There
isn't really much I can say about this big mess of a movie except that it looks
pretty good. I'd like to say cheers to the Art Director but unfortunately, great
art direction does not a good movie make.
Ralph
Fiennes and Uma Thurman are British agents who take on bad guy Sean Connery in
this new film based on the old TV series of the same name.
Not
much of this disjointed action film makes any real sense, and this makes The Avengers
very tedious to sit through. That probably explains why Warner Brothers didn't
allow press screenings of this would- be blockbuster.
Jeremiah
Chechik, who directed Christmas Vacation, seems an unlikely choice to direct a
movie of this scope. How he got this job is beyond me. Why Connery, Fiennes, and
Thurman chose this project is painfully obvious. Big paychecks! The Avengers is
a forgettable movie experience!
