I love Jackie Chan. But if this is the kind of movie he plans to make from here on out, then count me out.
Rush Hour was fine, and I was glad to see Jackie finally get some recognition here in the States but everything from that point on has been darn near unwatchable. Finally, with The Tuxedo Jackie hits rock bottom. Hollywood has finally dragged Jackie down to their level.
I see that a lot of screenwriting hacks got fat paychecks on this unwatchable garbage. And some "director" by the name of Kevin Donahue (I think that's what it said) helmed this mess. I checked out his pic - the usual I've got long hair at 40, probably very good in the room - white male that gets to make money in Hollywood. I'm sure his Dad or best friend got him the job. Because it certainly wasn't his talent. He has none!!!!
This was the worst movie I have seen in a long, long time. And I don't have high expectations any more. Using my usual yardstick of Dude, Where's My Car as a 5 (I only looked at my watch once when I saw it in the theater) The Tuxedo gets a 1. My friend who paid for us to see this movie apologized afterwards for dragging me to see it. (One of her friends was in it.) I think that's all you really need to know - the person who paid for the tickets apologized after the film!
Don't pass go, don't see this flick, don't rent this flick, and tell others to STAY AWAY!!!!!!!!
