If you had said "Naked Gun" ... I would have in all in...

Seen the trailer a few days ago

i'd imagine this is what a Black Widow could look like.

Now if only Jenny had as NICE a Bottom as Scarlet....

It's like JLaw's trying to shake off her clean cut image.

But she's still too prim & proper to go all the way.

Nah. She is just rich enough now she can waste her time making these POS Arty Films. Because.. ACTING!!!!!!

I watched some of this last night (didn't finish it) and it is pretty hardcore at times.

This Russian espionage stuff isn't really my cup of tea, but the film is intriguing for sure.

It's distracting to me, though, that they are all supposed to be Russian and no one is speaking Russian. They only have a very slight Russian accent. To me the film would be stronger if it was Russian with subtitles.

I thought it was terrible. Very little action and a predictable storyline.

Well, I haven't finished it yet, but I saw a review and expected it to not have much action. It's not listed as an action film, more drama, mystery, thriller.

And yet the commercials try to make it look like a cross between James Bond and Atomic Blonde.

Wonder Why?

Yeah, I don't know why the people in control of marketing like to misrepresent and thus set up their film for failure. I don't get it.

Oh look another Jlaw movie. Not interested in the least after she bitched about Chris Pratt's salary on Passengers. He was THE star and had more screen time by quite a bit. Yet she screamed "sexism" and so despite being in the film less they payed her more than Pratt. **** her. Equal rights should mean equal not more.

Lol, the fact that you're so violently opposed to her being paid the same as the other dual star of the film is odd. They were clearly dual stars of the film and deserved equal pay. Slight difference in screen time shouldn't have much to do with it.

If she demanded MORE then yeah, that's egotistical or something. Maybe she thinks that highly of her movie star power or something. But honestly I didn't follow the situation.
