I've seen some good movies lately (Stardust), some harmlessly bad movies (War -- Quick! Name your favorite Jet Li movie, and also, help me win a bet -- has he ever kissed a girl in a movie? He almost danced with Aayliah in Romeo Must Die, and did he maybe almost kiss someone in Twin Warriors?), but then tonight I saw
Septemper Dawn, and it was one of the worst movies I've ever seen.
My brother and I went into this knowing nothing other than it had John Voight in it and that the poster said it was "CONTROVERSIAL." Which, yeah, I guess. You could say that a movie that sets out a clear agenda to conflate Islam and Mormonism without a basic understanding of either, and uses a massacre as a plot device, could be "controversial."
