Shouldn't we have Pro, Semi-Pro, and Amateur categories?

Rating: 3/10 (19 December 2008)

Movies like TLG make me wish that we could rate movies on different scales, similar to Pro, Semi-Pro, and Amateur sports teams. (I think we could sneak a Schoolboy category in as well.) If we rated TLG in the Pro category, which I believe to be appropriate, it would get one star (or zero stars, if we were permitted to do so.) It is THAT bad and that much of a disappointment coming from Mike Myers. If, on the other hand, we ranked it in the Amateur category, it probably deserves five or six stars.
But we can't do this. The only reason that I give TLG three stars is that there ARE much worse movies out there. But most of these have been made by dilettantes with cameras. TLG was a serious effort made with a serious budget.
And I have to admit that I never really cared much for Myers, either in SNL or in any of his previous movies. (I'm one of the few people for whom Austin Powers does nothing.) But leaving that aside, TLG is just not funny and not even interesting.
Not worth your time. Believe me.
