neutral · AI labelView post →outer heaven feature of the night was Tower Heist (2011), a surprisingly funny and tight heist comedy with an all star cast that makes a great period piece for the early great recession recovery era. peak "catch it on a b-tier movie channel one random afternoon" film. will grab it for the library!

positive · AI labelView post →“Tower Heist” takes place during thanksgiving & features the NY Thanksgiving day parade, it’s not a great film, but I enjoy it for what it is. Also I had to do one of my many rewatches of “Jingle All The Way” a ridiculous movie that I love so much. #lastfourwatched

neutral · AI labelView post →So like that movie with Ben Stiller, Eddie Murphy Matthew Broderick and the others? I think it was called Tower Heist 🤔. But with grants and whatnot returned and increased and hopefully student loans forgiven too? 😏. I'd absolutely be down for that.

positive · AI labelView post →This scene in the movie Tower Heist cracked me up to no end. It had no business being so funny youtu.be/z3DbyP5495U?...
positive · AI labelView post →And: it figures. "The film is directed by Brett Ratner, who also directed “Rush Hour” and “Tower Heist.” “Melania” is Ratner’s first feature film since multiple women accused him of sexual assault or harassment in 2017. Ratner disputed the allegations and was never charged."
neutral · AI labelView post →Tower Heist is an **insane** movie. The fact that How Did This Get Made hasn't gotten to it yet is frustrating. It's a studio exec's dream and a straight train wreck.
negative · AI labelView post →Tower Heist released in movie theaters 14 years ago today. This is an interesting one to watch with a fun cast. youtu.be/IiUAKqyrq3M?... #Movies #Filmsky
neutral · AI labelView post →Damn....I was looking forward to The Pickup. Oh well, I'll probably watch it anyway just to see Eddie Murphy. When I watched Tower Heist, I kept thinking to myself "this movie would be so much better with more Eddie Murphy and less Casey Affleck" 🤭

neutral · AI labelView post →@benstiller.redhour.com Hey Mr. Stiller, I just want to thank you for this well-written scene in "Tower Heist". The whole movie was fantastic, but this moment in particular was fucking AMAZING. (Sorry I couldn't find a cleaner version.)

neutral · AI labelView post →Btw watch Tower Heist, the best Thanksgiving movie
positive · AI labelView post →I watched Tower Heist last night. I can forgive a lot in a cheesy movie, but this movie's WILLFUL and repeated gaslighting about the density and mass of solid gold vs the lifting power of unexceptional men, cables, and little old ladies is frankly, unforgivable. B-. 😂😂😂

neutral · AI labelView post →True story: “Tower Heist” (2011) started out as a film idea from Eddie Murphy that he and a crew would pull off a heist from Trump Tower. Brett Ratner took over the project and we got Alan Alda and a gold Ferrari instead. Eddie Murphy stealing Trump’s gold toilet would have been a better movie.
neutral · AI labelView post →Godzilla was in a film with Matthew Broderick, who was in Tower Heist with Eddie Murphy... Trading Places with Dan Aykroyd... Blues Brothers 2000 with John Goodman... O Brother, Whereart Thou? with George Clooney...Ocean's Eleven with Angie Dickenson, who was in Ocean's 11 with Sammy. Possible!
neutral · AI labelView post →Brett Ratner was never a good director and he hasn’t worked in awhile. Still, you’d think the director of the Rush Hour series, an X-men movie, and Tower Heist would STILL have better prospects than Melania! #movies #melania #trump #MovieSky #FilmSky #MovieBuff

positive · AI labelView post →62. Tower Heist honestly heist movies are in such a funny spot in that they're one of the few movie subgenres that could be either pure comedy or pure action/drama this one's just a pure comedy tho and burger king propaganda
neutral · AI labelView post →Tower Heist is done. Technically, only the last third or so of the film takes place on Thanksgiving but hey, Miracle on 34th Street doesn't take place entirely on Christmas so screw it. Plus I'll damned if I'm letting December pass without watching that gem. Happy Not-Christmas!!! boxd.it/bRazon

neutral · AI labelView post →Apparently Brett Ratner's "Tower Heist" film was originally about Trump Tower, so as you can see he and Trump go way back. As do Trump and Diddy, Trump and Epstein, Trump and Ghislaine Maxwell, and Trump & former Prince Andrew. It's almost like there's a pattern here, or something.

positive · AI labelView post →When the AMPAS includes Brett Ratner in their "In Memoriam" reel in some future year, people will defend his inclusion, saying, "Well, yes, he was accused of sexual abuse and made that horrible Nazi propaganda film, but... um... uh... oh! Tower Heist! That was fun and only moderately problematic!"
