Lumsdal Good , But It Is Overrated By Some
CrawlerChunky In truth, there is barely enough story here to make a film.
Rio Hayward All of these films share one commonality, that being a kind of emotional center that humanizes a cast of monsters.
Jonah Abbott There's no way I can possibly love it entirely but I just think its ridiculously bad, but enjoyable at the same time.
alindsay-al I like Gerard butler, I like Jennifer aniston so I should have liked the bounty hunter. But boy this film is awful and really really hard to watch. The premise of this film sees a bounty hunter sent out to capture a felon and bring her to prison but it turns out to be his ex wife. Now as I said I like butler and he was the beat thing about this movie as he had a couple of funny moments. But his character was very one dimensional and you won't care about him because the film gives you absolutely no reason to care about him. Jeniffer aniston is the same, their chemistry is pretty good but her character has very few likable characteristics for you to like her. I am a fan of Jason sudekis but he did not have one funny moment in this film and I hope he isn't remembered for this performance. Also the villains have nothing to them and I'm not even sure they were necessary for this film. The story of this film is really bland, it is just a simple road trip film and you have seen everything here before. It provides nothing new and no excitement at all. The script is bad the comedy just doesn't hit. I don't remember laughing at anybody in this film. Also the dramatic moments are really forced in the film and you won't care about any of them. The style is as cliché as possible, it is your road trip film and it does nothing to make it interesting. Also the action scenes have absolutely nothing to them. Overall this is a terrible movie that should not be seen.
Python Hyena The Bounty Hunter (2010): Dir: Andy Tennant / Cast: Gerard Butler, Jennifer Aniston, Gio Perez, Christine Baranski, Jason Sudeikis: Routine romantic comedy about reconciliation, which viewers may need from the filmmakers. Gerard Butler plays a former cop turn bounty hunter who accepts a case to bring in his wife, who fled court. She had a parking violation, which she appeared for until a serious story took off that needed her attention. She is played by Jennifer Aniston and she is working on a suicide case until one of her associates is kidnapped. Central plot regards Butler's struggle to drag Aniston to jail and the constant bickering. It isn't difficult to see where it is headed. Directed by Andy Tennant who has made better films than this. Hitch and Ever After: A Cinderella Story are more ambitious Tennant titles. Both Butler and Aniston are subdued in formula writing. After their initial introductions they are thrown into action scenes and shouting matches that eventually land in a conclusion that is meant to be intelligent but comes off as cheap. Gio Perez plays Aniston's snitch who spends most of the film locked in a closet. Christine Baranski is underused as her mother who has a love hate relationship with Butler. Jason Sudeikis plays Aniston's co-worker who is more into her than the screenwriter was when it came to writing this crap. The film regards marriage and regret and to some degree viewers may relate to the gender war presented but it fails to go beyond being a morbid romantic tease. Perhaps the only bounty that should have been issued would be on a better screenwriter. Score: 4 / 10
namashi_1 'The Bounty Hunter', despite its clichés & minute flaws, is A Throughly Enjoyable Rom-Com! Its got the energy & the pace one expects from it & its lead-stars share some great on-screen chemistry.'The Bounty Hunter' Synopsis: A bounty hunter learns that his next target is his ex-wife, a reporter working on a murder cover-up. Soon after their reunion, the always-at-odds duo find themselves on a run-for-their-lives adventure.'The Bounty Hunter' is an entertaining fare. Sure, the clichés are foreseeable & there are some flaws here, especially in the film's tepid initial moments, but the pace gathers momentum & the fun quotient powers up. I wasn't bored here, in fact, I laughed at many parts.Sarah Thorp's Screenplay is brisk, though it begins on a dull note. Andy Tennant's Direction is pretty decent. Cinematography is eye-filling. Editing is tight. Action-Sequences are average.Performance-Wise: Jennifer Aniston & Gerard Butler are the life of 'The Bounty Hunter'. Both of the talented actors play their parts very well & share a great on-screen chemistry throughout. A Special Mention for the terrific Jason Sudeikis, who's truly funny in a supporting role.On the whole, 'The Bounty Hunter' may not be amazing, but its good, breezy entertainment nevertheless.
jenbalotar I had a high expectation on this movie but when I'm already watching it, i want to fast forward everything! It's full of running, shooting and dull moments between the two leading characters. Humor lines are not really funny. The plot is predictable: two couples got divorced then at the end fell in love again. I think Gerard Butler is not really for comedies. All throughout the film he has a strong facial expression not fit for a comedy film. Jennifer Aniston looks fine in the entire movie, she really portrayed well the character. I need to fast forward when Aniston and Butler are talking because the lines are predictable as i observed the development of the dialogue. I think Aniston saved the plot and Butler. I really like her as a comedian. So, I'm still giving it a 5.
