Thanks! - tederick Thu, 14 Jun 2007 11:28:26 +0100 http://www.rcreader.com/movies/my-eyes-are-on/#comment-226 Geesh!...so, let me try to summarize the prevailing "comment logic" here as 'If you aren't half as good looking as Orlando Bloom you have no right to criticize his film acting'. OKAY, well then, speaking AS SOMEONE WHO IS EVERY BIT AS DARN GOOD LOOKING as Orland Bloom, I have to say that I agree wholeheartedly with Mike Schulz's critique of him; moreover, I am now greatly relieved because during the entire film (which I very much enjoyed!) every time Bloom moped about I felt annoyed by the same vague gut feeling that I had while watching Hayden Christenson in the Star Wars franchise---and now I can understand why! And finally, since we're all such excellent judges of male beauty, I can say that I believe Mr. Schulz _is_ indeed half as good looking as Orlando Bloom and thus, by the aforesaid logic of sundry annoyed commentators and by other myriad powers granted to me by me, I say that he has every right to criticize. ---SD - SteveD Tue, 05 Jun 2007 14:34:47 +0100 http://www.rcreader.com/movies/my-eyes-are-on/#comment-222 The Jack's appearance was so boring!!! God, multiple jacks?? so scary... Orlando was great, Keira was fine... though too much about her, but Geoffrey was marvelous!!! The best scene was the wedding, just splendid!!! This critic about Orlando more seems that of a whiny child jealous of a better one. - Annariel Fri, 01 Jun 2007 09:56:25 +0100 http://www.rcreader.com/movies/my-eyes-are-on/#comment-221 Please don't be a critic to someone who is 10000 times better looking than you!!! I will be honest I am a big fan of Orlando if you have not guessed I think he is the most dreamy guy in the world. I being somewhat of a critic myself noticed that his performance was not flawless but I thought Orlando’s act was not horrid I thought it was great! Besides, any mistake he makes is covered by his flawless looks. I love you Orlando!!! - Kaylen Thu, 31 May 2007 17:19:58 +0100 http://www.rcreader.com/movies/my-eyes-are-on/#comment-220 who cares orlando is freakin hot as hell :P - bre Thu, 31 May 2007 13:49:31 +0100 http://www.rcreader.com/movies/my-eyes-are-on/#comment-219 You critics have to find fault with every little thing don't you? Orlando Bloom is a fantastic actor whos character actually evolves over the course of the films. Unlike Captain Sparrow who stays the same. I'd like to see YOU do a better job than Orlando in this film and any of his other ones. (And if you found At World's End confusing, perhaps you should go watch it and number 2 again and actually pay attention to the story this time instead of picking fault with one of the actors. - Charlotte Thu, 31 May 2007 12:43:40 +0100 http://www.rcreader.com/movies/my-eyes-are-on/#comment-217 What exactly were you expecting from Orlando Bloom in this film? Or any of the films? When an actor is given the task of playing straight man/romantic lead next to Johnny Depp's insanely inspired Captain Jack it's an unprecedented challenge. Orlando Bloom played Will Turner brilliantly and just as he should have. POTC.3 is where Will truly started to shine and embrace the character. He was not supposed to be another Captain Jack. He was supposed to be the romantic lead/straight man and he did it quite well. - Mariah Thu, 31 May 2007 07:48:02 +0100 http://www.rcreader.com/movies/my-eyes-are-on/#comment-216 I have to disagree. I being a mild fan of Orlando (yes..he is gorgeous and yes sometimes he really irritates me in a film) thought he did a fine job with the character arch of Will Turner. He was stuffy and uptight in P1. In P2 he was trying to make his way, starting to wheel and deal, if albeit stupidly with inexperience. And by P3, he really was getting the hang of "thinking like Jack". What I DID find annoying was the love story triangle revisited. Everyone knows Elizabeth sent Jack to the Locker as a way to save Will. Enough about Elizabeth really having any true feelings for Jack. Her true feelings were torn between doing the right thing, and like any other spoilt brat..getting her own way. SHE annoys me entirely. She's too angsty as her role as Elizabeth, too whiny. Everything is an issue for her. I get that the entire trilogy