WOW! Check out this scathing review of this new "Stealth" movie

[DS1]

I suspect Stealth will get Stealthy ticket sales.

''Stealth" is a pretty fair military-hardware action movie until you start thinking about it -- at which point it turns incredibly sour in your mouth. I can therefore recommend it to any and all audiences lacking higher brain functions. Sea cucumbers, perhaps. Ones waving American flags.

Am I spoiling the party? Harshing the high-flying flyboy buzz? Tough. For a movie to pretend, in the face of the deaths of tens of thousands of Iraqi men, women, and children directly or indirectly caused by our presence there, that we can wage war without anyone really getting hurt isn't naive, or wishful thinking, or a jim-dandy way to spend a Saturday night at the movies. It's an obscenity.

1. LMAO

Should be really popular over at Free Republic.

:rofl:

2. This is what Roger Ebert say in the first sentences of his review:

'Stealth" is an offense against taste, intelligence and the noise pollution code -- a dumbed-down "Top Gun" crossed with the HAL 9000 plot from "2001."

3. It's the anti-war angle of this review that's the most striking

Read the whole thing, I only pasted the first and last paragraphs

4. The money quote:

"The issue is that this is exactly the sort of movie we don't need right now: a delusional military fantasy in which collateral damage doesn't exist."
:applause:

5. I'm going to email this guy with a thumbsup

6. "Stealth" looks like a right-wingers wet dream

And Jamie Foxx seems to be sadly displaying the dreaded "icky film choices after winning an Oscar" syndrome that has sadly befallen quite a few Oscar winners.

7. Read the article

This freeper-porn was filmed BEFORE he got the Oscar.

[terrya]

11. It does clearly say that, doesn't it? Thanks.

But I still think "Stealth" is a right-wingers wet dream. This looks like the kind of crap John Milius used to direct.

[Commie Pinko Dirtbag]

12. That, sir, is absolutely beyond dispute.

Golam-Globus Chuck Norris junk anyone?

8. Here's the New York Post's review

They call it a roboflop.

9. I'ts the must-miss movie of the summer...

If you don't watch just one movie this summer, don't watch Stealth!

[DS1]

13. I tried to watch Stealth, but I couldn't see it

*groan*

[LynneSin]

10. I'm assuming Jamie Foxx committed to this movie BEFORE he won the Oscar

now that he has an OSCAR he should be doing better stuff than crap like this

[Fenris]

14. Oh man....

"A scene or two later, Kara insists that 'if it's programmed by moral people, it'll be moral,' but since she subsequently announces she has to go 'pee-pee,' mature strategic analysis may not be the character's strong suit."
