The Living Force
There are no real good reasons to watch this film, IMO. I was conned into it by my teenager who was home sick with a cold. Unless you have a warped sense of humor (which I usually have) that will be amused by the blatant and depraved manipulations of psychopathic characters (which I usually don't care to see) played by Hugh Grant and Mandy Moore, or if the idea of Dennis Quaid portraying a slightly dumber (maybe that's generous?), more religious, albeit less evil President Bush seems funny, or if you just genuinely need to see some psychopathy in action (even if it is of the Hollywood variety) because you have trouble spotting the tactics then you probably want to skip this movie. I hope it was made as a satire to point out the base and depraved notions depicted in much of American mass culture but I'm not sure. I didn't get to see the end because the dvd was scratched so I'll never know. That is unless one of you trusting souls out there was also duped into watching this flick or if another one of you has absolutely nothing better to do and can tell me your take on this inanity. Sadly, though, I'm afraid it is merely a silly film that manages to meagerly evoke a grotesque metaphor of the perversion of the "American Dream" of Life, Liberty, and the Pursuit of Happiness.
