Review of Mysterious Skin (2005) by Matta. — 26 Jan 2006
Just because the film tackles a taboo subject like molestation and sex with minors doesn't mean that it's good. Ridiculously acted (especially you 3rd rock from the sun kid), terribly written, and directed with about as much subtlety as a sledge hammer to the head, this film easily wins my award for not only most overrated film of the year, but the worst film as well.
Kenneth Turan is a grade-A boner for saying this is the best film of the year, and I will never trust his reviews again because of it.
