movie review - Rat Race

the journal of Michael Werneburg

twenty-seven years and one million words

Vancouver, 2001.10.28

Well, I finally did it. I walked out of a movie. We went for Heidi's birthday, but gave up after half an hour.

If at all possible, I heartily recommend avoiding this film at all costs. It is just plain awful. Dumb, awkward, trite, cliched, dull, embarrassing.

Avoid.

The point isn't revenge. It is justice. Revenge is like a wave that washes up on shore - it always washes back out again. Justice is like the shore - it's still there after the wave comes and goes.
