mr. brooks is THE.WORST.MOVIE to be renting right now, even though i kind of liked it, it is truly terrible and awful, but i like garbage so therein lies the appeal. where to begin? ungh. the dialogue is just over-the-top trying to be bad-ass, everything is predictible, demi moore is the same character she is in every movie she’s ever been in, dear demi moore, you can’t act, stop it, stick to robbing cradles, k? dane cook looks wicked fat/bad innit and his acting blows but he gets slashed in the neck so there’s that at least. the daughter “has” what kevin costner “has” (overwhelming addiction to kill, yes) and there’s a scene when she slams scissors into his neck and leading up to it a hipsterish song is playing and he’s doing the walk in slow motion around the house all is content OR IS IT thing so he goes to kiss her goodnight, the stupid song is playing telling us UH OH something’s up and then STABBED IN THE NECK and everything slows down/speeds up, song is going all arty-like, tho it isn’t arty because it does not match up to the theme of the movie, period, so it’s just irritating. they dumb everything down for you, explaining what they’re doing a second after you have already fucking figured it out on your own, there is no mystery.

those’r mah thoughts.
