Clerks II

Did you know Jesus was a Jew?

Well Kevin Smith fans, here it is: the final (?) portion of the Jay and Silent Bob series, and the sequel to the ultimate cult classic low budget indie film. And, this one didn’t suck nearly as bad as Jersey Girl (or so I’m told, anyway, I haven’t had a chance to watch that one just yet) and in many ways is actually better than the original. Kevin Smith really hit a career high here, although I have to admit it was …

Talladega Nights: The Ballad of Ricky Bobby

Kick the tires and light the fires! It’s time for speed!

Oh dear sweet baby Jesus, we thank you for Will Ferrell, the nasty, sexy-hot sport of NASCAR, and Walker Texas Ranger (or T.R. as we like to call him). Please bless this review and thanks for making America the most kick-ass nation on the planet. Oh and due to contractual obligations during grace, I’d also like to pray for Powerade and a successful release of their new flavor. Amen.

…Yeah right, like our reviews have ever been …

Fun with Dick and Jane

We might be in a little bit of a pickle, Dick.

Ah, finally a movie with Jim Carrey where he doesn’t overact every scene. Not that I’m complaining, sometimes I really enjoy a good Jim Carrey irrelevant comedy, but there are other times that I really don’t. Fortunately, this movie is able to retain its comic value even with only one or two scenes of Jim’s usual interchangeable type of comedy. Directed by Dean Parisot and starring Jim Carrey, Tea Leoni, and Alec Baldwin, this movie is a …

Shrek

Delightful

Here’s a movie that I forgot to review a long time ago, and one that is certainly due for it’s additional fifteen minutes in the spotlight (as if this review could be considered the spotlight, right?) I can only review this movie on the basis that it is quite possibly the best animated movie of all time. Right up there with Emperor’s New Groove (review coming soon, my minions).* Shrek really dazzles the audience with original humor, excellent voice over and even very believable animation, right from the …

Cars

Pixar is at it again

Horsepower, speed, chrome, and skid marks. No, I’m not talking about King’s car, or his underwear for that matter. I’m talking about Pixar’s newest release, Cars. They packed the cast full of big name celebrities from the big screen, TV, radio, and several racing circuits. There are so many running Pixar jokes in this movie that I couldn’t even begin to count them all after only watching it once.

Plot

Have you seen Doc Hollywood? It’s fairly similar to that, but without all …

The Incredibles

Pixar just can’t make bad movies!

What? An animated flick? Who the hell do I think I am? wait…I think I’m a movie reviewer dude, and I think I know who I am. Right. Moving on. Here’s a bit of a break from the norm, with a review of the movie The Incredibles. A creation of Disney in conjunction with Pixar, this box office smash hit cartoon dealie was more than entertaining. It was just flat out fun. And anyone who has …

The Producers

A Mel Brooks written flick with singing and dancing? No way!

I’m sure you all remember seeing trailers for this flick, you know, the new Mel Brooks produced and written movie? With the singing and dancing? Yeah, that’s the one. It really bombed seriously hardcore in the box office. But you want to know the real shocker about this musical (and not just that I, a mechanic, actually watched a musical)? This movie was freakin’ great. It came out at the same time as some …

40 Year Old Virgin

Is it a comedy or a horror?

Since it’s nearing finals time for all you college students out there, I figured I’d help you out and give you a short exam for practice. Ready?

  1. How old is the main character in The 40 Year Old Virgin?
  2. What do you think the story revolves around in The 40 Year Old Virgin?

Did you get both of those right? I hope so because if you didn’t, then you are officially the dumbest person alive. The 40 Year Old Virgin centers around a 40 …
