Not perfect but it's fun to watch especially with Fraser
1 June 2023
I can see why people didn't like it but I can't say I don't. First the cast; Brendan Fraser as the title character playing his character as silly but good hearted and laughably stupid at times but good effort from Fraser. Sarah Jessica Parker is good playing a so-called intelligent damsel in distress and other times snobbish to Dudley and the great Alfred Molina playing Snidely whiplash in a actual good performance by the actor showing sometimes when you get a role, it doesn't mean you can't have fun with it. Molina shows he was having a ball in his role; going from his mustache and good timing with the jokes too. I don't know who was narrating the film but I liked how funny the narration was and the inconsistencies with the story when at times you wonder where it's going and then it goes in different directions. Yes it is a silly film, might not even be Citizen Kane level but I say it's fun, it's for kids, and it's another reason why Fraser and Molina are among the most talented actors working today. I recommend it bc if you want a good laugh and something to turn your brain off on then this film is right for you.
