Review of The Counselor

This movie was a huge disappointment. To come from such a great director is lunacy! How could the great Ridley Scott be involved with this boring useless movie. He even directed it sadly. The cast is amazing which is also sad because it really hurts their images. To see Michael Fassbender, Penelope Cruz, Cameron Diaz, Javier Bardem, and Brad Pitt tells us that they really thought Ridley Scott had something here. Don't let the big names fool you. This movie makes no sense, it's boring, it's weird, and just really has no coherent plot.

What was with Cameron Diaz having "sex" with a car anyways? That was just weird and awkward. Although I do say she is quite flexible, but that could have been a double. Also how can you play a sexy sexual character without even showing some skin? Even Brad Pitt's character just seems totally useless and out of place. Nothing in this damn plot is coherent or anything! A lot of nothing happens through most of the movie. John Leguizamo shows up randomly and then just disappears like useless fodder. Come on Ridley Scott what are you doing you are better than this! This film is not interesting nor compelling. This movie really made me upset and as I am writing this review I am getting angrier by the second. Do not give this movie a chance as you will only think that Ridley Scott has already hit his peak and will end up another M. Night. Just an example as I still have faith in the director so let's just hope he doesn't really end up that way. Skip this one guys it ain't worth it I promise.
