but ya know with all the negativity out there, it sure is nice that stuckmann says nice things about movies that already get good reviews. such bravery to enjoy mainstream and critically acclaimed films.
@@austindolan7182 you do realize that he has explicitly said that he’s not gonna review movies that he doesn’t like. So now it is on you to do your own research and look back at all the movies that I’ve come out and see which ones he didn’t review to give you an idea as to the ones he didn’t like. Not everyone has to like the movies you do or dislike the ones you do.
I think the premise of this movie is exactly how Liam and his agent interact. He gets a call on his phone that tells him to do something ridiculous, and he just goes with it.
By now all the scripts his agent get sent have the same plot and main character so the only relevant questions when choosing movies to do is "how long will filming be" and "how much"
We saw this one a few weeks ago as part of the Regal Monday Mystery movie. A lot of people walked out. We stayed thinking it would get better... we were wrong 😂
I laughed so hard at the villain being revealed and the way the whole thing wrapped up. They really didn't care about making something coherent or even entertaining.
I'm in a conundrum. On one hand I kind of hope Hollywood keeps giving out garbage movies because Jeremy's reviews always get funnier when he has to suffer through trash for our benefit. But on the other hand I don't want him going insane or becoming an alcoholic
"The kids are fine line" 😅That fits perfectly for such a character! A man so...disconnected - and self-absorbed - he cannot tell the difference between 'fine' and 'in danger,' anymore than he can remember his kids names most probably...😉a caricature!
Yeah but (haven’t seen it since I was a kid on Vhs) didn’t the slipper fall off because she was running?? I lost a well fitting shoe once escaping a field party in high school. I get get the joke here but it was a slipper.
It’s so weird to me that Liam Neeson - the star of huge films like Schindler’s List, Michael Collins, Rob Roy, The Phantom Menace, Love Actually and Darkman - has now somehow relegated himself to playing parodies of himself from Taken.
@@1997residente He was a very good actor. And still is - he sometimes does low budget stuff in the UK, and has a real low-key, heartfelt presence. But his action persona movies are, indeed, dogshit.
These are paycheck movies. The ones actors do for the money to pay the bills and cash flow their lifestyle while they do the small, meaningful projects that dont pay well.
If you're interested in the answer to the Cinderella thing: in the fairy tale, the prince tries to stop her from vanishing night after night by covering a step on the castle stairs in pitch, on which the shoe gets stuck. I guess this doesn't happen in the Disney version? It's been a long time since I've seen it.
Why do the producers thought they need more of these Liam Neeson-on-the-phone-peril movies after Non-Stop? The actor has much more potential than being typecasted as such...
The whole bit about the car being sideways and the pressure plate bomb not going off because the writers don’t know how weight works made me laugh so hard I cried. Just…did no one proofread the script? That sounds like an error you would make in the first draft, and that made it into the final cut. Wow. Unbelievable.
The positives about this movie is that we get to enjoy You, Jeremy entertain us with a review like this. The highlight of my Friday. Thank you for that.
I was hoping this film would rely on his world class acting chops and not his action chops which never a thing. I'm still probably going to see it. With AMC movie pass being a subscription based service I'm seeing a lot of stuff that I would have passed on before. It even works out sometimes
Ngl, I miss having frequent reviews of Jeremy on my feed. This man has single-handedly kept me sane during long working hours over the last decade-ish. GOATed Movieman
This review made me wish we could spam the like button on your vids. The obvious why did that cop not go after the “guy” or the car is on its side and the bomb did not go off. Sooo many movies/tv shows do this and it really annoys me. 🙄 love your stuff Jeremy. 👍🏻 Keep it up.
I love that line about Cinderella ( from this review , not seeing the movie) “ If the shoe fit so well, why did it fall off” , not 100 % sure why , but it made me think of another line , I recently heard on a episode of Father Brown , where a police officer told the want to be detective priest to leave the sleuthing to the professionals, too which Father Brown responded…”Professionals built the Titanic, a amateur built the Ark” 🖖🏾
1:56 "Sometimes, the movie reminded me of another movie that it pulled from that did it better." That line slayed me. The one good thing he could think about to say about the film.
Your rating for this movie was unexpected, priceless and hillarious altogether, and it made me genuinely laugh out loud! Never change XD Also please review Oldboy with the 4K remaster:’)
Writing this before I even watched JJ's review. I saw a whiskey glass and that look on his face on the thumbnail....I know this gonna be good. God I love this channel.
