This is a small complement site to another site called "It Probably Wasn't Important Anyway". Here I'll expand upon my movie listings on the parent site and make some informal, stream of consciousness notes on my thoughts. Think of it as Gonzo movie reviewing.

The cheese...the cheese is overwhelming. Here's another example of an "80's movie". We can define this as a film that would never, ever be made outside of a certain decade. I mean, this lady met and inspired the greatest minds in history, but she ends up falling for Andrew McCarthy? Nothing against the brother, but he isn't Michaelangelo. I think we can all agree to that, no? Bad fashion, bad acting, ridiculous premise. Entertaining movie, if you can bear everything terrible in the movie. That's a lot, by the way.
