Review by rogerrome

The Roses

6/10

The Good and Bad

It wasn't very far into this film when I realized the screenplay was written by a couple of adolescent boys. Their obsession with sex, sexual innuendos, and profanity couldn't be ignored, no matter how hard I tried to focus on finding a story in the mess. The screenwriters and director are the type who confuse obscenity for comedy, and the sad truth is it did nothing to add value to the story. To their credit, the writers somehow managed to squeeze some nuggets of witty dialogue in here and there between the f-bombs. Coleman and Cumberbatch were superb in their roles, but the fact that so much of this film was offensive to anyone with morals detracted from their performances.