i've definitely seen this movie a few times before. specifically, that phone call while he's driving reminds me of a movie called "the ticking man" that i saw in 2001 at a film festival in palm springs. except in this one, instead of the bomb being in the car, it was surgically implanted inside of the man's torso while he was asleep! 😆 while i can't imagine it being better, it at least had that ultra-low-budget thing going for it.
I once wrote a movie script about a retired CIA agent whose daughter got kipnapped in France, but it turned out that script was taken. 😕 I wrote another movie script about that same CIA agent who got kipnapped in Istanbul, but it turned out that script was taken too... 😕
It wasn't that the shoe fit her well, its that she had such abnormally small feet that the shoe was too tiny for anyone else to fit, yet it was falling off Cinderella's feet. Hense why her step-sisters had their heels and toes chopped off to try to fit in the small shoe while it was literally falling off Cinderella's extra tiny feet.
Another Liam Neeson movie for my dad to watch and then watch again in a month with no memory of having watched it before. Ironically, the last time he did that was for the Liam Neeson film Memory. I’m not joking.
Fact: There are three adaptations of this movie that was based off. One the original comes from Spain for almost a decade ago and it's the same title in the Spanish language. The second is couple of years ago that comes from Korea called "Hard Hit." And finally the third one comes from Germany, also came out couple of years ago titled "Don't! Get! Out!"
I was looking at the comment section to see if somebody had said this! I really like the original spanish movie, it has great tension... this seems just like another hollywood movie trying to replicate something successful, but missing what made the original a good movie in the first place
Didn't even know about this one though it's amazing that Hollywood could make phonebooth in a car more boring than it sounds. I feel a straight up adaptation of Blinddrive in which you literally don't see anything would have been more fun/interesting than anything Jeremy attempts to describe here.
6:39 In the Grimm brothers version of Cinderella, the prince actually lays out tar on the front steps of the ball so that he can catch Cinderella before she runs off, but her slipper gets stuck and that's how her slipper fell off. Note: the ball actually occurs over three nights, the prince falls in love with Cinderella each night before she runs off, and on the third night he plans to catch her with the tar on the steps. ........Just thought it was worth mentioning
Who would have thought that in a summer season with the Flash Indiana Jones 5 a generic Thriller with Liam Neeson driving a bomb on a car would be the one to Break Jeremy.
Jeremy's reviews are always entertaining, but this one especially kept getting progressively funnier through to the end ("So 'Barbie', have you seen it?" was the icing on the cake) 😆.
Yeaaahhhhhh..... I had a feeling about this one. It was either going to see Retribution last night or staying home with takeout Italian to rewatch the last season of Star Wars Rebels after filming my Ahsoka review. Rebels and Italian takeout totally won. 😉 Thanks for the review.
Liam Neeson is really out here still riding that Taken train 15 years later! Don't get me wrong I have fun with a lot of his mid-budget thrillers, but this one is such a hollow and forgettable attempt at one of those. 90 minutes of my life that I'll never get back...
Actually, Retribution is the third remake of the Spanish thriller "El desconocido". The South Korean and the German remakes already were major step downs in quality from the original which was well cast and suspenseful.
When I first saw the trailer for this film the first thing that came to mind, as it related to the core theme of this film, was a social experiment. Hopefully, the film won't be that bad when I watch it.
Think of just how many of them are striking, and this movie, of ALLLLLLL the things that have been written by those same crowds, was amongst the cream that rose to the top.
Answer to ur Cinderella stuck slipper dilema.... A slipper can fit perfectly when initially put on but when human feet sweat (a glass slipper is equivalent to a shoe with no socks on or if Cinderella is nervous people develop perspiration)... the moisture will build up allowing the slipper to fall off.
Saw it last night. Had a decent time with the movie in that "well it's end of summer, let's wrap this up" Liam neeson has to meet his yearly quote of 1 -2 movies tops this year. 😅😅 7/10 for me
15 years later and everyone is still trying to mess with Liam Neeson's family. Nobody ever learns about his particular set of skills.
Gold 😂😂😂😂😂
15 years later and he keeps having kids...
Its been used before.
I can't believe it has been that long since Taken was released
That sex of skills is being in horrible shitty films?
Definitely appreciate when a reviewer is willing to call a movie terrible. It adds authenticity to the whole channel.
but ya know with all the negativity out there, it sure is nice that stuckmann says nice things about movies that already get good reviews. such bravery to enjoy mainstream and critically acclaimed films.

