Rowan Atkinson one of the funniest people alive really fell in my eyes after this movie. It feels that they handed him this script and said, now make this work (and be funny). Almost all the jokes and gags are seen a thousand times before, and in a movie that is a parody to James [...]

With a title like this I am sure that this is one of those movies that people either love or hate, but will check out, if for nothing else then for the reasons of curiosity. I’d like to start with a personal note that I am sick of movies about these rich, carefree, we’re-having-so-much-fun people. [...]

Here’s another atheist movie, and a good one too. Salvation Boulevard is based on a novel written by Larry Beinhart and directed by George Ratliff who also made Hell House an interesting documentary about our beloved christians. With a very good cast and Pierce Brosnan finally in something that is funny and good (who said: [...]

A movie about Internet pornography, count me in! And even better, it is a true story, at least to some extent… Despite the big “this is true” sticker at the beginning of the movie, at the closing credits they state that everything is a work of fiction, and the truth is somewhere between these two [...]

He may be a pedophile, but he makes damn good movies. Of course this time Roman Polanski is directing Yasmina Reza’s play “Le Dieu du carnage”, and during this relatively short flick you can sense that theatric vibe. Although people bitched about the actors I found them compelling and perfect for their roles. They were [...]

Continuing with the mildly entertaining movies, next  is Father of Invention. Although the poster and Kevin Spacey were promising, the movie turned out to be average but still watchable, arguably only because of the lead actor. Being a great fan of infomercials, I expected much more from this movie, maybe a more complex plot and [...]

After a couple a beers I decided to check out this new comedy, expecting Paul Rudd to be an incredibly annoying hippy that you wanna punch in the face repeatedly, possibly with an acoustic guitar. And whats up with him anyways, did you know that he is 42 years old, and he looks like he’s [...]

See No Evil, Hear No Evil and the title says it all, in this crazy and hilarious comedy. Possibly one of the best comedies of the eighties, this movie features Richard Pryor and Gene Wilder doing what they do best. Although at first glance it may seem that this is just a comedy without brains, [...]

I know, I know… As soon as you see the poster and the title of the movie you can guess that it is a dumb college comedy banking on nudity, penis and fart jokes with Carmen present to “spice” things up. And you are completely right, but sometimes you wanna see something dumb and filled [...]

I am not that much familiar with Ireland and their troubles, although I am sure, we all heard of IRA and their cause. Although this might seem as a movie that is directed towards that small portion of audience that totally understands the subject and can get all the small things that are present, it [...]

The Change-Up is another mainstream comedy with some rather zany elements that try to put it in that outrageous comedy genre. Yes, there are some great and totally unexpected scenes that are really funny but at its core this still remains a pretty PG comedy. Directed by David Dobkin (Wedding Crashers, Shanghai Knights) it uses [...]

Hey lets mix up bank robbery, romance, action, comedy and mystery in one movie! Sounds quite interesting, doesn’t it? But, in reality, this has to be done with great precision and perfect script with solid acting on top of all that, and in Flypaper we see how this mixture almost made it. First of all, [...]

When you’re talking about mainstream comedies, there is not much room for improvement and experiments. The studios need their money back and this usually results in light and PG-13 movies that you just watch and forget, and doing so you had relatively fun time and the studio got their money back. No one wonders what [...]

Alcoholism is always a good subject for a movie, and Everything Must Go, exploits this as its main theme. Luckily the mantra about how it’s a disease and all the other mainstream crap is quite subtle and you can hardly sense it, mostly by an almost exploitationist approach of the director and Will’s relaxed “acting”. [...]

Taking a bit different take with horror movies Tucker And Dale Vs Evil takes the classical premise of murderous hillbillies and spins it around. This could not have been done without great actors in lead roles and although I never liked Tyler Labine, but I must admit that he was really great. Of course, Alan [...]

Well, I do not exactly condone these types of movies, but due to the hate directed towards this movie by a lot of reviewers I must offer a different opinion. This is not some excellent movie that will be remembered forever and all the other crap, but just another mainstream comedy that managed to avoid [...]

I seem to like almost everything that is connected to Simon Pegg and when Nick Frost is also present that is truly awesome. This duet is behind some of my favourite (and I will not correct this anymore, fucking favorite, it is favourite) movies (Hot Fuzz, Shaun of the Dead) and Paul is the newest edition to [...]

You know that mixture of horror and comedy that worked so well in the eighties, well here is proof that you can still do the same thing after ten years… Featuring very interesting cast, with some really awesome actors like Brendan Gleeson, Oliver Platt and Betty White that carried the movie till the end. Creature [...]

With an imdb rating of 4.4 and 2000 votes, you would think that this is just another generic piece of shit. You would be wrong. I do not know what in the world possessed people to hate this movie, but it deserves at least a 5 or 6 (unless they were expecting a porno movie). [...]

You could say that Rango is just another animated movie for children, but you would be wrong if you say it isn`t for adults. Gore Verbinski (Pirates of the Caribbean, The Ring, The Mexican) showed that he is an amazing and very versatile director. They tried to explain how the world works and more importantly [...]
