Russell Crowe’s Appetite is ‘Unhinged’

”very big screen”. Hahahahaah

wow, looks great! usually when i watch the trailer i'm disappointed but i'll be seeing this one.

He must be diabetic now at that size.

I might see it, Russell Crowe is a very good actor.

I hope he washes his hands.

Morbidly obese, they say!

Oh Awwwwwwtchie!

I'm not going to be ignored, MA'AM. This type of movie has been done to death. Jodie probably turned it down

Reminds me of the Mrs. Doubtfire recut as a horror movie meme honestly

No-one feels pain quite like straight white big boys. Nothing that anyone else has endured compares to what they've experienced. They surely have every right to lash out and hurt whomever is rude to them. (end sarcasm)

I'll be skipping this nihilistic piece of shit.

R10 Uhh....... Shirley, you didn't watch the trailer and think Crowe's character was the sympathetic one, did you?

He looks like he's eaten a couple of Brandos.

He needs to star in UnMoled

Remember when he was losing weight about five years ago? Clearly he just said "FUCK IT!" and has shoveled the Cheetos into his piehole.

Does RC have to pay for two seats when he flies?

“Remember when he was losing weight about five years ago? Clearly he just said "FUCK IT!" and has shoveled the Cheetos into his piehole.”

Crowe decided to eat crow — and just keep eating.

Yeah no thanks. Why is his skin so bad?

he's bigger than ever!

R11 The terrifying thing is most of the people who'll go to see this will probably think he is. Just look at most of those comments on YouTube. Incels are going to flock to this thing then rage-post afterwards about how it tried to make him seem in the wrong.

BIG as a HOUSE!

[quote] Does RC have to pay for two seats when he flies?

Two seats? He needs two rows!

Could have gained this weight for this role? He is playing what appears to be your average white trash deplorable and a lot of them do tend to look like this.

R22 It's because he's so devoted to his acting that he became obese.

He did claim that the weight gain was for a role, but it was a different movie.

Have they settled on a love interest? Because if they haven't, call me! I'm available!

This thread is exhausting me.

MODERN CAMP CLASSIC

I'm in!

[quote] He did claim that the weight gain was for a role, but it was a different movie.

Actually I said it was for a "roll"--and also for several boxes of crullers and danishes and doughnuts and scones and muffins...

From the link at r24L

[quote] “Russell is getting annoyed with the focus on his weight,” a source exclusively told In Touch about the 55-year-old star. “He considers it part of his job. He’s no Christian Bale, who seems to gain and then lose the weight overnight, but he’s told his friends not to worry; he’ll get back down to fighting weight eventually. He’d really like to tell people to mind their own business,” they said. “He’s in no rush.”

[quote] He also doesn’t mind the physical transformation. “Russell loves acting, he loves transforming mentally and physically into a character,” the inside continued. For him, it’s part of the craft — but there are some down-sides to changing your physical appearance so drastically in such a short amount of time. “He’s learned that the older you get, the harder it is to get your old body back.”

[quote] And he’s made some major changes. “Russell has famously gone from a sexy, buffed out gladiator to having the ultimate dad bod in his last few films,” the source explained. “He’s really unrecognizable. He likes to joke that he’ll sacrifice whatever it takes for a good character, like eating more to play the late Fox News CEO Roger Ailes, but the road back to leading man status — on or off the screen — is a battle. The older you get, the harder it is.”

Russell has almost as many warts / moles as Robert Redford. Russell needs to demand a better lighting crew.

Basically, the film replaces Godzilla vs Rodan with Alex Jones vs Karen.

What R31 said.

And I don't think either of them are "the sympathetic one".

He's crazy and she's a fucking cunt.

[QUOTE] He must be diabetic now at that size.

I have gotten similarly big before while staving off diabetes. It depends on how much muscle you carry.

R4 Did you see him in Les Misérables?

This will officially be the first post-Coronavirus movie released in theaters.

Movie about a trump voter. No thanks.

I thought at any moment he would turn into The HULK!!

Let's see, an ugly, angry, obese, crazy man who goes on a murderous, road rage temper tantrum? HARD PASS.

Russell Crowe is the shittiest asshole in an industry of shitty assholes. I hope this movie tanks. Fucking blimp.

I guess we all should have taken comparisons to Brando more seriously at the time...

What now is the difference between John Goodman and Russell Crowe? It's difficult to discern from OP's pic.

[quote]What now is the difference between John Goodman and Russell Crowe? It's difficult to discern from OP's pic.

