10 Ghastly Movie Kisses We Wish We Could Unsee

8. The Wackness

The Wackness is a coming-of-age film set in the €˜90s (which is the new 80s, apparently) starring Josh from Drake & Josh, one of the Olsen twins, and Ben Kingsley as a weed-smoking psychologist. Mr. Kingsley pals around with Josh, teaching him lessons about life while ignoring those same lessons himself. One of the big moments for him comes when he meets Union (Mary-Kate Olsen).

This, of course, leads to him slapping tongues with her, which is about as appealing as you can imagine a 64-year-old making out with one of the sweet, innocent kids from Full House would be. I€™m sure it was great for him and I imagine he pushed for lots of rehearsals and retakes, but that doesn€™t make it any more appealing for the viewers. Interestingly enough, he would make out with Penelope Cruz in Elegy later that same year, making me think that Sir Ben Kingsley has the best agent in the world.
