Bedtime Stories

With a script written by half-retarded monkeys and an audience that is increasingly satisfied with mediocrity: how can Bedtime Stories not be the biggest hit of the holiday movie season? Sandler is a moronic hotel handyman with daddy issues. His sister is going out of town because the school she works at is being destroyed. Sandler must take care of her kids and tell them bedtime stories. These stories end up happening in real life and Sandler games the kids to get his way in the real world. Sandler ends up saving the school and getting the job. One major problem with this film is that the characters are so dumb that you wonder how they can feed themselves. The problem isn't with Americans not wanting to see smart characters on the screen: it is with the work ethic of the writers. The writers of this movie detach motivation and the logic of their main characters. Motivation is the driving force behind a character and logic is what the characters use to navigate through the road blocks you set up to get in the way of achieving their goal. This is writing 101 fellas--learn it before you write. When there is no connection with logic or reason to the main characters, the plot falls apart and goes to the dogs. I will watch your dumb movie again to make sure it is not intentional but online. This film deserves none of my money. The filmmakers would like to beat you over the head with their moral of "do the right thing." Or whatever they think it is. But at the end of the day the moral is: "Do anything to get to the top, including tricking kids" and "Hotels want to tear down your school." Those damned evil hotels. Why are they always building a hotel, mall, or apartments and tearing down schools? Overall, the film suffers from lazy filmmakers cashing their checks and not worrying about anything else. I hope people will start to wake up and treat movies like they do restaurants. If you see a movie that is god awful, do not see another one made by the same person. It is like going to the same restaurant when the food always gives you the runs. Don't do it! Be smart consumers!
