Is it PG-13 or R?
The official Web site says it is PG-13 but a official email I got says it's R. Which one is it?

[Athena007]

The official site andFilmRatings.com say: "Rated PG-13 for sexuality, violence and language"

Oh and check out this After the Sunset deal! ATLANTIS: Paradise Inn, Bahamas! I so want to go on vacation now! You have to book before Oct 15th for travel from now till Nov 24th though... not a lot of time.

1. Opening weekend US22million
2. Final Gross USA US110million
3.Worldwide USA US220million

I like Brosnan's non Bond films....... but it's very hard for me to take his characters as NOT Bond......... ESPECIALLY in Thomas Crown Affair........ man.......

[Athena007]

The other day while I was driving home from work down Hollywood Blvd I swear everywhere I looked... billboards, busses, bus stops, random poster places... THERE staring at me were Pierce Brosnan's glasses in that "After The Sunset" poster. It all made me quite JOYOUS!

[mccartney007]

I picked up a poster and a couple call sheets for AtS a few weeks ago for a decent price. I have yet to see any publicity for the film up in my area -- not even commercials (then again, I never watch television).

[Max Zorin]

I've seen a few commercials for it...the whole movie strikes me as rather..."Thomas Crown Affairish"

[Athena007]

And a new promo shot from After The Sunset... What is under the hood?

What is under the hood?

Who cares? I'm more concerned with the airbags coming out a bit early.

LOL but wasn't Taffin great?


Good news. I do wanna see this film.Brosnan's best film/role is TCA.

[Qwerty]

Definitely must see this, as painful as that probably sounds to alot of members on here.

[deth]

I like the remote controlled car.......

[1q2w3e4r]

Well sounds good. While i haven't exactly knocked the doors down at his Bond films. Let down more by material and direction than anything else. TCA was a Bond film for me. That was how Brosnan could have played Bond. This'll get my $. And Robinson C was good also.

Plus, anything to help stem him along after Bond. Moore ain't exactly lit the screen up after or during Bond. But Bros has great comedic timing. Pity LOA bombed.


Anyways, i'll definantly line up for this one.

ATLANTIS: Paradise Inn, Bahamas! I so want to go on vacation now!

I've been to this resort....It's amazing and worth the price.

[trs007]

Some theatres are having a sneak preview of this film on Saturday 11/6. SO check your local showtimes and get this in a week early.

[Harmsway]

I'm seeing it tonight, so I'll post a review here tomorrow.

[trs007]

JUst got back from a screening. Overall: fun but not the slick caper cat and mouse I had hoped for. Pierce looked great and the movie has a few surpises in store. Recommended.

[homerjbond]

I thought I would start a separate thread for members to post their reviews (short or detailed) of After the Sunset...mine will be of the short variety.

Saturday was a rarity for me: seeing two movies in separate theaters on the same day. I took the kids to the matinee showing of The Incredibles (a great film, BTW, one of Pixar's best) and then treated my wife to dinner and a sneak preview of After the Sunset that evening.

Judging by the trailer and by previous Brosnan's flicks, I was expecting a slick, sexy, tense, cat-and-mouse movie. Well, while I did enjoy the movie, it was pretty much a laid-back, quirky, comedic caper film. Some of the comedy bordered on sitcom (including the Pierce/Woody gay angle) and played for some nice laughs...but in the end, it wasn't so much about whether Pierce did go after the diamond and/or was successful, but also whether he makes up with Salma after their little spat and the scenery/culture of the Bahamas.

The review if favorable partly because, as a Bond fan, you get to see Brosnan in an non-Bond setting (homosexual misunderstanding, unshaven face, etc). If it had been anyone else in the role, I would probably dismiss it as a run-of-the-mill master-thief-coming-out-of-retirement-for-one-last-job movie.

Covering most rating scales, I would give it a 7 (out of 10)/B avg./3 stars (out of 4)

On a footnote, I have a list of places I want to visit in the near future (well, sometime in my lifetime), and, after seeing the film, Paradise Island, Bahamas jumped a few notches on my list. Great location, I can see why Connery fell in love with the place while filming Thunderball.

[ComplimentsOfSharky]

So is it worth the 8 bucks to go see it or the 3 to rent it in a few months?

[trs007]

I'd already posted my comments in the other thread; but I'd say split the differnce and go to a $5 matinee. I enjoyed it, but as I stated in my other post, it was not a "slick caper". It was fun and I'll definitely buy the DVD when released.

[ComplimentsOfSharky]

Ah, didn't notice your thread, thanks though.
