The Monuments Men(2014). Directed, written, produced and starring George Clooney.

Never seen so many people leave a film/cinema halfway through.

Awful.

Patch Adams was a load of overly sentimental rubbish. To throw in a second.

"Hector and the search for happiness"

Absolute ɓollocks.


I've left the cinema during films many times but I had to sit in on that because of Mrs P having got tickets for a gala event and there was a free buffet afterwards.

Awful film.

How was the free buffet?

Death in Venice.

From memory, it seemed to consist entirely of a restaurant scene with a man staring at a teenage boy. Nothing else seemed to happen at all.

We were very very stoned at the time of watching, mind, and the bong seemed to take forever to be passed on the left hand side.

To be fair there were scenes on the beach as well.

The Sgt Pepper film starring the Bee Gees is the worst. We had planned to see Animal House but were a day early.

Another vote for Avatar which I fell asleep watching as I also did in the 2nd Pirates of the Caribbean film.

I absolutely detested Forrest Gump.

Cats was terrible but had a grotesque fascination.

Went to see Forrest Gump on a first date and when we walked out and she told me that she hated it too, I married her. (not there and then). If I'd been on my own, I wouldn't have made it to the end, because I'd have been off when they did the cheap 'Midnight Cowboy' reference. (We've all seen good films mate. Instead of sly nods about ones you've seen, make one of your own).

Deepest, darkest Sussex
All three Lord of the Rings films

My best friend at school loved them and we ended up going for his birthday every year. Absolutely dire.

I actually spoke to the writer/director and he loved the fact I referred to it as the best shit film I'd ever watched.
It's so bad that you'll end up glued to it and then wonder what you've just watched and why.

Fun fact


There's an odd reference to Midnight Cowboy in Apocalypto.

They watch it every Christmas and I am now cast out of the room whenever it's on, because even my eye rolling ruins their enjoyment of the cobbled together stories of weird stalkers, fat shaming, 'Confessions of' type male fantasies and the horrible treatment of Emma Thompson's character, the only sympathetic person in the whole mess.

She's not the only sympathetic character in it. There's also 'Sarah', who cares for her special needs brother and has a crush on a guy at work. When they finally get it together, her caring duties get in the way and the romance flops. She deserves a happy outcome but doesn't get it. Been touched on before, but the film's treatment of the female characters leaves a lot to be desired, as does the toleration of the Andrew Lincoln character's stalker tendencies (OK, so he's fallen in love with someone he shouldn't have fallen in love with, to quote Pete Shelley, but zooming in on his best friend's wife throughout their wedding?! Creepy as...).

The most gender polarising film I have witnessed (haven't actually watched it myself) was Amelie.
I happened to walk past the Ritzy in Brixton as the audience exited. Almost entirely consisting of cis het couples every woman was beaming with joy and every man looked like he'd been in the trenches.

Another one that's not the worst I've ever sat through, but feels like it is 'Love Actually'. I liked 'Four Weddings...', I quite liked 'The Tall Guy'. 'Notting Hill' seemed like '4 Weddings...' run through the law of diminishing returns. I had little interest after that, but had to sit through it because my wife and kids love it. They watch it every Christmas and I am now cast out of the room whenever it's on, because even my eye rolling ruins their enjoyment of the cobbled together stories of weird stalkers, fat shaming, 'Confessions of' type male fantasies and the horrible treatment of Emma Thompson's character, the only sympathetic person in the whole mess. (Okay, she likes the crap jazz version rather than the original 'Both Sides Now', but that's no reason to do that to her Rickman).

The most annoying thing about it is how shallow everything is. It doesn't feel like a film, but a load of Hallmark cards stapled together.

Is it even fat shaming when the woman everybody spends the whole film going on about being fat clearly isn't?

Probably. But it's just weird. I have no idea how anybody involved thought it was OK.

It's also crap.

I remember queuing with my then girlfriend at the Marina to see Charlie’s Angels.

As we egged closer to the booth I couldn’t hold it in. I said I’m really sorry but I cannot watch this. Please can we see something else.
She still vaguely liked me back then so said “oh okay, what do you want to see”?

I looked at the board and saw one I’d not heard of..

“Chopper”?

Yeah, okay.

I think was about a week before she would even look at me.
