Bad Movie Alert

BUT! BUT! What's wrong with Robin Williams doing his best Hide the Pain Harold for 2 hours?

Anastasia

I liked this movie a lot when it came out, and I still have a soft spot for the visuals (sorry, Big Joel). But yikes, that stewardess scene is so much creepier than I remembered.   What's also weird is that it undercuts a theme in the movie. Specifically, that in Heaven you sometimes meet people you already knew, but looking a different way, so you can get to know them again from a different perspective. For example, Williams' son isn't just randomly a black guy. For a large chunk of the movie, he is pretending to be Williams' old mentor from med school, who was a black man. The son later explicitly says that he did this in order to get his dad to listen to advice - something he would be unlikely to do if he knew the advice was coming from his teenaged (in life) son.   But like. Why…would his daughter…choose a specific appearance because "my dad found this woman hot"?   I know suggesting fixes to movies is pointless, but - imagine this. "I went to Singapore with my father once. Getting to the airport was so stressful, we were late and my father was clearly angry and upset. We finally got on the plane, and this woman, with this nametag, came up to us and asked us if we wanted anything to drink. My father let out a big breath, and smiled, and said yes. And suddenly he wasn't mad anymore.  I thought, imagine being the kind of person who never makes people mad, who makes people happy as soon as they see you. I want to be *just like her* when I grow up." And then maybe throw in some cute thing that both her and her father got some specific drink, like orange juice with exactly two (2) ice cubes, and Williams says the drink order along with her.   Williams protests that it wasn't that he was mad at her, and she interrupts and says she knows, it wasn't that stewardess specifically, it was getting on the plane safely and being able to relax etc etc, But, she still tends to choose this form when she is meeting someone and really, really wants them to be happy to see her.   And Williams goes, "I am ALWAYS happy to see you. No matter what."   And then we get her dropping the disguise like we do in the actual movie.

OMG the one little clip of the crane flying in the swirly sky made me almost puke. Different movie, but similar cringey race stuff, have you seen The Cobbler (2014)?

The cinematography gives me big Thomas Kinkade energy. You should check out the Nicolas Cage film Family Man btw. It's meant to be a Christmas fantasy comedy but is accidentally one of the most depressing films I've ever seen. Imagine if Jingle All the Way ended with Arnie getting divorced and his wife takes the kids (not what happens in Family Man, but similar in tone).

This movie was a lot like what the book "the 5 people you meet in heaven" was to me - everyone else seemed to think it was so touching and lovely and deep, and all I saw was over sentimental schmultz with some weird flaws in it (like the Asian flight attendant bit). Big Joel has made me feel so valid now.

Big Joel, this is probably your most savage video yet. I’ve never seen this movie, but I do feel lots of sappy nostalgia for Robin Williams and his sad little face, so maybe it would’ve gotten some emotions out of me. I’m fascinated now because this is movie clearly has a huge gulf between what the creators thought they were communicating to the audience, and what we actually got. What were they trying to say with the daughter scene? What about it was supposed to be heartwarming? I feel the need to look for a director’s commentary now, I just have to know.

I watched this movie when I was a teenager with my mom and we sat on the couch and cried about these poor dead kids and the dead husband and the dead wife but at the end I was like what the fuck was that? Why was it so sad for no reason? And then I got older and I realized it was kinda like Dante’s Inferno, but that really can’t explain all the choices you outline here Joel. A+ roasting this bad movie.
