As of July 4 this movie with a budget of 160 million already grossed 233 million representing 73 million in profit and counting (as per IMDb) This is not an Oscar or Golden Globe candidate. Quit whining about the script or lack of it. I don't think that was a priority in pre production.
Laws of physics and reality? Do you think they care? The more absurd the better.
Gibson was actually funny, they are selling this film globally so the humor has to be plain and simple, not intelligent or too steeped in Americana or British ness.
The goal is to keep ages 7-14 mostly boys entertained for the 2 hours or so. Have you hanged out with this demographic recently.
Quit whining about Johnson. He is not fat and works out unlike the rest of us. Ditto for the rest of the actors. I find them all humble actually.
The studios have to make money somewhere to support all the sappy Oscar candidate drama.
It is what it is. If you want "so called high art" go to a freaking film festival or a musical.
If Quentin directed this there would be more blood, more cuss words but probably won't have as fantastic car chases and would be R (I love Quentin BTW) If you want intelligence you need to appreciate the planning involved, to be on budget, to be safe and make a profit. An artsy director may not have those skills, this one and the production crew do.
