The Worst Movie I've Ever Seen

Rating: 1/10 (22 November 2008)

I can honestly say there are not words to describe how terrible this movie really was, and I'm crushed. I loved the books and was so hopeful going in, but after coming out I felt I needed to go home and watch a decent movie to get the awkwardness out of my head. Really, it wasn't the actors' faults. They did their best with what they were given, but with the cheesy script, terrible direction (I think this director should consider combining forces with Uwe Boll), sub par make-up and costuming, and more close ups than a covergirl commercial there was no way that the cast could salvage the film.
If you're considering going to see this movie before it leaves theaters (which will hopefully be soon), you should definitely see a matinée. And, really, just save the money and rent it when it comes out. I'm sure that irregardless of how terrible this movie is they will still continue the adaptations, because they're going to make money. I just hope that some of that money will go into hiring more experienced and qualified staff next time.
