Well considering he looked about 12yo in the original he's probably looking the part in the sequel.

Typical gung ho yanks s.hite. Wife and Daughter liked it, I laughed at it as you could read the next line before it happened with all the whooping, hand clapping and back slapping you expect to see from the US armed forces when it goes right.

I suppose it boosts the yank morale and those that see it that way, glad you enjoyed it. Each to their own I suppose.

I think you've even ben taken in by the portrayal of the US Armed Forces in films Brin to thinking that's the way it is in reality. Like in the UK, today is a holiday in the US, Memorial Day to remember everyone who has died in armed conflict. It's quite sobering to see to sights of members of the public placing US Flags on the graves of every single one of them (many thousands in some cemeteries) and attending services in their honour. No pomp and circumstance, just respect.

Like you say Brin, each to their own, I thought it was a good film, funny in places and yes of course the usual yanky back slapping you would expect to see in a movie of this nature. I thought it was a good pick me up after the crappy 2 years we have all just endured. So cheer up you miserable git ;D XD

🤣 👍

When asked why she wasn't in the movie, Kelly McGinnis replied "because I'm old, fat and look age appropriate". Nothing like speaking the truth and testament to the fact that without 'having work done' the majority of even Hollywood are just like the rest of us.

One man's meat. I thought it was utter crap. But then I have never been able to suspend belief when watching the 5ft 2" front man for Scientology
