Let me put it this way:
1. I'm gay for Willem DaFoe (Boondock Saints = best movie ever)
2. I'm super-ultra gay for Johnny Depp
3. El Mariachi and Desperado were insanely great movies
4. Salma Hayek could de-fagify any man short of Christopher Lowell.
That being said, OUATIM sucked balls. Not just any balls, but big, hairy baboon balls with elephantitis and fleas.
Why?
- Johnny Depp trying to save the movie was like a rogue penguin trying to stop the Titanic from sinking.
- Willem DaFoe didn't get enough liberties to be batshit insane
- Not nearly enough Salma Hayek (5 minutes of crap action sequence WOO!)
- Special effects looked like something in a really bad student film. Sparks flying off bodies? Spouts of flame coming from RPG explosions?
- Plot was incredibly disorganized, editing looked like something done by a Down's child.
- While some suspension of disbelief is required in any action film, this required more suspension than the Golden Gate Bridge.
