Whole Ten Yards Any Good? - GoFuckYourself.com

Nysus · 04-13-2004, 02:45 PM

Your thoughts? Either seeing that or Girl Next Door tonight...

Is it funny/good or just an attempt to extort money on a #2?

Cheers,
Matt

No one seen it yet? And why would 9 people click to view this thread who haven't seen it?...

Cheers,
Matt

NOT REALLY NO. IT LACKED SUBSTANCE AND THE PLOT FLOWED LIKE MOLASSES. I WOULD HAVE TO SAY I DISPROVE OF THE ENTIRE HIT MAN GONE SOFT GENRE.

"Avoid the film, burn $10, down a large Coke, then jump up and down on your bed until you're completely nauseous. The effect will be the same but you'll save 90 minutes."
-- Oz, HOLLYWOOD BITCHSLAP

"The sequel to The Whole Nine Yards is more afterthought than accomplishment, a cocktail made with orange juice and Champale instead of actual bubbly."

"Making a sequel to a forgettable little film released four years ago is bad enough, but The Whole Ten Yardsactually requires you to remember the first movie's plot."
-- Jeffrey Westhoff, NORTHWEST HERALD (CRYSTAL LAKE, IL)

"The Whole Ten Yards fails to work on so many levels that it's hard to know where to begin"
-- Willie Waffle, WAFFLEMOVIES.COM

"A paltry collection of lame one-liners, stock characters and tired sight gags."
-- Scott Von Doviak, FORT WORTH STAR-TELEGRAM

"If you find yourself pulled in with the Friday night herd to see the movie, you should be in for a tolerable enough time."
-- Phil Villarreal, ARIZONA DAILY STAR

"Shot down by hammy performances and a forced plot."
-- Betty Jo Tucker, REELTALK MOVIE REVIEWS

"There's nothing in this sequel that needs to be experienced in the theater, unless you have a particular desire to see Matthew Perry smash his face into doors, cupboards and a floor or two."
-- Gary Thompson, PHILADELPHIA DAILY NEWS

"The original may not have offered a full nine yards of laughs, but the comedic value of this moronic sequel would have to be measured not even in inches, but in millimeters."
-- Frank Swietek, ONE GUY'S OPINION

"Strenuously unfunny."
-- David Sterritt, CHRISTIAN SCIENCE MONITOR

"The upside of all this -- I'm willing to bet no one will have to go through the trouble of coming up with a sequel title with the word Eleven in it."
-- Jim Slotek, JAM! MOVIES

"The story makes absolutely no sense."
-- M.E. Russell, OREGONIAN

"One of the most embarrassingly unfunny comedies to crawl down the pike in some time."
-- Dustin Putman, THEMOVIEBOY.COM

"None of it is funny. At all. Not even a little."
-- Eugene Novikov, FILM BLATHER

"It's possibly the laziest, lamest comedy to come along in awhile."
-- Jeff Vice, DESERET NEWS, SALT LAKE CITY

Avg. Rating: 3.2/10
"An exercise in humiliation for all concerned."
-- Philip Wuntch, DALLAS MORNING NEWS

"Marginally better directed and better written than the original Nine Yards, it's still a big, empty picture full of star turns, artificial energy and jokes that don't quite work, even if stars Willis and Perry do their best to slam them across."
-- Michael Wilmington, CHICAGO TRIBUNE

"For all its loud gunplay and manic shouting, the movie never works up much of a head of steam."
-- Stephen Whitty, NEWARK STAR-LEDGER

"The story is a formulaic jumble, and the minor characters often appear to have wandered in from another Hollywood set."
-- Bob Townsend, ATLANTA JOURNAL-CONSTITUTION

"Perry is good at physical comedy. But there are only so many times Oz can take pratfalls before we start to feel embarrassed for Perry for having to milk laughs from such feeble fodder."
-- Jeff Strickler, MINNEAPOLIS STAR TRIBUNE

"The big surprise -- the only gratifying surprise -- of The Whole Ten Yards is that we're glad to see almost everyone back."
-- Gene Seymour, NEWSDAY

"... an utter disaster."
-- Richard Roeper, EBERT & ROEPER

"Where the first pic breezed along with gags and gunplay, this forced follow-up is artificial to the hilt -- fueled on a kind of trying-too-hard hilarity that makes even good actors look bad."
-- Steven Rea, PHILADELPHIA INQUIRER

"You'd have better luck locating the Lost Dutchman Mine than finding a chuckle in this film."
-- Bill Muller, ARIZONA REPUBLIC

"The Whole Ten Yards is not as desperate, unfunny, and nonsensical as its title. It's worse."
-- Wesley Morris, BOSTON GLOBE

( More... )

"The Passion was funnier than this tripe."
-- Danny Minton, KBTV-NBC (BEAUMONT, TX)

Dveron · 04-13-2004, 02:55 PM

Dude, it only got 5 positive reviews on Rotten Tomatoes. Don't waste your time or money. Don't give those Hollywood fucks an excuse to make more crap like this.

My favorite review of The Whole Ten Yards was from JoBlo at joblo.com:

http://www.joblo.com/wholetenyards.htm

"I spit on Hollywood for making this bogus, useless, unfunny, uncharming, unnecessary piece of shit and ask anyone who's reading this to avoid this movie at all costs"

Vic Lagina · 04-13-2004, 03:32 PM

I think it might be one of the most unnecessary sequels EVER.

Vitasoy · 04-13-2004, 03:34 PM

I'd rather watch Girl Next Door tonight

RP Fade · 04-13-2004, 03:44 PM

I was a sucker..and it sucked

kimzar · 04-13-2004, 03:58 PM

i saw them both and the girl next door was funnier, better characters and a lot of fun gags and situations

10 yard was more dry humor and unless your a mat perry or bruce willis fan chances are you probably won't like it

spamofon · 04-13-2004, 04:01 PM
