Rollerball
Director: John McTiernan
Starring: Chris Klein, Jean Reno, LL Cool J, Rebecca Romijn-Stamos, Naveen Andrews
Rollerball was trash even back in 1975, but in some small way it was ahead of its time. The new version just makes you feel like you've been watching a lame late-night rerun while stuck in a thunderdome.
Meretricious without being entertaining, it's an easy game -- and an easier film -- to sit out.
Some movies should never have been made, and high on that list is the addled new remake of Rollerball.
The word on Rollerball is "troubled," though troubled is what you call a high school junior with 50 snakes under his bed. Catastrophe is more like it.
This oddly scrambled new version eventually falls apart so badly you feel embarrassed for the people who made it.
