    Awful film. I liked the Rock's performance but that is it. Its dreadful!

    Being a huge fan of Get Shorty, I was happy that watching this film felt like being thrown straight back into the swing of things. Travolta is again great although a little less likable than before. The film is mainly made up of musicians, comedians and even an ex-wrestler trying...( read more) to act. Of course the performances are patchy, especially Milian who is pretty but empty in her role. Steven Tyler is just about bearable but his role is kept to a minimum. It is The Rock who impresses most, giving a great but small performance. He manages to convincingly portray a gay bodyguard without being too camp or OTT. The Bring it On monologue is simply hilarious. The dancing scene between Travolta and Thurman is very forced and other blatant references to the film BEING a film end up as irritating after an hour. A decent enough follow-up but Sonnenfeld is sorely missed.

    "Get Shorty" was a very cool movie but this sequel is nothing compared to it. Although the movie has a lot of talent in it, it fails to entertain you.

    I think "Be Cool" is very boring and the only positive things in it are suprisingly some of the scenes where The Rock and Andre ...( read more)Benjamin appear. And I'm not even a fan of them. Vince Vaughn is... well Vince Vaughn. You either love him or hate him.

    I recommend the film to those who want to see Uma Thurman in her bikini... And see Vince Vaughn dance like MC Hammer.

    The coolest movie in years. Total complete fun from start to finish. A great all-star cast. John Travolta has never been better. The Rock steals the show. Vince Vaughn, Cedric The Entertainer and Andre Benjamin are hilarious. Packs plenty of outragious laughs and explosive action.

    After Get Shorty, one would expect this Elmore Leonard novel adaptation to be strong. It was strong alright....it stunk BAD!
