At least we have Halle Berry in leather!

Rating: Null/10 (31 July 2004)

Dear lord people, have you all lost your minds!?! Rather than talk about the movie's MANY story, acting, and writing flaws and profound "message"(thank you MNS for telling us that, yes, there are bad things in the world- you idiot!),can we discuss the BOOM MIC IN THE SHOTS!?! Did no one else see this thing? Not once, BUT ALL OVER THE PLACE! The first time I was surprised and mad, as there is ZERO excuse for such mistakes. Then, as the film went on it just kept pooping into frame, over and over!!! The most obvious point was when Hurt and Howard are sitting down against the "shed we shall not use", after Bill hurt shows her the costume. The 2 shot was nice enough, expect for the boom with the wind protector(gray fuzzy thing) dropping in! And it wasn't how many times it showed up, but FOR HOW LONG! It was in the shot(a good 1/4 to 1/2 of it by the way) for maybe 15-20 seconds! And this was by NO means the only instance at all, as I saw it in at least a half dozen scenes. Everyone in theater was laughing! How can we be expected to allow ourselves to be swallowed up by a story, if we are repeatedly reminded that it's on a set in Pennsylvania? Trash little kiddies, absolute TRASH! There is porn out there with better production values. This is inexcusable, sloppy, and he should be ashamed of himself for allowing this to happen. If it had only occurred once, that's one thing, but seeing as how I was EXPECTING it toward the end is insulting. Did anyone else see it, because I cannot believe that no one else is bring this up. Save your money, see King Arthur, I Robot, or of course Halle Berry in skin tight, half torn leather. At least then you'll be guaranteed SOMETHING worth seeing.
