Mexican

Pros: Brad Pitt and Julia Roberts
Cons: Pitt and Roberts didn't have enough scenes together.

The Mexican was the first movie to star Brad Pitt and Julia Roberts together. They were also in Oc ean's 11 together. Pitt and Roberts were great in the movie, and very believable in their roles. They just ...

Pros: umm…Gandolfini?
Cons: no character development, story is all over the place

I am a major Julia Roberts fan and have probably seen almost every movie that she has been in. On the other hand, I don’t really care for Brad Pitt, so it did take me awhile to actually see this movie. Finally, about a year ago, a ...

Pros: Gandolfini's surprisingly wonderful character.
Cons: I couldn't possibly begin.

As Gore Verbinski’s remake/rework/redo ‘The Ring’ is quickly making its way toward becoming the next ‘The Blair Witch Project’ (everyone seems to love it and think it is just so ‘creepy’ right now, but in two years you...

Pros: A good romantic/adventure movie.
Cons: Storylines just left hanging.

First I have to admit I had heard that this was a really good movie. Second, it is suppose to rain all weekend here in my home state of Texas. So I figured what better way to spend a really rainy weekend watching movies that friends have recommended....

Pros: Great cast, unique story
Cons: Some things left open, some bad dialogue

The Mexican is a great dark suspenseful comedy. It stars Brad Pitt, Julia Roberts, and James Gandolfini. Through a series of bad luck, Pitt ends up being involved with some crime people who send him to Mexico to retrieve a very valuable pistol called...

Pros: Pitt's pretty damn funny in this gorgeous-looking comedy...
Cons: ...that loses a LOT of steam toward the end. And where was the editor?

Here's my question: If you're going to make a romantic pair of the two biggest movie stars on the planet...why have them appear in only two scenes together? (And while we're at it, let's make the title as generic and meaningless as...

Pros: James Gandolfini
Cons: I'd almost prefer the real Montezuma's revenge

If you ever wanted to see Julia Roberts and Brad Pitt in a movie together badly, you just got your wish. They get the dubious top billing in "The Mexican," and boy, is this movie bad. On top of that, of the two hours this movie runs, Roberts and Pitt are...

Pros: An entertaining movie that is not exceptionally good, nor is it exceptionally bad.
Cons: May prove boring for some.

Those who have seen this movie will I think agree with me that if this movie featured lesser known actors other than Julia Roberts and Brad Pitt no way would this movie be listed among the top ten or for that matter the top fifty box office draws. The...

Pros: None
Cons: I feel that this movie was a huge Flop.

I love watching movies with Julia Roberts in them. I was really anxious to go see Mexican because usually Julia Roberts gets pretty good roles and the movies are usually great. I am not normally bored with her acting.

I decided to wait until...

Pros: --
Cons: --

Hype is a funny thing. On one hand, hype gets moviegoers out to see little known films like Memento and everyone who does is better for seeing a movie that is about something and doesn’t have bodily fluids or some reject from SNL (anyone...

Pros: Great trio of acting.
Cons: Dismally boring and repetitive.

Pros: Brad Pitt, Julia Roberts, James Gandolfini, extremely funny, well-done
Cons: Left one question unanswered, but you might know the answer

How many times have all of us complained that the trailer of a movie either a) gave away everything, or b) was funnier than the film? Well, I've done both. And I'm happy to report that the film of The Mexican is just as funny as the trailer, and...

Pros: Potentially interesting story. Pretty stars. Pretty locations.
Cons: Doesn't live up to potential. Even pretty can be boring after two hours.

When I first saw the title and trailers for "The Mexican" I thought, "gee! neither Brad Pitt nor Julia Roberts seems very Mexican." I was right, as it turns out. The Meican doesn't refer to any of the characters in the film. It refers, instead, to a gun...

Pros: James Gandalfini and J. K. Simmons don't embarass themselves.
Cons: Everybody else does.

You know a film is in trouble when you just want to punch out the two lead characters. In any film, ...

Pros: A really good story
Cons: Doesn't give a good picture of Mexico

THE MILLION DOLLAR QUESTION.................................

Okay, answer this question. If two people are really in love and they just can't get their 'stuff' together, when do they get to the point where enough is enough? That is the...
