 Lucky Seven $14.94 This is a DVD Movie that we enjoyed a lot and we ordered this one for a "stocking stuffer" gift for our daughter. It came promptly, well packaged and was as described. Gene  Made of Honor $19.94 Made of Honor is your typical bland, predictable, thoroughly contrived romantic comedy. The only reason I'm not giving it one star is that the production values were excellent, the shots of Scotland were gorgeous, and, believe it or not, there are even worse romantic comedies out there. (Tiptoes immediately comes to mind.) The basic problem with this film was not that it was predictable and formulaic (all romantic comedies are predictable and formulaic), but that every single person involved with this film was bored to tears. The actors were bored, the writers were bored, the producers were bored, the editors were bored, the grips were bored ... even the gofers were bored. And it showed. The jokes were lame, the chemistry non-existent, the lines well... "don't marry him", "I've always loved you", "these are glow-in-the-dark thunder beads." Need I say more? If you are laid up with the flu and just need to kill a couple of hours, Made of Honor will probably do the trick. The good part is that you won't remember a thing afterwards. |
