Jaws 4 - The Revenge

My all time worse cinematic release ever. Hollywood couldn't kill off ol' Jaws while he had dollars still stuffed in him and so the franchise rumbled on ( or should I say drifted?). In this sordid celluloid hotchpotch a member of the Jaws 'family' is determined to get revenge on the Brody clan, and Micheal Caine for good measure simply for showing up in the same film. This is worth a watch just for the amusement value. Make sure your Television is insured first as it may attempt to kill itself when this rolls across the screen.

Bridget Jones - The Edge Of Reason

If iIever build a time machine then I'll be claiming back these two hours first. Frosty lawns and views of a mystic London skyline from a village on a hill, with a red telephone box icome into shot. We can see the dome of St.Pauls. The film is over, your girlfriend/wife is smiling. You can't get up to leave. Your eyes are fixed on the credits because somewhere inside you've retreated into some sweet, soft childhood memmory where you can be safe. You've gone into a trance in a bid to save yourself from this sickly, dull, product placement filled commercial stunt of a movie with its fake English Accents and red bus filled London that pretends to tell us abpout what it is to be a woman. Is this being made for our american friends with there paperback visions of rainy London Town? Also, how many films can Colin Firth be in playing the same partailly repressed yet part emotionally vulnerable ,softly spoken gentleman. I imagine the answer is **** loads of times.

The Wedding Date

If In Her Shoes is a good example of how good romcoms can be then this is an example of how nauseatingly terrible they often are. This one made me want to pull my back wisdom teeth out. I'm being specific as desperate measures were called for. Debra Messinger destroyed her shot at Hollywood with this miserable effort.

Moulin Rouge

I can't bear musicals. The fact that Obi-Wan-Kenobi was in this, pimping himself out, singing his heart out with dollar signs Kidman, just broke my heart. The only thing worse would be if Barnum became a big screen musical with Harrison Ford in the starring roll. A host of women have tried to get me to watch this insisting that I'll grow to love it. read my lips honey, I DON'T LIKE MUSICALS and I don't like bad films even more.

  Cross LA BOHEME with CABARET, throw in a little bit of RENT, and you might almost begin to describe Baz Luhrmann's visually opulent, fast-paced, funny, heartrending MOULIN ROUGE.

Seven Swords

I'm a big fan of chinese sword and sorcery movies. House of Flying Daggers is just beautiful. This however, is a road accident of a film. It has been so badly edited that huge chunks of the film have been cut out in an attempt to cut its extensive original length. This however, makes it unwatchable. You do not know what is going on at all. it is impossible to invest anything in the charachters or follow the feel of the film in a coherent, absorbed way. What a mess.

Star Trek 7 : Generations

Captain Kirk dies on a collapsing metal bridge? Is that it. After all those years? The Social Workers in Space franchise attempts to bridge itself into Next Gen territory, linking the two series in an attempt to pass over the paramount star trek franchise baton. What a fumble and a faux pas this film turned out to be. More to the point what is whoopi Goldberg doing in Star Trek , serving behind the enterprise bar? Dreadful.

Batman Forever

I often wonder if Joel Schumacher makes a pigs ear of his family home movies as well. Has the wife made a lovely film of the little one finding his feet for the first time, only for Daddy to ruin it in his attic editing booth. This guy must appear regularily in Tim Burton's nightmares. How many bad films can one moronic director make? If someone needs a book book on how to destroy a perfectly good franchise with intriguing dark charachters with a mass audience appeal then Joel should write it. Yes he made billions of dollars but then so did the American Government and no likes them do they?
