Real pitiful. More telling of U.S./worldwide popular culture than a sociological study...

Rating: 1/10 (31 October 2012)

There isn't much to say really, and nobody in their right mind should lose a lot of time reviewing things like this "movie". I saw it when it came out and thought it was a piece of garbage - I had to force myself to see it through (I almost made it but not completely), which I wish I hadn't, but I guess I kept expecting it to give me something (anything) so as not to feel these people had made me waste my time. Actually I should be impartial and acknowledge that even being exposed to such sad cultural products as this you can learn a lot about the culture that produced it, although sitting through it can be, understandably, very frustrating. It receiving awards is just to top it off, actually, but doesn't change much of anything: Hollywood is obviously an industry and not an art school, so it makes sense that they celebrate garbage when it's what they are producing most of the time anyway, and it would be real odd if it weren't that way. Of course I'm generalizing here, but I think that anyone in their right mind will understand what I'm saying. Saying Hollywood, by the way, means referring to the directors, actors and so on (a lot of them celebrated as models, go figure) that are responsible for contributing to it one way or another - I'm really sorry for them and I'm not kidding you, as they are in a lot of risk of passing it to their children. Like I say in the title, things like this movie are more telling of the state of popular U.S./worldwide culture than a book-length sociological study - it's either what popular (mass) culture has become (if you want to put it that way) or what it has been led to become (if you prefer it like that). I leave the details of why this movie is worthless to other people that have posted it already and said it better than I could (Check them out).
Another thing, though unrelated. When posting this I find a warning from the site, the "don't write a spoiler" thing, which states that, if you do, your *future* reviews will be automatically discarded. Dare I ask who would want to write a review when knowing that it will be automatically discarded? Looks like the people from this site, just like the ones that made the movie, are that type of *smart*. What do YOU think?
