I wasn't talking about the movie,I said Wahlberg himself wasn't that compelling.
Sure he's workable if you surround him with enough interesting stuff to distract you from his essential blandness but you can't honestly tell me that you watched anything that he's been in and gone"shit I can't see anyone but Marky Mark in that part".
Sadly in that family Donny got most of the talent and Mark got most of the looks.
Anyway I'm going to try and watch it but be forewarned if I don't like it then I intend to bully you like fuck.

The Avengers(yeah that one)
Though far from a perfect movie Whedon does what he does best ,bring a sense of true.aw shucks heroism to a whole lot of silly.
Sam Jackson's Nick Fury gets far too much air time ,actually S.H.I.E.L.D. in general just sort of gets in the way but all the other characters basically work ,both individually and as a team.In fact I thought Chris Evans was far better here than in Captain America and who'd have thunk but mark Ruffalo makes a close to perfect Bruce Banner.
As I said it's basically all very silly but in a good comic book sort of way and the fact that it never takes itself too seriously certainly helps.By the end it had me cheering along with everyone else.
I look forward to the next installment especially if Whedon directs again.
