I Did a Horrible Thing
Posted: Wed Feb 17, 2016 8:30 pm
Hi Everyone,
I have an admission to make. An admission I'm just not proud of.
In the stress of my day to day, I've been making a point to use my home theater system to the max. I've got a 10' projection screen, Panasonic 1080P 3D Projector, surround sound system, PS4, PC HDMI hook-up - it's my space. Anyways, once my son is asleep, it's my time. We get The Movie Network channels, so I've been going through the library and trying to take in a film every few days. It's really like having a personal movie theater and it's lots of fun.
Anyways, the library has quickly exhausted (of movies that I'm interested in, anyway). So last night...I did a horrible thing.
You know how you hear a movie isn't so good, but when you actually see it, it's only bad if you paid to see it, but it's otherwise OK for what it is?
Last night...I saw Pixels - the Adam Sandler movie. It was terrible. So terrible that even with the knowledge of having seen it for free...I regret seeing it. I wish I could un-see it. I don't even want to review it because my review would be more entertaining than any redeeming value the film could hope to (but doesn't) deliver.
I think it is the absolutely worst movie I have seen in recent memory, and is probably worse than other movies I have seen in distant memory, but my mind has blocked them out somehow. Or, maybe this movie was so unbelievably awful, it is beyond my mind's ability to block this film out of consciousness.
Pixels. Don't share in my shame. Don't watch this movie. Don't let someone invite you to their house to watch this movie. If you can get the reference, it really was Adam Sandler's answer to Vogon poetry.
Regards,
Neil
