No Country for Old Men. Fair movie but not worthy of the hype nor any Oscars. That Javier Bardem was a one hit lousy wonder.
What Movie that won rave reviews and an academy award left you wondering why it received any of these praises?
Almost every movie ever nominated.
One of the biggest ones that I can remember is "Moon Struck".
Before we had children it was a date night outing that me and my wife had seen . . . It was a one of those movies you tell your friends to wait and rent on VHS (yes I'm that old). When the darn movie won academy awards my wife and I looked at each other . . . Had we been paying attention? So, they re-released the movie back into theaters (as the often do for Academy award movies) and we said "Let's give it another go . . . Open minded." . . .
NOPE, still a rental at best.
All the Batman movies. Yuck.
In the late 1990s to early 2000s Hollywood kept trying to artsy crap. Traffic and Eyes Wide Shut came out then. With both of them, I left the theater thinking what a waste of a good evening out. That was about the time I stopped watching movies.
