Title: I would give it -1000 stars if I could!
Review: I have learned my lesson. If Paul Haggis wrote the script than the movie is wortheless ("Crash" also sucks!). Yes, this movie belongs to my list of decadent pseudo-intelectual entertainment. Let's start translating the movie. First it presents us a character that always wins. When the character supposedly loses it's because someone else cheated. This is a shameful manipulation trying to appeal to all the losers that believe that success is easy. But since losers never really get anywhere the final victory is not achieved. This is part of the manipulation because the losers watching the movie have to identify with it.For me art is supposed to inspire people. Where is that inspiration in this movie? Where is it trying to lead us? The objective of the movie is just to give people an aspirin to make them feel better about their own sad lives.The only good thing is that Mr. Haggis will be able to get that house in beverly hills that he always dreamed about.
Is the review positive or negative?
