simplistic , silly and tedious .	0
it's so laddish and juvenile , only teenage boys could possibly find it funny .	0
exploitative and largely devoid of the depth or sophistication that would make watching such a graphic treatment of the crimes bearable .	0
[garbus] discards the potential for pathological study , exhuming instead , the skewed melodrama of the circumstantial situation .	0
a visually flashy but narratively opaque and emotionally vapid exercise in style and mystification .	0
the story is also as unoriginal as they come , already having been recycled more times than i'd care to count .	0
about the only thing to give the movie points for is bravado -- to take an entirely stale concept and push it through the audience's meat grinder one more time .	0
not so much farcical as sour .	0
unfortunately the story and the actors are served with a hack script .	0
all the more disquieting for its relatively gore-free allusions to the serial murders , but it falls down in its attempts to humanize its subject .	0
a sentimental mess that never rings true .	0
while the performances are often engaging , this loose collection of largely improvised numbers would probably have worked better as a one-hour tv documentary .	0
interesting , but not compelling .	0
on a cutting room floor somewhere lies . . . footage that might have made no such thing a trenchant , ironic cultural satire instead of a frustrating misfire .	0
while the ensemble player who gained notice in guy ritchie's lock , stock and two smoking barrels and snatch has the bod , he's unlikely to become a household name on the basis of his first starring vehicle .	0
there is a difference between movies with the courage to go over the top and movies that don't care about being stupid	0
nothing here seems as funny as it did in analyze this , not even joe viterelli as de niro's right-hand goombah .	0
such master screenwriting comes courtesy of john pogue , the yale grad who previously gave us " the skulls " and last year's " rollerball . " enough said , except : film overboard !	0
here , common sense flies out the window , along with the hail of bullets , none of which ever seem to hit sascha .	0
this 100-minute movie only has about 25 minutes of decent material .	0
the execution is so pedestrian that the most positive comment we can make is that rob schneider actually turns in a pretty convincing performance as a prissy teenage girl .	0
on its own , it's not very interesting . as a remake , it's a pale imitation .	0
it shows that some studios firmly believe that people have lost the ability to think and will forgive any shoddy product as long as there's a little girl-on-girl action .	0
a farce of a parody of a comedy of a premise , it isn't a comparison to reality so much as it is a commentary about our knowledge of films .	0
as exciting as all this exoticism might sound to the typical pax viewer , the rest of us will be lulled into a coma .	0
the party scenes deliver some tawdry kicks . the rest of the film . . . is dudsville .	0
our culture is headed down the toilet with the ferocity of a frozen burrito after an all-night tequila bender — and i know this because i've seen 'jackass : the movie . '	0
the criticism never rises above easy , cynical potshots at morally bankrupt characters . . .	0
the movie's something-borrowed construction feels less the product of loving , well integrated homage and more like a mere excuse for the wan , thinly sketched story . killing time , that's all that's going on here .	0
stupid , infantile , redundant , sloppy , over-the-top , and amateurish . yep , it's " waking up in reno . " go back to sleep .	0
somewhere in the middle , the film compels , as demme experiments he harvests a few movie moment gems , but the field of roughage dominates .	0
the action clichés just pile up .	0
payami tries to raise some serious issues about iran's electoral process , but the result is a film that's about as subtle as a party political broadcast .	0
the only surprise is that heavyweights joel silver and robert zemeckis agreed to produce this ; i assume the director has pictures of them cavorting in ladies' underwear .	0
another useless recycling of a brutal mid-'70s american sports movie .	0
i didn't laugh . i didn't smile . i survived .	0
please , someone , stop eric schaeffer before he makes another film .	0
most of the problems with the film don't derive from the screenplay , but rather the mediocre performances by most of the actors involved	0

curling may be a unique sport but men with brooms is distinctly ordinary .	0
though the opera itself takes place mostly indoors , jacquot seems unsure of how to evoke any sort of naturalism on the set .	0

takes one character we don't like and another we don't believe , and puts them into a battle of wills that is impossible to care about and isn't very funny .	0
the things this movie tries to get the audience to buy just won't fly with most intelligent viewers .	0
even if the enticing prospect of a lot of nubile young actors in a film about campus depravity didn't fade amid the deliberate , tiresome ugliness , it would be rendered tedious by avary's failure to construct a story with even a trace of dramatic interest .	0
sitting through the last reel ( spoiler alert ! ) is significantly less charming than listening to a four-year-old with a taste for exaggeration recount his halloween trip to the haunted house .	0
confuses its message with an ultimate desire to please , and contorting itself into an idea of expectation is the last thing any of these three actresses , nor their characters , deserve .	0

a movie more to be prescribed than recommended -- as visually bland as a dentist's waiting room , complete with soothing muzak and a cushion of predictable narrative rhythms .	0
