What Was The Point?

Rating: 1/10 (27 May 2006)

I never liked the characters, I found myself looking for a plot, I never cared for the characters and now less for the actors and I tried to get through this movie THREE times on a DVD that I am sure to give away to a sophomoric, boring friend who just adores, sophomoric, boring movies that he describes as hysterical, funny, outrageous and the total bomb. As for me, I fast forwarded through the last 1/2 of this tripe.
In previous show biz nomenclature, this movie SHOULD have been a bomb.
Where is the plot?
Where is the funny?
Where is the attraction to this movie?
Perhaps, the answer is within this empty-hearted generation?
Perhaps, I have just gotten too old...a lot of pretty pictures of some pretty people (don't include the stars here), wearing pretty clothes in pretty places doing pretty things, with some "hip" music every once in a while. Not pretty.
This movie has convinced me how horrible Vince Vaughn is as an "actor". He is as pointless an actor as Will Ferrell. He is as attractive as Bill Murray. What's with those dark circles under his eyes? That's attractive? Are we ignoring something here? His voice is as grating to the ears as nails down a blackboard!
If this generation wants performers like this, they can have them! One (1) lovely, pristine star...because I couldn't give it Zero (0) stars.
