Are these stars past their use
Jude Law, George Clooney, Nicole Kidman, Michael Cera,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], Bruce Willis, Harrison Ford and Cameron Diaz have appeared in films that bombed recently but does that mean they deserve to be mocked and pilloried?
I argue that every hard-working actor is entitled to fail occasionally, but their flops and disappointments do make them susceptible to attack from bloggers like the Wrap Brent Lang.
Within an article headlined Hollywood's Top ten Flop Squad, Lang pointed the finger at stars who keep working despite track records. He cited Jude Law latest dud, the futuristic thriller Repo Men, after the misfires My Blueberry Nights, Sleuth, All the King's Men, Closer and Breaking and Entering. Ah,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], but what about Law performance as Watson in Sherlock Holmes, Guy Ritchie movie which sold a lot more than $US500 million price of tickets worldwide? Its success was due solely to co-star Robert Downey Jr,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], according to Lang.
Audiences loved Michael Cera in Superbad and Juno however they ignored Year One, Paper Heart, Extreme Movie and Youth in Revolt,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], Lang notes. Maybe so, but Cera also starred in , which grossed $31 million in america, a reasonable return on its $10 million budget.
Perhaps most unfairly,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], Lang derides Clooney, writing off as flops The Men Who Stare at Goats, The great Mr. Fox, Leatherheads and The Good German, while grudgingly acknowledging the prosperity of Up in the Air. Never mind the Oscar nominations and critical plaudits for Mr Fox and Clooney terrific operate in most of those films plus Michael Clayton and Burn After Reading. Or the highly lucrative Oceans capers.
Maligning Nicole Kidman, he blasts Australia,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], Nine and also the Golden Compass as epic bombs, ignoring the truth that Baz Luhrmann romantic epic performed strongly away from US,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], enough where Fox made a small profit. Nic was simply a member of the ensemble cast of Nine , so why invest the culprit on her behalf?
It is tough to defend Bruce Willis after his recent history of Cop Out,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], Surrogates,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], What Just Happened, Grindhouse,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], and Perfect Stranger. Diaz has blotted her copybook using the Box, My Sister's Keeper and In Her Shoes,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], however the Holiday racked up a healthy $205 million worldwide.
Harrison Ford showed he is able to still crack a whip with audiences in Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull, but he lucked out in Extraordinary Measures,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], Hollywood Homicide and Crossing Over. Still,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], should we blame a man who 67 for trying to prolong his career in low-budget independent movies?
Lang sees that Kate Winslet continues to be widely hailed as the greatest actress of her generation but carps that they has been in a position to translate critical plaudits into box-office love. He rates Revolutionary Road, Little Children and all sorts of the King's Men as challenging fare,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], but claims their earnings reveal that Winslet's prowess sank with Titanic.
Piffle! Evidently he forgot her Oscar-winning performance within the Reader (which grossed a tidy $109 million globally), and her nominations for Little Children, Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind and Iris. Or that throughout her career she's won the admiration of millions of cinemagoers.
Algeria, 1959. Full of the mountains of Kabylia, Terrien, an idealistic lieutenant takes over the command of a platoon at a French army outpost. Here he meets Dougnac, a cynical sergeant. Their differences and also the harsh realities in the field drive both men to breaking point. Lost in an undeclared war,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], they discover that their worst enemy is themselves. Director Florent-Emilio Siri reveals the true brutality and horrors of war. Stars Benoît Magimel, Albert Dupontel and Aurélien Recoing. (From France, in French and Kabyle) (War) (2007) (Rpt) MAV (A,V)
