The Comebacks (2007)
Disappointed
When I first saw the previews for this movie on TV I thought that this could be a funny movie. I was wrong. All though I am not totally against movies that make fun of others. Some are actually funny such as the first scary movie. This was one of many that have been made as of late that are not. The humor in this film was anything but funny and was rather dull.
I feel the one of the biggest problems is that they poked fun at to many movies such as Varsity Blues, Friday Night Lights, Stick it, etc. And if you are anything like me you try to pick out each movie instead of paying attention to whats going on in this one. Even the adult humor in this movie was dry. Do yourself a favor and save you money and time and rent don't rent this movie
Dan in Real Life (2007)
refreshing
I had no Idea what to think of this movie going into it. But to be honest with you I was rather impressed with this movie. In a day were it seems like most movies have to be full of big explosions or lots of violence to have a movie that contains neither. This movie was simple with no fancy cinematography.
The whole movie focuses on Dan who is a journalist and is also widowed with 3 daughters and goes to a family reunion and finds love in an unlikely place. And learns a lesson about relationships from his oldest daughter.
The scenery in the movie was relaxing with the view of the ocean in the back ground and the unity of family displayed in this movie. It was very nice to see Steve Carell play a more serious role and did it surprisingly well. This is a must see
Eight Legged Freaks (2002)
better than I thought
When I first saw the previews to this movie I was reluctant to see it. I thought it was just another dull comedy movie. Then when I was with a friend we rented it and saw it and I must say that this movie turned out to be funnier than I thought it would be. This movie is almost like a cross between Tremors and Gremlins with the way the spiders mutated and tried to invade the town, and of course you have the one guy believing it is government cover up. If you want a half way good laugh I would so check this movie out.
Changing Lanes (2002)
too boring
I saw this movie in the theater when it first game out and that will more than likely the last time that I see this movie. Although I like Jackson and Affleck as actors this movie was too slow moving for my taste. You can sum up the whole movie by saying, two people are in a rush to get somewhere, have a car accident, their property gets mixed up and then they chase each other around the city trying to even the score on each other and doing things like wiping out the ones credit report and the other one burning documents. This movie could have been re-done and could have been a better movie than it turned out to be.
