Faith Like Potatoes (2006)
just not enough "child gets run over by tractor " movies out nowdays !
o.k. , basically , if you believe that your young son getting crushed & brutally killed in a tractor accident would be a GOOD thing & that he would be MUCH happier that way . . . then , by all means , run out & rent this piece of **** - one of the very few movies , in my whole life , that i have quit watching in the middle of because it's "message" was so sickening -
the "hero" raises a complete stranger from the dead ( RIIIGHT ! ) but then when he accidentally kills his friend's son , the same result just can't be repeated ( WONDER WHY ? ) and then when a local townsperson brings up this seeming inconsistancy , they are disdainfully put down as being "mean" -
possibly the most IDIOTIC movie i have ever seen !
Click (2006)
what could have been an interesting idea . . . trashed by IDIOTIC writing
very few movies compel me , whether from greatness or "suckiness" , to bother to take time out of my life to comment on . . . but "click" was SO idiotic . . . that i'm compelled ! - out of many , MANY things i could point to negatively , i'll let merely one depressingly , outrageously IDIOTIC piece of "writing" suffice for my overview : at one point adam sandler's character is hugging his wife , the delectable kate beckinsale's character , and coos into her ear "i love you" . . . but he is talking to the REMOTE CONTROL ! . . . not HER ! . . . anybody that could have wrote that is beyond hope or help - sadly , even the beautiful kate beckinsale , the always-great christopher walken and the delightful jennifer connelly can't salvage this depressing waste -of-time - instead of this diaper-filler . . . go & watch "family man" instead . . . similar plot BUT 1000 times better !
Cloverfield (2008)
cloverfield sucks.....no , i mean REALLY sucks !
1st - am disappointed i can't rate this a zero out of 10 2nd - don't see how anyone could include a "spoiler".....there is nothing to spoil 3rd - did i mention that this movie REALLY sucks ?
this is all coming from someone who actually enjoyed *the blair witch project* (unlike most people) & didn't even dislike the last *godzilla* (unlike most people).....so no problem with the idea and/or concept - what i did have a HUGE problem with is simply that cloverfield is SO boring & UNscary that i actually really did fall asleep in the middle of it ! - the "idea" of cloverfield could have been interesting but the actual finished plot , script , acting & directing all end up being idiotic & childish - this movie is actually WORSE than bad (bad movies can still be fun - a la *attack of the killer tomatoes*) because it is just completely boring
advice : save your money on this one & go rent *little miss sunshine* again !
I Am Legend (2007)
there's a reason this is my 1st time on here
This is my 1st time on here because this is the most disgusted i've ever felt upon leaving a movie. My sole comment that i intended to leave (before finding out it had to be 10 lines long) was going to simply say - if you have read I Am Legend (a very thought-provoking , psychological classic), then you will NOT like what they have done with this movie.....specifically the p.c. dumbed down "feel-good" ending that completely goes 180 degrees against the novels conclusion.
Will Smith does fine & Sam the dog will boost German Shepherd adoptions & the N.Y. backgrounds look great but that asinine ending (starting with the night suicide rampage on the dock) just destroys what should have been an intelligent adaptation.
Read the book instead....it's awesome....this movie (sadly) is not !
