wileECoyote Posted June 21, 2013 Share Posted June 21, 2013 Just got back from an early showing of "The Lone Ranger". If I had to describe the movie in one word, it would be "Predictable". You can guess the plot right at the start and set your watch based on when major scenes will occur. Johnny Depp is basically redoing Jack Sparrow and gets really irritating sometimes.Didn't seem to be a huge crowd at the multiplex today, guess the finals did take their toll.After watching it, I really think their release date is wrong. DM2 is going to take the family audience away, and I personally liked "White House Down" a lot better than this one, so I hope it does well.Thanks for the quick review. I've been looking forward for this for a while hopefully I'll like it better than you . I'm going to a screening myself in Monday. Can't wait!

DAR Posted June 21, 2013 Share Posted June 21, 2013 The crowd seemed to like it. Crowds at advance screenings are the most enthusiastic you can get. Let me put it this way "Olympus has fallen", "Now you see me", "Man of Steel" and "White House Down" got applause when the movie ended - this one didn't. Again, it is not a bad movie, it is just a very by-the-numbers movie. Not bad, not great either. Due to Depp, it will probably do well overseas. EDIT: Best comparison movie I can think for this one is "Green Hornet" - the tone of both movies is pretty much the same.Oh no. Green Hornet was turrible 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jandrew Posted June 21, 2013 Share Posted June 21, 2013 Whoa...what happened to the themes? Also, my friend said that Tuesdays game was the most watched "non clinching game" ever, so yeah the game had a big effect, and im sure this one was just as watched, so prepare for a harsh Thursday. Friday should be solid though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grim22 Posted June 21, 2013 Share Posted June 21, 2013 Is the 2.5 hour runtime listed on IMDB legit? Yup, it was long. I would say 2:20 or thereabouts. There is a stretch in the middle where it is exposition and scenes where nothing happens plotwise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AdamKendall Posted June 21, 2013 Share Posted June 21, 2013 Yeah, this is going to be a bad day for box office ... this game is going to do WAY over 25 million viewers. Intense stuff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jandrew Posted June 21, 2013 Share Posted June 21, 2013 LOL I didn't know that was Jandrew. Lebron was just fabulous tonight.Haha I dont hate him. Hes one of the best, hence one reason why its fun to make fun of him, plus the bandwagons fans are a reason. Hes MVP, but you gotta call him MVF too its only fair haha. He spends alot of time going airbourne (horizontally). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
