Book Club (I) (2018)
2/10
A once-upon-a-time great cast of truly, undeniably talented actors get together for a a nonsense, flatlined and boring parody of a movie.
15 September 2018
Think Sex and the City, 30 years later - with some elements of The First Wives Club mixed in there for a good measure. The book club is just an excuse to flash the 50 Shades of Grey every other scene - but let's pretend it really was what pushed those 4 accomplished - it cannot be stressed hard enough - women to look for love, sorry, sex. The moment Christian Grey's name gets said, there is only one focus in life - to get laid, against all odds and circumstances. And that would actually be absolutely, fantastically ok nobody should stop wanting to get some because they are older - but the manner the topic is handled is heinous, sad, and desperate, and the ridiculous product placement and green screens only add salt to the wound. Not telling you to avoid, but remember - there are a lot of other things you can do with two hours. Just saying.
