Chris Rock: Selective Outrage (2023)
Welcome Back to Baltimore
Poignant. Funny. Not his best, but not his worst. A few times he claims he supports something, but then turns around & makes a negative joke about that topic. A handful of jokes drag out after the point has been made - too much mansplaining a few times - but that's nothing new with Chris Rock. Current events give him ALOT of ammunition, sometimes it felt like he was reaching for a laugh, however there's never too awkward a moment left hanging in the air. It was great to see live in Baltimore. The sold out audience welcomes him back with open arms. Welcome back to the stage, Chris - no slapping here but high fives.
The Room (2003)
Cult Following Leads To Success
Some movies require more than one watch to appreciate them. Much like this film. Hey, when Star Wars first started out, nobody knew what it was and didn't want to follow it. Mark Hamil, Harrison Ford, Carrie Fisher, George Lucas, and several other cast members could tell you that Star Wars was a dud in the first two films. It wasn't until more word got out, and better portions were made, that it was memorable. This film has a cult following. It is very memorable, very quotable, and not as bad as critics seem to suggest. Critics have one job - to criticize a film. Seriously, you should check it out. Give this one a chance, watch it at least once, very quotable and memorable for various reasons.
