Tripe

Rating: 1/10 (28 December 2004)

I'm having a hard time coming up with ten lines of text for this bomb. I'd rather have summed it up in one (see last two sentences of this comment). The only thing memorable about this farce is that it will likely become a cliché for bad taste. Recipe for Moulin Rouge: Come up with a vacuous story idea. Make it a "musical" by borrowing a bunch of sappy, irrelevant, historically inappropriate pop songs and wedging them into the "plot". Hire a couple of currently popular movie actors - singing ability not important. Add gobs of garish production, film effects and computer graphics. Add lots of sugar and pour (you may require a spoon to get this sticky mess out of the can). Absolute tripe! Anyone who enjoyed this movie is a bonehead.
