One Hour Photo

it was a while ago that I saw this movie, but here's what I remember:

This movie didn't have very much development and had no exciting or interesting moments at all. Unless you count the one scene that seemed like it was straight out of a horror movie. Now, including an uncharacteristic scene for the sake of conveying an important message is something I can understand. But not only was this scene uncharacteristic (and horrific), but its meaning wasn't even remotely clear or straightforward like the rest of the movie was. So that sort of makes it uncharacteristic on two levels, as well as obscene. But enough about specific scenes, what about the plot?

The basic development of this movie can be summarized, without trying to give it away too much, by the following metaphor: say you have two friends, Jack and Earnie. They're friends for many years, until one day Jack discovers somehow that Earnie is very lonely and likes him a little too much.. so Jack stops talking to him and they're no longer friends. ...The End.

In short, this was the worst movie I've ever seen Robin Williams play a part in. ..come to think of it, it was one of the worst movies I've seen, period.

Hell, there was a Roseanne episode that was *MUCH* better at conveying this theme than this movie was, because sitcoms don't have to be pretentious. (I'd tell you the episode name but I can't find it at this time.)
