2008 MOST DISAPPOINTING MOVIES

Now don't get me wrong these are not the worst movies of the year just movies i really looked forward to and the result was meh. not totally horrible but far from what i expected. I didn't hate any of these and would still give them a repectable grade.

Pineapple Express
How did the writers of superbad (last years #1 movie on my list) come upwith this film i liked the original ending showed on the dvd. I just like to think since this was not a original idea by them it is not totally there fault


The Wackness
It would be too easy to say it lived up to its title. while it had moments of real interest and heart ben kingsley's overcting stepped all over it.


American Teen
Not really worth all the hype it was o.k. but not great or anything i hadn't seen before in numerous other documentries on the same subjects.


Man On Wire
Critics and audiences loved it. i found it a chore to sit through and i really never got into it in fact i fell asleep on it twice.


Paranoid Park
I like gus van sant films not the biggest fan of his experimental films but this film just felt like it had no purpose. it may hae meant something to him when he was filming it but sitting in the audience i felt left out and cold.


Smart People
I thought this was finally going to be a comedy where smart characters could have normal non tortured lives but most of it was look at the misery of intellectuals while if you don't think you lead pretty good life. prejudice against the smart.


ChokeRead the book you'll thank me later. it's much better


Cloverfield
An american godzilla movie with a bad love story thrown in that makes no sense and unbelievable characters who are annoying and you can't wait to die


Burn After Reading
Another Much Ado About nothing movie, that has quirky characters and alot of major confusion. with stupid characters with way too much confidence and buffonish blowhard authority figures


Redbelt
I get the honor code and the respect but it doesn't make a interesting movie and you can see the double crosses coming. the main character can be pure but not stupid


Zack & Miri Make A Porno
Jokes just seemed to lay there and it seemed crude just to be crude not for story purposes


Be Kind Rewind
A nice experiment needed to be a little more coherent


Blindness
Too much rhetoric, too much sex. too many martyr's


Revolutionary RoadMaybe it's just i misunderstood this film but i felt this was more of a woman's film because as a man i felt no sympathy for kate winslet's character and i usually love her. it'slike a extended episode of mad men without the advertsing.
