Movies - Ain't like they use to be - 'Step Brothers'

[Tonks]

I saw a movie today that was just horrible. They should give us our 
money back. I did not see the R rating on it. But still R is not all 
that bad and some are very funny. But not this one. Not only was it 
poorly written, not at all funny, but I don't know how they got away 
with showing what I don't think they can show even in an X rated 
movie. (Admittedly it has been many, many years since I have seen an 
X rated movie, so maybe things have changed.)

This movie was probably written by a 13 year old boy for other 13 
year old boys. It was beyond vulgar!! It was not at all funny. 
Violence. Sex. And a vocabulary where ever other word is F... I 
wanted to see a comedy. I don't know what this was, but is was not a 
comedy, unless you are a pre-teen boy watching it in the locker-
room. I don't know how they got away with such a thing in a movie 
for a regular audience. (And I wonder if that was really the 
actor's 'body part' (or should I say pair of parts) or a good 
imitation.) 

I felt sorry for the actors. They must have all been desperate for 
work to take this film. What has happened to Hollywood? Where have 
all the good writers gone?? Aren't they paying them more now? For 
what!!??? 

So don't waste your money on this one. 

I think I will go see Kung-Fu Panda tomorrow. I hope that one isn't 
as disappointing as Wall-e was. That is my other peeve... I don't 
want movies to give me a message about global warming, etc. I want 
to be entertained!! Save the messages for TV.
