It’s never really a good sign when a studio doles out free drinks before a movie, but that was the case at a recent screening of the latest Jennifer Lopez vehicle, where the booze was, you’ll note, flowing. That I personally didn’t imbibe had less to do with journalistic ethics and more to do with the length of the line of those waiting. The lucky souls who did gulp cocktails at least had the advantage of liquid courage when facing the dopey spectacle ahead, though I strongly doubt I could’ve been intoxicated enough to mistake the sorry sight for a film and not some sort of prison experiment.
