If we're going to be fighting the war on terror in perpetuity, could we at least get better movies out of it?
Top CriticCohen undermines his own effort to make a 21st century Top Gun by using so many quick cuts and zooms that we can't even appreciate the action sequences. I almost got motion sickness.
It's not new. It's not interesting. I wish it would go away.
Aiming to join the Jerry BruckheimerJerry Bruckheimer/Michael BayMichael Bay school of American movie war games, Stealth is just too dumb to make the grade.
Stealth manages to be so ridiculously unconvincing you think you're watching a live-action version of last year's sublime action-movie puppet satire Team America.
Rob Cohen's airborne adventure Stealth commits the cardinal sin for an action movie: It's very, very dull.
...a crude Jerry Bruckheimer knock-off with a laughably insipid script...
Video game-like explosion movie -- too violent for little ones.
Memorable for being forgettable.
Neither entertaining nor exciting, the dumb and noisy Stealth will hopefully live up to its name by fading quietly from movie theaters.
It's basically the videogame version of Top Gun... on steroids!
Undoubtedly a perfect example of everything that's wrong with contemporary action flicks, although the movie isn't quite as bad as it's been made out to be.
... a chocolate-coated mothball, tasty enough on the outside but unsafe to swallow...
Feel free to rent the thing one bored Tuesday night, but don't come crying to me if Stealth makes your brain hurt.
Four hours of special features explain what should have been explained in the film...The Doc "Harnessing Speed" was fantastic, and the featurette of the music was exciting, too.
