"Pretty Woman" for the nerds

Rating: 3/10 (29 March 2005)

For those of you that may remember, "Pretty Woman" was a movie about a prostitute marrying a millionaire. Nothing wrong with that, except the story and the way it was presented was responsible for the worst brainpollution since Madonna. I mean, any stupid, fat, mediocre women would identify with Julia Roberts' character. Which means that you would have a "I am a bitch but also a saint" attitude from all the women around you, regardless of how uninteresting they were.
Matrix 1 was OK. Story was OK, and everything else seemed to fit into place(except of course, Keanu R., who never fits in anything except maybe as a vegetable or a surfer). But this Matrix really was terrible. Imagine average young office workers in cubicles watching this movie, dreaming about kicking everyone's ass, shagging Wonder Woman and saving the world in the same time. There is nothing wrong with daydreaming so you can escape from reality, except you have to do it in good taste. And this movie is definitely bad taste.
3 points are for: - Lawrence Fishburn, Monica Belucci (I don't care how she acts, when you look like that, you can afford to act badly ), the special effects (which I might add, as awesome as they were in this movie, are normally intended to be supportive of the story, not THE STORY) -
Bad points: Dialogue: "Why am I here?"; "You don't know?"; "No"; You think you don't, but you do.";"Do I?" GET ON WITH IT YOU MORONS!!!!!!!!
Story: what story? Oh right, Neo meets a guy at the end and he tells him he was a moron all along. Now that was about the only part of the story that had any meaning to me.
Sun glasses: Will someone please explain to me why all were wearing sunglasses? And I don't need a SF nerdy explanation, just explain to me how somebody could be so stupid to imagine the characters like that. I would not like to meet him in a dark alley.
I am sick just thinking about this movie, I'll stop here.
