A glorification of being mean?

Rating: 1/10 (25 June 2010)

It appears that many people like this movie. The only explanation I can give of this is that people have watched so many movies that they have become completely numb, and the only thing that tickles their brain is shock value. Basically, this is the same reason people watch slasher horror movies. I find the movie critics have this same flaw in their thinking. That is judging a movie as good just because it is "different".
Well, I'll tell you what makes this movie different. It is so painful to watch that movie makers in the past wouldn't even consider making it. This main character has no redeeming values and is so completely vile that he's not even believable. The preacher is so annoying and pious that he is also very hard to watch.
If this movie was based on a true story it might have some value because it would be a study of reality. Its not though. Its complete fiction. Its like somebody took all their bad child hood experience, hates and prejudices and attempted to hold the audience down and force feed all those dark unhappy feelings down their throat.
Its like watching a completely spoiled child throw a temper tantrum, but instead of being able to ignore them or walk away, you are forced to have the tantrum thrown right in front of your face.
In other words. This movie was disgusting. Feelings such as these do not need to be shared. People that behave like this should be ignored, not paid attention too, and not have movies made about them.
For those out there looking for the latest kick because the drugs have worn off and hardly anything can possibly get the dopamine flowing again. Watch this movie, or maybe snort some pepper spray.
