positive · AI labelView post →I’m still reeling from watching Anaconda. I just earnest can’t get over how bad it is. How in the hell did that come from the same team as The Unbearable Weight of Massive Talent? Like, this movie is the definition of “content”. It’s boring, has terrible cinematography,I never laughed once.
