Corn & Cheese

Rating: 1/10 (20 October 2012)

I went into this movie with high expectations due to the ratings from IMDb and Rotten Tomatoes, so I thought such respectable and trustworthy sources can't be wrong. However, in this instance, oh my, were they off the mark. For me anyway. I just thought the movie was completely unoriginal and pretentious; there have been many movies before - The Fountain to name one - that have explored the same themes and executed to greater effect. After many (convoluted and schmaltzy) story lines about what might have happened in Nemo's (even the name is pretentious) life if he had made different decisions, in the end you'll find that the whole thing was absolutely pointless; the story takes you on this long long twisty journey only to lead you back to where you were. What makes it worse is the script; the lines and acting were so so corny they'll choke a mule!
