The Movie Sucked, But Not Because Of....

[Deleted]

I'll see your In the Cut and raise you a Collateral. Hated, hated that movie for the massive plotholes that occurred roughly every 1.5 minutes, but at least Ruffalo (who I didn't remember seeing before) was around to ease the pain.

I absolutely agree. And we can probably add 13 Going On 30 and XX/XY to the list of crappy movies made just about bearable by him. Conclusion? Mark Ruffalo owns this thread.

I caught a glimpse of Comedy Central's airing of Sorority Boys last night and immediately flashed back to when I was forced to watch it. After I stopped shaking and the nausea subsided, I realized that Michael Rosenbaum was not the reason the movie sucked. He was the only think remotely humorous in that steaming pile of crap.

Saw Welcome to Collinwood last night and was horrified at the absolute waste of talent, and two good hours of my life.

Sam Rockwell, George Clooney, William H Macy, Patricia Clackson...did none of these people read the script before they signed on? I am big fans of all of them, and think they're all talented actors (well, Clooney is just nice to look at), so...WTF?

One of the last bits of dialogue was so flabbergastingly cliched I actually screamed out loud. In fact...I have to stop writing about this movie as I am starting to get pissed all over again...

Saw Wimbledon for the first time & it sucked as much as I suspected it would, but definitely not because of Paul Bettany, who was, to quote Who Framed Roger Rabbit, "Better than perfect." That goes double for Sam Neill.

Sorry, Topher Grace but Win a Date with Tad Hamilton! will be the clunker of your acting resume.

Ooh - I thought that Topher Grace was one of the reasons that Win a Date... did suck. Not going to be a popular opinion, but he was all kinds of sucky in that part. I was actually rooting agianst him FOR Tad Hamilton (and I really like Topher). Not sure what happened there. But hey, I really like Welcome to Collinwood so what do I know?

Back to the topic. I am only going to say this once...
War of the Worlds sucked, but not because of Tom Cruise.

I agree on the suckage of Wimbledon but I would add James MacAvoy to the list of non-suck (just behind the utterly delicious Paul Bettany who was so good I almost bought the relationship between him and Dr. Sunken Tits).

Punch Drunk Love, but not because of Philip Seymour Hoffman. This movie has to be up there with Ballistic: Ecks vs. Sever as the worst movie ever made in the history of all mankind, but Philip Seymour Hoffman bit the bullet and turned in his usual inspired performance.

I think Brad Dourif pretty much owns this thread. Poor guy.

The Girl Next Door sucked, but not because of Timothy Olyphant. The movie itself was basically your standard "redeem a helpless whore" sexist sludge, but TO was freaking hilarious as awesomely crazy porn director Kelly. It's kind of a classic case of the villain being too charismatic - I kept thinking "I'd totally do porn with Kelly, what's wrong with that girl?", which kind of ruined the whole premise of the movie.

While Troy sucked like a two-dollar hooker on speed, it wasn't because of Eric Bana, Sean Bean or Peter O'Toole.

Le Divorce doesn't work at all for me because the audience is supposed to like Kate Hudson but find Naomi Watts shallow and uninteresting.

Problem is, Naomi is radiantly beautiful[/color] in every scene and when they are onscreen together, she makes the plain Kate look invisible.
