LOVEFiLM Review The Tourist

  • 2 stars out of 5  

    By Tom Charity from LOVEFiLM

    Take two mega-movie stars - in this case Angelina Jolie and Johnny Depp - and what do you get? Something altogether underwhelming in this case...

    What a terrible film! The plot is so old fashioned and full of male-centric chauvinism, that it lead me to look online after watching it, to see if it is based on Bond-era stereotypes from the 1950s. However it wasn't, and Bond it isn't, as this tale of espionage lacks both humour and a clever plot.

    It has been named the worst film of 2010 by several sources; wish I had looked into this beforehand! It has also been said by the director that it does indeed contain humour, but I think this humour was accidental, and ONLY declared in an attempt to redeem the shoddy script; it doesn't.

    It baffled me how two good actors ever agreed to 'star' in this terrible remake, although I imagine money had a lot to do with it. Seriously - avoid

  • The Angelina Show...Yawn!

    Rated - 1.5 stars

    Rather silly movie although perfect if you have a crush on Angelina Jolie. It consists mainly of her dressed in different figure hugging outfits and sexy looks to everyone who looks at her. No chemistry between Jolie and Depp so makes for a rather unconvincing romantic tale. Lovely location though.

    Great plot, locations and great performances by the Brits. Pity the two main actors were totally wrong for the part.

    I liked the idea of this film. I'm kind of torn because i love Depp and appreciate Jolie but i just didn't get any chemistry between them. It was just lacking in believing their connection. Either actor should have played opposite another choice and it may have worked better. Still enjoyed it reasonably.

    This film was good, but for me the star of this film was not Jolie, or Deep but Stephen Berkoff he always plays the bad guy, but these are the best roles for him. The story and plot was pretty basic. We worked out near the beginning that deep was playing both characters, Jolie was good in a supporting role. The film was not good as thought it would be, but still worth watching.

  • Definitely to watch!

    This is a nice movie with action, humor, originality, big stars, etc. I would definitely recommend watching, and for anyone who feels having seen the whole movie by watching the trailer: you will never be able to guess the end!
