Paramount Moves Forward With 'Baywatch' Movie

Paramount is moving forward with its big-screen adaptation of Baywatch and has loosely attached Dwayne Johnson for beach patrol duties. The studio also has hired Justin Malen to rewrite and has attached the hot comedy writing team of Sean Anders and John Morris (We're the Millers) to direct.

If this isn't the first movie to be shot entirely in slow motion I'll be highly disappointed!

B.A._Baracus · 09-10-2014 11:51pm

So the 21 jump street movie has inspired the remake of Baywatch.
Both being classic tv shows back in the day. Turned into comedy remakes. Wonder what's next :pac:

It has to have The Hoff in it

Is The Rock playing Mitch?

From what I remember of True Detective 1, this will be most pleasing...

TICKLE_ME_ELMO · 20-11-2015 2:19am

I saw about 5 names of women in the running for the lead in this and I thought to myself... why would you want to be?

Maybe I'm completely jumping the gun but I find it hard to imagine the female roles here are going to involve anything more than running.

Agent Coulson · 05-01-2016 5:37pm

The new CJ Parker.

She is no Pamela Anderson when it comes to slowmo running.

Daddario in a bikini

my word

Mr E · 08-12-2016 2:44pm

Some truly awful dialog, poor comedy and lots of slow motion. See you opening weekend.

Looks like good fun.

Brief_Lives · 08-12-2016 3:15pm

The second half of that trailer looks like a lot of fun... Not a serious bone in this movies body....

well, maybe...

JP Liz V1 · 08-12-2016 5:04pm

It might turn out good like 21 Jump Street, Rock is pretty much box office gold now

Agent Coulson · 08-12-2016 6:18pm

I'm in from that trailer anyway.

Yeah, definite 21 Jump St. vibe from that trailer. Looked really funny - the bit with the cop shouting at them was great. And that Zak Effron is a fine looking fella.

Also Starring LeVar Burton · 08-12-2016 11:12pm

Big fan of the TV series, so kinda glad to see they're giving it the 21 Jump Street treatment and going for an all out comedy rather than trying to a carbon copy of the series.

Neamhshuntasach · 09-12-2016 12:03am

I really hope there is some beginning of a trend where R rated films become popular again. There has been a lot of backlash over PG13 and some recent R's have done well at the box office. Not that curses and nudity etc are needed. But i just hate when i see a film desperately go out of it's way to stay teen friendly.

Surprisingly looks entertaining. Won't be in a rush to see it. But i'm sure i'll enjoy it when i do.

s8n · 10-12-2016 1:04pm

This looks like a missed opportunity. Was a great opportunity to make a serious movie on the trials of being a lifeguard

Yes because that's exactly what I took from the TV show as a teenage boy.

Drumpot · 10-12-2016 9:15pm

I had no intention of going to this vut the trailer worked.

Looks like something I can go with her indoors. Not often we can agree on what to goto on cinema nights!

FunLover18 · 10-12-2016 10:31pm

That scene with Zac Efron's balls' voice (not a phrase I ever expected to type) is horrendous. Looks decent otherwise.

That trailer looks brilliant.

I can't believe I feel like buying a ticket for this movie, but I do.

fryup · 11-01-2017 7:04pm

good **** material

bnt · 11-01-2017 9:42pm

I don't know about that, not with Alexandra D'Addario looking at me with those piercing blue eyes ... :eek:

Slydice · 06-02-2017 3:14am

Superbowl trailer:

Agent Coulson · 10-05-2017 9:49pm

That's the version I want to see not a the PG version.

Dezekota · 15-05-2017 11:56pm

Hmmmm looks fun but lacking blonde bombshells
One is never enough where's the Yasmine bleeth,Nicole eggert, Erika eleniak and donna D Erico characters

Agent Coulson · 24-05-2017 2:35pm

The reviews are panning it lots of zero and one star ratings.

FunLover18 · 24-05-2017 3:42pm

Im not surprised. I was optimistic at first but the last few trailers have been awful.

MilesMorales1 · 30-05-2017 9:38pm

I don't know what I thought really. It's not great, its a pretty bad film. But then its got pretty ladies in bathing suits, and bad humour that gave me more than a few chuckles, so I didn't hate it.

team_actimel · 02-06-2017 9:43am

Reluctantly went to see it last night after seeing the bad reviews.

I LOVED it to my surprise! There are a lot of proper laugh out loud moments. I was crying laughing at one particular scene

in a morgue

Haven't laughed like this at a film in ages.

Expect very cheesy dialogue, went on a tiny bit too long but it's an entertaining movie nonetheless.

Banjaxed82 · 02-06-2017 10:06am

Saw it last night. Good Lord, it was complete sh!te.

It just wasn't funny. So many jokes fall flat. The tone of the film is so all over the place. It's as if 5 different scripts were directed by 5 different directors and smashed together in the edit.

The dialogue is so cringe worthy it was mortifying to watch. And what was the story with the CGI effects?!

A film like Baywatch, and the superficial nonsense that is contained, should at least make for a movie that's a bit of craic, but the whole thing was so laboured and clunky. :eek:

Nervous Wreck · 02-06-2017 4:19pm

Awful awful film.

Mitch Connor · 03-06-2017 1:23am

Done decent business in Ireland. Top 10 movie in may.

Virtanen · 04-06-2017 9:49pm

It was basically the 21 Jump Street movie set on a beach

So my mates and I thought it was great craic

A harmless 2-hour popcorn flick

AMKC · 06-06-2017 3:33pm

I have not gone to see this but can tell from the trailers that it is utter rubbish. I know someone who did go to see it even do I said that will be crap and well ye they said it is just terrible.

GavRedKing · 14-06-2017 9:26am

Seen it last night, in the Cork Omniplex its a €6 a ticket so the screening was full and on one of the bigger screens, I'm assuming largely down to the cut price tickets.

Might as well cut straight to it, the film was terrible, some ok one line jokes here and there but its devoid of any substance and it doesnt try to apologise for it. There was some seriously bad CGI throughout the film too. There was a couple next to us left after about an hour. I'd probably give it a 4/10 at a push.

There was 3 trailers on before hand and 2 of the films made Baywatch look like Godfather, some tripe called The House, starring Will Ferrell among other, looks as funny as being told you've minutes to live and an even bigger abomination popped out too, called Rough Night.

Agent Coulson · 19-06-2017 5:57pm

It's terrible but I had a smile on my face from start to finish so it did it's job I guess.

Brief_Lives · 20-08-2017 8:01pm

I just saw the digital release..
It made me laugh a few times, and it was as ridiculous as the TV series was..

Overall, I think it will do well on DVD rather than cinema... The characters were fun, great bodies and they took the piss out of themselves well.. I'd watch a número 2...
6/10