Goodman has lost so much weight that it's likely he actually now weighs LESS than Crowe if that pic is any indication...

Has anyone made the "His JAW is unhinged" joke yet?

Good for Russell! They always say he has an appetite for a meaty role, one he can really sink his teeth into!

The reviews are coming in.

Quite big tits.

This guy has the exact same personality in every movie.

Yeah but why does the woman in the movie have to be such a total cunt. Can’t she just apologize to the crazy man and get on with her life?

[QUOTE] This guy has the exact same personality in every movie.

No he doesn’t. Russell has displayed great range throughout his career, R48.

R50 - I disagree. He plays different characters, but they all have the same surly personality.

Crowe was great in that Roger Ailes show.

He should’ve been nominated for “Phone-Throwing Tantrum.”

Gladiate it

Glad-he-ate it

Oh dear. He was quite sexy at one time.

Well looks like it’s back to being the first pandemic theater release afterall.

This has been out in the UK for a while. I liked it - it's a total B-movie thriller, but I was never bored. Crowe throws himself into the role - it's like a male actor's version of when all the old actresses started doing horror movies after Baby Jane. And yes, he's Marlon Brando big.

Looks like Dual 2020.

Let me guess how this ends - she strikes back and kills him in a fiery inferno.

All I can hear is the Nirvana music...

I saw a recent interview with Crowe where he talked about this film. He said that in bad guys he's played in the past, he's tried to find some redeeming qualities to balance out the character. But the character in this movie - he found none.

Not about the movie, but interesting video, apparently one of a series of actors talking about films that started their interest in movies...

Crowe is so perfect for this role!

I like you r40.

He's such a fat, greasy, lump of shit. I've always hated him and found it mystifying that some fraus got wet looking at him. He looks like he should be pouring concrete for a living. IFHH.

fugly old right wing sow....NO

When is last time this fat pig had hit? He looks bloated as helll, and sick

Humiliating for this once ok actor to sink to such depths, I lasted 13 minutes, its a drive in movie....

[quote] Humiliating for this once ok actor to sink to such depths, I lasted 13 minutes, its a drive in movie....

Such opinions are very subjective. I felt the same way when I watched The Matrix, The Dark Knight. The Descendants and on and on. You never know what will work and what won't.

Half the movie takes place in a car, with some broad doing stuff....odd......havent seen any good shots of his gut yet, he in a car too chasin the girl....real shit movie.

Holy crap he is huge, just saw pic of him sneakin a cig on the movie, unreal... his heart must be on its last legs

He and Lana Del Ray have obviously found the only buffet still open and serving customers!

He sitting in a car for most of the flick cause his gut is enormous ... so funny, looks like a trumper ,,,,, no control over his various addictions, puff puff,,,,how weak.... food gonna kill him tho.

He should do drag, his tits now are mighty big suckers. a fukin mouthfull !

This is just sad. I didn't mind watching Tom Hardy in a car.

I have no idea why but Russell Crowe reminds me of Richard Burton.

Cannot believe that he’s the same cutie from THE SUM OF US.

how he get insured for movies with that much morbid obesity????

OMG imagine how big his ass must be, he needs a bra with them teats of cow.

[QUOTE] so funny, looks like a trumper

I can’t imagine that the character is anything but a Trump supporter. If it was filmed after Corona struck, he’d be one of those types who refused to wear a mask.

His balls must be huge and sweaty.

Oh good, another movie aimed squarely at incels and MRAs. Really good idea to encourage them, Hollywood.

he is a fat piece of shit who cant get good roles anymore cause he is a monstrous bore and blob of blubber.

I’m watching THE WATER DIVINER. Normally I give Crowe’s films a pass, but this one has Jai Courtney and Ryan Corr in it. Crowe directed it.

the fat sow is advertising his show on housewives nyc, riding their hump into another mega fat ass flop movie.

Didn't they already make this movie with Valerie Harper in the 70s?

Unhinged: The Steve Bannon Story

49% on rotten tomatoes, shocked it got that much....really nasty reviews....poor old fuk

Bump

[QUOTE] 49% on rotten tomatoes, shocked it got that much....really nasty reviews....poor old fuk

That’s great for a movie like this. It means I’d probably rate it at 65%.

[quote]Crowe was great in that Roger Ailes show

I didn't even know it was him for a few episodes. He gained all this weight for that part and now he can't lose it

😂 That’s fucked up if true. James Gandolfini had the same problem with The Sopranos.

He's playing himself. Hothead asshole.

