Ingenious (2009)
Trivial in every respect
16 October 2012 - 6 out of 12 users found this review helpful.
It was hard to sit through so much stupidity--stupid ideas, stupid actions (such as repeatedly gambling away any chance of successfully launching a product or, for that matter, saving an important relationship), stupid business dealings. I had hoped for some redemption, but alas, the end product of all the travails was, at best, trivial. The characters were trivial, with trivial dreams and goals who wanted nothing other than financial success at any cost. And what are viewers ultimately rewarded with? A talking bottle opener. Great. That really made it all worthwhile. Sell a billion of them, and it's still trivial.
"And what did you do with your life, Dad?"
"I was the brains behind the Talking Bottle Opener!"
