Forgettable

Rating: 1/10 (2 December 2002)

Slight spoilers. I wanted to like this movie. I really did, for my ex-boyfriend's sake, and for the fact that David Lynch is apparently considered a genius. But the movie was just dreadfully boring. I don't know how it made the imdb's top 150 because it seems like the general consensus here was that it wasn't particularly good.
As I recall, the acting was sort of lackidasical, as if the actors wanted to be somewhere else. The lesbian scene seemed awkward and out of place...it didn't belong in the movie, it seemed like Lynch just put it there just for the sake of arousing the male viewers. It lended nothing whatsoever to the plot. I never did finish watching the movie, because the lesbian scene fueled a fight between my boyfriend and I when I told him that I thought it had nothing to do with the plot and was, in a way sexist. I now cringe whenever I hear the name David Lynch and I don't think I'll be viewing any of his other movies. Unless someone could convince me that his other movies are more worth my while.
