Author Topic: From Justin to Kelly Michael Schaffer "Where is the Boardwalk Hotel?" Posts: 4143 From: Boston, MA Registered: Apr 2002 posted 06-21-2003 05:10 AM                        Just to re-iterate. This is one of the top five worst movies you will EVER see. There isn't even any sort of humour you would expect from such a piece of crap. You know, you really know a movie is bad when it's seems that (based on the sometimes out of sync dialog or lip syncing) the sound editor wouldn't even go through it more than once.  |  IP: Logged Daryl C.

How do I really feel? I feel that I would be doing the audience a favour by attaching the tail of one to the head of five and leaving the rest in the can.  |  IP: Logged Daryl C. W.

I edited my member data file and decremented my post count by one. This movie sucks more than my ShopVac.  |  IP: Logged Sean McKinnon Phenomenal Film Handler Posts: 1712 From: Peabody Massachusetts Registered: Sep 2000 posted 06-22-2003 05:25 AM                        Daryl, I think that Deserves a 5 point penalty! and to keep it on topic. This cinematic abortion should grace the screens at all U.S. terrorist interogation ceneters. with the torture from this we will certainly learn the whereabouts of Saddam and Bin Laden.  |  IP: Logged Joe Redifer You need a beating today Posts: 12859 From: Denver, Colorado Registered: May 99 posted 06-22-2003 06:01 AM                        Daryl just called me for no reason (as he always does) and he admits he really loves this movie, but is just too embarrassed to admit it. He told me he downloaded the pirated DivX from the internet and has watched it many times. He said he also plans on buying the DVD when it comes out next week. Daryl LOVES Justin vs Kelly or whatever the f*ck this thing is called.  |  IP: Logged Joe Redifer You need a beating today Posts: 12859 From: Denver, Colorado Registered: May 99 posted 06-22-2003 06:03 AM                        Look, I am immediately replying to myself. It's easy. And fun!  |  IP: Logged Kristin Wahlund Film Handler Posts: 92 From: Eagan, MN Registered: Jul 2001 posted 06-23-2003 02:46 AM                     My friend Leah had been dying to see this movie and you should have seen my boss' face when i agreed to preview this movie. He and all the other guys were so relieved. I just started cracking up when they all start to dance with props all the time. During that first number oh man. it was a good thing we were not with paying customers. they would have killed us. i just couldnt stop laughing. the whole time. every time the sing. i still get giddy just thinking about it. WHAT WERE THEY THINKING! not to mention how rediculous it is that its about spring break and it came out in june. that was dumb. it should have come out when it was planned to, it couldnt have been much worse....  |  IP: Logged John Lasher Master Film Handler Posts: 493 From: Newark, DE Registered: Aug 2001 posted 06-30-2003 11:04 PM                        They surrounded Justin & Kelly with mediocrity in order to make them look good, but I felt that it was unnecissary as Justin & Kelly's best scenes are when they're by themselves and not with the crowd of community theater and MTV rejects that fill out the supporting cast. I felt the songs, for the most part were forgettable, but well performed. (I think the lip-syncing issues were more the fault of the actors not doing it right(or someone not teaching them). For most movie musicals ("Chicago", "Little Shop of Horrors" are 2 that leap to mind) the actors actually sing while the cameras are rolling.) I have to say that during the opening seconds of the movie I was thinking to myself "I know her celebrity status has declined, but I didn't know it had declined to that extent. I thought the cinematography suited the film very well and the sound mix was good. I'd see it again. * 1/2 (out of 4) Presentation: Regal People's Plaza 17 Picture: *** (framing issue on trailers, some dirt) Sound: SR-D ****  |  IP: Logged
