Movie Reviews of Man About Town
Movie Review: a pretty good one ruined by a ridiculous scenario
Summary: 3 Stars
it's a shame to see a screenplay simply ruined by a ridiculous insertion that ruined ben afleck's good performance. since when writing a diary or journal would become such a big fuss? to arrange a bad actress, bai ling, focused at, circled around, and concentrated on her plot to ruin the hottest talent agent in town is the worst scenario i've ever seen. if the screenplay writers have the least logic training, they should know that the adulterous betrayal of the talent agent's wife and his silent suffering devastation would be more than enough to touch viewers' hearts. the beginning and the ending parts were good, but the plot and the scenes of chinese restaurant negotiations, chasings by a chinese kitchen clan was so ridiculous and stupid, so stupid that beyond any word that i could describe.
ben afleck did a quite good job even in this lousy screenplay. as to his father's part and the whole chinese rip-off scenario, both should be omitted and rewritten before putting into production.
Summary of Man About Town
Successful hardworking and unscrupulous Jack is a Hollywood agent at the top of his game and completely out of kilter with his personal life. So he takes a self-help class and when word gets out becomes the focus of the gossip columns. Word travels fast...and so do the laughs.System Requirements:Run Time: 100 mins Format: DVD MOVIE Genre: COMEDY Rating: R UPC: 031398209157 Manufacturer No: 20915Similar DVD Movies
