Summary: Watch out! Here comes the J-Lo Bomb!
Ever since "Anaconda" slithered onto the big screen a few years ago, I've been waiting for J-Lo's next big bomb. But months and then years passed. The lady with the big booty seemed to have the Midas touch. Everything she did seemed to turn to gold, sell out the box office and even get some critical acclaim. "The Wedding Planner" was hailed as the greatest romantic comedy since "Schindler's List." "Out Of Sight" had them swooning. "J-Lo and Clooney!! What chemistry!!!!" Even a stinker like "The Cell" didn't garner the scorn it so deserved.
Well, "Gigli" has done it. If this film doesn't bury J-Lo's career, then nothing will!
...
Needless to say, I was pulling out my eyebrows with a pair of red hot tweezers by the time the closing credits rolled down the screen. Nobody was left by then. Nobody. They were all gone.
All gone.
The stench was unbearable. The corpses littered the ground. The sky was red. Bloody red. Red.

Summary: How did this movie get made?
I went to see Gigli. I walked out. I like Ben and Jen but I have no idea how they would even do that movie. It was boring and slow. Every other word was a curse word. It was so dumb I felt like my brain was melting.

Summary: THE Worst movie I have ever been forced to attend!
I just don't consider myself lucky to have been invited to a pre-screening of this movie. In fact, if Saddam Hussein were still in power, watching this movie would have been added to the list of torture tactics. I can see it now...political prisoners would have their eyelids glued open, forced to take several No-Doze tablets and drink liters of Jolt...and then sit and watch this movie over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over!

Summary: Makes Ishtar look Like Citizen Kane
I never thought I would dislike a movie this much.... I could even put up with Ishtar and Hulk Hogan as Mr. Nanny...but this was painful. The premise alone should have been enough to sink this bomb, but I guess the studios still believe that STAR POWER can make up for ineptitude. The audience I was with found J-Lo's Gobble Gobble scene to be the only redeeming factor, since by then we all could use a good laugh. Given a choice between a root canal without novocaine and seeing this one again...Rinse and spit.
ROTFLOL --with tears streaming down my face!
