'The Love Guru': How bad is it?

Perhaps the most overrated aspect of reviewing movies is getting to trash the turkeys.

Sure, getting all vitriolic and sarcastic is fun at first, but you quickly grow tired of trying to find new ways to say the same thing: This is really bad.
That said, it still can be a kick to see the ways critics come up with to describe movie that’s getting almost universally ripped (a mere 14 percent positive rating on Rotten Tomatoes).
Ladies and gentlemen, “The Love Guru” reviews’ greatest hits:

“ ‘The Love Guru’ is downright antifunny, an experience that makes you wonder if you will ever laugh again.”—A.O. Scott, New York Times
“This film could have been written on toilet walls by callow adolescents.”—Roger Ebert, Chicago Sun-Times
“The movie with the most penis jokes in the history of Hollywood.”—Steven Rea, Philadelphia Inquirer
“Pitka, at heart, is one mean-spirited guru, very harsh with the dwarf jokes, and rather wearying screen company.”—Michael Phillips, Chicago Tribune
“The most joy-draining 88 minutes I’ve ever spent outside a hospital waiting room.”—Dana Stevens, Slate
" ‘The Love Guru’ is offensive to pretty much anyone with a brain.”—Stephanie Zacharek, Salon
“Ninety minutes pass like an eternity.”—Peter Travers, Rolling Stone
“The most-egregious case of ego run amok since John Travolta subjected the world to ‘Battlefield Earth.’”— Bill Goodykoontz, The Arizona Republic
"It's a rare film that makes a reviewer consider giving up the movies altogether. My own Waterloo came forty-five minutes into 'The Love Guru' when I briefly considered stabbing out my own eyes so that I wouldn't have to watch it any more.” — Joshua Starnes, ComingSoon.net
