    One Word Movie Reviews

    Inspired by the film I went to see tonight, I thought a thread like this might be a good way of gathering some quick movie summaries.
    A couple of obvious examples could be -

    The Matrix: Whoah
    Waterworld: Glug

    No need to stick to exactly one word (tonight's film frankly merits even less than that) but brevity counts.

    Anyway - tonights film (drum roll):

    Indiana Jones And The Kingdom of The Crystal Skull: Meh

    I recommend Cloverfield and Before the devil knows you're dead.

    Well no not really The word was "Inconceivable' however never said "Inconceivably" once during the film.. Inconceivably Good is two words and thereby defeats the purpose of having a one word review. So I used "Inconceivable" (and hinted at it's context with the 'ly good' suffix) follow?

    Oooh have seen Cloverfield !! I forgot about that one.

    Cloverfield : Gigantic?, or Shaky?, or even Head-Explodingly-Brilliant (using the Ducasi clause)

    I think the Ducasi clause is a bit of a must for some films.
