                121. A Glimpse Inside the Mind of Charles Swan III
                Charlie Sheen, Jason Schwartzman, Bill Murray, Katheryn Winnick, Patricia Arquette, Aubrey Plaza, Mary Elizabeth Winstead, Dermot Mulroney

                Director: Roman Coppola
                Writer: Roman Coppola
                MPAA Rating: R
                Release Date: February 8th (limited)
                RT Score: 15% (8 fresh. 45 rotten)
                The Plot by Palooza: The Charlie Sheen Story as told by a Wes Anderson-wannabe.
                Comments:
                Beyond the obnoxious title, there are two major reasons why this movie has been given the honor of Worst of the Year - Roman Coppola and Charlie Sheen.

                Roman Coppola is the son of Francis Ford Coppola and the brother of Sophia Coppola, both filmmakers and if you do not know who either of them are I'm unsure as to why you are even reading this. We'll be seeing Sophia Coppola very soon, so I won't exhaust myself here. Basically, she sucks. Francis Ford Coppola sucks now, too, what a god damn shame. Whatever. Back to Roman. This guy is an Oscar nominated writer for 2012's Moonrise Kingdom, which he wrote with Wes Anderson. And there-in lies the problem. His greatest achievement is also the reason this movie sucks. Wes Anderson has a very specific style, both aesthetically and in terms of storytelling. Here, Coppola makes a movie that tries so hard to fit into a genre which films only include ones made by Anderson that it borders on mockery. It's an absolute bastardization; as if Wes Anderson had serious brain trauma and then attempted to continue to make movies in some mentally disabled state. The supporting cast lead is lead by Anderson cast offs Jason Schwartzman and Bill Murray along with Aubrey Plaza and Mary Elizabeth Winstead. This looks great on paper, but they float through this movie and are for some reason willing to embarrassing themselves at every turn.

                It's fitting such a piece of shit film is lead by someone with no shame in embarrassing themselves. Carlos Estevez aka Charlie Sheen does his Two and a Half Men / Anger Management dance through the entire movie, putting on ridiculous costumes, hamming it up in the worst of ways and just dragging you through the excruciatingly pretentious, weird, and obnoxious life and sometimes daydreams of a piece of shit human. It's awful in the worst of ways. No entertainment value.
                If you like Charlie Sheen then


                Spoiler Alert - nothing happens, there are no spoilers.

                      I didn't see as much shit this year as I did in years past. Lots of mediocrity, though.

                          For what its worth, it didnt feel like 3 hours long and it was #3 of the year for myself.

                            Blue is the Warmest Color is overrated. It really becomes exposed when you compare it to the actual best films of the year. Not in the same class.

                              In an effort to avoid running out of steam this year I am going to make sure the write ups aren't as out of control for the movies nobody gives a shit about. You'll see what I mean shortly.
