Review of Reservation Road (2007) by Clay M — 15 May 2008

(brushing off the dust from the keyboard, plugging in the mouse, cracking knuckles...).

Well, it's been a while, but I'm back and ready to review some movies. Let's start with this little nugget of a film, Reservation Road. It's a nugget of crap. Hated every minute of it. Resist the temptation, even though there are actors in this movie with fantastic pedigrees. How can I relate to you what watching this movie is like? Think about a kid getting struck by a car and dying, imagine how bad the family of the kid would feel. Think about that for two hours. Aaaaaand we're done. No redeeming values here, no lessons learned (oh, you mean it would destroy the lives of the family AND the man who hit the child? I can't fathom...). Save yourself the torture, go rent Juno.
