Ann Althouse has started a thread about rules for movies, and Trooper York sez:

The reason why people hate this movie can be spelled out in two words: Robin Williams. I have some rules in life: Never play cards with any man named “Doc.” Never eat at any place called “Mom’s.” And never, never, no matter what else you do in your whole life, never go to see a movie starring Robin Williams.

To which I add The Hurt Principle: Any movie with William Hurt in it will be unwatchable, pretentious garbage, except for the scene in which Hurt gets killed (if there is one). Case in point: A History of Violence.
