You know how there are movies which you can actually feel removing points from your I.Q. as you watch them? Which brings us to Olympus Has Fallen, a ripe piece of tripe that rolled out onto an unsuspecting mrpeenee this evening because once it started I was too lazy to change the channel to something better, something like Are You Being Served?
I had initially thought anything with Gerard Butler in it had to have something going for it.
I was wrong. Plus he plays the whole thing wearing a long sleeve shirt which makes me suspect there was Spanx involved under it all. And Angela Bassett, for god's sake, who certainly deserves better. As do I.
I'm thinking Angela may have done it for the money because she is much better than that.
ReplyDeleteSeeing her made me think how poorly used she's been by Hollywood all this time.
DeleteI can sympathise with you there. I watched a Jodie Foster film the other night and it was like watching paint dry, it wasn't a patch on Candleshoe.
ReplyDeleteYou know, considering how little Jodie Foster moves her mouth when she talks, it's possible she believes she's a ventriloquist.
Deletedarling, it's time for a medic alert fob.
ReplyDeleteWill they come change the channel for me?
DeleteBut... But... It's got Aaron Eckhart in it! Just turn the sound down and bask in his handsomeness.
ReplyDeleteI know, such bone structure! You could grate peccorino with those cheeckbones.
DeleteGet one of these.
ReplyDeleteInitially, I was afraid that was a sex toy
DeleteI'm just waiting for a big screen adaptation of "Are You Being Served"...perhaps with Gerard...and his Spanx... as the randy Mr. Lucas.
ReplyDeleteIf they don't hurry up, he'll be able to play Mrs. Slocombe pretty soon.
