Movie Rehash

So after I had recovered from Jarhead enough to want to watch another movie, Wife #1 and I watched the Brothers Grimm. Byt the time that dreadful thing ended I was pretty certain that I could never watch another DVD again.

Look, we swear we tried. We even dressed up in these moronic costumes. Nothing could save that script.

I'm not even going to talk about it, except to say that it was one of the worst movies you would ever sit all the way through. Must be because it keeps giving you slight hope that it will rise above itself, but it never does.

Then I watched The Chronicles of Narnia again. What a stupendous reminder that not all moveis have to suck! Wow! What a concept! It is still wonderful on DVD, not as good as the big screen of course, but still fabulous.

In fact, I find it amazing that any director who makes such craptacular movies like The Brothers Grimm isn't tarred, feathered, and beaten for good measure.