was mainly about her arch..about what she became, not who she was going to "wind up with", but I think the person with the most complete character arch was in fact Will Turner. Any actor, given the same material, would have been the same as Orlando's performance. It was fine, and credit is given where it is justly due. About the multiple Jacks. I felt like I really lost a good portion of my life when I was watching that scene..and the dreadlock hanging Jack scenes. They were information fillers only. It was annoying and unneeded. Not enough is said about Bill Nighy I'm afraid. He is AMAZING. Davy Jones was so complete in this film, and the parallel between the Davy and Calypso/Will and Elizabeth story is undaunting. There was only one true choice for who is to be the next Dutchman Captain. I was a huge Jack fan going into the third film, and came out a big Will/Elizabeth supporter. I was completely happy with the plot, yes it had some holes, but don't all films? Like someone recently explained to me, film, like any other art..is open for interpretation. - Melissa Thu, 31 May 2007 03:31:49 +0100 http://www.rcreader.com/movies/my-eyes-are-on/#comment-215 I think Orlando did a great job of the tragic hero at least he and Keira had more to do this movie than run around screaming like the last pirates. They killed the wrong man Depp should have gone to Davey's Locker instead. - David Thu, 31 May 2007 00:08:55 +0100 http://www.rcreader.com/movies/my-eyes-are-on/#comment-214 looks like someone's jealous much. just cuz your not even half as good looking as Orlando Bloom doesn't give you the right to talk trash about him. I thought he did great. - ya mom Wed, 30 May 2007 19:43:56 +0100 http://www.rcreader.com/movies/my-eyes-are-on/#comment-213 i'm confused! how can Orlando be condemned and the rest of the actors and actresses be praised? orli is far better than half of the actors on this movie why is he always so heavily criticized? poor orli! ali x - ali Wed, 30 May 2007 16:31:38 +0100 http://www.rcreader.com/movies/my-eyes-are-on/#comment-212 I liked the review - nicely done - although I do think there was more to Will then you gave him and you must admit when he comes back to fight that battle with Captain Jack - it was great!!!! Goodbye Beckett! Looking for more of Captain Jack Sparrow that only Johnny Depp can do! - Valerie Wed, 30 May 2007 14:47:54 +0100 http://www.rcreader.com/movies/my-eyes-are-on/#comment-210 No, let's face the fact that Pirates is the best to come along in a long time. Spiderman is good but not as Great as Pirates so that's why it did this well. Pirates = Amazing. Stupid Critics. Why do we even have critics anyway? All they do now is tell us the audience how stupid we all are for liking what we like and try and force boring ass movies down our throats. Stupid elitists. - KaizokuSanji Wed, 30 May 2007 12:25:40 +0100 http://www.rcreader.com/movies/my-eyes-are-on/#comment-209 I thought the movie was great. Not confusing at all and very funny. But I don't see why Bloom's performance is being criticized in such a negative way. He played out his character Turner accordingly and that was that. What could any other actor have done differently if they'd been in his shoes??? Everybody should just see this or any other movie with one goal in mind. To be entertained and not nit-pick! - Diana Wed, 30 May 2007 12:15:16 +0100 http://www.rcreader.com/movies/my-eyes-are-on/#comment-208 Blah blah blah. Doesn't the endless Orlando Bloom bashing get old? Ask the fans of the movie if they like him in it and I believe you will get an overwhelming YES. And we matter more than you. Thanks. - None of your business Wed, 30 May 2007 11:04:02 +0100 http://www.rcreader.com/movies/my-eyes-are-on/#comment-207 Don't be so obviously jealous Mike. Orlando was awesome in this film, far better and more improved than in the last two films. He made the ending awesome. Don't get pissy just because he's better looking than you. - Ricky Wed, 30 May 2007 10:33:51 +0100 http://www.rcreader.com/movies/my-eyes-are-on/#comment-206 Lets face it Spiderman series are better then pirates series (Spiderman 3,Pirates 2 stank). But star wars is the best of all........... - Luke skywalker Wed, 30 May 2007 09:19:33 +0100
