Silly doesn't automatically mean funny
22 April 2004
This movie is trying so hard to be silly it isn't fun any more. And I love silly movies (Toxic Avenger for example), but this one was a major disappointment.

Story involves mad scientist who re-introduces killer tomatoes (from the first movie, which I haven't seen yet), in the form of humans like 'Tara', who main character Chad falls in love with.

Whole movie consists of silly jokes, which more often don't than do work, with the whole 'we need money to make a movie so let's use product placement' thing as a huge downer. Maybe the joke is fun for like a minute or so but to use it throughout the second half of the movie... it was wearing really thin.

The makers of this movie tried to get away with the 'we're spoofing and hailing bad movies so we're making one as well' attitude, but there are tons of 'better bad movies' you can see. Not even (very!) young George Clooney can save it, so skip this one...

3/10.
