I saw the documentary on that case a few years ago, and so figured I didn't need to see the adapted version. Glad to hear that was a good decision—I'd prefer to avoid anything that would diminish my affection for Seth.

Buffista Movies 3: Panned and Scanned
A place to talk about movies--Old and new, good and bad, high art and high cheese. It's the place to place your kittens on the award winners, gossip about upcoming fims and discuss DVD releases and extras. Spoiler policy: White font all plot-related discussion until a movie's been in wide release two weeks, and keep the major HSQ in white font until two weeks after the video/DVD release.

Shit's all sorts of different now.
What can I watch to get it back?
I saw the documentary and read the articles and that's why I wanted to see it. I have not read the book by James St James.
But I have to blame this on acting choices and/or direction. It was a cariacature of these people, not a realistic portrayal, which you NEED TO HAVE IF YOU SAY BASED ON A TRUE STORY in the beginning.

Ann, that's a ferret.
Aimee, if you haven't seen Rat Race, it's an enjoyable film and Seth contributes his share of the goodness. (Double the "enjoyable" part if It's a Mad Mad Mad Mad World is one of your favorites.)

Were there any reviews titled "It's a Rat, Rat, Rat, Rat World"?
Cause there should have been.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I didn't like Rat Race. Seth and Breckin were amazing, but at least two race threads needed to be dropped, and the one with Cuba Gooding Jr on its head from a great height.

I'll half agree. Get rid of the referee-error part, keep the visual image of the Lucy impersonators.

But the Seth parts, especially the business with the cows? Oh, god, I laughed so hard I hurt all the next day.
I can't even say Rat Race was a great movie, but parts of it were hysterically funny.

Seth as Chris in "Family Guy" is the funniest thing EVAH.

A movie being this bad shouldn't affect me so. I feel like I need a mental health day to recover.

Oh, Seth is also fun in The Italian Job remake, which is a damn fun movie in and of itself.
