A monumental and cinematic disaster.

Rating: 1/10 (4 September 2001)

A monumental and cinematic disaster - I'm refering to Mike Nichols' so-called classic comedy "THE GRADUATE", which left me in a state of disbelief. The film marks the first major film for Dustin Hoffman, who horribly portrays a uncertain college graduate who gets himself caught up in tug-of-war between his girlfriend (Katherine Ross) whom he loves than her seductive mother (Anne Brancroft) who doesn't sound very convincing - at all. Besides that, I can't understand why this is a comedy and it degrades people. If there was someone that I felt sorry for is Ross and not Hoffman. Not even the Simon & Garfunkel songs and Dave Grusin's musical score couldn't make me enjoy this wreck.
