Holy crap. Just when I thought it couldn't get any more horrible, they brought in Guttenberg. Incredible. Who needs waterboarding when our country is pumping out prime-grade stuff like this?

Yeah Private Benjamin from A-Z. Nothing new coming out of Hollywood.

Yeah, "Private Benjamin", with a large soupcon of "Stripes" thrown in as well (both of which of course owe considerable nods to the 1941 Abbott & Costello comedy "Buck Privates", and the Lewis Seiler directed "You're In The Army Now".)

It *IS* like a mix of Uptown Girls and Cadet Kelly ... both of which I've seen a few times.

Looks bad, but at least she joins the service for the same reason as the rest of us.

no, it is legally blond, again. only this time, its, soldier blond?

regardless, is there a full metal jacket ending? the after-basic consequences of being in the army these days? yeah i didnt think so. basic can be conquered by a winsome smile. and then you live happily ever after.

I would pay $10 to see Jessica Simpson step on an IED.

Compare pictures of Robin Williams as the singing cowboy and Bono as Ken Kesey. Eerily similar, hmm?

Yeah, that hurt. The fact that it has the line, "I just threw up in my mouth a little" should tell you everything you need to know about this movie.

I wonder if it will end with her going to Iraq and getting blown up?

Our father who art in heaven, hallowed be thy name, thy kingdom come, thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven, give us this day our daily bread and forgive us our trespasses as we forgive those who tresspass against us. Lead us not into temptation but deliver us from evil for thine is the kingdom, the power and the glory forever and ever. Amen!

OMG! Look what you have done with that horrid clip: you have turned me into a bible thumper, because all I could think to do was pray to god to make the evil stop!!!
