What is it with Natalie Portman movies and this thread. 5 of her movies made this thread and I enjoyed them all.

Closer, i just felt was pointless. There was a lot of hype, I didn't really understand why. I like Natalie Portman, I like Clive Owen, I just didn't feel like this one deserved all the hype.
As for Bad Santa, maybe offensive wasn't the right word, I didn't find the film offensive, I felt like he was trying to make it offensive or mean to get the laughs. I just always get the impression with Billy Bob Thorton movies that he is just trying so hard to be a badass or really mean because he thinks that is funny, like in this movie with how he treats the kid and in that Bad News Bears remake he did, where he again plays an alcoholic that treats the kids like crap. To me, he just keeps recycling the same character. I didn't see anything smart about the film, but that's just my opinion.
