Gawd Awful BORING Movie

Rating: 1/10 (23 July 2005)

I rented this because I thought I'd score some points in choosing a chick flick this time. The reviews were positive. My wife asked me why this was a "chick flick." I said, "I guess because there's no car chases and nobody dies in the first fifteen minutes." Forty-five minutes later there was still no car chases, but we'd died several times over of boredom. Two people walking through Paris and yak yak yak yak yak yak yak yak, blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blahing about big "MEANINGFUL" topics that they didn't believe and couldn't make me believe they believed. My wife was insulted. "Is this what they think women like?" So my she says, "I'm going to take a shower; let me know if anything actually happens." Fifteen minutes later, nothing had. "You missed the car chase," I lied when she returned. She gave me 'that look.'
Why did they make this movie? Why did I waste $2.57 to rent it? Because, despite the fact that we wound up turning it off it seemed I had scored some points for trying... Now I bet you wish you could see the trailers for THAT action-packed thriller.
