The Palestinian and Israeli characters come together in the film to counter the paired threat of unbridled capitalism and white/American supremacy.
They defeat it with humus.
Fwiw.

You know what’s a little nuts about the trailer?
How much it feels like Wreck it Ralph.

Waterworld wasn’t the flop - Postman was. It lost ~$100 million. Gene Siskel called it “Dances with myself.”
Anyway, I still like it.

Reply to Curious, why is Letitia Wright not getting the kind of fame Zendaya is getting? by baryflawless
Zendaya is much, much, much, much smarter about how she talks to the press than Wright has been.

The Postman is at 8/50 on RT.
I can't argue with that score, but I love every minute of it.

Another great answer.
There's a pair of henchman who're introduced at :16 who really go on a journey during this chase:

Great answer.
It died by 1000, super fucking weird cuts.
Could it have worked if Shyamalan had cast someone else in his own role?
But then it wouldn't have been a Shyamalan movie, you kno know?

Sure.
Check out the Discovery, Lapsis, Primer, etc.

The copy isn’t the problem - circumventing drm is.
I guess that’s also a problem.

-
Buy every movie you want to watch again at your local thrift store/pawn shop.
-
Download Handbrake/VLC and make legal backups of those movies.
-
Never worry about streaming ever again.

There we are.
Then Jake is probably put in charge of Alonzo’s team in exchange for turning in the cash and for (in/advertently) getting rid of Alonzo.
If I were to make a delayed sequel now, I’d show him sitting at the table.

>Three wise men
Did Jake meet them?
Does he know they are corrupt?
> What do you think happens to Jake and the money?
It’s a movie about cops in LA:
Jake turns the money in as evidence of Alonzo’s corruption.
He’s given a commendation and a promotion.
He becomes Alonzo or something worse.

She isn’t.
Tom (?) ignores Summer’s boundaries. He isn’t a scoundrel, but he isn’t a great guy.

It isn’t fascinating.
It’s predictable, fawning, and a little gross.

A lot of their back and forth feels like an effort to distract us from the actors’ age difference.
(Imagine a version of this film where Cruise’s character sees Blunt’s character as a surrogate for his own child instead of a sex object. It could have worked)

>What’s your opinion on the film?
The promotional campaign for a movie shouldn't be more interesting than the movie itself.
