Eyes Wide Shut. Aiiiii! Pluck them out!!!!!!

[foxmonkey]

Watched the last half of Eyes Wide Shut this morning. Speaking of eyes wide shut, I wish mine had been when I saw this posted in the guide. That way I'd have passed it by. Aiiiii!

Is it me, or did that screenplay suck a million smegma-fied monkey balls??? I swear, half the dialogue was made up of Tom Cruise's character repeating what someone had already said.


Actress: "I have to go downtown tomorrow."

Dr. Bill (stares at Actress in an extremely wooden way): "You have to go downtown tomorrow?"

Actress: "Yes, I need to get tomatoes. Do you want to go?"

Dr. Bill: "Do I want to go?"


Aiiiii! Kill me now! Better yet, kill *him*!

And also, the man has two expressions. He's not on my list of favorite actors, but I really liked Minority Report and. Hmmm. Something else he was in. But OY, with the agony of wooden acting in this one! Director's fault, maybe? Yikes.

That's the only movie that I've ever wanted to walk out of in my entire life. Unfortunately my friend drove, and she wanted to see the whole thing. I think she was waiting for a plot to develop.

Yes! That's what kept me watching, that trainwreck factor, just waiting for it to get better, thinking it *surely* couldn't be as bad as it was playing out.
