Review of A Thousand Words (2012) by Michael H — 09 Jul 2012
More like A Painfully Bad Moutful Of Crap. Eddie Murphey's career looked like it was ressurected with Tower Heist. But now he might quit after this ungodly bad movie which is another contender for worst film of 2012. Its hard to believe I actually anticapated this movie for over four years. But I mean the premise! A guy has a thousand words before he has to die? I thought that would be so cool! But this movie, instead of what I first thought four years before would be a court drama with Eddie Murphey, is a comedy melodrama about a man who is bad. So bad in fact that a guru plants a tree in his backyard for changing his book to five pages long. He has a thousand words left before he dies which will effect his relationships with lots of people. But this movie is so bad that the choices of words he makes are awful. The 2nd and 3rd act is so dramatic that your wondering if this is a tyler perry stage play. I give respect for some of the last act but it feels like it has been ripped from a comepletely different movie then the one we are watching. The ending is bullshit because they give up on the plot and start a entirely new plot like its the beginning of a new film. I find it hard to believe people like this horrid movie when it has a 0% on this website. Just horrid.
