Theodore Rex (1995)

Worst movie ever?

This flic is high in the running for worst movie ever. If you are a fan of the cinematic disaster this film is every bit the contemporary of Battle Field Earth, Leonard Part 6, etc. You really feel sorry for Whoopie Goldberg (whom desperately did not want to make this movie -- she was forced to in a lawsuit).

Also makes a great gag gift :) January 5, 2009

Poor Whoopie!!!!!!

This is an example of the "Even great people can screw up syndrome". It can happen to anyone. Hey, everyone has a bad day sometime or another. In this case it just happened to be a hmmmm---- this is difficult trying to find some words that can be put into print that can describe this atrocity to quality. Let's just say it's a really bad movie. I feel sorry for Whoopie. Imaginge walking down the street after doing all she has done and have people whispering -- "Oh, my! There goes that poor Theodore Rex girl".

Now, of course if her intent was to make a movie for five year olds and below, then I suppose she could hold her head up high and give a little whistle. Unfortunately, this pile of trash seems to have been made for at least 10 year olds, and that is an insult to all those between the ages of 5 and 6.

But, don't take my word for it. Get a lobotomy and watch it. November 3, 2008

OK at best

I ordered the DVD because we had the tape years ago when the kids were little. Woopie was not at her funniest, but the movie appealed somewhat to the kid in me. I've seen worse, I've seen better. October 29, 2007

Holy moley

Watching this film sober - and even under the influence - is like giving birth out of your ear while simultaneously having a stroke, getting a root canal, and walking in on your parents having sex. In your bed. And as you walk in on them, you step on a rake and it hits you in the face and drives a splinter into your eye.

Yet at the same time it triggers a visceral, masochistic response somewhere deep inside, and you can't help but take pleasure in every mind-numbing attempt at a joke, every sudden idiotic plot twist, and every glimpse of Whoopi's gross spandexed rumpus.

A real treat. June 10, 2007

Fecal Matter!

No wonder Whoopi wanted to dodge this career killer she gives a limp performance much like an actress working under the threat of a lawsuit. The effects are good though as well as one would expect for a 35 million dollar "direct to video" release...(To this day it is the most expensive movie made that has never played in a theater) I think Joel Shumacher aka "I killed Batman" could have done a better job if he were the director of this peice of bovine waste and that is saying a lot...aw screw it it would have been another reel of gay porn much like Batman Returns.......
