Bigelows Bomb.......Bang ! ! !

Rating: 2/10 (17 April 2012)

This was SO realistic. But unfortunately, it was one of the worst movies to win Best Picture at the Acadamy Awards. What we have here is a "nutjob" who has a death wish (or has a serious mental illness.) I didn't care if he lived or died. The actual character is never explored beyond the shallow ..so all we know is that he is a modern day war junkie cretin. Kathryn Bigelow went for complete realism.....and she got it. So what ? We don't go to the cinema to watch idiots pretending to be heroes. The truth is--this is instantly forgettable. If you DID get your kicks watching this-------perhaps a visit to your doctor may be a sensible course of action for you. So---some people yearn to be blown to pieces (big deal). Some people like frogs.
