Complaint of the day

I just watched the movie Appaloosa. It has Ed Harris, Viggo Mortensen and Renee Zellwegger(sp?) in it. It was one of the most boring movies I have ever seen. Tim said he wanted to check it out and I like the guy that wrote the book it was based on and it got decent reviews so I thought, why not? Bad call. The older Renee Zellwegger gets the more and more she looks like a deranged chipmunk. By the end of the movie I was hissing and throwing my arm up in front of me like Dracula being exposed to sunlight every time she came on. I thought I could handle Viggo Mortensen but I was wrong. Have you ever noticed how beady his eyes are? Just like a little accountant. The only reason he looked good in the LOTR was because his hair and beard helped hide them (that, and who wouldn't look more manly and attractive next to the half girl Orlando Bloom?). The last straw was Jeremy Irons. I forgot he was in it. He is so stringy and creepy. Lest you think I am judging him harshly, let me direct you to a little movie called Damages. Ugh. Actually, I lied. The LAST straw was the lame story and meandering plotting and the stupid dialogue. The only reason I am not as irritated as I could be is that I at least got all of Tim's stupid 100% cotton work shirts ironed for the week while we were trapped by this drivel for 2 hours. And no- I couldn't just turn it off. Tim wouldn't let me. I asked.
