You know, I had planned to come in here Friday morning to post a little extra commentary and totally spaced it off. It’s now early Friday evening and I feel like a total moron.
Indulge me, won’t you, as I fill in some copy before I go out with my wife for a riotous night of pizza, beer and bowling?
I’ll be up front and admit that, yeah – Be Cool looked kind of good to me. Of course, the reviews coming back haven’t been very kind. I guess I don’t know why that surprises me. As much as I often enjoy watch John Travolta smear his charm across the screen, he’s been in a steady decline for a while now.
I think I was probably less interested in watching Travolta this time around than I was at watching some of the secondary characters. Vince Vaughn, The Rock, Harvey Keitel, Steven Tyler…

Are you kidding" Did you know John Travolta and Uma Thurman dance together on screen for the first time since 1994?
That's worth the price of admission along!
Remember them in Pulp Fiction? All sultry and super-cool?
Now imagine them fatter and with more wrinkles!
I don't see why Hollywood won't revisit on-screen team-ups people actually want to see...'
Like what?
Like Ben Stiller and that dog that latched onto his crotch in There's Something About Mary.
We need more of that.
It's just like old times again!
