonna complain about the most well known scene due to recent events. In the film there scene where space shuttle "crashes." In this film though they couldn't even show us that because the pilots on the shuttle were main charact-as. What happens instead draws the film down into one of it's low-a points. On realiz'in that they're off course the shuttle pilot flies over to the L.A riv-a an' proceeds to navigate between the bridges before everyone walks away safe. Mee-sa don-nuh even understand why they needa the riv-a because you-sa can apparently drive rocket like Ferrari anyway, so they could have just swerva in an' out of traffic until they stoppa. Aft-a that the film plods along with the occasional action scene that only shows the briefest glimpses of destruction until explain'in that the effects were much maxi-big than the little wee-sa saw.

    It's real shame that the writ-as chose to do the film in this way because the audience, includ'in myself, was only there for one reason an' that reason had noth'in to do with watch'in everyone walk away safe. disast-a movie should eith-a be very maxi-big movie with lot of destruction, or it should be more carefully thought out movie that shows the disast-a on few well developa charact-as. film like The Core that has less intelligence than Armageddon an' less impressive action than Deep Impact just should not be made. This Hollywood prov'in that they don-nuh take the audience's intelligence into consideration as long as they make money, an' if this film success then it truly Yoda the Forev-a-Sleep of mainstream movies.
