A Simple Plan (1998)
Too many guns, too many morons, too long
I have read many comments about this movie and feel compelled to add my own. I think many of the people posting did not carefully watch this movie because it was extremely boring. We've seen this all before (and better-anyone remember Shallow Grave?) and perhaps the only reason people found it so symbolic is that it was intrinsically American. The other fault I found with the movie was its complete predictability. What happens when stupid people with guns get very very angry? Every "tense" scene was telegraphed ten minutes before it happened.
Too many guns, too many morons, too long. The hero was adequate, the fool adequate, the evil manipulative force was adequate. The whole movie was adequate: 4 out of 10.
Showgirls (1995)
Not even good if you're looking for that sort of thing.
If you like porn, don't watch it. If you like musicals with dance, don't watch it. If you like drama, don't watch it. In fact, I can't think of any reason to watch it.
