Rushmore

There is not much for me to say besides I really just didn't like this movie. I'm not even sure of any good thing I could say about it. Actually, the soundtrack was terrific. But otherwise, I found it so typical and bland. I feel as if I could have seen hundreds of movies of this nature. There was a clear effort to make this movie intriguing but I missed that somewhere along the way. Perhaps the one element conveyed to me in "Rushmore," a theme you might say, is that there is beauty in being ridiculous and living for what pleases you no matter how outlandish it is. It's kind of a lovely truth, and I guess I could benefit from the lesson learned there. I guess I did learn something from this, but I simply did not enjoy it.
