It's A Stinker

Filed under: Jessica Alba

Jessica "Don't Call Me Latina" Alba can't open a movie.

The self-hating actress' new film, Awake, opened with a disappointing $6.01 million at the U.S. box office this weekend.

Perhaps moviegoers find Alba as unappealing as we do. Or maybe they just read the reviews, which savage the film and Don't Call Me Latina.

"Possibly the worst movie of 2007," said one reviewer.

And, countered another critic, "For what it's worth: The best Jessica Alba movie of the year!"

Ha!

      You need to get over that article. Jessica basically said that was how she was raised. Her grandfather wanted her family to be Americans and that was why he moved to America. It's a crazy thing but people live and feel differently about their ethnic identities. She never said she wasn't proud of her heritage, she just has had a different experience than other Latin American women. Why can't you get over it?
      However, I will agree, she really isn't a good actress and she picks terrible scripts. Which is why she can't "open" a movie. Yet, neither can Reese, or Angelina or Sandra Bullock or any other female star.

      5 years from now she'll be making a Mexican soap opera like Erik Estrada.
      It will be called "Oreo" and she will of course play the title part. She will star as a young Guadalajaran senorita who shuns her family, moves to
      Mexico city to pursue her modeling career, ends up as a soft porn star, and then has an epiphany and returns to her hometown to marry a local potter with huge muscular arms and a handlebar moustache.

      I saw this movie last night — and for a Saturday night — it was packed. And I did not hear one person complain. Great twists — and about Alba's acting? The movie is not about her — the guy is the main actor — and he put on a great show — So lets shift the focus FROM Alba to him. I think you guys should not always listen to the fat ass' blogs —what the f*ck does he know? GO WATCH IT FOR YOURSELF — DONT LET HIM RUIN YOUR FUN.

      “My whole life, when I was growing up, not one race has ever accepted me, … So I never felt connected or attached to any race specifically. I had a very American upbringing, I feel American, and I don't speak Spanish. So, to say that I'm a Latin actress, OK, but it's not fitting; it would be insincere.”
      guess it's insincere to be acccepting all those cover offers huh?

      Perez, I want you to move out of your cozy spot in West Hollywood and move into a neighborhood like Koreatown or McArthur Park, both dominantly Mexican neighborhoods. Let's see how much Latino pride you have left after living in the midst of their poverty and filth and noise for a year. Better yet, let's see how you feel about Mexicans breeding after a year of witnessing how many goddamn babies the Mexicans insist on having, education and financial resources be damned. That's all that Jessica Alba was saying, that Mexicans are baby machines. It's true. I think that's the least offensive observation she could have made, since it seems to be such a source of pride for Mexicans. Fuck you, Perez, for insisting that one must be automatically proud of their Latino roots. Pride is something that must be earned.

      i won't pay a penny to see a movie with ms alba. not only she cannot act and i don't find her particularly attractive but it's her self-consciousness of her mexican looks and roots that irritates me the most. she should embrace her heritage and not try to pass as a white danish girl because she looks pretty much like a typical mexican woman. in that regard, i'm glad that her films will bomb at the box office. sometimes we need to feel the pain before we become humble and learn some gratitude for what who we are and what we have instead of tying to be other that who we are. it's a shame that her grandpa did not teach her to love herself as she is. perhaps some mental therapy can help with her low self-esteem. she may also take more acting lessons and cover herself a little to give the impression that she is selling her acting talents, not her body. hopefully she will grow up and accept herself for who she is.

      I think it might of been the subject of the movie, I don't think anyone could have brought major bucks. Since being awake during surgery has actually happened, some people facing surgery are worried that they will wake up during surgery.addd the horror that the story is that the drs. are going to kill the patient and he can't do anything, doesn't make it attractive to those afraid of doctors/hospitals already. Especially if you have surgery coming up. Also, we are going into the holiday season, alot of people want up -lifting films.

      I knew it was bad cuz it wasn't screened for critics beforehand. Alba can't act & she keeps making bad choices. Her next film is 'The Eye' & they had to do reshoots on that one — not a good sign.

      Jesus - since when do we all have to walk around, bragging about our "blood"? It's one thing to embrace your heritage and another thing entirely to run around and use it to try and set yourself apart (i.e. make it seem like you are somehow better than the rest of us).

      If Perez Hilton is so freakin' proud of his own ethnicity, then didn't he just start a blog called mariolavenderia.com???

      And by the way, people go to the movies if they think it's a good movie, not necessarily because one particular actor or actress is in it. 90% of the people who were stupid enough to pay for "Beowulf" did it because of it's a techno-geek's wet dream, not because your pet poochie Angelina Jolie is in it. Don't blame the box office on Jessica.

      THIS MOVIE WAS REALLY GOOD!!!!! I saw it this weekend and Jessica Alba isn't even the main character. So stop hating on the movie just because shes in it. The actual story was a lot better than I expected. It has a very strong ending and I highly recommend it to anyone who loves a movie with meaning.

      I don't know what the critics are talking about. This was an entertaining movie. And Hayden and Alba both gave decent performances (although I was struck by how odd his voice sounds). Ebert and some of the other elite critics actually liked the film. The rest seem mean-spirited and don't want to forgive Hayden for his misguided Anakin portrayal.

      I didn't think this movie was "the Worst Movie of the Year" or a bad performance by Jessica Alba at all. The ending was maybe a little bit disappointing. But I definitely felt this movie had you on the edge of your seat! I thought it was a good movie… I don't understand why people are making this out to be a terrible movie and Jessica Alba's terrible performance. Some people are just too critical and can never be pleased…

      Good suspenseful, "I never saw it coming" type of flick. Don't listen to the critics. I'm glad I saw it.
