Don’s Plum (2001)

 “I’m better looking then you why doesn’t that kind of shit happen to me? ” – Derek

Number of Times Seen – 1 (9 Sep 2015)

Brief Synopsis – A group of friends spend the night in a bar talking about their lives

My Take on it – This is a movie that most people have never heard of…and there’s good reason for that.

This movie is just plain silly and the characters talk on and on while really having nothing interesting to say.

Unfortunately, stars Tobey Maguire and Leonardo DiCaprio were so embarrassed that they at one point in the early part of their careers needed to make mo0ey decided to sue the producer and get it banned from distribution.  IMHO, this is a terrible precedent because this is a form of censorship; they read the script, they got paid to act and because their careers took off later, that shouldn’t be a reason to stop people from watching this.

The real reason people shouldn’t watch this is because it is total crap….

Bottom Line – Stupid, raunchy movie that probably never should have been made. Dialogue doesn’t flow well between the characters. Forget about banning it, just avoid it.

MovieRob’s Favorite Trivia – As a result of a lawsuit brought by stars Leonardo DiCaprio and Tobey Maguire (settled in 1999), this film cannot be shown commercially in the USA or Canada. (From IMDB)

Rating – Razzie Worthy
