Greetings again, everyone, I'm back to bring you a few more Reviews.
Let's get this out of the way.
The Expendables and Scott Pilgrim: 8/10 and 10/10 respectively.
But you didn't need me to tell you that.
However, I'm here today to talk about what has to be the worst movie I've seen in a while: George Clooney's "The American".
This will be different from my normal style, since I can't be constructive about this. I hate this movie. I mean, I really wanted to like it. As usual, Clooney himself does a stellar performance, and since most of it is set in Italy, he was smart and got mainly Italian actors for the roles. The scenery was nice enough, even more so since I've lived in Italy and have gotten a greater appreciation for it's culture and architechture.
But the problem with this film, is SOLE problem, is that it's boring. I managed to fall asleep for a minute or so, and that's never a good sign. I think part of my problem was that I didn't see much for the Trailers, didn't really read the Synopsis, or anything to clue me in as to what this film was, so I walked in there thinking it'd be kinda cool, and action-esque, kind of like Ocean's Eleven or something. But no, the Plot, what little there was at times, dragged itself onwards slowly. There was some action, but not enough to keep my attention. And there was some random bits of nudity and other naughty things, which at parts didn't seem important at all. I mean, they could've just censored it, and it wouldn't have made a difference.
I really wanted to like this film. I really did. But I'm sorry, Mr. Clooney, you disappointed me heavily.
5/10 "Rent if you Dare"
