Gigle

Remember, there was Bennifer long before Brangelina


Ten Worst Romantic Movies:

1)“Atonement” (2007) This film is sad from the start. Actress Keira Knightley plays Cecilia, a woman who is separated from the man she loves, Robbie Turner (played by James McAvoy) after he is imprisoned for a crime he did not commit and is then enlisted in the British army. The story is twisted because the Robbie is accused by Cecilia's younger sister Briony, played by Saoirse Ronan (of “The Lovely Bones”). Basically, the film is of their attempt to carry on a distant relationship, and just when you think there is hope for them to be together after the war, they both die. The only hope the audience has left is if they can atone for their sin of paying to watch this movie.

2)“Gigli” (2003) Before watching the film, someone might think that two A-list stars put together on screen would produce somewhat of a decent movie. Gigli is one of the biggest exceptions to that rule. Ben Affleck plays Gigli and is asked to kidnap a man. Ricki, played by Jennifer Lopez, is sent to help with the kidnapping. Putting aside the “Sopranos”-wannabe acting by Affleck and Lopez, the romance in this film was scarce to start, when both characters tried to act tough and hide their emotions. Any hope of romance in the film goes down the drain once Gigli finds out that Ricki is a lesbian. This film is remembered but definitely not in a good way.
