PREMIUM RUSH - gleaming the block

I went to the movies today and purchased some popcorn, a corn dog, some delicious kettle corn, a small packet of candy corn, an ear of fresh corn on the cob, a coke loaded with corn syrup, a side of steamed corn, and topped it all off with lots more corn, corn corn corn corn corn corn corn corn corn corn corn corn corn corn corn corn corn corn corn corn corn corn corn corn corn corn corn corn corn corn corn corn corn corn corn corn corn corn corn corn corn corn corn corn corn corn corn corn corn corn corn corn corn corn corn corn corn corn corn corn corn corn corn corn corn corn corn corn corn corn corn corn corn corn corn corn corn corn corn corn corn corn corn corn corn corn corn corn corn corn corn corn corn corn corn corn corn corn corn corn corn corn corn corn corn corn corn corn corn corn corn corn corn corn corn corn corn corn corn corn corn corn corn corn corn corn corn corn corn corn corn corn corn corn corn corn corn corn corn corn corn corn corn corn corn corn corn corn corn corn corn corn corn corn corn corn corn corn corn corn corn.

It's movies like this that cause me to question Ebert's current mental prowess. (he gave the film 3 and 1/2 stars) I can see some actually enjoying this bizarre "action" movie for it's unique brand of stellar badness. Even IMDB and Rotten Tomatoes are showing love so I guess I'm missing something here. A movie for young teens maybe? I guess it's so cool to ride a bike through NYC with no brakes to deliver messages for $30 bucks a pop, nearly killing yourself and others every few seconds. Maybe this is the most stupid dangerous job in existence.
