BRUTALLY BAD.......2004-10-12
Too many flashbacks..........2002-10-03
Disappointment.......2002-07-30
I am sorry I did. Not for Ringwald's (or anyone's) performance, however.
The payoff of the plot--the actual "brutal truth"--was horrific, unexpected. . .and upsetting. Such scenes are usually handled with tact, grace, respect for the audience and the audience's responses. This scene in particular did not do so by any stretch of the imagination. Following on the heels of disjointed scene changes and little character development (who are these people? tell me, as the audience, why I should care), the payoff scene was even more offputting.
This movie is not Christina Applegate's caliber of movie.......2001-02-21
Interesting Idea Executed Poorly.......2000-08-21
