The Shipping News (2001)
I just love the scenery, ooh!

I just love the scenery, ooh!

Everything about this movie is so, so, so on point that I can only shower it with love.

A guy can’t get off in 40 days or he will lose a bet. Oh, the horror.

Which is worse – the heroine or the hero’s mother? Maybe it’s better to just read something else.

The author churns out a tale so boring that one has to prop open the eyelids with toothpicks.

Watch for the meager male flesh on display, try not to hemorrhage from everything else.

This one is actually pretty good, but is eventually killed by its blatant double standards.

Where’s the passion again?

This is totally a winner for being funny and too-real.

The author’s inability to see how dumb her heroine and the plot are sinks this story.
