This weekend's movies

Anyone read the reviews going around for the movies starting this weekend? Apparently, the only movie worse than American Wedding is Gigli. Is this possibly the worst two movies to appear at once?
Elvis Mitchell says that American wedding is almost a film, and that it compares negatively to the film that develops on ponds.
A.O Scott makes the claim that the dialogue between Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck is the lamest of any movie he has seen.
Apparently, these reviews are pretty much the consensus of everyone who has seen the movies. If you were going to see one, however, American Wedding is apparently an Oscar winner in comparison with Gigli.
Update: This Washington Post piece reports on the two positive reviews for Gigli that Sony could find for an ad. Also, I saw American Wedding, and it was trashy but funny, which makes it similar to the two American Pie films that preceeded it.

I don't know... I've seen a few advertisements for Grind, and it looks like it might give either film a run for their money, and send its viewers running for the door.

I just saw Bad Boyz II, and though it did not debut this weekend it is also pretty awful (though any movie which is basically car chases, explosions, and firefights can't be all bad).
