Get Him to the Greek (2010) Review


Another Brand movie Huh?

Well I really love Apatows way of making comedies (Funny and a little serious)
But did I like this movie?
HELL YES
It was funny as hell, who knew P. diddy could act?
It starts kinda slow but 30 mins into it and you wont stop laughing
Both Brand and Jonah Hill (Superbad) have a bright future ahead of them, and hopefully Diddy will act more.

Good

  • Funny
  • P DIDDY
  • Great drama (Apatow signature)
  • Great songs
  • Great party movie

Bad

  • Starts slow
  • Very vulgar (Could be bad depending on who is viewing)
Verdict: Must see/rental

I really fucked it up this time




I think this is a very catchy and sad song, I'd rather this be popular than autotune garbage

Source code (2011) Review



I am a BIG Jake fan


Donnie Darko is one of my favorite movies, but as of late Jake has been in a slump (Love and other drugs =/)
So did this movie fix that?
Kinda

The movie seems like it was based on a Phillip K. dick novel, and while intimaly you think it will be a boring movie, about 20 minutes in things get going.
The acting is very good (Namely from Jake) and the action, direction, and cinematography are also very good. Also there is one scene in the movie that is absolutely gorgeous.

This movie was leading its way to a solid MUST SEE or a 9, but alas, Hollywood opted for a happy ending.

Verdict: Full price/Rental

Good

  • Thrilling
  • Action packed
  • Funny
  • Smart
  • Original (Somewhat)
  • Great character development 




Bad


  • Ending choice

Arthur (2011) Movie review


Lets go ahead and get this out of the way, I have not seen the original "Arthur" (Or its little known sequel)

With that said, "Arthur" was a fun, but not noteworthy film.
Everyone acted just fine, the movie looked good (Some scenes were gorgeous) but the script fell a little flat. The movie could have been more funny.

Mentioning funny, the movie got a bit serious and dramatic (One of my friends saying "I almost had man tears") It was a nice touch actually, I enjoy watching dramaedys.

                                                                            Overall the movie is a matinĂ©e or rental at best

Good

  • Funny
  • Silly
  • Nice Drama
  • Character development 

Bad
  • the script leaves a lot of room for laughs
  • Some characters could of been used a lot better
  • A little long
  • Ruined some dramatic moments for a cheap laugh

Movie Review: Your Highness (2011)





Let's start off by saying, Yes I enjoyed this movie.

"Your Highness" Is the new comedy from Cult actor Danny Mcbride (Eastbound and Down, Pineapple express) and James Franco (Spider-man, Pineapple Express)

The movie was made with no dialogue written, and sometimes it shows. But the longest you go without laughing is 5 minutes at most. The action is very good, and the movie is supringsly violent.

In all I'd say this is a matinĂ©e showing at best, not full price.

Good

Funny
  • Action packed
