Mad Dog Movie Reviews

Sky Captain and the World of Tomorrow (2004)

(1 Mad Dogs)

Directed By: Kerry Conran (In his Directorial debut!)

Starring: Gwyneth Paltrow (From the hit David Schwimmer vehicle, the Pallbearer) as Polly Perkins, Jude Law (From a long list of bombs such as eXistenZ) as Joe “Sky Captain” Sullivan and Giovanni Ribisi (do you even care?) as Dex Dearborn

Wow was this just about the shittiest movie I have ever seen. Maybe worse than Weekend at Bernie’s 2! Yes I said it, worse than that. The only thing that it had which was better than Bernie’s is that it looked cool; unfortunately they ruined the scenery with actors.

The actor’s are absolutely terrible in this and no it isn’t just the script it is the fact that you bring in some of the worst actors working today and then you give them a terrible script to work with. That will never lead to a good movie. Angelina Jolie is in this movie and she continues to show that she is one of the worst actresses ever and that “Girl, Interrupted” was a fluke of greatness, but only because it is easy fro crazy to act crazy. Giovanni Ribisi always under whelms and Jude Law is the new Colin Farrell, or is that the other way around? Then we get to my favorite post on IMDB as they say that Alicia Silverstone should have take Gwyneth’s place. This would have been like choosing between puking your brains out or explosive diarrhea as something to have for the rest of your life is there even a right choice to that question?

Do not see this movie, ever!
