Where's Alfie?

Rating: 2/10 (25 February 2007)

Why do I want to find Alfie? Well, I want to ask him what's it all about? I just don't have a clue what this film was trying to do or say.
Last Sunday I walked out of 'The Science of Sleep'. Today (Sunday), I went to see 'The Number 23'. My Sundays must be cursed as I picked another humdinger of a film.
The plot? Em...eh...I'll have a think about that and I'll get back to you. In fact, I think that film should be buried in a plot.
My mind wandered throughout this film. I was thinking about my shopping list, the next film I'll go to see and I also made a mental note never to buy 'The Number 23' when it comes out on DVD!!
The biggest disappointment was Virginia Madsen. How could someone who had appeared in a film as good as 'Sideways' appear in rubbish like 'The Number 23'?
This was a serious film for Jim Carrey, so why did I find myself laughing. It wasn't just me - fellow audience members laughed too.
This gets a looking at my watch score of 4 or was it 5? I am a credit watcher, well I was up until 'The Number 23'. I couldn't get out of the cinema quick enough.
This film is 90-odd minutes too long.
