This episode was originally posted in August 2011, and this re-edited version runs 1m 22s shorter than the original, with the usual cuts to film clips and tightening up the pacing. This re-post is obviously to tie into the new version of Murder on the Orient Express, where Johnny Depp takes another fateful train journey. I've always really liked this episode, and I hope you do too!

Gotta love a millionaire actor/actress who takes a role to get a free trip to Venice. It's not like they could ever get there on their own dime.

"What they blow their money on, _hotels?!"_ Apparently so.

I got the impression from the script that Depps character was more interested in seeing if Jolies character was in love with him or the money not to mention he had spent so much time pretending to be the friend and employee of the mobster that she never really got to know the real him to begin with. When they met it was a time of high stress where both of them were under the constant threat of death and both had there own schemes and were pretending to be people that they were not naturally. He wanted to see how she would react to an exaggerated version of his normal personality. Kind of like Superman wanting to make sure Lois Lane loves Clark Kent and not just his Superman persona. I am not saying they succeeded it just feels like that is what they were trying to do.

I find this movie a little more interesting if you take it that Johnny Depp's character wasn't actually Alexander, and just used what he figured out about the man and his own math skills to take his place.

I kinda feel like Paul Bettany and Rufus Sewell both signed onto this movie just to have an A Knight's Tale reunion in Venice.

If you're going to cast an actor like Timothy Dalton you'd better make damn good use of him.

I used to think that Depp and Jolie were British. I learned that they're not, but all the characters they play are.

10:43 I like how they felt the need to subtitle that, as if English speakers wouldn't understand that.

How did she know his height when he is sitting down.

Why do the words, “North by Northwest” cross my mind watching this?

Wait a minute, a man encounters a woman on a train, man goes on the run because of a case of mistaken identity, woman turns out to be a secret agent. Y'know something, that kinda sounds similar to the plot in _North by Northwest._

How this got nominated for the Golden Globe for Best Comedy still befuddles me.

Alexander's actions with Elise (i.e., pretending to be Frank even when alone) might make sense if he's trying to confirm that she could still fall in love with him, despite his new face. (Or, conversely, he's trying to see how faithful she will be when confronted with the temptation of "Frank.")

I agree: there's not enough Timothy Dalton in this movie!

Frank's character was developed to be played by Rob Schneider. Watch as was played by him and see how it all makes sense. And the man delivering all the letters played by Adam Sandler.

I haven't seen many of the movies showcased in BMB, but this is one of the exceptions. Saw it with my dad on his recommendation and was appalled at the number of plot holes and terrible 'twists.' Also, can you imagine if someone else on the train just happened to be similar to Alexander in looks and she picked him instead?

Hearing Depp's attempt at an English accent in this movie makes me that much more worried about the upcoming adaptation of The Invisible Man with him as the lead (as if I didn't have enough reasons to be concerned).

When are you reviewing Collateral Beauty? I know Brad suggested it.

I kid you not I knew nothing about this movie coming into it but the instant the character instructed her to pick a man about his height and build I figured out what the twist would be, it's that obvious. This is the kind of thing that would be played for laughs in a cartoon for young children.

your pronounciation of the director wasn't too bad

4:58 Paul Bettany can do whatever the hell he wants!

Bad Movie Beatdown is so great.

Yo bro love the videos both new and old, keep up the good fight!

Loved Johnny Depp as Jack Sparrow and Paul Bettany as Vision

Jolie hated working on this I can tell. She really needs to go Wanted on the filmmakers.

I think 2010 was the year Johnny Depp truly went downhill, with this and Alice. Before, he played actual characters and not every one of them was a weird invention, though Charlie and the Chocolate Factory was a foreshadow of what to come. Public Enemies was the last time I liked seeing him onscreen (I have yet to see Black Mass but I heard he’s great in it so good for him). He used to be one of my favorite actors. Now, I’m just tired of him. He’s late-career-Brando-ing it. He needs a few years to get his crap together and do the kind of stuff we loved him for in the 90s.

Looking at this film, It feels that Deep & Jolie are on autopilot.

4:43 it looks like that hasn't changed looking forward to seeing him in Doom Patrol

are there any new BMB, or are they all just re-uploads now?

Hugh Jackman was a substitute teacher and Jon Hamm taught 8th grade

2:10 -2:19 Confused of what they're zooming in on? There's nothing there..

1:23 Whoa, whoa, whoa. Christopher McQuarrie co-wrote this? What is with this guy going between writing Edge Of Tomorrow and the the recently great Mission Impossible movies to duds like this, and The Mummy?

6:21 oh, come on, they could have at least made him an ART teacher of some kind, that would have been WAY more believable. (This was also one of my favorite BMBs too! Nice to see it up here on YT)

That's was the dullest film ive seen in years.

@Film Brain I have never seen this movie - but just watching your review, and with no screen writing expertise to my name - Even I could have formulated a far better plot twist than the one the film went with... Whats really bad about that though is that you wouldn't really have needed to change anything but the end of the movie!!! AND I MEAN THE VERY END!!! You even pointed out - Rufus Sewell as the Obvious Red Herring - But WHAT A TWIST - Actually, He isn't! and its HIM thats been feeding Johnny Depp Instructions... So teh end has Sewell and Jolie on the boat and because the twist was hidden behind a twist of Depp being the Protagonist all teh way along when he wasn't... You been double bluffed and BOOM - Far Better Movie!!!

Thanks for giving another movie to compare to the TTG to the movies.

