I've been waiting for this New Cameron Crowe Film for a while! With a Cast like this... Heaven! Bill Murray FTW!!!

(PS... Why isn't Krasinski in more films? He is the always best.)

Cameron Crowe is automatic gold in my eyes. Even his worst films are enjoyable. In fact, it's writers like Crowe that made me want to become a writer. Looks great!

Move is getting the Paul Balart treatment in reviews.No one is liking it.I wanted to see it so bad, but might wait for it to hit Psn.I wanted this to be good sooooo Bad.I think people might be hating a little also.All the reviews are saying the cast is too beautiful and they wouldn't deal with real people problems.I'm like: "that ugly dude from the office is in this ".

Rachel McAdams
is beautiful in this movie.That scene where she looks back at B.Cooper had me like ,Damn!

Never really saw anything she was in,well, maybe Sherlock Holmes 2 but that was forgettable.



 
It's too bad the reviews are not good. I really like Cameron Crowe but from what I've read, it seems like he misfired with this one.
How do you waste such an awesome cast?

And I just realized too, this is a "Wedding Crashers" reunion with Cooper and McAdams!
 
I saw this last night. I really tried to like it, but it's such a jumbled mess. It doesn't make up its mind on what it is. They dabble in Hawaiian cultural mysticism, but then it disappeared and they did nothing with it. Believe it or not, there is even an over-the-top plot of Bill Murray's character that I will put in spoilers below. Bradley Cooper and Emma Stone are both good for what they had to deal with, but it fails on so many levels. There is one hilarious use of subtitles towards the end. It does end well, but not enough to completely save it.

Bill Murray's character Carson Welch has a storyline to potentially take over the world. Yes, you read that right. A ridiculous plan to partner with the US Military to launch a satellite containing nuclear weapons. Somehow, the military has no idea there are weapons aboard. More importantly, somehow no executive at Sony read the script and said, "This is too ridiculous to keep in this film." I have no idea what they were thinking.
