Like the thread title indicates, this is for awesome quotes in movie reviews.
Like these ones:
From this review of Bratz: The Movie (http://www.cinemablend.com/reviews/Bratz-The-Movie-2456.html):
Bratz is like being raped by MySpace.
From Eric D. Snider's review of Transformers, I think (which I don't have a link to):
It's like spending a day at the state fair: a little bit of actual entertainment, a lot of embarrassingly cheesy attempts at entertainment, and the faint whiff of bull crap everywhere.
From Roger Ebert's review of The Grudge:
I was hoping it would exploit its locations, and become "Lost, Eviscerated and Devoured in Translation."
Ebert again, in his review of Resident Evil:
The characters have no small talk. Their dialogue consists of commands, explanations, exclamations and ejaculations. Yes, an ejaculation can be dialogue. If you live long enough you may find that happening frequently.
From the Washington Post's review of both Happily N'ever After and Code Name: The Cleaner: (http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2007/01/04/AR2007010401962.html)
You won't see them, and even if you do you won't remember it the next day. They're the cinematic equivalents of the bad traffic jam: unqualified torture at the time, but utterly forgotten by the first martini.
Any others?
