Waking Up in Reno Review

Waking Up in Reno

Starring: Billy Bob Thornton, Charlize Theron, Patrick Swayze, Natasha Richardson, Brent Briscoe, Mark Fauser, Wayne Federman, Billy O'Sullivan

Directed by: Jordan Brady

Written by: Brent Briscoe, Mark Fauser

Genre(s): Romance

Rating: R

Runtime: 110 minutes

Released: October 25, 2002

Plot:

A movie’s plot is its infrastructure. Unfortunately, this film’s plot falls well short. Waking Up in Reno’s terrible plot is a main culprit. Let it be known, this is possibly the finest example of bad film writing.

Rating: ★☆☆☆☆


Execution:

Waking Up in Reno’s plot is a real disappointment, because it seems as if the writing could have been crafted substantially better. Its production and direction were simply not up to par. Overall, the acting was reasonably strong thanks primarily to Billy Bob Thornton and Charlize Theron.

Rating: ★★☆☆☆


Entertainment:

We were not very entertained. It just amazes us that a film this dull actually got made. Should you decide to watch this movie, be sure to set an alarm — you’re almost certainly going to fall asleep.

Rating: ★★½☆☆


Overall, Rent or Buy?

Don’t rent or buy. It’ll only encourage them to make even more similar movies.

Rating: ★½☆☆☆
