You know, it has to be said, sometimes, I’m a film fan.
Hmm … that sounds remarkable ambiguous, doesn’t it … ?
What I mean to say, simply, is that I like watching movies.
Sci-fi and horror, for the most part: although I will make an exception, occasionally, if you’re VERY persuasive about a given film.
At ANY rate … ?
At any rate, I know what I like, and head straight for it when I can.
Occasionally, though, I manage to dig up a clunker or two.
I think the worst film I’ve managed to catch, recently, was Orcs: and even though I gave it a star and a half, it was a film was a certain sense of irony to it.
Or, at least, had its tongue stuck in its cheek.
But then … ?
~~≈≈~~
THEN there’s the film I managed to catch, last night.
Or not, to be perfectly frank.
The film in question was the 2011 film, 51: one I’d rented from iTunes, after I’d seen its trailer and felt it was worth a punt.
I think I can safely say this.
I was wrong.
It WASNT one capable of holding my attention for more than about twenty minutes: and that’s maybe 15 minutes more than it was worth.
I’ll leave 51: with 0 stars.
☆☆☆☆
And tell you one thing: 51 is a waste of money.
