This movie really blew my mind since I was expecting it to be some lame attempt to make a parody out of the classic superhero movies. Instead, it turned out to be very thoughtful and complex comedy/drama about people, dreams and ideals. Arthur Poppington is a bit slow, this has prevented him to accomplish something [...]

Although it did receive good reviews, I think that this movie is still pretty average. Identical twins(both played by Edward Norton) have taken different paths in life. One is an esteemed professor and the other one is a hillbilly pothead. When he gets into trouble with the local drug dealer he will have to get his [...]
This is one of those classic nineties comedies, you have a entertaining odd couple that finds themselves in more trouble they can handle. Nick Beams life could not get any worse, he came home early from work one day and found out that his wife is cheating on him with his boss (I know it`s [...]
If you taught that Guy Ritchie made a very strange version of Sherlock Holmes, then you better think again. This little gem was long hidden from the public, but I think it`s about time to check it out. Holmes and Watson are played by two great names Michael Caine and Ben Kingsley and that creates [...]
Although this movie is labeled as a comedy, it shows a bit darker side of junkie life and it furthermore instills the belief that drugs are not that great. Dick uses morphine as a drug of choice. He works in a hospital, so that comes in handy with his addiction. But when his trigger-happy buddy from [...]
Now here`s a good movie for valentines day, well, at least I think its good. At first it seemed like another American stupid milking comedy that 70 million budget spent on actors and Satan knows what. But when I checked it out it proved rather refreshing. Very intelligent and profound it resonates with most of the [...]
You knew that this day would come, and it came. Huh, I did not see Avatar in 3d, or in a theater or under the influence of drugs, and I guess that influenced my review greatly. First of all I must separate two aspects of this movie, one is the special effects and the second [...]
Directed by famous (and now ultra popular Tim Burton) this movie is highly underrated. I guess everyone expecting something more in line of his classic movies, and not this type of parody. So before you check it out, you might wanna check out some of the hype sixties, seventies and even eighties cheesy movies of [...]
I expected more from this British dark humor comedy. I mean, the title of the movie is I Sell The Dead, and they threw in all bunch of funny stuff in it, like vampires, grave robbing and other interesting stuff, but somehow it was not as phenomenal as I expected. Do not get wrong, this [...]
As much as I like Ricky Gervais and his style of comedy I must admit that his directing skills are not that good. He has a good idea on how to make things work but as for the long run goes he tends to lose himself in overshot scenes that will likely bore the watcher. So, [...]
If you have not seen Peter Sellers yet this is your chance. He stars in this sixties craze flick and he has done it so masterfully that it is funny even today. Rowan Atkinson and his character Mr. Bean is the closest example of the type of humor that you can expect in this movie. Hrundi V. Bakshi [...]
This is a very cute movie, that does not take itself seriously. It has a little slow pace, but is perfect for those movie nights that you just want to relax and see some easygoing flick. Salman is a very clumsy guy, he can`t hold a job and afford rent. But when he comes to help his [...]
When you read the title of the movie you know it is going to be good. I mean this is not some marketing scheme, but it has an actual connection to the story. Before I start reviewing the movie a few notes on its authenticity. The events about the research of the paranormal and its [...]
As in his previous hit Thank You For Smoking, Jason Reitman deals with some strange occupational choices. This time the movie is about Ryan Bingham, who`s job is to fire people(excuse me, the proper term is let go). He spends most of his time flying from one company to another(hence the title of the movie) [...]
Coming to us from well known director Mike Judge (Office Space, Beavis and Butt-Head) this movie delivers, unlike the other reviews, I think that it is about as funny as Office Space(although I must admit that that movie had a certain vibe and captured something that a lot of people can identify with). Joel is [...]
If you are looking for some not too dumb relaxing comedy, you have found it. Of course, the target audience are Star Wars fans, but us others can enjoy this flick too. Although I found that too many clichés describing the fans were used, it is still cute to see them. Four childhood friends decide [...]
What a strange duo that works so well. Tim and Robin were really brilliant in this little gem. Robin plays the role of a distressed car salesman with a lot of trouble on his hands. And in the most inconvenient time a crazed gunman takes everybody hostage in his dealership. It is up to smooth [...]
Very strange and surreal flick, that somehow stayed under the radar all these years. It is funny, insightful and above all entertaining and enlightening. Very confused young man tries to oppose his father wishes that he goes to Oxford. An accidental run in with O.W.Grant(Oldman) that will grant him one wish. He takes the nonexistent [...]
When two inmates escape from prison they will accidentally wind up in a little town called Happy, Texas. There they will be accidentally mistaken for a gay couple that is supposed to participate in a town’s Little Miss Fresh Squeezed beauty pageant. I mean from the start this movie sounds funny, two convicts playing a gay couple [...]
This sophisticated odd comedy with a bit slow pace somehow slipped through the cracks of the movie world. It is not that famous although it is good enough. Peter McGowan is a nervous playwright who does not get so much recognition. Using his own experiences with children and annoying dogs he will try to finally [...]
