The world “terrible” is thrown around a lot these days, especially by me, but most of the time it is more “comparatively terrible”, meaning it is bad by my standards. Then there are movies that are truly terrible, that literally are not watchable. Say hello to The Goods.
This is a movie that is just painfully unfunny. It is just poorly written and even if there is something potentially humorous, it is poorly executed. There’s some good talent in this movie but they are hampered by a horrible script and direction. Everything is just so stupid and weird. James Brolin walking around with an erection? I’m sure that does a lot for his legacy. There is just absolutely no flow or timing at all. It’s just people making over the top weird comments that aren’t funny but acting like they are.
Every man has his limits, and The Goods pushed me beyond mine. I have sat through many, many terrible movies this year alone, and I’ve done it so I can get you (you know who you are) a review. I’m willing to give even the worst movie 30 minutes before I walk out, and even that was painful in this movie. Let me just say “The Goods? More like The Bads.” The sad part is, that horrible joke is better than everything in the movie.
