up the boat and ended up a dud? What movies have you watched which you felt had four star potential written all over it but wound up missing the boat and ended up being a dud?
But I'm a Cheerleader, Smart People and Pumpkin were movies which I felt could have had 'four star' potential but wound up disappointing. I was looking forward to Natasha Lyonne's movie But I'm a Cheerleader, seeing how impressive she was in The Slums of Beverly Hills but Cheerleader sucked pretty bad.
I recently watched Pumpkin--and was looking forward to it. The plot intrigued me. The storyline of the college girl who has the perfect life: financially wealthy parents, friends in a high social status in AO Pi in SCSU and a tennis college star boyfriend Kent but only to throw it all away and fall in love with a mentally challenged boy named Pumpkin Romanoff could have yielded critical acclaim and hilarious results. But it turned out to be a predictable, run-of-the-mill teen romantic comedy.
