"It Was The Worst Movie Experience In History" ♦ 7%

Rating: 1/10 (26 February 2014)

Well, that be it if I were to relate to the tag line of this ultimate propaganda film of the year. Too bad it didn't release last year; I miss so hard how this would have been ridiculed by the critics and the awards juries and would be thrown straight out of Oscar race. Any awards race, for that matter.
7 people in the theater. 40 minutes later, 3 of them left. Since the beginning, not a single movie-watcher cared as I took notice in all of their faces/airs. The characters were probably given a game-bet where they should idiosyncratically enact the glorious event of the history. No script, awful screenplay, poor cinematography & a torturous background score. Just because it is a war film doesn't mean you stick trumpets into it.
Lots of pretentious jokes about cigarettes and all seemed to be in-jokes because they made no sense. Not a single dialog worth quoting as is uncommon in Goerge Clooney films. No character depth, no real humor, no action sequence, as well. George Clooney walked throughout the film like he is loitering his time away. Matt Damon played a cameo. What was Bill Murray doing here? Hopeless!
More, even the characters were finding it friendly to joke and tease about themselves. There was not a single shard of seriousness in any of the scene except during the chronicling of the loss, which was tremendously pompous.
Just because I never get out of a movie mid-way I watched it for the whole 2 hours and left the place utterly disappointed. And then there is one speech-song that plays somewhere in the middle that pushed me to the brink of getting out. One last thing, the narration of the event in the film in the modified, deadpan voice of Clooney was the worst thing in the film.
BOTTOM LINE: Do not waste your money on this. Try torrenting. No point on waiting & buying the BluRay either. Not recommended! Each of the ensemble cast disappoints; even John Goodman.
