Give me a break

Rating: 1/10 (15 June 2008)

What a mess! This film had no plot, no direction, and went absolutely nowhere. I can't believe people are giving it a good rating (is it because of the acting? - which was good but nothing spectacular).
Usually the egghead types can get away by saying they love a bad film because it's artsy. However, there is absolutely no deep message, or redeeming value in this movie... so what's there excuse? I read one review that stated that those giving this movie a bad review just can't appreciate good character development. What character development? The main character started out as a selfish asshole, continued to be a selfish asshole throughout the movie, and ended as one - so how did he develop? Yes, a good movie should have it's characters develop, but focusing on the main character without a plot is a snooze-fest. I can't believe I stayed awake throughout this entire movie just for that horrible ending.
The only thing I can think of is the politically correct message of bashing Christianity (America's favorite pastime these days). In this movie Christianity was bashed literally and the politically correct crowd must have loved it because I can see no other reason why anyone with an intellect higher than that of a chimp would see anything worthwhile in this movie.
