Favorites: The Good (10 movies items)

" Robert Downey Jr. - Dan Dark I don't know if he's really a good character. He's his own worst enemy. Half the time its hard to care if he recovers, but in his mind, he's a hero and it's cool to watch. When he was in the hospital with his condition, he was paranoid, mean spirited and scathing, thoroughly unpleasant, and I thoroughly enjoyed it. In his his fantasy, he is the singing detective. Confident, debonaire, gun wielding, arm twisting and prone to break out into lip syncing 50's pop"

Master Downey (Robert Downey Jr.) :D (47 movies items)

"31 as Dan Dark Downey is ferociously good, filled with rage and scorching the paint off the walls, and it's disturbing. "Yeah, Downey is great in this; he goes from a sick, vicious, venomous invalid in the first half to a slightly-less sick, more charming, more frightening nut case in the second half. More frightening, as he becomes less insane? Absolutely. In the first half of the movie, you know what he will do--he's going to break every bone in your body, if he could just get past the pai"

"Watched: 13.7. Ugh they should've left the musical part out. But anyway it was really good and one of a kind. Downey Jr was so awesome and Jon Polito and Adrien Brody did really nice work too. "

"Watched: 13.7. First I have to ask, why the hell this is called a musical?! Yeah, in movie were a few songs, which none of the actors themselves don't sing, except Robert Downey Jr. in the credits. And even if this is a musical, the big question is, why on earth. I don't understand at all why the songs had been messed on this. I know that these are Downey Jr. character's

Bml93's Film Diary for 2012 (272 movies items)

"@ DVD "What I say is, when you're dealing with the devil, praise the Lord... and pass the ammunition." And the first film of the year turns out to be rather weak. Robert Downey Jr. gives a fine performance in a film adaption of a TV-show. I don't know anything about the show, but after witnessing this film, I've no interest in looking it up. While the concept might be clever, it's just a disjointed mess and I'm no fan of lip-syncing. 4/10 Featured list: Robert Downey Jr. - Best to Worst - Ac"
