Gett (2014)
Comedy? or Ignorance
Is this movie supposed to be a comedy? An entire community of mentally challenged individuals seemingly incapable of understanding what it means to testify on someone's behalf? Each witness for the wife made the most ridiculous and laugh out loud statements, and each one eventually or in whole discrediting the wife. The rabbis (Learned men indeed) made no sense, and blatant lying was completely acceptable for them. I think the movie could have made it's point while captivating the audience if it didn't resort to turning each character into a caricature. Not one witness seemed to understand the impact their statements had against the person they were there to support. It just made me feel sorry that this entire society is built on ignorance. The lawyers, the wife, the husband, the witnesses, the rabbis - IGNORANT.
Big Brother (2000)
Einsteinian
I watched this show for ten minutes and lost 20 points off my IQ. While I don't even think the people who like this show (who must be among the world's stupidest) could possible see this as "reality," the truth is that the "actors" appearing here are all arrogant, narcissistic, self-centered, unintelligible morons. Celebrity wannabes (who never will be) without a shred of self respect willing to humiliate and denigrate themselves all because they think they will be he next Kardashian (and what a lofty goal that is). The host Julie Chen (who also happens to be married to the Pres. and CEO of CBS - and the only reason this nitwit is still on the air) does unintentionally bring comic relief by actually thinking this show is relevant in any way. Does she even know that this gig has made her the butt of a lot of jokes? Maybe her next husband should be the Pres. and CEO of HBO so at least she can be the worst part of a more prestigious show. Exhibit some self respect and stop patronizing these gutter level shows.
Peter Pan Live! (2014)
Peter Pan Dead!
Is there some reason why Peter Pan cannot be played by a boy? Here Peter is played by a woman who unfortunately looked and sounded like a woman not even really trying to sound and act like a boy. Why did it have to be live? It would have been much better had they cleaned up the production woes, bad acting, and special effects??? And I believe it was only live in EST anyway (Can you imagine watching this train wreck as a taped production?). Live was a gimmick that ruined this production. I watched the whole thing, but just really felt sorry for the actors and crew by the end. Changing the story doesn't make it an event if that story is boring and unimaginative.
