Thunder Force

3 words that best describe this movie are: bland, predictable and unnecessary. I really don't get it. To build this kind of film it costs millions of dollars and how no one saw that this isn't hit just a flop. They had great cast, acting was really on point but plot is just terrible. Nothing unique in this movie, no jokes, comedy is in such a low level. Imdb have put this film in most waited spring movies and I believed in that. Now I'm just disappointed and angry. I wouldn't recommend to watch this film because it doesn't worth your time.

I watched this thinking Melissa, Octavia and Jason wouldn't betray me with some crappy, predictable comedy. I was wrong. I mean, it's not unwatchable but it's definitely not worth a rewatch. Just put it on to play when you go out so the dogs have some background noise to distract them from chewing your furniture.

While Melissa McCarthy can be funny (I enjoyed The Heat and Spy), it's obvious no matter the studio, everything McCarthy and her husband, Ben Falcone, offer up is immediately greenlit. That has to stop. This is the umpeeth unfunny movie by the married duo.

After the first 30 minutes, I simply had the movie on in the background, but could still hear McCarthy's ad-libs which were excruciatingly awful.

If this is the best an immensely talented actress like Octavia Spencer has to pick from, that's a sad commentary on the state of comedic films. Let's hope she got a big, upfront payday.

I really wanted to like this after seeing the two stars beings interviewed.

Its starts off well.

It has an interesting premise.

Most of the jokes fall flat - McCarthy is just not funny, mostly, in this.

What starts out as reasonably original soon transcends into "seen something very similar to this before, I know whats going to happen next" territory, which would be fine if most of the jokes landed. They don't.

Special effects are pretty good.

Around the halfway point I realised it wasn't going to go anywhere and I started to get bored.

For me, the big saving grace and the reason for my 5 star rating is Jason Bateman. He is fantastic in this and funny - love scenes with McCarthy aside (I didn't get the "jokes").

If I had paid anything to see this I would have felt short changed.

Stupid movie. Yup. Predictable and nothing new here. This movie has been made about 30 times but hey.. there's a few chuckles and it kills some time.

If you go into this thinking your gonna be surprised or impressed. You're gonna hate it. I say, lighten up and have some fun. Because that's all this silly film is. Fun and empty calories.
