Cowboys and Aliens (2011)





There is really only one reason to watch this piece of shit, and that is Daniel Craig. More specifically: Daniel Craig's ass in chaps. Holy shit. He is amazing. Amazing.

The movie sucks ass. The theater tonight broke into laughter when Olivia Wilde appeared on screen, and the ending also got laughter. It's not that there are one or two story lines that are stupid and disconnected, but rather that the entire film is made up of stupid and disconnected stories and characters. The dialog is ludicrous. And - no shit - the effects are terrible. The alien ship is totally fake (the Death Star was much better), and the aliens were lame. The movie lost about 50% of my respect and attention when Olivia Wilde showed up in an outfit from the Marc Jacobs prairie collection (nice and sheer), but the last remnants of interest were trampled when the aliens turned out to be poor, sad CGI knockoffs of the Alien alien. Pathetic.

I was bored. I was annoyed. I was embarrassed for Daniel Craig. He is so hot.

So is Jon Favreau the new Michael Bay?
