The Fanatic

It's hard to find words to describe The Fanatic, since everyone, who saw the movie already said everything that needed to be said about it. It's a very bizarre movie with so many things that are very weak or very bad and you can tell that no one didn't had any passion while making it. Every choice that they did was the wrong one. This is probably John Travolta's lowest point that he has been in his entire career and gives the worst performance that i've seen this year.

The story was so horribly written that i was questioning everything that was happening from the beginning to the end. The way John Travolta's character was written and portrayed in the movie was very bad and the character Hunter Dunbar was so rude throughout the whole movie he doesn't have a reason to treat the main character like that. Both characters do so many things that are very stupid and weird. The movie failed at almost everything and i had a hard time finding positives, but it was impossible and unfortunately it's one of the worst movies of the year.

I was late to the party on this and I went in to it not expecting much but more curious as to why it's an underground cult classic.

I honestly don't think it deserves such a poor score. Ok, it's not the highest budgeted movie in the world, with the best script but I can honestly say I have definitely seen far worse. It was watchable and it kept my attention.

Travolta did such a good job with this character that I genuinely felt sorry for him at the end - Moose didn't deserve to be hurt.

As for Sawa's character he's definitely typecast in to very similar roles and genres - I wish he'd be cast in something different.

This has to be one of the greatest pieces of "so bad it's good" cinema in a while. If you're fans of "The room" , "Birdemic", "showgirls" and Neil Breen, you will surley enjoy this piece of confusing "mishmash" of a movie, with undeveloped bunch of pointless charecters, with unclear motives and charecteristics, strange editing, very aqward dialogues and the hair. Most of all I just don't get the hair. Just becaouse someone is Autistic or suffers from a developmental disability, doesn't mean he cuts his hair with a lawn mower. Who cares, the whole things is just super funny. Also funny: all the positive reviews here posted by sientologists.

Make sure you watch it with good friends and plenty od sarcasm.

This movie does to Travolta what Battlefield Earth did to movies.

I know this will be ignored. But I hope it doesn't.

Imagine this: John Travolta still as Moose.

Fred Durst as the paparazzi girl.

Nicolas Cage as the Final Destination actor.

Please.

I BEG you to think about it.

Some movies really need the strangeness of The Nic. And, well... if some people don't agree with this statement, this disaster is here to prove them wrong.

Even the thought of this possibility makes me rase my rating from a 2 to a 3.
