Look Out! It's Going to...Blow!

Rating: 3/10 (26 April 2001)

Sometimes a film is such a spectacular heap of mediocrity...that it transcends that plainness and becomes a BAD film.
Where to start? Was it the monotony of the screenplay? The excessively dumb narration to underscore EVERY scene? The painful clunky dialogue? The non existent structure? The performances had highlights but none of them went anywhere. The director didn't think to shape anything...
Easily one of the least edited, least directed, least exciting films I've ever seen. I don't bore easily at movies and I was fighting off sleep at every moment. And sometimes it seemed to me that the actors onscreen were as bored as I was. Johnny Depp is normally such a fine actor and even he was just phoning it in. What a waste of celluloid. What a waste of several good actors. A waste of my time.
