I'm Reed Fish (2006)
1/10
Absolutely Horrendous.

Movie: I'm Reed Fish. Most Appalling Fact: Based off of a true story. Pretty darn close to a true story, actually.

Honestly, this is the one person that I wish I have never met. This movie is a so-called "Romantic Comedy," which appears to be the exact opposite. It is of deceit and betrayal, and it may have been the driest movie ever created if it wasn't for some unexpected humor from the anomalous characters—Frank Cortez and Andrew. I couldn't help my uncontrollable anger for this movie that I had to come home to get on the internet to let out a rant. At the beginning, it's quirky, maybe a few "wow,-this-is-stupid,-why-are-we watching-this" type of thing. And then, Reed's "high school crush returns to Mud Meadows on the eve of his marriage to the small town's sweetheart," (plot outline) and it all goes down hill from there. You hate everybody by the end of the movie for their stupidity and devious actions. You will feel nauseous that one person could stoop that low and then never learn from his mistakes, and not even at the end. I mean a Romantic movie? Are you kidding me? There are extremely idiotic reviews which I keep stumbling upon, raving its excellence. I am extremely confused and disgusted. The movie wants you to trust no boy to be faithful in marriage, and not to trust even your best high school friends.

While I am at it, the "high school crush" is basically throwing herself at him, and then he is like trying to accept it and she is like appalled by it. Then, she wants him. Then she is like "No, let's not see each other." Then he goes back to the first girl and is crying because he is so upset. He leaves her asparagus on her doorstep as an inside joke typed, "i-love-you-please-forgive-me" action. Then, he doesn't want to be with the girl that he is marrying. NAUSEOUS? If not, waste your money supporting an extremely irritating, annoying, disgusting, aggravating, sickening, stomach-turning, infuriating, frustrating, appalling, nauseating film of "romance and comedy."

I actually wish I can give it a 0 out of 10 for this one, that's how horrible it was. I was really upset that an actress as good as Alexis Bledel, would be absolutely wasted to this low of an extent...
