I wish I could erase this movie from my mind

Rating: 1/10 (29 July 2006)

It appears that Charlie Kaufman is a one trick pony. While he poses an intriguing concept, he does nothing of value with it. For some reason, the "ardent" movie denizens who frequent this site were mesmerized by this stunt, much in the same way that they uniformly loved the sequence stunt employed in "Mememto".
Please. Can some screenwriter take an interesting concept and then actually develop it into something worth watching. Instead of developing a story, Kaufman simply plays mind games by distracting his audience with disjointed scenes that make little sense. And this is called genius? A complex story can be quite enjoyable if the screenwriter actually takes the time to make a coherent story with a plausible ending such as in "The Usual Suspects".
Sorry, before one bows at the feet of any filmmaker, you should demand more than a clever proposition. Otherwise, "The Butterfly Effect" should have won an Oscar.
