An average movie

Of course, I wasn't expecting much before watching this flick and I pretty much got what I expected. Indeed, apparently, Jerry Bruckheimer didn’t want to only focus on some huge brainless blockbusters but, apparently, at some point, he decided he should also produce something without any explosions but still completely brainless but also slightly exploitative. I call it ‘slightly’ exploitative because even though the poster and the trailer tease you and make you believe you're going to see some hot chicks, the end result was eventually rather harmless and innocent. So, that was already disappointing but, to make things worse, the plot was just very predictable and completely forgettable. Anyway, the most interesting thing was to see, for all the girls involved, how their career eventually evolved. Piper Perabo, who was just starting at the time, was supposed to become pretty huge after this movie but it never really happened even though she recently managed to have some decent TV success with ‘Covert Affairs’. Concerning Tyra Banks, back then she thought she could become an actress which was rather pathetic and a few years later, she would launch ‘America's Next Top Model’, a dead horse she will keep beating until the end of time. Concerning Izabella Miko, she was the least known in this group and she has been involved in some rather obscure flicks ever since. Concerning Bridget Moynahan, this movie launched her career and she even flirted with the A list for a while but, recently, she hasn’t done anything really interesting. Finally, Maria Bello was easily the best actress involved, also pretty much starting up career here and she became much more interesting as the years went by. Anyway, coming back to our main feature, to conclude, even though it could have been worse, I thought it was still pretty weak, my rating is probably too generous and I don’t think it is worth a look.
