I hated this movie, so fucking obnoxious. The dialogue was Pretentious as fuck, meaning it tried to sound more intelligent then it really was.

It was great, and I'm one of those faggots that continues to never shut up about how Cronenberg needs to start making horror movies again.

That movie was terrible. Had a lot of homosexual undertones too.

You must have misread what OP asked for. He said "Misunderstood masterpieces", not absolute trash that Bruce Willis should be ashamed of.

It is misunderstood. The movie is a comedic adventure flick, yet it was marketed by the studios as an action movie in the vein of Die Hard. This caused the wrong audiences to see it, causing it to fail spectacularly. When seeing Hudson Hawk as a simple comedic adventure movie, the movie is fantastic. Almost feels like a Crosby and Hope movie. Stop parroting what you've heard everyone else say and actually watch the movie.

Too many characters/storylines, but I still really liked it. Just didn't live up to the first season.

Again, actually watch the movie and stop just repeating what people have said since it came out. It might surprise you. It's funny, I've encountered quite a few people that have said Hudson Hawk was a bad movie, but when I asked them why they thought it was, they couldn't answer. Why? They'd never seen it, and only heard it was bad. I'd then sit them down to watch it, explaining the studio interference beforehand, and at the end, they said they actually liked the movie.

Agreed, actually.

Maybe I jumped the gun posting it in a thread asking for "masterpieces." I think it's great, but it's flawed up the ass.

That said, I do think that it's misunderstood and underrated. Can't believe that it's making worst-of lists.

Bruce Willis isn't funny.

I understood Robert Pattinson's character as the embodiment of captalism. The bodyguard represents the government, protecting him (capitalism) from an assasination (popular revolution) until he grows tired of the few rules imposed on him and shoots him. Haircut from a mom and pop barber = tax cut.

But this isn't Elysium tier junk food. Giamatti satircally encapsulates Marxist theory, he is ultimately a fraud who couldn't achieve anything in life and wants to blame the system. As Paul points the gun at Robert he says: I wanted you to save me. In our heart of hearts, everyone (including college communists) wants to believe in the god of the free market. That we can all somehow be rich by working in our own self interests.

It's a more fun movie to think about than to watch.

I nearly fell for this meme until people started pretending it blows S1 out of the water.

The ending literally capped the entire movie and what it was about. Don't know why the critics were so harsh on it.
