Can you say "Product Placement"

I for one am getting tired of the cinematography of a movie being obscured by ads directed at kids. A few years ago it was much more subtle then it is now. It is a shame to see a actor with the caliber of Robert Downey Jr. in a "b" rated movie and likely even a "C" rated movie.. I guess after prison, one has to start right from the mail room. But for him he is sweeping the floor of the mail room. The story line is tired. Normally my kids are gluttons for this type of entertainment. but they walked away from it within 15 minutes.. I however endured.. what a waste of 90 minutes.. If your kids point to this movie at the video store and say.." How about this one? " . You can tell them with confidence.. "I'm sorry honey .. I heard that one sucks"
