Film Review - Death to Smoochy
This is just a horrible train wreck of a film. Death to Smoochy could have been quite a good comedy if only it hadn't violated a very important rule. Never let your villain be more interesting than the hero. It probably didn't help that the hero is also very annoying, and one wouldn't really mind seeing him meet a horrible death. I haven't hoped the hero would be killed off so much since Johnny Mnemonic. Robin Williams is the bad guy, they should have made him Smoochy so these errors would not have happened.
Step away from the DVD!
