Wild Wild West

While we in the Czechia and Slovakia think of Lubomir Lipský and his famous Four Murders Are Enough, Darling as a crazy comedy, for the Americans that is a 50-metre-long mechanical spider going to assassinate the president. And I thought I was used to American movies :-) But in defence of this popcorn crap, it has to be said that it takes quite a tolerable route to entertain the audience, that some of the action scenes are quite good and that the whole thing is so incredibly mad that I couldn't tear myself away from it, especially in the first half. Unfortunately, in the end, Sonnenfeld went on an early vacation and left the rest of the crew to take care of one of the most stupid and chaotic climaxes I have ever seen. But really, I can imagine that Americans like it well enough, after all, even I can't go below 3*, if only because of Salma Hayek and Kevin Kline. 55% (28/05/2012)
