Review of Singles

Singles (1992)
3/10
Boring Tripe
20 May 2001
Completely boring, derivative, and predictable plot. Characters are silly cardboard cut-out cliches and the "comedy" is paint by the numbers. Every joke, every twist can be predicted before it happens on screen. I see no evidence of originality and felt no real human emotions were touched upon in even the most superficial way.

People note this film for its music, but it seems to me the inclusion of the Seattle "Pearl Jamish" music and scene is just a attempt at mainstream Hollywood trying to make a derivative and wholly uninteresting concept/characters seem "cool" and appeal to the pop culture mainstream of the time.

FINAL RATING: 3/10 Don't waste your time. Spend 2 hours staring at the wall instead.
