Made of Honor (2008)
Deep Six this Movie...
26 December 2008
Sometimes I'm literally amazed at the load of horse dung that comes out of Hollywood. This movie is no exception. This was clearly a formula movie, something produced to generate revenue and nothing else. I'm guessing someone in Hollywood was sitting around, trying to come up with new angles on old spins, and they blurted out, "Let's make a man the Made of Honor." Then they wrote a dry, bland, done a thousand times before script. The sad thing is, people actually pay to go see this stuff. Don't waste your time.

The acting is ho hum. The storyline is a mirror of so many other stories. And the overall intelligence of the characters and their life path decisions is insulting. And the ending…well, it's pure fantasy. Something only school girls' dream of. Which is probably the target audience for this movie.

When I watch movies like this, and yes, unfortunately, sometimes I do, it makes me wish they would have just donated the money to the homeless or the starving. It would have been money better spent. If you're going to watch this movie, get ready to do some serious snoozing. And maybe some "dejavuing" too. I give it a D. And that was being nice.

I'm clueless...

Well, now I know why this movie hit the dollar theater so quickly. My girlfriend and I went to see it last night. And hoping for a nail-biting, edge of our seat mystery thriller, we were instead greeted with a confusing, poorly cast soupbowl of meaningless twists and turns and plot less dead-ends. And that's putting it nicely. My girlfriend leaned over to me several times during the movie and asked if we could leave. I considered her request, but decided to hold out in hopes that there would be some sort of finale at the end. Maybe even a "bonus" like an explanation. But there was nothing. This movie was so loopy and unfollowable, that I closed my eyes several times hoping it would go away. I always thought movies were supposed to entertain you with some sort of coherent storyline, but I guess not. Anyway, the nitty is: this is a pretty dismal movie. I'm in shock that DePalma saw any kind of entertainment value in this flicker show.