I JUST watched this movie for the first time and I was speechless at the end!!! It was so deliciously awful that I couldn't tear my eyes away. I would rewind certain parts just to make sure I actually saw ( or didn't see) what I saw. I was shocked that a lot of film critics actually went soft and kind on this train wreck of a movie! I thought I was loosing my mind listening to the likes of Ben Mankiewicz say it did what it did well. Then I found your review. My sanity has been restored! You mentioned all the LAME parts that anyone with half a brain was awestruck by in an awful way. I must have played that awful, slow motion, rooftop chase, followed by the leap off the balcony into the fruit stand three times... I just couldn't believe my eyes. Then the zero chemistry dance scene was agony!?!? I was embarrassed for them both! This may be one of my favorite "awful" movies of all times!!! And WHAT? It was nominated for a Golden Globe award?? Imissed that whole chapter in movie history. Thank you for this review, my faith in humanity has been restored.

Well yeah, that's what we expected

Your videos have way too much rewatchability value.

7.8/10, not enough Timothy Dalton

Maybe I watched too much Nip/Tuck in the past - but when he said the twist was obivous, I was like - I dunno know I think it's at least funny that Angelina turns out to be the dude ... at least than it would've made sense that she gets a letter to pick out a random dude.

22:43 It looked very passionate, actually 🤣🤣🤣, not necessarily pervy.

I think he wanted her to fall in love with him again just to see if he could get her to fall in love again.

Is that you doing that Italian accent?

This Is a parfum comercial hell

*As they set up the Pierce had plastic surgery* ... I'm sorry but how great would it of been if it was Jolie's character that was Pierce post plastic surgery? XD Edit: I dunno, I'm barely paying attention. XD

Do we ever see a helicopter on the screen in this flick? I ask because I like helicopters.

I came up with a much better twist for this movie. Frank wasn't Alexander Pierce. He really was just some random American Tourist who wound up in this complicated situation. Pierce was actually Elise who not only had extensive plastic surgery done to hide her identity but also underwent sex-reassignment surgery to become a woman. It would be a twist no one would see coming.

If you want to pick someone to play an ordinary guy, you probably shouldn't get the guy who played a neurotic lizard, a man so deep in drugs his mind is 100% gone, and the Mad Hatter.

Review Knight and Day

10:05 mipiehediondo -schneider

If you think of the film of a 1950's movie in a modern day, it really doesn't seem that bad. But if you account for, idk years of development, cleverer writing, new production standards, and well the 2010s being saturated with HUGE action flicks such as fast and the furious, transformers, aswell as 007. Yeah its a pretty bad movie. But I think the more correct term would be "outdated." aswell as slow.

They've certainly oozed sensuality in other movies. This script just gave them absolutely nothing to work with.

Two charesmatic actors in a film together and the directors fuck it up

Charade is in public domain. You can watch it for free and not pay for this travesty.

100 million? That' s insane what the hell? Ist just people talking most of the time. Imagine what you could do with that kind of money. This actually makes me sick a little.

Depp's career hasn't been great in the 2010s.

Hey Mr. Matthew Buck. Spoiler Alert! You’re going to lose most of your hair 10 years into the future and give a bad teeny bopper movie high marks.

johnny depps english accent sounded British to me

You know that amore... Will bomb. Whew, and it sure did bomb.

Depp arrived from 09 on a rainbow of hope, but the 2010s blew it all up in smoke!

They're trying to recreate the feel of a movie from the 50s/60s, but unfortunately none of the current 'stars' in Hollywood have an ounce of the charisma of Cary Grant or Audrey Hepburn. Why does Johnny Depp always sound like he's putting on a fake accent? And as for Jolie, I've still never actually watched a movie of hers, and I don't think I ever will.

Longest intro ever!

I found brain, I'm taking time to write this comment my football game real football not your silly little soccer is on commercial break and I just wanted to say hi and hope you're having a fantastic day. I will comment on this video once I've watched it fully and I'm pretty sure I will enjoy it. Back to my college football game you have a wonderful day.

I agree Johnny Depp’s weird

I can see where you are coming from but I think perhaps you miss the point of the film.

Johnny Depp...World's Sexiest Man? ...I don't see it. :/

I didn't even know about a twist. I fell asleep after 7 minutes. I was so bored with this piece of shit, I didn't care.

1:15 Even as a Cruise fan Knight and Day is pretty weak [noticeably a pre-fame Gal Gadot has a cameo] and is a poor effort from Logan director James Mangold. More than 12 writers [!] contributed to the lackluster script. 1:43 I guess Christopher McQuarrie did a pass on the script when Tom Cruise was going to do it as he has on many of his films [He wasn't too fond of 'The Mummy' but worked on it out of loyalty]

After this movie's appalling box office, I'm honestly shocked that even the glacial Hollywood brain trust didn't put together that "star power" had lost almost all of its influence.

Oh well, Matt, at least you got to briefly see the sexiness that is Rufus Sewell and his soul stealing eyes. Bad as it is, I probably would watch this if not for Jolie being in it. I REALLY cannot stand her. I can't put my finger on why. Just something about her is like nails on a chalkboard for me. And no, it's not jealousy. I can't be jealous of someone who's french kissed her own brother, slept with a married man, then later was cheated on by that same man - a man with a reputation for not bathing daily. And anyway, it's the same feeling I get whenever I see Benidict Cumberbatch - just find him unwatchable. So again, not jealousy. Just something about Jolie turns me right off.

Yeah... I enjoyed this film. Yes, from the moment you see Depp, you know he might be involved with the shebang or he is the guy they are searching for (maybe it's just me). All in all, it's an OK movie.

Angelina Jolie has only bad movies attached to her name.
