I Reaped the Benefits
By Michele Dillon
I am just going to come right out and say it; this movie is going to be my second veto that I apply. The Reaping does not deserve to be on this Worst list. I watched this when it came out in the theatre, rented a few times after that and then watched and thoroughly enjoyed it for this review. I see nothing that is so wrong with this movie that it deserves to be on this list. I think that whoever voted negatively for this movie was probably a pissed off religious person who didn’t like the message of the movie. However, offensive to you or not, the movie still had a good script and was acted well. Ok, so the ending wasn’t great, and was kind of Soap Opera-y-ish BUT the rest of the movie had a lot going for it and I have seen A LOT worse. Now, I am not saying either that this is one of the best movies I have seen (Ahem, Inglorius Basterds, Ahem). I just think that if I can watch a movie numerous times, not get bored from it and still enjoy the idea then it is not a bad movie in my opinion. There really isn’t anything else to say because the movie is kind of hard to explain without giving anything away. I will just put a side bar in here with a brief description.
Side bar: it’s about the 10 plagues.
