The first 10 minutes of Baywatch are funny if you can look past the constant explosion of F-bombs.

There seems to be a 50 Shades Darker/Baywatch/Transformers/Mummy pattern forming here. Proud to say I skipped them all.

How many squillions came out of China and not the USA? It made 130M here on a budget of 217M. So it was a colossal failure stateside. However, thanks to the usual Holly/Beijing-wood pandering to other markets, internationally it made 473M. 229M of that came from China (of course).

I didn't see it despite having forced myself through the previous films.

Meh...money is money. I get the business decision. More power to them. But those movies were shite.

The Mummy remake wasn't bad - but could have been SO much better had they done two things - one, not cast Tom Cruise and gone with Brendon Frasier (despite his poundage nowadays), and two, ported it as part of the universe and not a reboot (the only way #1 would work I think).

I didn't want to see Baywatch at all, but after my son saw it and said it was very funny, I checked it out, and thought it was pretty good. Nothing I'd want to go out of my way to see again, but it was enjoyable.
