What you get when you combine Mickey Rourke,Bill Murray and Megan Fox?

[Droford]

You get this

1. Mickey Rourke is a trumpet player, which we know because he fondles a trumpet mouthpiece like a pacifier. 2. Megan Fox is a winged woman, which we know because she has giant wings sprouting out of her back. 3. At the beginning of the film Rourke is rescued by a fleet of ninjas who shoot his attacker and then run away, never to be explained. 4. It starts as a Western-- man with no name enters a desert town, causes some trouble, etc. etc.-- before Mitch Glazer apparently runs out of Western references and starts making a romantic comedy instead. 5. This is a movie in which someone pours a glass of bourbon and proceeds to smash the glass with a bare hand-- twice. 6. This is a movie in which Megan Fox and Bill Murray don't just share a frame, but hold hands. 7. This is a movie in which Megan Fox and Mickey Rourke don't just share a frame and hold hands, but have fairly graphic sex. 8. This is the point in the movie where many, many critics in the press screening walked out. 9. Fox seems to think this is her bid at being a real actress but she's been cast to basically play a naive, walking Barbie doll. For plot purposes you could replace her with a particularly expensive painting or some other inanimate object and not change the movie all that much. 10. Rourke seems to think he's bringing the same emotional heft to this that he did to The Wrestler, but he also seemed to think that about his long monologue in The Expendables. 11. There is absolutely no telling what Murray is thinking. 12. The film takes place partially in Mexico, but there is snow everywhere. 13. Fox's character supposedly learned English by watching old movies and has never been to America, but talks, well, exactly like Megan Fox. 14. I may have this wrong, but I think Glazer uses a track from Jon Brions Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind in one particularly unimportant scene, to no real effect 15. As you can no doubt tell by now, Passion Play is not a good movie, but it's also so weird and committed to its weirdness that I don't feel right dismissing it. Good luck getting a chance to judge for yourself, though-- Passion Play is seeking distribution at Toronto, and I have a hard time imagining who's going to be bold and crazy enough to make that dream come true.

hmm

I smell Razzie!
