You Can't Please Everyone - A River Runs Through It

Cynical-C Blog has a regular feature where they post one star Amazon reviews of classic movies, music and literature. So we looked up everyone's favorite fly fishing movie and sure enough there are a number of people who did not appreciate the film... 5 to be exact.  What follows are 3 of the 5 cut and pasted word for word for your reading pleasure.

- I cant believe that Ive only found one bad review of this film on the whole internet. Have you all gone mad? Apart from the beauty of Brad Pitt and the Montana scenery, this is one of the most disappointing badly made and boring films I have seen since "Independance Day"! Deeply irritating, very bad continuity, (eg scenes where his clothes are all wet and the next minute totally dry) AWFUL mawkish script - particularly the narration - and Im sorry to all of those out there who like this self-indulgent and grossly over-rated film, but Im pretty pissed off Ive just wasted 2 hours of my day. I would have given it no stars if the form field had let me.

- If there was somthing for NO stars, I would rate it that. This is the worst movie I have ever seen. It's beyond boring, there is no climax at all. The movie just drags on about some guy and his family. Hell, if this is such a great hit, maybe my dog can star in the sequel.

- the movie is fine but before i purchased it i read the description and it says that the movie has subtitles in spanish and the true is that IT DOESN'T!
