Hey!!

Yup! ::waves:: I've been lazy lately, taking care of things and goofing off. :)

Woohoo!!

It's very silly -- there's a lot of slapstick and the characters are cartoony. But if you take it for what it is, it can be an amusing watch. Watching Jackie Chan do these complex manoeuvres while making it look like the suit is doing it -- that's neat to see.

Peter's part isn't that big: he's maybe in it for about 10 minutes if you add up the scenes together. Maybe more, I'm not sure. He plays a scientist and he's really cute in it, has these horn-rimmed glasses and his hair is all mussed... sticky-uppy. His character is fairly cartoony and he unfortunately... gets beat up by a girl! :) He's good in it, though, very cute.

Look for it on HBO or one of those if you have cable; or rent it. I don't know if I'd recommend buying it; I bought "Bad Boys II" before watching it and still have buyer's remorse! (Very short role in that, too.)

Hi, Cartooncheryl!

I apologize for this late response... After working hard for the past few months, I had finally gotten a little time to relax--only to get sick! What a way to pass my one week off. *Sigh*

Thanks for your info about the Tuxedo...

I have seen Jackie Chan in Rush Hour(1 and 2) at the insistence of a friend (he basically forced me to see it!). I was actually very impressed with him, considering he does his own stunts for the most part. Making the suit look like it's controlling him would be fun to see!

Rats, his part always seems to small, doesn't it? However, seeing him play a scientist might be well woth it... :)

Peter Stormare get beat up by a girl?! Hmmm, not sure if I still want to see it...just kidding! I'm glad his performance is good, for such a small role!

Thank you very much for the advice! I will probably rent it, as I do not have cable. I'm sorry to hear about "Bad Boys II"... I've had similar luck, mostly with music though.

Thank you again! I really appreciate it!
