Bad Movie

click here to listen to the audiochetan for the post's title

At the point of regret, there's no going back
You paid for a bad movie
And that's a fact
No wonder the place is half empty

Can't leave the theater now
You'll subject yourself to the suffering
To justify your ticket purchase somehow
You sit through the bad acting

So what if there are long unexplained scenes?
Silent shots of houses on a residential street
The audience having no idea what anything means
Where the characters are robotic drones who never meet?

But you'll sit there
Because you bought a ticket
And though you don't care
Sitting the full time will make it worth it

But you know it won't, it's that funny
You'll just have an excuse in hand
To not spend any more money
Cause time's up and you have to head home again

And then the morning after reviews to friends
"I personally didn't like it."
"Not good how it ends."
Shouldn't have listened to the film critic
