and dane cook being offed makes any movie better

I came across it by accident on antenna television really late at night quite a while ago now. I remember being surprised by how good I thought that it was. I should probably rewatch it at this point because the details are kind of fuzzy.

Remove Demi Moore and her story entirely and it’s a solid movie.

They shot it in Shreveport. His office is in the convention center, and the building outside his window is the back of the federal courthouse. Of all the movies shot here, this one may have the most recognizable locations in it.

I watched them film a scene that takes about 3 seconds in the movie. They set up and did it over and over and over. It did not seem like a fun way to make a living.

Really love it. Somewhat surpsing given the cast. It's an enjoyable guilty pleasure when nothing else is on

That’s how it is brotha. Imagine being the editor for Mad Max Fury Road. 500 hours of footage to edit into a 2hr movie

I thought "Mr. Brooks" was a very good movie. I liked Kevin Costner going against type and playing a psychopathic killer. I thought the scene where he murdered the poor couple who were having sex when he walked in on them was the most chilling. The look of shock and shear terror on their faces was memorable.

I liked the scene where he murders the guy in the graveyard.
