Chinatown' is just for time pass
'Chinatown' has a thoroughly entertaining first hour, but the weak writing in its post-interval portions asking you to leave-your-brains-at-home prevents the movie from becoming an altogether appreciable work.At the Box Office, the movie will have a very good first week, but the subsequent weeks will need heavy promotions to sail through. Anyhow, 'China Town' is prescribable for a one time watch, much to enjoy the comic timing of its lead cast.(more)

China Town has no substance
The film virtually piggybacks on the stars to get the momentum as there is no script to speak of. The duo that was known for their comical writing in the nineties has now reached a stage where they borrow dialogues from email forwards. That's the sorry state of the film. It will be futile to dwell on the performance of the actors as there is no solid material to back them. This one's a no-brainer and can be watched if you are not looking for thought-provoking stuff.(more)
