Netflix: It's for Dummies, Too

Inspired by Maya's post, I'm about to rag on some Netflix amateur DVD reviewers. Man, do you guys suck! While I'm at it, let me take a swipe at Netflix itself and advertise the fact that they sent me some incredibly low-budget Conan-type flick called CONQUEST in the envelope for BATTLE ROYALE. Which means they totally wasted the 6-8 days of the month it took for them to send me that piece of shit, and for me to return it and receive an actual copy of Battle Royale. And there's nothing they plan to do about it. Fuckers!

So, on to the roasting.

HAROLD AND KUMAR GO TO WHITE CASTLE

The major trend I saw with people who rated this film negatively was that they were offended by 1) the fact that the main characters were "nobodies" and 2) that the film was "racist." One reviewer even speculated that this is a "Blue State Movie." Check it:

Not funny. Racist and just a plain waste of time. White Castle has always been a favorite of mine. It now has a blemish.

I have no problems with dumb comedies, having enjoyed "Eurotrip" and "Dude, where is my car", but this is just not funny, believe me. It is poorly conceived and constructed, the actors are absolutely uncharismatic wankers and there is just NOTHING to watch. I mean, if you do not laugh in a stupid juvenile comedy, than what do you do- follow the plot line? admire the acting? the sets? the sound?get stoned past being conscious?... At least "Stifler" and Ashton Kutcher have some comedic talent- these actors are just upgraded extras.

This movie is not funny, its ridiculous. And why do hollywood movies always and i mean always put in unneeded references to nazis, holocaust and israel. I guess what it really tells us who financed this movie. A word to the jewish filmmakers, enough of the crap already.

UPDATE: Whoa, Nelly! I decided to see where "read my other reviews" would take me. NJ from SC (above) turned out to be an actual neo-Nazi. Check out his/her other reviews here.
