I have.
It's "okay" at best, Though I can tell the issues with the movie.

1. The main character is completely useless aside from the last half. And most of the time he's complaining.

2. Like you've said. The story can be very choppy at times. With it constantly switching from one viewpoint, to another, and now we're back to the kid, then the girlfriend. Speaking of which.

3. I felt that they had a good idea with the train. And had a unique conflict. Would we rather sacrifice our peace with the Natives just to progress?
But then they just throw it out the window and decide to have a "apparently I'm evil now" shtick.

4. Might as well say this. Johnny Depp as an Indian. Though admittedly, you know it's bad when he's the only likable main character.
If anything, if we look past the concept. He had personality, wit, and, what apparently the protagonist needed, guts...

5. The climax. I felt it was too "cheesy". Now, I don't mind cheese. Heck if anything I love it. And don't get me wrong it had it's fun moments.
It's just everything else before it was all dark and gritty. It just felt like pandering to the kids...
...And mind you this was a PG-13 movie.

6. The chiches. Mind you, it had some ideas. But it was note for note. The unlikely protagonist. The witty sidekick/mentor. The evil guy who wants to take over.
The girlfriend who's supposed to be over her but ends up getting together with him. The chosen one. The "I can't do this anymore!" scene. I could go on.

Heck, even the original ideas we're thrown out just to follow again (like the train conflict I said above).

But, that's just me...
But you've got to admit. Red has a fancy leg.

So, Microsoft SSB would be a RARE SSB with Guest star Master Chief

So long as we're talking crossover fighter games, make it Capcom vs Nintendo. That way Little Mac can take the title from Balrog (Street Fighter boxer) and Samus and Chun-li can battle over who IS video gaming's first lady? Also Wonder Red vs Viewtiful Joe.

Don't forget Shrek(now owned by Nintendo) VS Zangief!

I own and like PSABR enough, but I would have honestly liked it more as a straight Smash clone. I mean, when the 2D fighter craze of the 90s happened, people didn't take health bars away from their Street Fighter clones. They just changed the aesthetics and physics, and maybe added a few gimmicks.

Parapa seems like he was designed for Smash, his triangle moves even seem like straight up smash attacks.

Cartoon Network: Punch Time Explosion is a "straight Smash clone." PSASBR at least TRIED to be different in gameplay, CN: PTE didn't. Punch Time Explosion may not be as polished/good as Smash or PSASBR but it plagiarizes Smash almost faithfully.

Yeah, that's kind of my point, PSASBR was a polished and over all fun game, but it wasn't really a Smash Clone..... and there aren't any high quality Smash Clones. It really could have filled a niche.

Microsoft does have a few IPs it could use for something like Smash:

Halo
Gears of War
Blinx
Nintey-Nine-Nights
Age of Empires
Fable
Mech Warrior
Crimson Alliance
Crimson Skies
Kameo
Battle Toads
Conker
Jet Force Gemini
Killer Instinct
Banjo and Kazooie
Perfect Dark
Crackdown
Lost Odyssey
Shadowrun
Viva Pinata
Killer Instinct
Mark of the Ninja
'Splosion Man

and...um, Flight Simulator?

I'm pretty sure Microsoft's version of Smash would be like this. Clippy is the Final Boss though. No one else can do a good enough job.

Master Chief
Marcus Phoenix
6 Killer Instinct characters
3 Banjo Kazooie characters
a Battletoad
Joanna Dark
Blinx the Cat
Conker

Eew! I actually have a phobia of gum. I don't even like to say it's name. It especially grosses me out when people chew it obnoxiously with their mouths open like freaking *******s.
Well, I didn't think it was that bad.
If it makes you feel any better, I don't have it that often.
Heck, my favorite snack is popcorn...

If there's a Microsoft SSB clone, I expect something Kinect related.
