The Onion Movie

I finally watched the Onion Movie last night. I was pretty excited about it since I love the onion so much, even though the movie was not shown in theaters due to it's suckiness. But as a loyal fan, I assumed it only sucks if you're stupid and that's 90% of people; pleasing 10% of the public isn't good enough for a feature movie. Assuming made an ass out of me and my daughter. First of all, let me clearly state that this is not a movie for children. If you don't believe me, you will when you kid says "Tete, why he's sayin 'fuck' all the time?" (In my defense, it was a PG movie up until one "negro" character used the F word ten times in as many seconds; after that her dolls needed some urgent attention, or so I said.)

Anyways, I'm sorry to say that after 40 minutes I started to say to myself "When the fock is this thing going to end?" Several of the bits are funny, some hilarious, especially towards the end (that is to say, they got funnier with each glass of wine), but the arc that holds them together is, to put it gently, the weakest piece of tripe that I've ever seen, and I've seen at least two dozen movies from the 99 cent bin at the car wash. I've very sorry to say that it's not even worth borrowing from a friend. If you've got nothing else to kill your time with, or if you're totally stoned maybe it will entertain you...but I was truly disappointed. Sorry Onion.
