What the #$*! Do We Know!? (2004)

This documentary would not normally fit into the universe of films that I even consider viewing, but I watched it as, say, a social courtesy. It easily won as the worst film for 2004 (so far), dethroning the apparently invincible "Being Julia". But it was not fair game. How can you beat this combination of self help new age mumbo jumbo and fake science documentary, spiced up with bits of drama and plenty of computer animation and CGI effects? The cherry of the cake are of course the deep insights of the blonde aging new age priestess telling us about the importance of the inner spirit in opposition to the illusory material world. Go tell it to your plastic surgeons, ma'm. My advice: give yourself a break and skip this movie.
