Zakiyyah6 Posted September 3, 2018 Share Posted September 3, 2018 I like Garner but the film looks bad and now I hope WB has the top 3 movies of next weekend because that would be a neat feat. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Frozen Posted September 3, 2018 Share Posted September 3, 2018 I’ve seen the trailer a bunch of times before movies these past few months. I think it’s been edited recently. Now it seems to be more about her going after bad cops and judges and less about her going after Mexican bad guys and being a white hero to the poor Mexicans. But it still looks terrible. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gamera Posted September 3, 2018 Share Posted September 3, 2018 Agree the title is awful, but it looks like it would pass the time decently enough. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Napoleon Posted September 6, 2018 Share Posted September 6, 2018 First reviews are up. 9 rotten, 2 fresh (18%) https://www.rottentomatoes.com/m/peppermint_2018/reviews/?sort=rotten "This should be a lesson to the critics who trashed Bruce Willis' Death Wish remake, because that is an absolute masterpiece compared to this garbage." 1 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

filmlover Posted September 6, 2018 Share Posted September 6, 2018 Jennifer Garner deserves so much better than the schlock she's been getting for years. At least her one good role recently was in an important movie (playing mom to the first gay teenage protagonist in a Hollywood film). 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

filmlover Posted September 6, 2018 Share Posted September 6, 2018 Just now, Alli said: Why? She has not proven herself. Not many actresses/actors make the successful transition from tv to movie star She has shown she can act on multiple occasions (Juno, Dallas Buyers Club). And should've gotten a Golden Globe nom for 13 Going on 30. She certainly deserves better than dreck like this and Nine Lives (lol that movie's existence in 2018 might be even more bizarre than when it came out two years ago). 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alli Posted September 6, 2018 Share Posted September 6, 2018 A good supporting role here and there does not a career make. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nova Posted September 6, 2018 Share Posted September 6, 2018 (edited) I think Jennifer Garner could own the role in a action franchise ala Alias Based on reviews this movie obviously wasn't it and I think the biggest problem is that maybe Garner was eager to jump back into the action role without actually waiting for the right role/script but I don't think she "deserves," anything. Could she do better than this movie? 100% yes but Garner isn't some starving actor who needed to take on this role. She could have been more patient and waited for the correct role.

TombRaider Posted September 7, 2018 Share Posted September 7, 2018 should have gone straight to netflix or vod. garner's popularity faded in the mid 00s 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dudalb Posted September 7, 2018 Share Posted September 7, 2018 (edited) From the reviews is does not even work as a revenge action thriller. Looks more like a female version of the "Punisher" more then a "Death Wish" clone, though since she is trying to take down a whole massive crime syndicate, rather then a rew random street criminals. I like Jennifer Garner, but this was not a good move for her. Edited September 7, 2018 by dudalb Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ryan Reynolds Posted September 9, 2018 Share Posted September 9, 2018 this looks pretty bad, not even a decent action watch like Colombiana Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
