They. I watched that entire movie, waiting to find out what was going on…and then…nothing. No explanation of it at all. Just…suck. Lots and lots of suck.
The Bourne Supremacy. A total waste of my time and money. Blah.
I was dragged to Dirty Dancing: Havana Nights that made everything else I’ve seen this year seem like Shakespeare.
Everytime I see a movie I now call the person who dragged me to that one and say, “at least it wasn’t Dirty Dancing”. The only thing stopping her from killing me at this point is that she just moved halfway across the country
A while ago, against my better judgement, I agreed to see Raising Helen. I understand that relationships involve compromise, but that request was nothing short of brutal.
I can think of a number of things I would rather have done that day. Removing my own appendix with a butter knife and a shrimp fork, for example.
Oh God, yes. Note to whoever made that festering heap of donkey droppings: The Punisher is not slapstick comedy, even when Garth Ennis is writing.
AvP wasn’t that bad. Shrek 2 really, really was that bad.
Gothika as well. It was wank wank wank wank wank wank. Pile of steaming doodoo. Absolute bollocks. Total rubbish. Complete toss. Need I go on?
The Stepford Wives. Luckily, I didn’t pay to see it though.
Definitely Van Helsing. Between that this year and Underworld last year, I’m fully prepared to give up on movies with vampires in them.
The Day After Tomorrow
I’m starting to be really relieved that I didn’t catch “The Day After Tomorrow” when it was my in-flight movie.
That bad, hm?
Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban
I haven’t seen many moves in theatres this year, on account of being busy in school and spending summer in a national park and thus a long way from any movie theatre. For the record, the others I’ve seen are The Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind, Ella Enchanted, Spiderman 2, Hero, Kill Bill Volume 2, and* Sky Captain and the World of Tomorrow.*
Probably The Hours. I have nothing against that sort of film, but this version was tedious.
Honorable Mention: The Big Bounce. It probably could have been a good film if they had stuck with an R rating, but they obviously cut out a lot about the relationship to get a PG-13, and it was just plain dull.
With your own money? How drunk were you?
Mine was “The Day After Tomorrow.” Yep, it was on the plane.
I’ll second that! What a piece.
Then again, I did watch Piñata: Survival Island last night which was about a killer piñata going after co-eds. Still, it out-acted Matt Damon.
Spartan. With Val Kilmer. I didn’t rent it, but I was convinced to watch this pile steam for about an hour. I was so bored that I had to bail and hit a Taco Bueno.
That was truly more Buenu.
Once Upon A Time In Mexico. Oh, my dear lord, did it suck.
Spartan… Movielink had this for 99 cents a couple days back so I paid in for it. Should I even bother? This is that Gladiator rip off right?
Another vote for this steaming pile of crap.
Nope. It’s a David Mamet written/directed kidnapping movie, which means it is more talking than chases/explosions. It’s on my to-watch list, but I like Mamet. YMMV

Godsend. Pathetic. How I wanted the kid to kill his mother in that shed!
