Open Water (2003)
An overrated movie...
People say that this movie is boring... I think that's still an overstatement.
Please, please don't believe the misleading reviews claiming that this is a touching movie intended for viewers with above-average intelligence. I think they are only sour because they were tricked into paying good money to get bored out of their wits, and want other people to share the misery.
I watched this movie with my then girlfriend, actually I dragged her to see it as I was reluctant to go home although it was late in the night. 20 minutes into the film, she was so furious with me for persuading her to watch this stupid, pointless movie (how else would you describe a movie which among others consisted of a 1-minute scene of a guy trying to swat a mosquito) that she won't let me fall asleep in the theater. She insisted that I also endure the torture.
Again, avoid at all costs. Just picture a man and a woman treading the water for 60 minutes and that's practically all that this movie has to offer. No action, no touching storyline, no sympathetic characters, no good acting. Nothing.
Air Strike (2003)
I didn't spend a dime to watch this movie and I still felt cheated...
I believe this is a major accomplishment by Hollywood. The first widely distributed commercial movie directed and written entirely by 12 year olds.
The clichés are overwhelming, the editing seems to have been done by a lazy slob - especially apparent during a scene where top army brass watch a helicopter goes down on his monitor screen - who the heck was the stupid jerk holding a camera 50 feet from a battle helicopter in a jungle during combat?
Last words: if Americans really do act the way they are portrayed in this movie, it is no wonder that many hate them so much.
