chilling(ly bad...)

Rating: 2/10 (27 May 2004)

i can't believe i bore witness to a (supposedly serious) film that features a group of people being chased down a corridor by a cool breeze. i knew the science was flawed before i went in, so at least that didn't detract me too much from the experience. but never mind the snow and tidal waves, it's the gallons and gallons of cheese you have to watch out for. who can forget such classics as "I have to hug you for warmth" or the various mundane and sickeningly sentimental sacrifices all the characters make? I can't understand what on earth i was supposed to gain from the film. Perhaps Bjorn Lomborg was wrong: maybe they _should_ have just made a film featuring Brad Pitt battling a sewage problem instead. Don't get me wrong, I even enjoyed Armageddon. the key to enjoying this film is to treat it as if it's supposed to be that bad on purpose. therefore, i can award this two stars instead of 0. Oh no, what's that coming for me??? Phew, it was just the fridge door was left open...
