I do occasionally write about movies and this is what I said about one recently: "Miracle Mile is the stupidest movie I've ever seen. Nothing in the plot makes any sense. There's not even any eye candy. The main character keeps flashing a gun around (for no apparent reason) thru most of the second half and I kept hoping it would discharge and kill the director."
