This makes The Informers look like The Rules of Attraction. It would be comparable to a late Joel Schumacher film, except the critically maligned Bret Easton Ellis ripoff Twelve is even a cut above this. There are a few moments in this that are bound to become legendary in their own right, though.

Haha, Schumacher would've never been able to make this ridiculous script watchable.

That implies that it is, in its current form, watchable.

Makes garbage look like garbage? (I'm assuming on The Informers).

Replace The Rules of Attraction with American Psycho, if that better makes my point for you. It makes something that is commonly considered to be a gigantic pile of shit look like something commonly considered to be at the very least not bad. Your mileage may vary.

I had no trouble watching it. I never thought "when is this going to be over?" or "I really want to turn this off."

I know who bored me.

Possibly the worst movie I have ever seen in a theater. A trainwreck in the worst sense. This movie may have a home on Showtime circa 1999. Straight to VHS.

[Grouchy]

Yeah, this was unbearable.

This reminded me of The Room in a lot of ways.

I've been morbidly curious to see this film ever since I read that lengthy article chronicling Schrader's Herculean struggles to tame Lindsay Lohan, preventing the blast radius of her self-destruction from enveloping the production, and instead channeling said explosive energy into her performance.

The responses in this thread have only served to heighten that curiosity.
