Moulin Rouge! (2001)
Painful to watch
How far can someone who can't write their own music drag other peoples' compositions through the mud? If you'd like to find out, watch Moulin Rouge! I'm surprised to see the title "composer" in the credits. I didn't hear a single original note in the entire movie. Some of the lyrics were changed, yes, but in that respect the film only succeeds in being Weird Al Yankovic on REALLY bad psychedelic drugs. If the plot weren't so weak and cliche, perhaps it might have redeemed the film a little, but no such luck. A total waste of time.
The Transporter (2002)
The best action movie of 2002!
Once again Luc Besson asserts his mastery of the action genre.
The great thing about The Transporter is that the action never stops. It only takes a breather for a few minutes at a time to develop the plot. The fact that it HAS a coherent plot sets it apart from most action movies I've seen recently. The one liners aren't too cheesy, the action is just enough over the top to entertain you without insulting your intelligence, and the trailer didn't give away even a fraction of the great scenes in the movie. The good guys are likable, the bad guys are detestable. The character interaction is enjoyable at all times. Jason Statham is certainly establishing himself as an action movie leading man. I hope more roles like this will follow for him.
If you like action, this movie is a MUST SEE!
Car 54, Where Are You? (1994)
I want a refund
For the time I wasted. This is the only movie I have ever walked out of a theater on. I've been compelled to sit through terrible movies simply out of curiosity, i.e. could it get any worse? But I walked out of Car 54 for fear that it WOULD get worse. I'm glad my brother worked at a movie theater at the time. I didn't have to pay for the time I wasted.
