Don't Watch this Movie

You wouldn't think that a movie can put you off other movies, but it has happened, i have unfortunately had to study one for my education. I would say it was like having a perfectly cooked stake, with just the right amount of seasoning, or drinking the most delicious hot chocolate, where you experince ten minutes of sensual bliss, but from then on all other steak is too tough and the hot chcolate too powdery. But i hated the movie, so it was more like drinking too much baileys so that you feel sick, then everytime you go to drink and sweet alcoholic drink, your body remembers the last time you drank it and the unsettling feeling returns.
Anyway if you are still reading this blog still, i'm guessing you want to know what the movie is called, so i will tell you now that it is The Player. And what is so bad about it? It points out the process of movie making, and how it is all about targeting audiences to make money. Study the movie too hard and you will drive yourself insane. It is pretty much a movie within a movie. The man character (who also sweats profusely) in the movie explains that there is a checklist of elements that appeal to an audience, that also happen to be found in the movie itself. Amongst nudity, sex, romance and whatever, he points out that the main thing that people want to see it a happy ending. Why make a movie non realistic by doing so? The Player highlights that the audience doesn't want realism, they want fantasy and resolutions they cant find in their own life.
So how does that make this movie a movie wrecker? By reminding you that you are being fed a commercial formula. Once having watched this movie you begin to realise the way you are being manipulated to watch the same synops in every single movie, in which before you were innocent to it all. It is like going to maccas after watching supersize me, or a kid learning there is no santa clause. You may not get fat, or you may feel more mature, but you have to agree, maccas taste so much better without the guilt and santa clause was pretty cool. So from a ZoHan to you, either don't watch the movie, or, if you have watch more art house movies. Sometimes it's better to stay innocent.
