A masterpiece

Rating: 1/10 (1 July 2010)

A masterpiece of patronizing, manipulative, short-sighted, teenage dreamy world absurdity. I'm amazed of how cardboard, insincere, and cookie-cutter all the characters were able to become with such brilliant direction.
This movie was beyond compare in it's ability to expose deepness and richness of human experience (of how goody-good people are good and baddie-bad people are bad in a black and white world with easily defined borders, predictable outcomes and obvious mannerisms). Dude, Shakespeare would of been proud!!
Great Christian values by the way, it so reminds me of the bible story where the goody-good guy said yes to his father, did good and saved the day, and the baddie-bad guy said no and did baddie bad stuff. Plain and simple. Just like in 'REAL' life.
We all know that wearing crucifix's and conservative clothing and crossing our t's and dotting our i's with 'Jesus' and 'Mary' make us much much much much better than everyone else. That's why I read the bible, go to church and act like an asinine self-consumed jerk all the time. How else could I feel good about myself? Like keeping busy with my own personal salvation and profound spiritual perfection is going to give me time to be humble, sincere and truly care about the little people at the same time. Right. Whatever!
I'd give it a 0 out of 10, but the scale doesn't go that low.
