Very very predictable, including the post credit scene !!!

Like the great film, it's made with a great deal of visible affection both in front of and behind the camera.

I enjoyed watching this film and would recommend other to give it a try , (as I am) but this movie, although enjoyable to watch due to the better than average acting fails to add anything new to its storyline that is all too familiar to these types of movies.

If you want to waste your time, let's watch this awful movie. There is not a big story with terrible casts. The director want to make some funny moments, but I think these moments become awkward. In the end of the movie they want to show us a knack in the story line. Simple looks like a wrong scenario. At all I can say if I need to pay to watch this movie in the cinema I would was very nervous because it is a worthless something whatever I saw. I felt like to see this in the television a weekdays. The TV set in the midnight and I do not want to go to bad so this is the only reason to watched this. Never again. I have got only one question. The producers why not watch what they sponsored, or they spent little amount of money and they did not care about box office?

Why am I rating this nearly mediocre movie so high? Because being different is worth something. The plot seemed to be unique to me. I get tired of the same old plots and plot devices, and this one seemed really strange in a good way, which more than made up for the obvious plot holes and pretty average acting. Some of the script lines were pretty entertaining too. Overall, a short film that I enjoyed because it was so unusual and weird, not because it was great or compelling art. My suggestion is that you're only risking 87 minutes, so you can give it a try, and if doesn't hold your attention, just cut it short. For me personally, it was an unconventional movie that happened to be a pleasant diversion.

The plot: When two very different groups of bank robbers target the same bank, a quirky hostage tries to mediate the conflict, as he finds clues suggesting a greater conspiracy.Flypaper certainly has its faults, but I think it makes up for them with its flashes of humor. The easiest way to describe it is Clue in a bank. Multiple heists go down at the same time, alongside a seemingly unrelated hit. Wacky hijinks follow, with all sorts of quirky characters acting quirky, in a quirky plot, probably written by a quirky author. The characters are all basically stereotypes, but since this is essentially a farce, one could easily argue that they're actually parodies of those stereotypes. The plot itself seems to flirt with constant homage to Clue alongside parody of heist movies. There are also a few references to other movies, such as This Is Spinal Tap.If you're looking for a deep or original movie, this really isn't it. But if you want something that's equal parts Die Hard, The Usual Suspects, and Clue... you're in luck! It was savaged by the critics, but I actually found it to be rather amusing, even if it was predictable and a re-hash of Clue.

¨It's like extra sad when a hot chick dies. When an ugly chick dies, it 's like, their life probably sucked anyway, so it's no big deal.¨The only thing Flypaper had going for it (beside my love for Ashley Judd) was that it was written by the screenwriters who brought us The Hangover, Jon Lucas and Scott Moore. Despite my love for The Hangover, I really hated the script here. I found the film incredibly stupid; the performances extremely over the top and the jokes didn't really work. Flypaper is a terrible comedy that makes any Adam Sandler movie look like a masterpiece. I thought the entire film was ridiculous and a mess from the very opening scene. The comedy just felt too forced and it was a shame because the premise was kind of interesting on paper. You have these characters assembled inside a closed space with several twists and surprises, but none of them ever feel authentic or funny. In trying to be clever Flypaper ends up being pretty stupid. I really couldn't understand how such a talented cast would accept to work in a movie like this. Ashley Judd and Patrick Dempsey can do much better than this. The jokes and gags were absolutely terrible and I didn't even smile during any moment of the movie. Rob Mincoff's (The Haunted Mansion and The Forbidden Kingdom) film failed tremendously. I wasn't expecting much from this film, but it was way worse than I thought it would be. Lucas and Moore proved with The Hangover that they can write clever and funny comedies, but I don't know what happened to them here. The film takes place almost entirely inside a bank where we are introduced to Tripp (Patrick Dempsey) who happens to be there changing a hundred dollar bill. He begins hitting on the teller, Kaitlin (Ashley Judd), but she's engaged and not amused. When Tripp is about to exit the bank he realizes that a heist is about to take place as two red necks nicknamed Peanut Butter (Tim Blake Nelson) and Jelly (Pruitt Taylor Vince) begin pulling out their guns. Tripp jumps over the counter and protects Kaitlin from the robbers, but almost at the same exact time another bank robber team is present. Darrien (Mekhi Phifer), Gates (Matt Ryan), and Weinstein (John Ventimiglia) seem to have planned out their heist with much more professionalism than the red neck Peanut Butter and Jelly duo. In middle of the confrontation the two teams open gunfire until Tripp convinces them to stop as they both seem to have come for different heists, the pros for the vault and the amateurs for the ATM machines. Several twists begin to take place from this point on as Tripp tries to solve the mystery as to why two heist teams happened to arrive at the exact time. Could there be an informant inside the bank?The premise might look interesting on paper because the concept is pretty interesting and original, but the execution is just terrible. From the very opening scene I didn't buy any of the characters or could take any of them seriously because the performances were really over the top. The script was terribly delivered and the actors had nothing to work with really. The entire detective story seemed pretty pointless and I really didn't care whether or not the mystery would be solved. At times I felt like I was watching a quirky staged play. I really hated this movie despite the fact that Ashley Judd had a lead role here. The only good thing I can say about this movie is that it only lasted about 85 minutes so it was over pretty quickly. By any means possible please stay away from this movie. http://estebueno10.blogspot.com/
