Don’t wanna be a stickler, just something that stuck in my brain when i went to watch it last night. Got almost halfway through and stopped(just cuz I was tired, the movie’s actually REALLY cool!) In less than the first 45 minutes of the movie he’s referred to as “Hex” 4 times and “Mr. Hex” twice. So he’s not strictly known by his full name.

It’s Official!! Megan Fox can’t act! Unless she does something drastically to her movie career. I’m afraid her 15 minutes of fame soon up

Almost makes “Constanine” an Oscar winner. DC/Warners has a black eye from this dropped ball. Green Lantern better hit it out of the park! A shame, a great comic characterr that deserved a better treatment.

This should have been an HBO mini-series or series. All I could think of when watching the trailers is that it looked a hell of allot like Ghost Rider, and that was not a good thing. I’m just glad I spent my money on Toy Story 3.

I won’t see anything with megan fox in it. She puts everything she’s in right in the crapper. I agree Brolin usually rocks.

The movie looked like a music video. Poor directing and writing is definitely what destroyed this movie. I had high hopes and then they were lower after the trailer, and they were even lower after seeing the film. I hope Brolin bounces back from this (which I know he will)

The frustrating thing about a film like this is that the potential is there for an enjoyable movie.It has solid source material, a lead actor close to perfect for the title role, and a nice hook/gimmick (ie: action-based western with slight supernatural bent) that sets it apart from other films.

Yet somewhere ……. it goes wrong. They overplay the supernatural bent. They add a hard rockin soundtrack and squeeze the latest hollywood tits’n’ass into a period costume. Essentially, these three things kill off the cool western vibe of the property. In addition to this, we get a clumsy plot, disjointed writing, weaponary that Gi Joe would consider rediculous,and a villain who only shows up so he can cash his check and then piss himself laughing while waiting for the next Eragon movie to be made.

Jonah Hex had potential. It was squandered.

I wanna see Brolin’s performance in this, but I don’t wanna waste my money on the REST of the movie :P
Guess I’ll just wait a couple years until it’s on TV (with most of the movie edited out)…

In reply to Matt Keith. It's called counterprogramming.

I may check this out when it comes on HBO or TBS. I can tell this film is gonna bomb. Seriously, opening against Toy Story 3? What were they thinking?
