Crappy Movie Digest Vol 6: Into the Slipstream of Poor Filmmaking

This will be the sixth time I've gone back and spent some time with bad movies that I never had enough time to spend wasting on actually watching them. I tried to watch each of these, but after so much they just proved not to be worth sitting through until the end credits. Yep: Crappy Movie Digest Vol 6!

Into The Wild: I can fully understand why Sean Penn got snubbed at the Oscars for this movie. The story may be inspirational to some, but I could not look past what felt like a shooting script put together by an amateur with no concept of how to actually tell the story. I could write out a whole page of detail on what I mean, but I'm moving on.

Slipstream: This is a movie written and directed by actor Anthony Hopkins and seemed to promise that even with the cliché plot of: a writer who begins to see his characters in real life, that it might be creatively interesting. The movie is made up of fairly random clips and scenarios run together. I quickly realized that this movie is like one of those paintings you look at and say your kid could do, yet someone out there must think it is art. I think Anthony Hopkins is the only one who thinks this boring, random, nonsensical "movie" is art.

Bachelor Party 2: A sequel to the 1984 comedy, which I am surprised has not been redone ala American pie or National Lampoon direct to DVD style already. Well, now they have. A product marketed on sex and lacking any actual content quality whatsoever.

Outlaw: The plot was supposed to star Sean Bean and a group of people who decided they are tired of crime and going to take the law into their own hands. In the very opening scenarios, however, it is evident that the talent to direct a crappy low quality camera is out of the filmmaker's hands.
