I really like Wild Wild West so I will probably see this movie

too bad, looked like it had potential. Probably see it in the dollar theater, if ever.

Was there really a need to mention that Charlize' character is hiding a secret? You could have left that out and still made your point about the film.

How does merely pointing out that Charlize Theron's character is "hiding a secret" hurt anything?

Here are some other spoilers for big summer movies:

Indiana Jones is an archaeologist.

Batman is really Bruce Wayne.

Iron Man wears a metal suit.

"The Happening" is another idiotic Shyamalan movie.

Relax. I really doubt that spoiled anything, and it was in no way inappropriate.

While it's true that Mr. Vice did not give anything away about the secret by saying that, now we will watch the movie expecting a secret to be revealed about her, instead of being completely surprised by it. That probably is not common knowledge before watching this movie, but the statements about the movies you brought up were.

It's a movie review and he's going to talk about the movie. If you don't want to hear about what goes on in the movie, don't read the review.

The Charlize Theron character thing is made pretty clear in the new TV ads and trailers, which are unavoidable at this point. So how is it a secret?
