THE TOOTH FAIRY

Guy’s Fuuuuuuck...

Why is there still a demand for this type of movie? Just throw in a action star in the corniest piece of crap you can ever imagine. Who do I blame? I’m sorry to say that it has to be Arnold. He started of as being an action good. Then he decided to do “Twins” (which is good if you compare it to the action star comedies of today) and another bunch of crappier comedies.

Here “The Rock” plays a hockey player that calls himself the tooth fairy because he tackles the teeth out of his opponents. One night he decides to steel the money from under his girlfriends daughters pillow. Well, the tooth fairies find out and he has to be one for two weeks.

The only kinda good thing about this movie was Stephen Merchant. Not because he was funny here, just the fact that I know that he has the ability to be that made this film better. What da fuck did Seth MacFarlane do in this movie. It might have only been for a minute but I thought that this movie stood for everything that he hated.

Guy’s Rating: Fuck no!

Girl’s OL: How does that saying go... Fuck you, Dwayne.

SHALLOW HAL

Guy’s Review...

With a lack of new good comedies I guess we sat down to watch a bunch of older once. Before putting this movie in I had recently seen the Farrelly brother on the interview show “The Dialogue”. A show where producer Mike De Luca interviews successful writers in the industry. Here they talk about “Shallow Hal” and how the audience where surprised that they where able to show heart in their movie.

The Farrellys are mostly known for their gross out and slapstick type humor. Sure, there are a bunch of that here in this film but mostly it focuses on the story. The story is very simple, you need to look beyond the exterior of people. Hal (Jack Black) gets a “curse” laid upon him so he can only see the inner beauty of people.

There’s a question here. Hal can see everyones ugliness or beauty. Except for one guy, his best friend played by Jason Alexander. Is his friend a bad or good person? Well, we never get to find out. All we know is that he has a tail (true Farrelly humor).

Guy’s Rating: Funny but far from the best in the Farrelly collection.

Girl’s OL: This is a favorite of my parents... and I can’t understand why.

OLD SCHOOL

Guy’s Review...

It’s been a while since I saw this movie. When I saw it the first time I thought it was super hilarious. I guess I went back to it considering the director of this comedy Todd Phillips recently directed “The Hangover” which turned out to be the highest grossing R-rated comedy of all time.

Here in this movie we can really see that big things was gonna happen for Mr. Phillips. His comedy sticks out as something different and fresh. He uses comedians like Will Ferrell in a way that he has never been used before. This adds to the movie because it just feels different.

The whole high school comedy thing isn’t new at all but ant good writer can make it feel fresh if the jokes are there. Now this movie is a cult classic and will probably be around for some time. Frank the Tank is known all over and the scene where he streaks though town is probably one of the funniest ever.

Guy’s Rating: A must see comedy if you haven’t seen it yet.

Girl’s OL: This was over my tenth time watching Old School, and thinking back on the movie, I still can’t remember how it starts, or ends, or anything in between but Will Ferrell’s butt - why is that?

SE7EN

Guy’s Review...

First off, this is probably one of the most perfect scripts ever constructed. All the characters and locations are sculpted into perfection. As you are watching this film you’ll never find yourself bored and looking at your watch. Not even during the second or third viewing. Even then when you know the twist will you feel bored.

When people talk about Morgan Freeman they never bring this movie up as one of his best performances. This is clearly in his top three the same goes for the handsome Brad Pitt. The dynamic between these two actors is perfect.

David Fincher has had a hard time to rival this film in his later work (my opinion). The only on that comes close is “Fight Club”. Usually his films take a greenish color. Here however it feels yellow and dark. I love the way that he plays with color and darkness. This is one of his strongest visual sense. He as I have said about Luc Besson is a director that you can recognize by just looking at one of his frames.

Guy’s Rating: One of my favorite neo-noir films to date.

Girl’s OL: Hard to watch, but brilliant.

TENACIOUS D IN THE PICK OF DESTINY

Guy’s Review...

After seeing Tenacious D in “Bio-Dome” I decided that we should watch this little film again. The critics hated it but the tenacious boys talked about it with their heads held high. I think that this might be one of the funniest musicals to date. Yes! I said it. It’s not a hard category to win in. There’s like two out there, this and “Cannibal! the Musical”. I have the Tenacious D concert on DVD and it’s clear that they are great musicians and very good entertainers.

So this movie will give you a some great tunes, fart jokes and penis humor. I know that people have some problems with Jack Black but come on, he’s funny. There’s some great cameos here to. Both Tim Robbins and Ben Stiller are awesome as down and out rockers.

Guy’s Rating: Good music and good fun.

Girl’s OL: Uhm, Wonderboy was one of the first songs I ever played on repeat until the CD broke, so why wasn’t it in this movie!?

BIO-DOME

Girl’s OL: ... and then there was bio-dome, and God knew the world was complete.

Guy’s Review...

And then there was “Bio-Dome”. This is probably one of the funnier Weasel movies. Still, I can see how Mr. Shore wore out his welcome on the comedy scene. He plays the same character in every movie. I guess that he didn’t have the comedic range to develop something new. This makes me a little bit worried. There’s a bunch of actors that keep playing the same guy over and over again right now that I really enjoy watching. Michael Cera is one of those guys and he’s hilarious. This means that Hollywood will get bored with him too. Let’s hope not.

There’s a cool cameo in this movie as well. Tenacious D shows up and plays a 20 second song on the school campus in the movie. I think but I’m not sure that this might be their first movie appearance ever. And for that I thank the producers.

Guy’s Rating: The funniest in the Pauistory.

ENCINO MAN

Guy’s Review...

And so we watched “Adopted” with Pauly Shore and then the marathon of his old movies started. Girl is a big fan so she decided that we should watch this gem first. This movie is about when Samwise and The Weasel find Jungle George in the back of their property. Then Jungle George has to learn how to become a man whiles hooking Samwise up with a nice looking girl.

I have to say that the best part of this movie is Pauly’s wardrobe. The pink shirts and those weird jeans are hilarious (I’m thinking of getting a pair of my own).

Guy’s Rating: Fine! It’s a good comedy.

Girl’s OL: First there was Encino Man...