The director of this movie is literally named Nimrod.
Man needs to eat
By now all the scripts his agent get sent have the same plot and main character so the only relevant questions when choosing movies to do is "how long will filming be" and "how much"
Plus, wasn’t The Marksman film supposed to be Neeson’s final action film? At least that’s what I remember hearing at the time.
@@tjjordan4207the Marksman was his last Good movie does that count ? 🤔
Holy crap, I love this "eff it" style review from Jeremy. Felt like I was talking to my friend over drinks.
That's the Jeremy brand
That’s why we love this man
Yeah this seemed to break him, I love an apathetic review.
Nah dont like it dont watch it. This feels kinda sad. Kinda feels like i am lisening to somebody that has lost the spark.
@@aigarsjevers1274 Are you suggesting to Jeremy that if he doesn't like a movie, he shouldn't watch it? That's literally his job
That Liam Neeson impression was solid.

I've never been to one of those and enjoyed what they showed.
It sounds entertaining. I love a good thriller. What was so bad about it? I loved Phone Booth.
do you think booze will make the experience better?
I laughed so hard at the villain being revealed and the way the whole thing wrapped up. They really didn't care about making something coherent or even entertaining.
@@FellaGuy2 Sounds like the movie lands at Regal, it looks bad, so they want to make sure they are right before they trash can it.

The Cinderella line sounds like the best part. Because its actually thought provoking.
It was the best part ironically I heard the line before and it just felt so out of place
Yeah but (haven’t seen it since I was a kid on Vhs) didn’t the slipper fall off because she was running?? I lost a well fitting shoe once escaping a field party in high school. I get get the joke here but it was a slipper.
If the review is more entertaining than what the movie is expected to be, I'm here for it.
It’s so weird to me that Liam Neeson - the star of huge films like Schindler’s List, Michael Collins, Rob Roy, The Phantom Menace, Love Actually and Darkman - has now somehow relegated himself to playing parodies of himself from Taken.

Don’t forget Batman Begins!!
These are paycheck movies. The ones actors do for the money to pay the bills and cash flow their lifestyle while they do the small, meaningful projects that dont pay well.
I've never thought about that Cinderella slipper thing before. But now it's going to bother me for the rest of my life. Great review as always!
It's funny how Liam Neeson was the one to teach Batman and Obi Wan Kenobi how to fight and yet there's still someone trying to mess with him.
Qui Gon never trained Anakin tho. It's Obi-Wan
Worlds dumbest criminals
@@rezaimran98I stand corrected.
It's been too long since I watched the prequels, it seems. 😅
@rezaimran98
😂 if he had trained Ani.
Things would have definitely turn out different.
@@MG007. Anakin would have been even more OP. So I guess the force needed Qui Gon dead in order to preserve balance.

Always appreciated that Jeremy isn't "Mr. Negative" by default when reviewing movies.
That way when he is, it's way more fun lol
Man got a drink in the thumbnail. Not a great sign😂
It never gets old watching Liam Neeson taking down bad guys when they threaten his family. He rocks. None can replace him.
He doesn’t do any of that here, total dumpster fire
The positives about this movie is that we get to enjoy You, Jeremy entertain us with a review like this.
The highlight of my Friday.
Thank you for that.

If you think this is funny go back and find his review for Cats. Ultimate classic from Jeremy.

