“Aside from a couple of signature flourishes, there's nothing to mark Paycheck as the product of acclaimed action director John Woo. In fact, there's little about this movie that makes it worth anyone's time and money. With a script that waffles between being hilariously absurd and insultingly stupid, and action scenes that won't cause anyone's pulse to skip a beat, Paycheck is less appealing than a lump of coal in a Christmas stocking.” LittlesFactsActionCausesStupidProductsCoupleSceneDirectorsBeatsMarkScriptsAbsurdCoalPulseSignaturesSkipLumpsPaychecksTime And MoneyStockingsWaffles Author:James Berardinelli
“I do have more directorial control over animation, because it's like trial and error: If something doesn't work, you can always go back and change certain things.

“And so as a director, as a leader, and myself as a director and a leader, I kind of try to make sure that we hold onto the vision and kind of corral it, but by the time you finish whatever the project is, a TV show, a series, a movie, a stage show, it should be a product of what all those people can do, and therefore, it can never be what you imagined it would be in the beginning.” PeopleShouldTryingKindShowsWould BeCan DoLeaderVisionStageTvsProductsDirectorsProjectsSeriesTv Shows Author:Brian Henson
