July 20th, 2009 THE INTERNATIONAL
Hey Hollywood, THANK YOU SOOOOOOOOOOOOOO much for releasing another crappy movie last weekend. Something anyone who was cool in school wouldn't go see. I know that Harry Potter is huge and all the geeks have something to hold their geeky hats on. But some of us were invited to parties in High School and didn't get into this franchise. So instead we are forced to see much more lame and terrible movies over the weekend. I don't know why I thought it would be a good idea to see the Clive Owen movie "The International" but I did watch it. And let me tell you, if you thought Clive Owen sucked before you haven't seen anything yet!!!!!!!!! In this "action" movie he works for Interpol, you know the CIA of the world and he is trying to figure out all this corporate espionage and assassinations of leaders of countries based on bank figures. Now, I will say that Clive Owen is at least young enough to believe that he could be someone to recon with. Unlike Liam Nissian in the movie Taken. But really just because he has an accent and has five o'clock shadow all the time doesn't mean he's a badass. Hello, Don Johnson tried that in the 80's already and he even had a pet alligator in Miami Vice. But this movie is sooooooo over EVERYONE'S head that sees it. Unless of course you run an international bank and want to kill the leader of Turkey. I don't run a bank and neither do all other people that see movies. People that run banks don't have time to see movies, they are too busy plotting ways to make more money and kill leaders of countries that just don't matter. I'm glad that I saw this movie on cable because it wouldn't have been worth the cost of gas to drive to the theatre!!!!!!!! If you can't tell, this movie SUCKED and I HATED IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!
