I must not be reading reviews of the same movie I just tried to watch yesterday... I saw "Bandits" with Bruce Willis (one of our favorite actors) and Billy Bob Thorton.
The wife and I watched more than two hours of this movie (at least it felt like it), chuckling on occasion but mostly trying to NOT fall asleep. Finally we compared notes and turned it off.
The only other movie that we've ever done that with was "Baby Geniuses" with Kathleen Turner, another of our favorite movie stars. That one lasted maybe ten minutes.
With a solid cast, this movie should be been at least entertaining if not good. Personally, I think "Bandits" suffers an identity crisis. It doesn't know if it's an action movie, comedy, drama or romance movie. What it achieves is being boring. It moved slower than our son when asked to take out the trash.
I'm not sure what all these other folks saw that they loved so much that we didn't see. Maybe we didn't take enough drugs or something.
I'll give this movie a 2 out of 10 only because it wasn't as bad as Baby Geniuses which I gave a 1 out of 10.
