Collected here are more than 200 of his most biting, sarcastic, and funny critiques, selected from those unlucky movies that garnered a rating of a mere two stars or fewer.\u003c\/b\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eRoger Ebert's \u003ci\u003eI Hated, Hated, Hated This Movie\u003c\/i\u003e and \u003ci\u003eYour Movie Sucks\u003c\/i\u003e, which gathered some of his most scathing reviews, were best-sellers. This new collection continues the tradition, reviewing not only movies that were at the bottom of the barrel, but also movies that he found underneath the barrel. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ci\u003eA Horrible Experience of Unbearable Length\u003c\/i\u003e collects more than 200 of his reviews since 2006 in which he gave movies two stars or fewer. Known for his fair-minded and well-written film reviews, Roger is at his razor-sharp humorous best when skewering bad movies. Consider this opener for the one-star \u003ci\u003eYour Highness\u003c\/i\u003e: \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\"\u003ci\u003eYour Highness\u003c\/i\u003e is a juvenile excrescence that feels like the work of 11-year-old boys in love with dungeons, dragons, warrior women, pot, boobs, and four-letter words. That this is the work of David Gordon Green beggars the imagination. One of its heroes wears the penis of a minotaur on a string around his neck. I hate it when that happens.\" \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eAnd finally, the inspiration for the title of this book, the one-star \u003ci\u003eTransformers: Revenge of the Fallen\u003c\/i\u003e: \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ci\u003eTransformers: Revenge of the Fallen\u003c\/i\u003e is a horrible experience of unbearable length, briefly punctuated by three or four amusing moments. One of these involves a doglike robot humping the leg of the heroine. If you want to save yourself the ticket price go, go into the kitchen, cue up a male choir singing the music of hell, and get a kid to start banging pots and pans together. Then close your eyes and use your imagination.\" \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eMovie buffs and humor lovers alike will relish this treasury of movies so bad that you may just want to see them for a good laugh!\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Roger Ebert\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1449410251\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781449410254\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Andrews McMeel Publishing\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 03\/06\/2012\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 384\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.10lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.40h x 5.50w x 1.10d","brand":"Roger Ebert","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":43935860457727,"sku":"9781449410254","price":16.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/products\/img_ca78a573-fd37-4875-bfc4-b8a67ce5e42a.jpg?v=1681422243","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/a-horrible-experience-of-unbearable-roger-ebert-9781449410254","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
