It takes guts to make a movie with a title so obviously mock-worthy. Not brains, but guts. A nerdy prep school kid (Thora Birch), her pretty-girl friend (Keira Knightley) and a couple of boys (nobody I recognized) get themselves stuck in an abandoned bomb shelter (and a palatial-if-dusty one at that), and things go wrong from there. The tale is told a la Rashomon, though more than one of the versions come from the protagonist's perspective. So we wade through several iterations of the story, each less pleasant and more pathetic than the last. See if desperate
Media criticism. Pop culture snark. And movie reviews. Lots and lots of movie reviews.
