Pros: Some funny scenes. It is an entertaining movie Cons: Not as good as it could have been. The plot wasn't that original.
After a few months of working some very long hours, I finally have some time off to do what I want to do again. I was able to go to the movies for the first time in months. There were a few other times when I could have gone before this, but at those...
Pros: Very very funny. Cons: One small bad political message from Hollywood...
I don’t really care for Robert De Niro. I can’t recall a single film he’s been in that has been even remotely entertaining. I know that he’s a good actor, but I just don’t like his style. I especially don’t care for his comedic roles, such as Paul...
Pros: Nice to see Eddie Murphy being funny onscreen! It's been a while. Cons: The movie's a mess.
If you found a restaurant that served an absolutely delicious Meatloaf & Mashed Potatoes Special, you’d probably find yourself somewhat forgiving of the eatery’s poor service and dingy interiors. The meal would prove so sinfully delicious that all other...
Pros: It's funny. So laugh. Bill Shatner and Kadeem Hardison sightings! Cons: Thin on plot. Eddie
I hadn't heard of Showtime until one of my roommates was raving about a trailer he saw with William Shatner playing himself trying to teach Robert DeNiro how to be a cop.
That was enough for me. TJ Hooker trying to teach DeNiro how to act....
Pros: Good performances from DeNiro and Murphy. Cons: Mediocre writing, unoriginal plot.
We all know what junk food is. Of course, that's a really silly way to begin a movie review. But consider what a piece of junk food is. We know that it's not nutritiously good yet we can't resist gobbling it down.
Pros: that gun is wickedl, De Niro is never bad Cons: close-up overdose; overall poorly shot film, terrible and nearly inexistant plot
The problem with Showtime is one I didn't anticipate. Hoping for a campy action comedy, I saw instead one of the best and least-lame action comedies of the last ten years (although that honestly isn't saying much, considering that the 90's have quite...
Pros: Eddie Murphy is funny. Cons: The movie really isn't.
I've learned not to expect too much from movies these days, and with Showtime I certainly wasn't disappointed. I don't mean to sound like an old fogey, but really great movies are becoming fewer and farther between.
Pros: A really cool gun, a couple of funny moments and decent action sequences.. Cons: ..but too many more pointless,dull, unfunny and wasted moments
What in the world has happened to Robert DeNiro. The great actor, he of Taxi Driver, Goodfellas, and so many other memorable roles, has now lowered himself to one of the cinematic signs of the apocalypse, starring in a buddy cop movie. The catch, I...
Pros: Pea-brains like me will love this one. Cons: My butt still hurts from hood jumping.
Only Robert DeNiro, as a work-a-day detective, would have nerve enough to team up with Eddie Murphy, as a self-proclaimed Top Cop, and not only make it work but come out on top! I don't care what other reviewers may say about this one, it does what I...
Pros: Certainly amusing... Cons: ...but never really all that funny.
Eddie Murphy first utters the signature catchphrase "It's showtime!" within the first ten minutes of Showtime, but audiences will spend the entire film waiting for that declaration to take root. Chalk up another big-name star vehicle that fails...
Pros: Eddie Murphy, Robert De Niro, great humor, no annoying cheap tricks Cons: Nothing brilliant, really stretches your ability to suspend your disbelief.
The Set Up:
How do You Make ANOTHER Cop Comedy? You make Fun of the Rest! We all remember Beverly Hills Cop (and sequels) and the humor of Eddie Murphy we all grew to love. Sure he has a wide range of talent, but don't you miss his...
Pros: Great special effects,moving fast,couple of laughs Cons: It's not what it could have been
SHOWTIME is one of the many buddie-flicks Hollywood produces every year. It's a formula that just never works out. Atleast,not on paper. Now there are a couple of ingredients you need to make a descent buddie-movie. Let me list it for you...!
...
2 Movie reviews in a week? I must be mad. Anyway, today im here to warn you. Im going to warn you NOT to part with your cash to see this film.
Showtime is possibly one of the worst pieces of cinematography with 2 of Hollywood’s finest actors.
