After I review a particularly crappy movie, sometimes I’ll head over to Rotten Tomatoes and see what others thought. In the case of the dreadful Fourth Kind, I uncovered some particularly enjoyable, derogatory turns of phrase.
"I’d love to be at a screening of "The Fourth Kind" in Nome, where it’s sure to be greeted as a comedy." —Laura Clifford, Reeling Reviews
"As Truth, it’s bullshit, and as Bullshit, it isn’t remotely entertaining." —Rob Vaux, Mania.com
"…going to great lengths to make us believe the events depicted in this movie are real, but it’s about as a real as the date I had with Jennifer Aniston in my dreams the other night." —Willie Waffle, WaffleMovies.com
"If aliens from another world ever do come to Earth and get a look at "The Fourth Kind," they may decide that any species capable of creating anything this dumb is probably too stupid to probe and conquer in the first place." —Peter Sobczynski, eFilmCritic.com
"In short, The Fourth Kind pisses on your leg, tells you it’s raining, and then tries to sell you a raincoat made of dog hair and corn chips." —Brian Juergens, CampBlood.org
"Alien abductees are back and they are still idiots." —Victoria Alexander, FilmsInReview.com
Clearly I was far too kind in my own review when I called it "a forgettable film of the type that will play on Sy Fy for years to come." As was RevSF’s Derek Johnson when he declared, "What the hell?"
