Pirates of the Caribbean: The Curse of the Black Pearl (2003)
A chick flick
A boring movie based on an amusement park ride. This chick flick features all the stuff the sighs and droopy eyes can muster: Swashbuckling sword scenes (yawn), Romantic goo-goo eyes (yawn), and 40 year-old dream boat Johnny Depp, doing a lousy job of faking an English accent.......
La course en tête (1974)
For bicycle fanatics only
This movie takes the form of a documentary of Eddy Merckx, the greatest cyclist in the sport. Except for some of the accompanying music and creepy sound effects, it shows the life of a premier cyclist in the early seventies, when the Lemonds and Armstrongs didn't quite bring the visibility of the sport to the US.
The movie simply lets you appreciate the great cyclist for who he is.
Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back (2001)
Not to be seen......
I guess being older somewhat dulls the senses to what is hip or not, but I found the film bad. Vulgar is sometimes vulgar and this movie is. I was embarrassed to be in the room with teenage girls watching this, because it didn't deliver enough laughs or have a clever enough premise to cover the foul language.
I think the voting on this is the "emperor's new clothes" syndrome. It just isn't cool to be contrary to the new hip talent. While the stars do have some talent, it wasn't cute when Eddie Murphy used to do stand up and say, "s***, f***, ha, ha , ha " and it isn't now.
It is also a lame attempt at counter-culture quasi-intellectualism. Who the heck cares if these people are really intelligent or not. The movie isn't entertaining and that's what these artists are suppose to be doing, not qualifying me for mensa.
