Just Plain Dumb

Rating: 1/10 (26 April 2011)

My family and I just watched this film and within the first few minutes, I could see why this movie bombed at the box office. We forced ourselves to watch it to the end, and we all agreed that we just lost a couple of hours of our life that we will never get back. To try and describe just how much this movie sucked is difficult. I like Edgar Wright's films, and I like Michael Cera, and Jason Scwartzman, so to see them in this ridiculously stupid film was especially painful. Nothing about the movie made any sense, and there is nothing even remotely redeeming about it. I have posted on Twitter and Facebook about how terrible this film is in order to hopefully save my friends from having to endure this mess of a film. Sometimes films tank at the box office and they are good films, but this time the audience got it right by not paying to see this disaster in theaters. Lucky for us, we got it via Netflix so the dollars we wasted on this nightmare were minimal. Avoid this mess and you will be glad you did. You are not missing anything and nobody, but nobody, is going to be talking about it around the water cooler at work. Save yourself and avoid this train wreck!
