I thought the Lovely Bones was pretty terrible, tbh. Peter Jackson was trying to pull off LotR-scale cinematic effects in such a small, relatively simple story and it didn't seem to work or piece itself together well. I was half-expecting to see the Counsel of Elrond or some shizz like that pop up.
And the Human Centipede. Three words; ass to mouth.
I also didn't understand the hype over Brokeback Mountain. I mean, I enjoyed the little tumble down the hill, but apart from that the characters weren't particularly likeable, and if there was a storyline, I didn't particularly notice it. But I hate stories that are purely character-driven anyway - there has to be some other plot device going on for me to not get bored with a film, if that makes sense. Milk was a far superior 'gay' film, and its a shame it never got a fraction of the public attention.That dragon ball thing...what was it called now? I forget but it was truly crap.
Also, really didn't like Brokeback Mountain. I'm sorry everyone but I still think if it was just about a heterosexual couple, no one would have cared about it. Essentially, to me, it wasn't this groundbreaking romantic drama - it was two blokes cheating on their wives and destroying families. That's not something I can find anything good about. The acting was not exceptional, it was just normal. Jake and Heath didn't do anything especially awesome to warrant such rave reviews. If I want to see exceptional, in-character, utterly believable and absorbing acting, I'll watch Angelina Jolie in A Mighty Heart or Meryl Streep in Sophie's Choice.
Oh my gosh I'd forgotten about that one - I watched it with someone who thought it was awesome and whilst they were busy laughing and pointing out the jokes, I was just sitting there going, "wut?" It was crap - I just don't get what was so awesome about it. The whole Vote for Pedro thing? Don't get it. Still don't get it. Why was that such a thing for so long?Napoleon Dynamite is by far the worst movie I've ever seen.
