Getty Got Chucked into my Garbage

Reviewed by J. C. Senior, 2009-11-22

The film began with the camera poring over newspapers to a music track that overpowered the voiceover, such that I could not hear the script. After several minutes, I wonder what the point was.

Later the video was a series of repetitive graphic images, music and a voice over that I could sometimes hear. I turned to my son and pointed out that the graphics did not match the words at all.

This is the worst film I have ever seen, except for a few moments of uploaded stupidity on YouTube. I just wish DVDs were recyclable - I feel guilty for putting it into the garbage, but that's where it belongs.

The only solace I have is in knowing that the $1 it cost me went to a charity in a sale of used items.

Perhaps the other reviewer saw another film, because we could not have watched the same film.
