Tim Allen gets behind camera for new comedy

Tim Allen has opinions — vocal ones — at the movies. “I pick apart movies — mine, anybody’s,” he said during a recent visit to his hometown of Birmingham, Mich. “I love movies. If I go to movies with people, they generally don’t go with me again. ‘Tim, you talked all the way through that.’ ‘But did you see that? That can’t happen. That doesn’t work. There was a different car that came in.’ I’m a continuity freak.” Now it’s time for the 56-year-old star to let audiences critique his skills behind the camera.
