Ridley Scott's "The Counselor" came out in 2013 and the reviews were not kind. With a screenplay by Cormac McCarthy (not too long after his novel for "No Country For Old Men" became an Oscar winning Coen Brothers film), the bleak drug trade morality tale became a punchline from Cameron Diaz's car humping scene and a perceived sense of boredom. Is this movie the steaming...

For the 5th and final film in our first Tomei run, we present to you...OscarPeople sure did hate this when it came out. It's part of the one-two punch of this and "Stop!
