Title: Dumb, Dumber and Dumbest
Product review: Why was this movie made??? It was just plain dumb and a complete waste of my time. I thought it would be good because of the actors (Nolte, Coburn and Spacek). While the acting was good, the plot was horrible. Not really a murder mystery at all, but about a dysfunctional family (who doesn't have one??) and a man spiraling out of control, blaming it all on his upbringing. I do agree that parents can sometimes inflict horrific pain on children, emotionally and physically. I grew up with an alcoholic father and an angry, out-of-control, physically and emotionally abusive mother, much like the father in this movie. I did not, however, end up a failure in life and blame my parents, or kill them. If I could have given this a negative rating, I would have. I don't understand all the high ratings. It was also incredibly slow. If I wasn't watching this at home, where I was able to internet surf and work on my budget, I probably would have fallen asleep.
