This film is directed by Walt Becker (also did “Van Wilder” (2002)), and stars John Travolta, Martin Lawrence, William H. Macy, Tim Allen, Ray Liotta, and John C. McGinley.
A group of old friends who have all reached a point in their life where they’re all having to deal with the boredom of the world and completely overwhelmed by age and whatnot, decide to take a ride. A road trip on their bikes as their made-up gang “Wild Hogs”, to get away from it all and just be crazy for a week. As they ride through the country they encounter a few characters, a gay highway patrolman (John C. McGinley) who thinks the group of them are all gay friends having a fling, a real hardcore biker gang led by Jack (Ray Liotta), and others.
This movie is such crap. This is for those 10-13 year old children who haven’t mentally grown up and are able to understand why comedies like this suck. They take decent to good actors like William H. Macy, Ray Liotta, and John Travolta and make them be in crap movies where they have to play out predictable plot lines and horrible cliches. The comedy in it isn’t even that funny. At around the fifteen minute mark I almost decided to shut off the movie, but I continued because their hasnt been a good opportunity recently for me to appreciate the really good movies out there that I watch every other day. If you ever see this movie… it is only good for wiping the last remnants of crap from your ass cheeks after you’ve used the toilet.
Sorry for the late post.. meant to put it up on Sunday but a hurricane hit Jamaica, so I had no lights till today…. so enjoy
This film is directed by Steve Bendelack, and stars Rowan Atkinson, Willem Dafoe, Emma de Caunes, and Max Baldry.
Mr. Bean (Rowan Atkinson) has miraculously won a week’s vacation in Cannes, France, and he’s off. At the train station in France he has an encounter with a man and his son, and the two get separated (all the fault of Mr. Bean of course). Bean therefore feels it is his duty to reunite the two and they go on a hilarious adventure to get to Cannes with the boy, while being mistaken for abducting the child.
This movie is pretty hilarious, especially if you already like the Mr. Bean style of humour. When I first saw the trailer for this movie, I wondered to myself if Atkinson decided to do this due to love of the character, or lack of job opportunities. Bean, the first movie came out in 1997, since then he has done, Rat Race, Scooby – Doo, Johnny English, Love Actually, Keeping Mum, and then this (only counting films). And the only film in which he had a leading role was Johnny English which flopped, and was crap. So I just wonder, 10 years to get back to the Bean franchise. However, with all that said, I’m happy that he did this movie because I loved the Bean series and first movie, and even though this one seems like it tries a little hard it still is pretty hilarious. So go check it out.
This film is directed by Tom Shadyac (also did “Bruce Almighty” (2003)), and stars Steve Carell, Morgan Freeman, Lauren Graham, Wanda Sykes and John Goodman.
The movie follows the progression of the character Evan Baxter (Steve Carell) from the previous film. He has left Buffalo and ended his career as an anchorman, and has become the newly appointed congressman. However God (Morgan Freeman) has a slightly different path for him to follow at present. God comes calling and asks him to build an ark, just like the story of Noah. Evan tries his best to get away from this task because it seems to be crazy (as well as many other things). But as the days progress, more and more crazy things keep happening, and it just seems destined so he does it. He puts his political career, and his family, on hold to go and do this monumental task for God.
This movie took a huge crash at the box office earlier this summer, so I wasn’t expecting much, but I think Steve Carell is hilarious and I liked the first movie (“Bruce Almighty”), so I thought I should give it a chance. It was an okay movie, had its moments, tried to meld the Bible story into the modern day setting, and did it decently well. I liked Wanda Sykes character, she just seemed always ready to deliver the punch line whenever the opportunity presented itself. So another movie that might be okay to check out if you have time to spare and liked the other movie or even Carell’s style of comedy.
This movie is directed by David Silverman (also did “The Road to El Dorado (2000)), and stars all the stars of the regular Simpsons TV Show (can’t bother list it), with a few cameos, including Tom Hanks.
This movie is set in a regular day in Springfield. The Simpson family is as they always have been. The plot begins at church, the grandfather has a vision and it plans out the whole of the movie. Pollution levels of the local river have reached terribly high levels and Lisa gets the town to clean it up and disallow any further dumping waste into the river. However Homer has some garbage to get rid of and he of course does the easiest and dumbest thing, this is to dump it in the river. All hell breaks loose and the US government decides to seal the town off from the rest of the country, and remove them from all maps. Homer and his family is outcast by the rest of the town after it is discovered that it is all his fault, and this is where Homer is now posed with the choice of either moving on to something new and unknown in a new town, or saving his town from their newly found entrapment.
This movie is pretty funny, it has all the Simpson’s style comedy, so anyone who is a fan of the cartoon will like this movie. The animation has been beefed up for the film, same style of art but it was glossed over a bit more and drawn cleaner. I loved the scene where Homer had the epiphany, and the Spider Pig thing was pretty funny… … “Spider-Pig, Spider-Pig. / Does whatever a Spider-Pig does. / Can he swing / from a web? / No he *can’t*, / cause he’s a pig. / Look out! / He is the Spider-Pig!”…. funny. So if you liked this show from before, or you like dumb comedies you will enjoy this movie, not worth the movie ticket i think, but worth a 90 minute waste.
