Lovesusti The Worst Film Ever

Nayan Gough A great movie, one of the best of this year. There was a bit of confusion at one point in the plot, but nothing serious.

Curt Watching it is like watching the spectacle of a class clown at their best: you laugh at their jokes, instigate their defiance, and "ooooh" when they get in trouble.

ryankatz5 John candy was in this movie but he is not on the cast list. Please fix this.

leplatypus A Hugues movie about a cool boy secluded in a empty place and who faces burglars ? So it's as much « Home Alone » than « career opportunities ». If the former is for kids (and adults who remains kids), this one is for teens or young adults as it's about getting a job and making own life. The way he manages his life and how Jen manages her is really accurate and interesting as we have feelings about two different attitudes ! Next, this movie is a real pleasure for me as i have always the fantasy to spend a night alone in a mall (see also « where the heart is » with Nathalie Portman). In addition, it looks like the Twin Pines Mall from another masterpiece in American coming of age (« back to the future »). So, maybe the one who is looking for a crude, funny comedy will be disappointed but the one looking for growing up in small town, USA will be happy. That's my case and it's probably Jen's best movie at this moment of life !

John Fonte Imagine yourself as a compulsively lying geek. Now, imagine your geek-self in the late 1980s/early 1990s.This is Jim, the main character of Career Opportunities. He cannot hold a job in an era where jobs flow infinitely from a river of the Reagan heyday. As part of the generation of fresh college graduates without steady income, I envy the luxuries that Jim takes for granted.Amidst his quarter-life crisis of how Jim should be as an adult, he lands a job as a "night clean-up boy" at Target. While normally this would be seen as unimpressive, Jennifer Connelly as 21 year old Josie saves the day with her charm, striking incisors, and of course, her low-cut tops.As many of the other reviews on IMDb for this movie have stated: Jennifer Connelly makes this movie. To put it another way: there is no reason to watch this movie if the poignant Jennifer Connelly did not star. But she did, and with her voluminous bosom, she carried the film (to term).It goes without saying that her natural beauty can be construed as objectified sex appeal for this movie. I, as an open chauvinist male, agree that that was her purpose. As much as we critics mind the boorish measures that Universal Studios takes to promote this film, I honestly believe that Jennifer Connelly is okay with flashing smiles and cleavage the most of all; after all, she is the one laughing her way to the bank.And with that, the most salient theme is her physical objectification (coupling this with some visceral jazz saxophone solos really don't help). Red tops. Red necklaces. Riding mechanical ponies. These scenes were all attempts to distract my short-term memory from the pedestrian and pointless overall character of this film. For me, it worked.What is probably the most disconcerting aspect of this film is the protagonist Jim. He is an unwieldy and jejune boy. When encountered with a beautiful women, we as the audience are forced to endure the awkward bouts of puberty. Simply, we want to grab Jim by the throat and say, "MAKE A MOVE! STOP F***ING LYING." Yet, we experience his own demise.What I mean by the last line is that the film does not provide closure for the relationship between Josie and Jim (and where are we with Jim's father's late night eatings?! Surely, that contributes to the plot, right? Oh wait, that's right, I've given the film too much credit; those scenes have ABSOLUTELY NOTHING TO DO with the rest of the film). What happens is that **Connelly** saves the day, and Jim does nothing to deserve her.If you want to look for a film where obtaining a beautiful (and clearly objectified) woman is justified, then look somewhere else. Jim has done nothing to deserve her. And we as the audience are to watch this inconsistency realize itself before our eyes.And my eyes have melted. I want them back. This movie was not worth the loss of my vision. I hope you all can agree with that.

Uriah43 "Jim Dodge" (Frank Whaley) is an unambitious but very creative young man who can't seem to hold a job because he prefers to live in a fantasy world. Even though he is 21 years-old he still lives with his parents and doesn't really care to move out. One day his father, "Bud Dodge" (John M. Jackson) forces him to get a job at a nearby Target store as the "night cleanup boy". When he reports for his first shift the head custodian locks him in the store and Jim finds himself all alone with a huge area to clean. At least he thinks he's all alone. Meanwhile, a beautiful young woman by the name of "Josie McClellan" (Jennifer Connelly) is having problems with her rich and physically abusive father, "Roger Roy McClellan" (Noble Willingham) so she decides to venture to Target with the intent to embarrass him by getting arrested for shop-lifting. As luck would have it, she falls asleep in the clothing department and wakes up to find Jim skating through the aisles in his underwear. But that's just the beginning of the adventure for both of them. Anyway, rather than disclose what happens next and possibly spoil the picture for those who haven't seen it I will just say that this was a nice little comedy with a definite 80's flavor. While Frank Whaley was amusing, the main attraction was clearly Jennifer Connelly as she was simply gorgeous. On the other hand, the conversation between the two of them sometimes seemed awkward and forced. Likewise, because this film is so light and breezy there isn't much depth to it at all. All things considered then, I rate this movie as average.
