Nah. Gotta look at this from a positive perspective. Every horrible thing about this film is simply one more nail in the coffin of Halle Berry's career. If it tanks badly (and we're talking Ishtar level badly), perhaps I won't have to see her stumble her way through roles ever again. I shudder to think of the endless Jinx previes we may yet have to endure.
But seriously, lifting the lines verbatim did irk me a little. I'm sure it's only the first thing about the film that's been lifted from a better one.
If you found vol. 1 boring, you'll probably want to wait until video to watch vol. 2. It seems that the films either work for someone or they don't. If the first part didn't work for you, the second probably won't either. Wait until you can catch them both together in a setting where you can fast forward if need be. I liked 'em, but taste is arbitrary.
No way...why didn't you tell me sooner, I could have asked James about it this weekend. Now I won't see him again until August. When does it come out?!