Nonsense, R93. Russell Crowe would never do what this character does in the movie. He has a temper. I also have a temper. Doesn’t mean I want to hunt down and harass people in road raging incidents. This man is a monster and Russell is anything but.

Look at him! He's big as a house!

He gained weight for a role. The Russell Crowe Story.

He's a [bold]FAT FUCK![/bold]

[quote] Russell Crowe would never do what this character does in the movie.

No, he would just fling cellphones at them, causing them to bleed, and then make aggressive kung fu poses towards them, threatening to beat them up.

Saying "I have a temper. he has a temper" does not excuse him or you from beating up people in bars or throwing things at clerks in hotels.

This summer, Bruce Vilanch IS Russell Crowe...

Exactly, R82. I live in Dallas and this movie is going to be one big circle jerk to these these aggressive, fatass, pussy-beard motherfuckers in their lifted 4x4s. With their VICTIM MENTALITIES.

Ben Affleck and Samuel L Jackson should do a movie like this.

Spoiler alert!

[quote]An honestly trashy B-thriller that is by now less widely known by its title than as “you know, the Russell Crowe road rage movie,” it doesn’t exactly seem too momentous a film event for VOD.

[quote]Dispensing with context or polite foreplay, Derrick Borte’s film begins with a bloody, punch-drunk doozy of a prologue: Crowe, parked on a suburban street in a crashing rainstorm, lighting matches and watching them burn out with his signature deep-furrowed scowl. Clearly this behavior isn’t leading anywhere pleasant, though we aren’t prepared for just how quickly things escalate. Suddenly resolute, as David Buckley’s hardworking score reaches shrieking pitch, he marches out of the car carrying an ax, hacks open the front door of the nearest house, hacks open the terrified couple inside, sets the house on fire for good measure, and drives off into the soaking night. The title credit hasn’t even appeared on screen yet, but the film has already fulfilled its promise: Russell Crowe sure is unhinged.

[quote]That comes down to a structural miscalculation in the Swiss-cheese script by genre pro Carl Ellsworth (“Red Eye,” “Disturbia”): If you begin your film about a maniac with the psycho-meter dialed up to 11, there’s nowhere to go but sideways. And while you can still do a lot of spectacular damage going sideways — as “Unhinged” goes on to demonstrate in a series of niftily choreographed, lane-weaving car chases — any dramatic rewards are scant.

He'll stoop to making any POS movie now that his ex-wife has cleaned him out in the divorce...

[quote]He also doesn’t mind the physical transformation. “Russell loves acting, he loves transforming mentally and physically into a character,” the inside continued.

His next movie will be a remake of The Machinist. He'll show skin.

Made $4.1 million in the US this weekend.

ARE YOU NOT ENTERTAINED

Hideous

The movie is over-the-top but amusing.

The kid who plays the son is an adorable, little gayling.

r106, it looks like he's been entertained by eating doughnuts all day

Why did OP post a picture of John Goodman?

man he has become a pig of untalented proportions....who would hire this bum??

his films are now big stinkers

r105, is that good?

omg wtf happened? i mean he was alwys a redneck asshole drunk, but now he a fat cunt.

OMG!!!!

He's always been good at playing rageaholic assholes...

Russell's best film in The Sum of Us (1994).

R116 His only gay role and he has good chemistry with Jack Thompson and John Polson but I found the film's convention of breaking the fourth wall extremely annoying.

he mad cause he doesnt get invited to hwood parties anymore...

cause he dont wipe his ass.

He was sexy in L.A. Confidential, but even in that film he played a thug. Except for The Sum of Us, which is brilliant, the rest of his films seem to be about thugs. And this one is a step too far. Does he really think we need this right now?

[quote] Let's see, an ugly, angry, obese, crazy man who goes on a murderous, road rage temper tantrum?

I know right, you just need to earthcam into any highway in flyover to see that, and save the price of admission.

omg cowface

[quote] I can’t imagine that the character is anything but a Trump supporter.

Do we have to inject the Plump Virus into everything?

Brilliant actor, does a lot of shit movies for money. In that sense he's like Burton and Caine and others. I heard he was pretty good as Roger Ailes.

Bills have to be paid.

He's ready to play Henry VIII

she aint been a brilliant actor for a hundred yeARS

I’m watching this right now and it’s surprisingly suspenseful.

I’m watching it right now, and it might be the worst movie of 2020. And this is the year of both The Turning and The Witches, so that’s saying something.

Is he playing Steve Bannon?

😂 This guy would rip Bannon a new asshole. He was a monster.