That amateur had really good instructions though...
Amen 🙏🏾 🖖🏾
It fell off cause Cinderella wanted to make sure the prince came looking for her and scolded the family imprisoning her.
Jeremy’s impression of Liam Neeson is actually perfect 😂
That dude that went by himself laughing definitely knew it was gonna be a so bad it's good movie.
Jeremy... you're the best. You make me laugh and you're not an idiot. What more can you need from a UA-cam video?
Reviews like this are why I love you Jeremy! I laughed and had a huge smile on my face for the whole video!
Jeremy is one of the nicest reviewers around. For him to attack a film this hard it has to be bad.
Scotch is good but surprised you're not doing this in your dressing gown with your coffee mug....

Jeremy, I blame you for getting me in the mood to watch Phone Booth again. I love that movie. RIP Joel Schumacher
That’s a really solid Liam Neeson impression 🎉
It felt like a much worse version of "Phone Booth". Which is an amazing film, unlike this one....
Phone booth is an fantastic film, and highly underrated.
I once wrote a movie script about a retired CIA agent whose daughter got kipnapped in France, but it turned out that script was taken. 😕
I wrote another movie script about that same CIA agent who got kipnapped in Istanbul, but it turned out that script was taken too... 😕
*sigh*......... well done
Hahaha! Love this!
That Cinderella line definitely made me reset my brain😅
Always gonna be a good time when either Jeremy has a drink in the thumbnail or if he forgets the movie title.
God bless you for sitting through this one Jeremy! Hopefully Blasphemous 2 is everything you hoped for.
at this point i am convinced that your review of this movie is entertaining than the movie itself.
I haven't seen this movie but it is a remake of a Spanish movie, Desconocido (Unknown Caller) which I actually found pretty good and entertaining.
Jeremy's various impressions of celebrities are on point as always.
One of the positives that I come away with from this movie, is that Jeremy's Liam Neeson impression is actually pretty good!
It wasn't that the shoe fit her well, its that she had such abnormally small feet that the shoe was too tiny for anyone else to fit, yet it was falling off Cinderella's feet. Hense why her step-sisters had their heels and toes chopped off to try to fit in the small shoe while it was literally falling off Cinderella's extra tiny feet.
Bad Ending ruined the whole movie.
No one to fight, so he used the Punching Bag at the beginning.

this is one of the most hilarious reviews you have pulled off
One good thing about this movie is this review. I may never see this movie but I will re-watch Jeremy's review of it. It's gold.
Saw Liam on the poster with that pose and instantly knew what rating this movie was getting.
Thanks for asking, I really enjoyed Barbie. I was impressed how it avoided going for lazy tropes of screen writing\movies.
This review had me on my ass laughing the whole time. Jesus!!! Thanks Jeremy.
The Cinderella theory is one of the funniest things I’ve seen in these reviews😂😂

Jeremy, you're Liam impression was spot on!
A movie so good I never even got a single trailer for it. Or heard of it.
On God that's crazy
I have seen the trailer a few times...
Fun Fact: Liam Neeson was paid $2 million to make this film.
I love Jeremy content on reviewing movies and giving us all his intake. Either worth watching or just don’t bother.
Liam: I don’t care anymore, this paid for the remodeling project of my kitchen
Actually, Retribution is the third remake of the Spanish thriller "El desconocido". The South Korean and the German remakes already were major step downs in quality from the original which was well cast and suspenseful.
That Liam Neeson impression with the phone call about why he made this film was SPECTACULAR.
Please more of this "uncensored Jeremy" style of review like when this channel started.
"You ever try to weight yourself sideways? It doesnt really work."
Funny stuff.
Possibly the best/most entertaining review ever.
Has anyone notice Liam Neeson spent more time on the phone in the movies he’s in lol 😂
When I first saw the trailer for this film the first thing that came to mind, as it related to the core theme of this film, was a social experiment. Hopefully, the film won't be that bad when I watch it.
Wont lie; movies like this make it really hard for me to give a crap about the screenwriters guild
Think of just how many of them are striking, and this movie, of ALLLLLLL the things that have been written by those same crowds, was amongst the cream that rose to the top.
i watched it and thought it was ok, i liked the twist at the end, I didn't see it coming
Same
Thanks for being ethical and putting up the spoilers warning.. some jack ass reviewers just dont give it.. i want to watch this movie
