One of the worst movies I have EVER seen

Rating: 1/10 (3 January 2009)

I have no remorse whatsoever in saying this is one of the most ridiculous, pretentious, un-entertaining pieces of film work I have encountered in my short life. Sure, the cinematography is beautiful, but other than that, I despise this film with every fiber of my being. The whole time, I was slowly shaking my head with a grimace on my face, fighting the urge to stop the disc, take it out of the player, and snap it in half.
All of this movie has are film elements added into a script that should be underscored by real meaning and point, none of which it has. Every other word is "f*ck", almost every scene is two or more people shouting in anger in each other's faces, unnecessary violence sprouts up like dandelions on a clean lawn, and just to see if they couldn't make it worse, they add a sex scene with no meaning behind it in an attempt to ensnare people who love nudity. There is absolutely no character development. Ever character in this movie is portrayed the same - someone frustrated or angry at someone else with a serious need for therapy. There really isn't even any plot line. It's all just a bunch of events of people being d-bags to each other with no connection between them at all. It's like emotion attempted to be shoved down one's throat with no real justification for why it should even be there.
On top of all that, things like this movie are the very reason for all the social troubles depicted therein. Racism is definitely the predominant theme, which is blown way out of proportion in this movie anyway, and the only thing this movie is likely to do is make minorities want to hold themselves more proud so that more hatred and tension will be created in today's society. Though I'm sure not all are like this, minorities in this movie are shown to hate white people and have every reason to steal and murder them with no moral obligation not to. It is even indirectly said by one African-American character that there is no moral reason at all why a black man should not rob or shoot a white person. People don't seem to realize that if these problems in our society are to be ended, people should learn to live and get along with each other rather than making utter crap like this which will cause more hatred between people, or maybe just make others feel bad or guilty for reasons they should not.
Essentially, nothing but a movie about people being a--holes to each other with no meaning behind it at all. I sure hope no one's going to pull the if-you-hate-this-movie-it-means-you're-a-racist-prick card on me, though I wouldn't be surprised, as that kind of attitude is exactly what this movie promotes. How this won Best Picture, I cannot imagine, because it is without a doubt one of the worst things ever put on a screen. This movie is a very bad influence on people, and I would not recommend anyone seeing it.
