The Brendan Fraser Self Torture Kit



Some thoughts regarding Bredan Fraser's new family comedy:-

1/ Oh God. Oh God. Please God why? Please make it stop.

2/ Has Brendan Fraser ever made a 'great' film? Having not seen Bill Condon's acclaimed drama, Gods & Monsters, I cannot comment. But the Oscar winning Crash is highly over-rated and his breakout success, although deserved, is based on the first two Mummy films (and only the second of those can be classed as good).

3/ All talking live-action animal films are dire and, with the exception of the chipmunk franchise, they're box office disasters too. G-Force, Marmaduke and Cats & Dogs 2 have all been expensive flops over the last 12 months. Hollywood, after Yogi Bear this winter, PLEASE STOP!

4/ If Inception is what represents everything great about the medium of cinema, Furry Vengeance is it's exact opposite. On a technical level, the film is flawed in every conceivable way. Why was a director who could not handle comedy chosen to direct something containing humour?

5/ A kids film this might be, but please don't let your children see this. When you reach old age, they will remind you of the pain that you inflicted on them, by making them endure this massive skunk dropping.

Personally I'd rather punch myself in the balls than watch this. I'm sure it would be funnier and a lot less less painful.
