Absolut Worst Movie Ever
I have seen about 3,000 movies in my lifetime, but this is the absolute worst movie I have ever seen (I really am not exaggerating) . I had actually seen this movie and knew how bad it was BEFORE I bought this DVD. I honestly bought this DVD to show my friends how bad the movie was because they couldn't believe my description of it. I feel sorry for Mel Gibson. I bet he wishes this movie never existed. His role in the movie was bad at best, and was still the best actor in the movie - by far. The movie is depressing, but not Schindler's List depressing - this is absolutely uninteresting. There is no excitement, sadness, happiness, intelligence, etc. This movie is absolutely devoid of any emotions at all. It is a story of a bunch of strange, mentally ill people who live in a depressingly old hotel. One guy jumps off of the roof and Mel Gibson tries to figure out why. If you think you will get to enjoy a good murder mystery movie - forget it, this is no intellectual who-dunnit. The only 10 seconds that even made me crack a half of a smile is the mentally ill guy who thinks he is John Lennon. I finally figured out why the guy jumped off of the roof - it was because he had to watch this movie! If you don't mind spending the money on this movie, you should buy it, just to say that you own a copy of the worst movie ever produced (I did). After talking with several people the only other contender to this is a 12 hour long sci-fi movie with a cheesy title like "my alien mother ate your head" or something. I have never seen the sci-fi movie and don't know the exact title, but I imagine it might be in the running as well as this one. I feel like I need a Thorazine just to get through this movie without ripping my eyes out and stabbing my brain with the remote control. You can forget a deprivation chamber or water-boarding, Guantanamo should use this movie to get some real answers.
