You Don't Mess With The Zohan

I don't understand why Adam Sandler bothers with these types of movies. This was one of the worst movies I have ever seen. Everyone who watched the Zohan is now dumber, myself included. A comedian with his capabilities should spend more time making a good one instead of taking any role at any time. Roxanne from Principal Takes A Holiday was the lone bright spot to the movie.

JJ's Rating 2.5/10

Role Models

Yet another Paul Rudd disappointment. He seems have a new movie every month and they are all disasters. This one was made even worse thanks to the likes of Sean William Scott and McLovin. The Superbad clown continues to annoy everyone who's not an idiot. I hated him in that and even more so in this. I can not even think of one bright spot in Role Models, so I will leave you with the rating.

Marley And Me

When a movie tries to get laughs out of a dog knocking things over, for the whole movie, you know it's not going to be very good. Owen Wilson's presence in the movie makes it watchable, but other than that, it was garbage. If anything, Marley and Me just angered me because what sane people would ever keep that dog for longer than a couple days. Marley ruined those people's lives for about ten years and they actually kept it. Over the past year, I kept hearing about how sad this movie was and how they were crying at the end, so I knew what was coming. Don't understand how this could have been remotely close to a tear-worthy movie. Keep in mind people, as Will Ferrell would say, it's an f'n dog.

The Rocker

Obviously went in with very low expectations with this one. The Office cast, while great in the show, fails to succeed in the movie business. Rainn Wilson was no Dwight in the Rocker, but wasn't as bad as I though he would be. The rest of the cast was filled with all-stars, Bradley Cooper, Will Arnett, and Jeff Garlin to name a few, which helped the movie go along. The no name-teenage band was decent also except for the fat one who was worthless. Overall, The Rocker wasn't too bad, but wasn't too great.

JJ's Rating 5/10

I Am Legend

Will Smith has put out some good ones recently with Pursuit of Happyness, Hancock, and Seven Pounds. He continues his success with I Am Legend. I was intrigued throughout the whole movie. I loved every scene where Smith was walking through New York City, through all the landmarks, and it was completely empty. The creepy mutated people kept me on the edge of my seat at times, but not enough to hinder the film. Bob Marley music playing throughout was also a nice touch. The rating could have even been higher, but the ending did not do it for me. I do not know why, but it was a little disappointing.

JJ's Rating 6.5/10

Pineapple Express

I don't know how many movies Seth Rogen has left in him before I'm sick of him. Seems that I like him less and less as time goes on. He peaked in You, Me, and Dupree as a supporting actor. But I enjoyed the rest of this cast in this one, especially Danny McBride and James Franco. Gary Cole is always a great addition to any movie as well. The movie was good, but did have some flaws. There was no need for the storyline of Rogen dating the high school girl, which was not funny or believable. I was leaning towards a 5.5 rating until the ending breakfast scene boosted it a bit. Great way to end the movie.

Made Of Honor

Patrick Dempsey was an interesting choice for this movie. With his personality and prior roles, he can not pull of the hot-shot bachelor who dates a different girl every night. It seemed a bit awkward for me throughout the movie. Looking past that, it was decent for a chick flick. Kadeem Hardison made an appearance, which shocked me since I haven't seen him since The 6th Man. The Scottish boyfriend really hindered the movie also with his obnoxiousness. It was hard to believe that Monaghan would ever consider marrying him. Too many ups and downs for me.

JJ's Rating 4/10

Over Her Dead Body

Paul Rudd continues his climb up the list of most annoying actors with this one. I'm not seeing what the public sees in this guy. Granted this movie wasn't supposed to be good, but it was even worse than I imagined. The storyline may have worked if it was a bit more serious. They had a chance for a chills like ending, but the mood of the movie did not allow for it. On the bright side for Rudd, he was not the worst in the movie. The other two leading ladies and Jason Biggs were even more annoying than him.

Awake

I wanted to mix up the genres a little bit, so decided to watch Awake. Went in with very low expectations, but enjoyed it quite a bit. Should have known it would be good considering Terrence Howard, Shooter McGavin, and Anakin Skywaker starred in this thriller. The twist towards the end was very unexpected and the end was heart-felt. The biggest problem was the fact that they showed some gross scenes of the surgery, but other than that, it was worth a watch.

JJ's Rating 6.5/10

Thursday Night Throwback: Harry And The Hendersons

The second throwback of the year was inspired by an episode of 30 Rock, where they referenced the movie throughout. It was hilarious in the show, and the movie itself did not disappoint. I love any work done by John Lithgow, so there was little chance for a flop. The "Bigfoot" they discover is nothing like you'd expect, in a good way. The only thing missing was the fact that the kids were a waste of space. Granted it is tough to find good kid actors, but they could have done better than that.

JJ's Rating 6/10

Baby Mama

I do not know why I even watched this one considering the two main characters are women. But Tina Fey's 30 Rock is gold, so thought this might have a chance. Unfortunately, nothing about this movie was very funny. They tried to bring on some male humor with Dax Shepard, but his attempt at comedy was a disgrace. You would think Fey could have gotten some SNL male members to try and make it a little better. After this movie, I realized not to bother watching a women casted comedy unless it is Miley, Selena, or Demi.

JJ's Rating 3/10

Bedtime Stories

Adam Sandler has been off and on with his movies for his whole career. It seems he takes any part offered to him without even thinking about the consequences. He produces gold with movies like Happy Gilmore and Mr. Deeds, but then comes out with absolute garbage such as Little Nicky. Although Bedtime Stories surpasses some of his work, it was too childish for Sandler's capabilities. He can pull of many different roles, as we saw in Reign Over Me, but this movie was a waste of his time. A nice storyline at times, but overall not up to par with past Sandler gems.

Nights In Rodanthe

Decided to watch this one because it was written by Nicholas Sparks, who wrote the classic The Notebook. It was overall a pretty good storyline with a sad ending which Sparks is known for, but Richard Gere did not do it for me. In fact, I have not enjoyed Gere in any role, so this movie was doomed from the start. Luckily, the emotional storyline hid some of his defects and made the film watchable. Hopefully, Sparks' next movie starring Miley Cyrus will be a bit better.

The Illusionist

Finally got around to watch the poor man's Prestige. Not comparing it to that movie, which is probably around a 9.5, it was pretty good. The main problem was that Edward Norton was not that likable. The ending was a very nice twist, but I thought they could have executed it a bit better. I wish they would have explained the magic tricks Norton was doing throughout the film, as The Prestige did. Because of this, I will always wonder about the ghost illusions. Overall, it was well worth my time to watch.

Thursday Night Throwback: The Usual Suspects

I've heard good things about this movie for a long time, so I decided to give it a watch. All I knew beforehand is that there is a surprise ending, which ultimately hindered the last scene. Knowing the case, it was fairly obvious who the killer was half way through the movie. The scene where the cop drops the coffee and discovers where all the killer's stories come from was one of the funniest scenes I've ever watched thanks to Leslie Nielson's Wrongfully Accused. Seeing the parody before the real thing made a serious, shocking moment more funny and amusing. Even with all the previous experiences, the movie was still enjoyable. The Usual Suspects was a good start to my Thursday Throwbacks.
