Anger Management: 35 Out Of 100 Stars

Jesus what an unbelievably shitty movie. The premise is about as absurd as could be, rendering alot of the jokes worthless. Of course they're unfunny on their own as well, but hey. To say that the script is ridiculous doesn't give the word ridiculous enough credit. Atrocious, hackneyed, cockeyed, shitty, cumfart writing, are all apt descriptions of the script. I laughed out loud a number of times I'll admit, and I guess i've given decent ratings to other bad movies that have succeeded in at least making me laugh, but I can't in good consciousness give this movie a decent rating.

Most of the laughs come from auxiliary characters giving their ridiculous lines with verve. John Reily and Woody Harrelson for instance brought the lulz, as does John Turturo. But the leads are just so blazingly dumb they don't belong anywhere near a big boys movie.

The twist at the end makes me think that about a week before production wrapped they realized how pathetic the final product looked and tried to salvage it, but the twist is just as preposterous as the rest of the film.

Anger Management will make you want to break things, like your dvd player and tv. Best to avoid.
