I'm back from this. It was better than the last one by virtue of not being a lazy regurgitation, but that's not saying much. It's definitely a Razzie contender. Zach Galifianakis and Ken Jeong were especially bad.

Funny story: I have a friend who has connections with film distributors who tells me which movies will get theatrical release here and which ones won't. When he told me that the Best Foreign Film Oscar winner A SEPARATION was being released direct-to-DVD here, I rented it, and I loved it! Now, it appears in the movie listings in the newspaper. My friend told me that it's being shown in "art-house" cinemas. Doesn't matter, because it's still eligible for my Vits Awards.

Meanwhile, because of the success of movies like GRINDHOUSE, a Chilean movie called BRING ME THE HEAD OF THE MACHINE GUN WOMAN is trying to bring a new sub-genre: LatinXploitation (I didn't come up with that name).

Those 2 movies are among the new releases here, along with SAFE HAVEN. Oh, and also FAST & FURIOUS 6. What should I do?

Then wouldn't every bad movie be considered a rip-off? 

RESPONSE from Head RAZZberry: NO -- Please re-read my post above. I was speaking specifically about this film -- and the fact that almost everyone loathed the 2nd entry in this franchise. Yet here they are, back again, looking to swipe yet another ticket's worth of bucks from our pockets. 

Let me put it this way: If these film-makers were party guests, we'd have thrown them out for how they behaved last time when they showed up and barfed on everyone -- and we'd never willingly let them in the front door again...

RESPONSE from Head RAZZberry: I was suggesting that the very existence of this film is a "rip-off," as in: The idea of doing a third HANGOVER movie, when the second one sucked and a third one would exist only to take movie-goers' money, is inherently a "rip-off." 

As if further evidence were needed, here's the LINK to read today's L.A. Times review of HANGOVER III, which declares "the comedy has left the building," and which (in the print edition) has a sub-headline that refers to the film as "dismal"...

Wait a minute, HeadRazz. The trailers for the movie make it clear it's more of a thriller/heist type of thing, AND there is NO actual Hangover this time. Therefore, I'd argue we cannot call this a rip-off of the first movie again (Unless you think it is ripping-off something else. If that's the case, please explain)...

I am not talking about Tree of Life being "booed," I am talking about the fact that the first 30 something reviews were almost exclusively negative. Even though it wasn't well-liked at Cannes, Tree of Life still received mostly positive reviews from the English-speaking critics at the festival (I heard that the French hated it).]]> Wed, 22 May 2013 23:41:11 +0000 http://www.razzies.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=6066&PID=54598#54598 HANGOVER III : Forum Members' Discussion of HANGOVER: 3...AUDS: 1 http://www.razzies.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=6173&PID=54597#54597 Author: moviecritic1994

Here's the LINK for the Member-Started Forum on Parker --  Actually, I thought it was a remake/rip-off of Payback and Point Blank.
