Weekend Movie Guide: Extraordinary Crap!
Having seen -- oh, I don't know -- 20,000 commercials for Extraordinary Measures over the last few weeks, I still think I'm looking at a promo for a TV movie. The real question is will "I already work around the clock!" replace "Where's my family" in the Harrison Ford repertoire? Geez, Legion looks awful. Does everyone else just cackle when that old bird crawls up the wall? Can anything be done to stop Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson? His latest atrocity is The Tooth Fairy. By all rights, Creation should have been a good movie. Great story, solid cast, super production design. Reviews, though, have been dreadful. Shame. To Save a Life looks way too fucking wholesome. People who loved Dumb Fucking Chipmunk Movie will probably love it. Pass.
