Turd Sandwich of a Movie

Rating: 1/10 (18 August 2009)

Shamsee, you are dead on here. Tough to believe that Ebert or any other critics liked this flick, it's one of the worst movies I've seen in a while. The plot is terribly flawed and unbelievable, it's impossible to get into, forced and predictable. Foxx won an academy award for his performance in this? Must have been a bad movie year...
Or was this a case of the Hollywood inner circle being overly gracious with it's 'elite'? It doesn't make any sense to me. Also interestingly, most of the discussion on IMDb is about what a good movie Collateral is. I use ratings on here to decide if I want to spend time on a film because most are usually fairly accurate. This was not the case with Collateral. I was unpleasantly surprised when I attempted to dig into this turd sandwich of a movie. Please don't waste your time on this one. Rent Watchmen instead.
