Now Playing at Hell's Multiplex...
3 November 2006
How much does this movie suck? Words fail me. I took a date to this movie. She didn't like me afterward. You don't watch this movie. You ENDURE this thing, like an abscessed tooth. The most extensive vocabulary in the universe could not find words to describe the putridity of this film, but I will try.

Let's see: The characters are unbelievable. The plot is a goof. The subplots are thin at best. Afleck looks like he's been hit over the head with a two by four. And what do you say about the acting talent of his fat butt leading lady? Only that in her case, "acting talent" is an oxymoron, like "civilized divorce".

I don't know what I find the most revolting. The fact that this bomb cost 54 million, yes, kiddies, I said MILLION, dollars to make, or that some studio geek OKAYED it?! Afleck is a good actor. He's got some range, and a flair for comedy. But he walks around like a zombie. Perhaps this is how one looks when dying of embarrassment on film. Lopez must have some sort of, ahem, skills. She does seem to torture one male after another in her personal life. But she is a marginal singer, at best, and an ABYSMAL actress.

Up until now, I thought the worst movie of all time was that Sybil Shepard horror, "At Long Last Love". That puppy kept the top spot for a long time on my list. But this complete disaster makes it look like "Casablanca".

I'm a Catholic, so naturally I believe in Hell. I now have another reason to live a good life and not end up there. This odious waste of time you will not get back has got to be the number one film in Hell's Multiplex. If they'd used this thing in "A Clockwork Orange", Malcom McDowell would have been selling Bibles in about ten minutes.

NEVER watch this film! It has NO redeeming moments! You will want to chug anti-freeze before the first half hour has D...R...A...G...G...E...D on by. On a scale of One to Ten, I give this a 12 Barf Bag rating. It's a wonder to me that mobs did not storm the theaters with torches for robbing them of nine bucks to see this mess.

The only good thing you could do with this movie is to take every copy and give them all to really poor people who have no heat so they can burn them to stay warm this winter. Oh, and the DVD's make very nice coasters, too.
