Comwayon A Disappointing Continuation

Keira Brennan The movie is made so realistic it has a lot of that WoW feeling at the right moments and never tooo over the top. the suspense is done so well and the emotion is felt. Very well put together with the music and all.

Erica Derrick By the time the dramatic fireworks start popping off, each one feels earned.

Nicole I enjoyed watching this film and would recommend other to give it a try , (as I am) but this movie, although enjoyable to watch due to the better than average acting fails to add anything new to its storyline that is all too familiar to these types of movies.

SnoopyStyle Frankie Stone (Ann Magnuson) is a modern woman in Miami. She's in public relations and is tired of boyfriend/client politician Steven Marcus. Her mother keeps bothering her about her sister's wedding. Her latest client is repressed scientist Jeff Peters (John Malkovich). He has created the Ulysses android which looks exactly like him. The program is in danger of losing government funding. Ulysses has never seen a woman and Frankie starts teaching him social graces before presenting him on a talk show. Her best friend Trish (Glenne Headly) arrives to stay with her after Trish's soap actor husband left her.The premise is somewhat cute. This is a rom-com where the successful female lead can't find a good man. Ann Magnuson is not a big rom-com actress. A bigger actress could probably make this work better. Malkovich is a stiff scientist and a learning robot. He's fine but not a hunky lead. I don't think any of the jokes are working. Frankie is a nice character but this isn't that funny.

Elswet Making Mr. Right. The premise behind this film is simple and the sub plots are uncomplicated and sometimes trite, but the movie is consistently contrived, from beginning to end.John Malkovich is a scientist who creates a look-alike android to precede him into space. Ann Magnuson is the assistant who is in love with her boss and ends up spending time with the android. Complications ensue. Well, duh! The suspension of belief required is pretty hard to achieve. In fact, it was impossible to achieve such an extreme level of dim awareness.The only redeeming element associated with this work is John Malkovich's performance, which is startling and Michael Jacksonesque (though not so much so as Depp's Chocolate Factory persona).All in all? Unless you're a die hard John Malkovich fan, this really isn't worth your time.It rates a 4.2/10 from...the Fiend :.

Roger Burke A long time ago, I saw Desperately Seeking Susan (1985), also directed by Susan Seidelman and I thought that film and story were quite good, and very well produced.I don't think the same about this effort, despite the presence of John Malkovich who gives an adequate performance in a dual role. The supporting cast is also quite good, particularly Laurie Metcalf, whom I recall most from her days on the TV sitcom Roseanne. The story material, however, leaves much to be desired...The problem with the narrative is that, try as I might, I really didn't care about any of the characters. Their vacuous lives amidst the glitz of Miami was a tad overdone, I thought, leaving absolutely no room for any empathy. Instead of being funny, it devolves into campy crassness, which, I grant you is part of that whole scene, way down there in orange juice land.However, instead of trying to overcome that, the story instead uses the presence of an android, named Ulysses, who looks like Malkovich (who must go on a long journey of seven years – yikes, shades of the Odyssey!) – to act as a metaphor for that same vacuity: empty, soulless, without feeling, without hope...And then proceeds to show how even such an empty shell can indeed learn to love and live as we all should. Excuse me? I don't mind suspension of disbelief to carry me through some preposterous narratives, but even science fiction (not science fantasy) must obey the laws and limitations of physics, neuroscience and computer software. This story blithely ignores all such precepts and merely succeeds in making itself look and sound ridiculous.And the ending? Just absurd – absolutely, totally, irrevocably absurd.If you really want to waste 98 minutes of your life, then go ahead and make yourself pay. I had to, in order to do this review, so how do you think I feel now?

mustican John Malkovich stars in Making Mr right as a scientist who makes a robotic version of himself to be used in a space mission. The company he is working for hires a women to teach the robot about emotions. But she falls in love with the robot. I don't have much to say about John Malkovich who gets the job done as usual. For some reason, this film didn't make me laugh in the parts I was supposed to. Ann Magnuson is not really convincing for her part. Okay, this is not supposed to be a serious film but again with the material we are talking about, a much better movie could have been done. She looks more like the wife of the senator who spends all her day shopping and changing hairstyle. There are some moments of the film you can smile but that's all. By the way nobody buys this robot's way of learning to impress a woman. Even a real person can't make it right with only one go. I think we are shown only the surface of the film, but in a romantic comedy audience expect to see a bit of deepness too. This is a big miss in Making Mr Right. * out of *****
