This Movie is Stupid....

Rating: 1/10 (6 March 2017)

Now I know what you're thinking, didn't the critics go nuts over this movie. Yes they did, but they were wrong. Completely and totally. A long time ago, I watched this Siskel and Ebert review, they were talking about some old documentary about Nuclear weapons. Neither one of them liked it, they said it just went on and on about how nuclear weapons are bad without adding anything else meaningful or insightful. That's the problem with this movie. Of course people have a fascination with violence. Whether it's the Romans watching the gladiators killing each other in the Colosseum back in the day or the thousand or so TV shows there are about Nazi's. We all know it, we see it on the news every night. This movie wants to point that out. And.that's it. People like violence in the news and that's bad. Oh and Jake tries to do a Hannibal Lector impression. A very bad one. His idea of a being a psycho is just to stare at things with big eyes and to enunciate every word to death. His performance is terrible. Just terrible. His character is not interesting, nor engaging. He is not even fun to hate. He is just kind of weird. Not much else. He screws around LA. Shoots some violence stuff, sells it to Rene Russo. Some cheap commentary, is made. And the movie ends, with nothing learned and nothing gained.
This movie is not good. It's different though, very different. And the critics sometimes mistakes that for quality.
