A Clockwork Of Melancholy

This movie was horrible, not 'so bad, it's good' horrible, just horrible. It's like being with the epitome of stupidity (i.e. the majority of my high school classmates, heh.) for 95 minutes of your life. I actually enjoy some of Wayne Brady's work, (Chappelle's Show, Whose Line Is It Anyway?, etc.) but why would Wayne Brady agree to do this?

There is absolutely no redeeming qualities (Even though Wayne Brady was in it.) to this film. The dialogue was bad, the plot was bad, the music was bad, the whole thing was bad. I hope to one day reclaim that 95 minutes of my life I lost to Crossover, but for now, it is gone.

An insult to all people. If you want to watch a 'so bad, it's good' movie, I highly advise you to watch Trolls II or something similar to that, not this. If you have serious mental retardation, you'll still not like this movie, no one should endure this pain. (And if anyone says they enjoyed this film, it's a lie! The only reason they would say such a lie is because they relate to a character in the movie, and their 'socially acceptable retardation', not because they enjoy it.)
