“I wasn’t really sure what to expect from this flick but, since it was available on Netflix, I thought I might as well check it out. Well, To be honest, I thought it was not bad at all as it turned out to be a solid Dutch thriller after all. Indeed, the story and the characters involved were all qu” read more
Notes: This is only the 2nd movie I have seen involving the legendary comedian but, to be honest, it seems that the guy played pretty much the same character in all his movies. Furthermore, I have to admit that I was rather tired and distracted when I watched the damned thing but, to be honest, the story and the characters involved were not really strong. In fact, almost half of the duration was some kind of Vaudeville act involving the Great McGonigle and his troupe but I thought it was only mildly entertaining. However, it was absolutely quite awesome when W.C. Fields or the Great McGonigle did his juggling act. Indeed, I always loved this kind of circus acts and I have to admit that I was actually quite blown away by Fields’s skills. I also think it displayed that, even though the Great McGonigle was a hustler, a loser, a cheat, he was also a real artist after all and I think it was pretty neat. Anyway, even if the plot was hardly inspiring, there is no doubt that Fields was the real deal and the guy was always entertaining. Another thing that I enjoyed was the final scene. Indeed, even though it might not seem much, I thought it was really awesome because it made me realized that the character Dr. Aldous Smith in ‘La ballade des Dalton’ (a rather obscure French animated feature which I saw 100’s times when I was a kid) was actually based on W.C. Fields which was really cool.

“To be honest, I wasn’t really sure what to expect from this flick but since it was available on Netflix, I thought I might as well check it out. Well, even if it seemed to be another uninspired and forgettable Netflix production, I think the damned thing actually had some potential. Indeed, above ” read more
“To be honest, I wasn’t expecting much from this flick but since it was starring Emma Roberts and since it was available on Netflix, I thought I might as well check it out. Well, unfortunately, as expected, it turned out to be a cheap romantic comedy with a rather weak concept. I still think that E” read more
