Review of Gigli

Gigli (2003)
9/10
Not Really That Bad
3 January 2004
Yeah, everyone jumped on the bandwagon--hate the two lovers and hate the film, and it snowballed into a nationwide hate fest. Ridiculous how bad the reviews are for this film. It's been criticized for the plot...hell, it's a goofy comedy, so why is everyone tearing the silly plot to pieces, when most other comedies have stupid plots. It's been faulted for the screenplay, but it's not that terrible...there are some clever lines here, certainly enough to warrant the movie's existence. And, of course, everyone hates the way Ben and Lo act, yet their acting comes off fine--they goof off one another and have fun with the confrontations.

For some reason this film has been put under the microscope and shot to hell. But crazy me, I actually enjoyed the film. Oh well.
