FINALLY! "Bernie" is a movie worth watching

Bernie (9) got me back to the theater. Glad I went (for a change.)

The Brothers Bloom

Rating: 1 out of 10

Title: Starring: Adrien Brody, Mark Ruffalo, Rachel Weisz, Rachel Weiez

Genre: Action Drama
Plot: The Louisville paper gave this movie 3 stars (out of 4) and Entertainment Weekly rated it "8", so I went expecting to be entertained. Instead it was a boring farce of an unfunny con-game played out out from Berlin to Montenegro to New Jersey to Prague to Russia. The intricacies of the caper woven by two brothers (Weisz is their "mark") are so confusing I never knew what was going on. Maybe the critics couln't either, but were afraid to admit it.
