May. 30th, 2002 11:29 amI wish that IFC would stop showing films like Shallow Grave and Trainspotting that make me remember what a great actor Ewan McGregor was before getting sucked into Industrial Light and Magic.
I mean, the guy was reduced to pointing and shouting, "Look! Over there!" -- a line that should NEVER, EVER, NEVER be in a movie.
So Attack of the Clowns was kind of like that. But I suppose that the only real question was, "was it worse than the last one." About midway through this film I realized that I almost couldn't answer the question, because the last one made so little impression on me that I had forgotten the "plot." So this one at least made some impression, like the scene from Blade Runner near the beginning and the scene from Star Wars near the end... I still don't see that kid sounding like James Earl Jones anytime soon, though.
