Gringo movie review: Mexican bland-off
Woefully undeveloped characters, a thin yet convoluted plot, and a lack of humor in the black comedy. This is what it looks like when a hastily scribbled first draft goes straight into production.
Horrible Bosses
Vacation movie review: stay home
All homophobic, xenophobic, scatological grossout, with some rape and pedophilia “jokes” for flavor. How did this happen?
Horrible Bosses 2 movie review: the terrible, horrible, no good, very bad sequel
It’s not funny, only its villains speak truth, and its putative heroes are now the horrible bosses… though the movie doesn’t seem to realize that.
The Incredible Burt Wonderstone (review)
I laughed so damn hard at these human Looney Tunes…
question of the day: Has Hollywood abandoned young men?
Transformers, Pirates of the Caribbean, Thor, Green Lantern, X-Men, Captain America, etc. This is what 2011 looks like at the movies. In what way can it be construed that young men are “endangered” at the box office?
question of the day: What’s the next “bad” or “horrible” high-concept comedy?
Unpleasant Sanitation Worker? Irritating Bus Driver? Terrible Therapist?
Horrible Bosses (trailer)
This could be good. I hope this is good. Jason Bateman might preredeem himself for The Change-Up with this…
