Other Crap

ROTTEN TOMATOES: Movies Opening this week

The mainstream releases are apparently complete crap again.

• Dead Silence: not pre-screened for critics. A ventriloquist with an evil dummy.'Nuff said.



• I Love My Wife: 18% positive reviews. General consensus: "WTF? Chris Rock directing and starring in a remake of a French art film?"



• Premonition: 10% positive reviews. General consensus: "Why would Sandra Bullock agree to appear in crap like this?" Scoop's note: "You're surprised that Sandra Bullock is in a bad movie? She has probably been in more bad movies than any woman alive."

That's a record of bad movies you have to envy, unless of course you happen to be Eric Roberts. That's a shame, too, because she seems like a nice person and I always like her on screen, but I almost always hate her movies.
