Dame Judi STENCH

Let this review serve as a Lady Friend PSA.... If I can save just one Lady Friend from seeing this movie, it will be a win!

Let's dive right in shall we?

  • This movie is TERRIBLE
  • Sheila and I walked out the theater wondering what Judi and Steven Coogan were thinking.
  • It is like a simpleminded person wrote the script.
  • They made Dame Judi into an overly simpleminded rube... She is so impressed with Chocolates on the pillow and bathrobes at the hotel.  I never want to hear Judi talking about Nachos ever again. 
  • Steven Coogan's character is supposed to be the cynical sophisticated gentleman to Judi's rube old lady... but he comes of just as goofy as she does.
  • I really didn't need another reason to hate the Catholic church, but this movie did indeed give me another reason.
I could literally go on and one but what is the point... you could have stopped after the very first bullet point above.  But now I am going to get into the people we saw the movie with.  Sheila and I are no spring chickens... but we were the youngest people in the theater by 20 years.  The crowd was my least favorite movie going crowd... I have dubbed them the "Audible Reactors".  Lots of gasps and "oh no's" at key moments.  Plus they all laughed like hyenas at the terrible jokes in this movie.

Save yourselves Lady Friends.  Sheila and I took this bullet for you.

  1. WOW.... powerful PSA. And since, to this day, I have not had one slice of PI... I will follow suit here. A sad day for the Dame.

  2. Thank you, oh thank you Lady Friends for saving me from driving in a snow shite-show to see this film. I now owe you 2 (August being the 1st). Yikes.
