At least once a week I will be reviewing films recently released on dvd or books that have come out. I will do this to save you the time of actually seeing it or reading it if it sucks. Okay, here it goes.
The Descendants Oh sweet jesus this movie was painful to watch. I still do not get all the hypeover it. Was I supposed to laugh, think , cry... slit my wrist and hope I bled out before the closing credits? It had potential but with the exception of a few witty one liners I have to be honest and tell you I thought the movie sucked. George Clooney was good as usual and that is where it ends. Is here validated at the end? Did he even seek validation? What is with the father in law? Too many questions and not enough enjoyment... Big T says skip this one and wait until it comes to cable.
Carnage I looked forward to this because I had heard that the play was brilliant. Unfortunately, the movie was not. If I really wanted to spend an hour and a half watching drunk people argue in a living room I would have just had a family reunion. This is the best that Roman Polanski can some up with now? This movie not only doesn't go any where, it never even starts. Polanski should be thankful he is not allowed back on U.S. soil after this flop, the heckling alone would be worse than the prison sentence awaiting him.
