Too Stupid to Hate
13 April 2024
My old granny used to say if you don't have anything positive to contribute to the conversation, keep your filthy mouth hole shut. I never agreed with that point of view though, because first of all, I'm a saint and I must always tell the truth, and friends, I owe it to you to you to help you avoid wasting your time, and if that means ignoring that old moron's advice then I'm gonna be true to my values and to my commitment to you. I don't care what she made me promise in that bathroom ritual when I was 7 with the statues of the saints and writing on the wall with our blood. She was a stupid old fool and she belonged in that wheelchair, down in her stinking bed sitter flat eating her cat food to save money for her own funeral. I digress.

This is just putrid sewage. Every scene was like bad improv. The acting was quasi-farce. It's like the film version of the Winchester House with doors and stairs that lead to nowhere. Bryce Dallas Howard is talented but she's completely out of place here.

I won't leave spoilers but there are tons of tropes here that are so worn they are threadbare. If this were the first film I ever saw any of these actors in, I wouldn't watch anything that they were in ever again.

Like others have said, let in run in the background while you do your taxes or pull out your own fingernails. I promise you'll enjoy it more.

I made it half way through and then dealt it the off.
