The Thing, if the Thing was benign/friendly, and everyone involved was an absolutely horribly written, terribly acted woman.
I was actually accused by my wife, during this movie, of just not liking women.
I agreed, of course. But I also added, especially these women, because of how badly they were written, and how inexcusably badly they acted those horribly written parts.
This is a movie that could have been, and should have been, wonderful. The writer/director also wrote Sunshine, the last decade's best sci-fi movie. The last half hour is a reminder of what could have been.
But it wasn't. It sucks. I can deal with a movie sucking. It's harder when you really, really think it shouldn't have.
Someone do this movie correctly, please.
Jennifer Jason Leigh should be put in prison. God does she suck.
