Dutch - The Worst Movie
The worst movie I have seen lately has to be Dutch. A less than heart warming movie about a misunderstood little rich kid and his mother's working class boyfriend traveling home for thanks giving dinner. They go on to a have a not so exciting adventure with a totally ridiculous story driving this train wreck. Not only is everything that happens in this story totally unbelievable. Each event gives you another reason to dislike one of the characters a little more. By the end of this movie I found myself not caring if these to made it home or died in the process.
In the beginning of the story the boy's mother and father have gotten a divorce. I was a messy affair leaving the mother at the mercy of the father. She has moved on and started dating a man named Dutch with a working class background. The boy, Henry, is away at boarding school awaiting his father's visit that will never happen. The mother desperate to be there for her son tries to convince him to come see her for the holiday. Henry refuses because he blames his mother for not making her marriage work. And this is were the whole thing falls apart. The mother, Mary, decides that she would really like for her son to come to her house. So she sends Dutch to go up and bring the boy to her. So off like a bounty hunter in the old west Dutch goes out to get his man. And our adventure begins.
Now right here is were I get a little confused. I just can't help to wonder why Dutch, a man this poor boy has never met, is going to pick him up. Its not like this school is an hour away it’s a couple a day's in the car together. And this might be ok under better conditions. But, considering that this child has a lot of anger towards his mother. You would think that this would be a good opportunity for them to talk. Not to mention the fact that Henry hasn't excepted his parents divorce and the last thing he is going to want to do is meet her new boyfriend, who is taking his father's place in Mary's life. His mother doesn't even consider coming with. Not that she is busy or any thing.

In the history of movies, there are great movies that come out. Then, filmmakers try to recreate the brilliance of that movie with a sequel, sometimes many sequels. All to make more money with something that is familiar to everyone. It very rarely works as well a second or third time around. Because the films usually completely dumb down the first movie 's premise and drop the important parts, in favor of something a lot simpler. In some cases, there are some exceptions; sometimes the sequel is better than the original. This is my list of the top ten great movies with bad sequels. I hope you enjoy reading this list.

For people in Japan, rice and fish are two primary dietary pillars. Served together as sushi, the traditional Japanese dish has long been a favored delicacy. The initial form of sushi was developed as a method to preserve fish through a rice fermentation process. After the salted fish was enfolded in fermented rice, it was stored for many months at a time to prevent spoilage. Once the elongated process had undergone, the rice was discarded while only the fish was devoured, dissimilar to modern ways of sushi consumption. In the course of the Edo period, vinegar was discovered to shorten the fermentation process and was used to displace lactic acid fermentation. Haya-zushi, or fast sushi, marked the beginning of a unique Japanese culture which allowed both rice and fish to be consumed simultaneously. The modern Japanese Haya-zushi popularly known today as “sushi,” is a convenience food invented by Hanaya Yohei, which gave way to the international popularity and development of the traditional Japanese dish. While the traditional Japanese dish has become prevalent in many countries, The United States has seen a widespread increase in popularity of sushi for a number of reasons, some of which include increased availability through Japanese expansion and development, nutritional values, and modernization.
