I thought we had a thread about bad movies, that was "specifically" about bad movies, but I can't seem to find it anywhere, so I figure I will start one, instead of clogging up another thread with Off Topic.
Last night, I watched Mission To Mars. It had a pretty good cast, Tim Robbins, Don Cheadle, Gary Sinise, and a few "hey I know that guy/girl" type actors in it.
It was Sci-Fi, all amount a manned trip to mars. The Science in the show seemed pretty good, but the acting... and the score... Well.. It was AWFUL!
It was as if the composer wasn't sure if he was scoring something epic with a full symphony, or something synthetic with a vintage synthesizer.
And the actors... At times it was like they were trying to capture that 50's / 60's dramatic "hold" in their lines, but it came off forced, and terrible, and like they were waiting for someone to feed them the line.
Did I miss why people think this movie is good? I mean, don't get me wrong, their ideas about the gravity rotations in the ships / stations, and other "sciencey" things were fantastic, but the acting, and the music just ruined it.
