My two line review of Inception:

The Matrix and What Dreams May Come had a baby, raised it on a steady diet of heist movies a la Ocean’s Eleven, and let it play with that nice neighbor boy, Dark City. See it, then scrape your brain offa the theater walls.

"I Watched 146 Minutes of Sex and the City 2 and All I Got Was This Religious Fundamentalism"

Unabashedly the greatest movie review ever written. It doesn’t matter if (like me) you haven’t ever seen even a minute of Sex and the City—the sheer foam-at-the-mouth loathing of the entire ethos of the franchise is enough to have you howling laughing. Stranger writer Lindy West has out-done herself, surely peaking early in her career and doomed forever to languish beneath the shadow of this piece of withering hatred.

You doubt it? Here’s my single favorite line: “SATC2 takes everything that I hold dear as a woman and as a human—working hard, contributing to society, not being an entitled cunt like it’s my job—and rapes it to death with a stiletto that costs more than my car.”

Read on.

(PS: This post has allowed me to make use of tags that I never thought would be used again. My day is complete.)

Update via The Stranger:

Movie|Line has gathered and ranked The 9 Most Scathing Critical Responses to Sex and the City 2—and Lindy West’s Pulitzer-worthy screed tops the list.

Leif writes words, music, code and bug reports; somehow he's still sane.

Nickherder is a science and engineering kind of guy, but we forgive him for it.

SaRRa is using her fancy university degree to blog.
