brooklyn-de-106-924826 First I am surprised the movie had a budget of 1.5 million dollars without any hi-fi's.,.The story is good, the main character played well! For those who love nude scenes, they will be happy with sudden appearance of actress Aria London great naked boobs covering entire screen in the swimming pool!!! Hard to see :)
Mims I think Ace is genius in all ways and this movie is no exception.For all these crappy reviews,(and reviewers) people just don't seem to understand how he thinks. To make a movie with funds raised by fans is no small feat! So resembling his life and true hardships. Loved it! Love the Ace Man.......👊👍
ithinkmyemailaddressis ' ' ' Yeah! One of the few movies I've had laugh-out-loud moments in, for years.Carolla really nails the mid-life crisis moments of a career gone off the rails, slowly, inexorably, unexplainably, or really never having one, as one turns the corner in life to realize it ain't gonna happen. Every man will recognise Carolla's character, sack-kicks, the humiliation and smile to themselves. The smoking/credit card scene is worth the price of admission.They don't make movies like this anymore—Although they just did, eh?—as it's just a decent story, with good character development.John Candy used do flicks like this, that didn't do box-office boffo, but were just good little flicks.I think this'll do a lot better in rotation, than it did in the theatres.It's for a different audience than your action-oriented fan but well worth the time.SweetDoug
justinchend I love Ace. I am one of donors in the credits of this movie.Man, was this movie disappointing. And listening to Adam complain about critics' reviews is incredibly frustrating. (The LA Times's review, for example, is spot on. Negative reviews have nothing to do with Ace's politics.) A few illustrative points: 1. Show vs. Tell. Everywhere The Hammer succeeded -- construction, boxing, career frustration, romance, physical training -- it worked because the movie demonstrated those themes, without "telling" the viewer about the themes. Not so with Road Hard. Bruce was frustrated with his career; he describes his frustration. Bruce thinks he's funny; he says he's funny. Bruce can't stand his ex-wife; he says he can't stand his ex-wife. And so forth. The one exception to this is the nice conceit in which Bruce's stand-up routine is a voice-over for an actual on-the-road encounter with a motel receptionist.2. Baby Doll. Oh, do I love Larry Miller. Oh, is this character lacking. In everything. It is a bad parody of bad showbiz agent parodies.3. Diane Farr Romance. Not one part of this relationship was believable. From the way Farr's character off-handedly notes her first husband's death (?!?), to Bruce's heretofore unmentioned passion for woodworking upon his arrival at her workshop, to the climax of the movie ... it felt awfully rushed, like all the real exposition was on the cutting room floor.4. Bruce. Question: is he the hero of this movie? Meaning, are we cheering for him? If yes, that's a problem, because he's a terrible person. This is the central hang-up in the movie. He treats his friends badly, his fans badly, and his potential employers badly. Then bitches about it. Daily listeners to Ace know it's obvious he loves his friends and family, and they know his other redemptive qualities. Bruce has none of them. His pure bitterness culminates in the dead-on-arrival, needlessly hateful line he gives to the homosexual casting agent. THIS is joke that makes the whole movie sink, for a lot of the reviewers. It may as well have been Bruce saying, "Shut up, faggot." It missed, by a long ways.Others: the music was off, the stand-up felt like filler, and the reference to DAG's brilliant Teddy Pendegrast routine was limply presented.All that said, I'll donate to the next venture.
