I wanted to like that movie so much more than I actually did, big disappointment.

I don't know how that movie idea was pitched and greenlit. It wasn't even trying to be semi original like have a black guy and a white guy or and old guy and a young guy or gay guy and a straight guy it was just like "hey two good looking white guys switch bodies".

I'm not interested in most of his movies, but I've watched a few on video. The one with Sandra Bullock was good, but of course it was a Sandra Bullock movie. Waiting was OK, but he wasn't the best part of it.

I think the movie I like the most is Definitively Maybe.

I think the story was supposed to be all over the place. Anyway, I think this is my favorite of all his roles. He was also pretty decent in "The Proposal" with Sandy Bullock. I generally think he's just "ok" and nothing special.

HATED him in "Green Lantern". I just watched it again and although it got a little better on second viewing, RR still sucks in the way he played Hal.

I meant in quality...I liked the structure very much..but it's quality was everywhere.

I think he was going to be a fine Hal..too bad the story sucked pretty hard.
