Movies that lots of…
Movies that lots of people love that I detest/don’t care for/am left completely cold by:
A Beautiful Mind has been mentioned several times, but it’s a very good pick. The worst moment in the movie, among many, was the fabricated Nobel acceptance speech in which he nattered on about the schlock-romance we’d just spent the movie watching. Nash’s actual acceptance speech was about math. In general, this movie needed less love and more math.
Kids. Pointless wallowing in depravity and despair, with no redeeming virtues whatsoever.
Movies I love that other people hate on:
- Bamboozled. A lot of people seemed to get pissed off at the movie because they expected a straight comedy but the movie had other plans. Well, they were wrong and the movie was right.
Movies I probably won’t ever bother to see:
Napoleon Dynamite
Crash
Pulp Fiction, Resevoir Dogs, blah blah blah
Oh. I can’t believe I forgot the following for the I-hated-it—but-others-loved-it list:
- Fight Club. Oh good God what trash.
