Confessions of a Shopaholic (2009, U.S.)

I never would have watched this on my own, because I knew I was going to hate it. They were showing it on the airplane, however, so I decided to watch it to kill time. Kill is definitely the right word. I want my time back.

The premise is ridiculous. The characters are shallow, and the actors aren't even that great. The jokes are stupid. They all live happily ever after even though they most certainly do not deserve to.

Absolutely, positively awful. Don't watch it. And that's all I have to say.

Rating: 1.5

London (2005, U.S.)

This film had a good concept. A guy and girl with an on-again/off-again dysfunctional relationship are very off-again, but they show up at the same party. Through flashbacks and dialogue, the viewer learns of their past together.

Here's the thing. The execution was terrible. The acting was horrible. The characters were self-interested, shallow wastes of space. The flashbacks were good in theory, but too disjointed in practice. (Of course, that could have been the bad acting.)

That's all I've got. It was just kind of stupid.
