Proving the now old hollywood adage that god-awful special effects and big
stars taking a gigantic crap all over a big screen can somehow become
marketable with enough promotional spots, "the league" opened today. To say
this movie is bad is an insult to bad movies. We've all been to see real
steamers in the past, movies that suck so hard that light bends around them,
but this one is extra steamy...with a side order of suck...to go. Rather than
go into some long diatribe about the plethura of missed opportunities in
character development, scripted dialog, acting, or cgi, I'll focus on all the
good things that are in "the league".

The credits were fantastic.

And La Femme Nakita is totally hot.

I would be remiss though if I didnt give some insight into this complete and
utter waste of celuloid's premise.

Take every single literary character in every book you were forced to read,
yet still didnt, in grammer school, then force them to work together to fight
a villain so stupid that he actually assembled them to fight him.

On the plus side this movie gives me renewed hope for my "wicket the
ewok/mini-me/tattoo from fantasy island kung -vs- bob dole/bob dylan" movie
I've been wanting to write for years now. Afterall, if some movie producer was
so absolutely flatlined as to think that putting literary characters almost as
old as sean connery, together in a movie at a time when the average moviegoing
male age 18-24 knows more about britney spears than tom sawyer, (not the rush
song) then my midgets -vs- ancients movie is getting a damn oscar.

If you pay money to see this movie, then I've got some movie scripts you may
want to buy.

I would give this movie -4 out of 10 stars.

La Femme Nikita is still hot though.
