This film is Embarrassing
5 May 2006
This is the cheesiest film of all time. I regret having even given it a chance. I want those two hours or so of my life back. It embarrasses me. They don't have any idea how to make a good film. They thought that to make a good film it is all about spending lots of money to make it and being all technologically up to date and not going cheap. There is no point in making this film, what a waste of time, my toilet is deeper than this. I mean even the sheer lack of imagination and bad taste. And the Maltese don't speak English with that stupid accent, they only do so when they want to impress foreigners. John Montanaro is an old friend of mine and I always thought he had a wonderful sense of humour, i was always impressed by how clever his jokes were and how he always managed to keep a straight face when saying them, so i am sure inside while playing his role in this farce he is cracking up but would do anything to have his moment of fame, he is such a narcissist. The Maltese are so obsessed with living it up, living it flash and classy, even if they boast their religious faith. The Maltese hamalli, low life capitalists that they are, rich Arabs from The South of Europe and the North of Africa with a mentality trying to live the American dream. They would take a shot of an elegant car(I recognized it from when the Queen was here on that commonwealth occasion) with the use of a crane and maybe they would do it quite well but for no apparent reason whatsoever. A sheer lack of ideas all the way through. This film just gets worse and worse till i did not even know what I was looking at anymore. And how sad to use Fort St Elmo again after it was used for 'Midnight Express', what was he thinking? That it would make his film somewhat good? And enough of these Van Damme type movies for crying out loud, there never was a good one anyway. I could make/direct a better film with my eyes closed.
