The reason this movie isn't good is that it is THE BEST! Easily the finest movie I got to see this year, BWP knocked my socks off like no other "horror" movie has ever before! I refused to watch it at first when a friend told me about it, but then he talked me into watching it, that too all alone, very very late at nite, after turning out the lights! And that is the ONLY way to truly enjoy this movie: alone by yourself, late late late at nite, and no snacks!! I DARE you to not be scared!!!

Forget special-effects, forget background music, forget everything you've been seeing in movies for the past 20 years and prepare to be shocked like never before!

If BWP doesn't win all the Oscars, I'll never forgive Hollywood. I MEAN IT!! This is a not-miss flick, do NOT pass it up, do NOT miss it and DO NOT INSULT IT! A masterpiece in every aspect, THIS is how you do a "horror" movie! The performances are EXTREMELY well-done and very natural! Brilliant!!!

(from 5): *****1/2

I remember experiencing this really satisfied feeling somewhere deep down inside me when this movie finally ended, and all I can say is.. STREET FIGHTER FANS, REJOICE! If you thought that Van Damme movie was aweful, you ain't seen nothin' yet! Even though Mortal Kombat is one of the lousier video games out there, and even though I despise its existence, MK:ANNIHILATION is something I wouldn't wish to my worst enemy!

I really wish I could say more, but why waste time when I can convey my message/review in just one short sentence: THIS IS ONE KORNY PILE OF KRAP! When they said "Nothing can prepare you" they sure said it, even though I wonder if they knew what they meant.

I was gonna give this, um, "movie" a rating on a 5-scale, but I don't think it deserves a ZERO.. but that IS the lowest score I can think of...

IMPORTANT NOTE: If you REALLY want to enjoy this movie, try stomping on it, driving your car over it, tossing it into a blast furnace, smashing it as hard as you can with a sledge hammer for as long as possible, among other things.

Get Shorty was one of those few rare flicks that I thoroughly enjoyed, although it was a short-lived enjoyment. The movie is fast, reasonably short in duration, and very, very, very entertaining! The performances are brilliant, extremely entertaining and hilarious to say the least!

Travolta shines as Palmer, Russo is fantastic as always, Hackman and the "bad guys" are absolutely terrific, and DeVito adds his two bits, and there's a winning combination if there ever was one! If you're in the mood of a short, smart movie, you cannot be disappointed with Get Shorty!
