Me? I went to see The Love Guru.
I don't know what I was thinking. I hate Jessica Alba. I like Justin Timberlake, but how many times can you watch him say tabernak before it gets tiring? Mike Myers was embarrassingly bad. Ben Kingsley was worse. There were too many penis jokes - even the 15-year-olds in front of us were sighing in disdain.
The whole film was an ungainly mess - a slapping together of bad jokes without the formality of defining characters and having them be remotely sympathetic. In Wayne's World and in the early Austin Powers, Mike Myers played comic characters, but because you could get to know them a little, they were even funnier.
The Guru Pitka is an out-of-control train that doesn't have the decency to crash.
If it wasn't for an occasional doe-eyed look from Manu Narayan as Rajneesh, I would have tried to hang myself with the dental floss curled at the bottom of Powell's purse.
Should have taken my $13 to the dollar store instead. *Sigh* Could have used that time to write! *shake, shake*
Happy St-Jean, people. I'm going to go have myself a nice, cleansing cry.
PS. It's obvious that the only reason Myers made this movie is that it's the only way he'll ever see the Leafs win a Stanley Cup in his lifetime.

hahaha i really like this. especially the last part about the cup being in toronto! because the only place it should be is montreal. although i did think it was quite funny when timberlake said tabernak
Why do we feel such a need to slag the Leafs? It just feels soooo good.
