    Guyver (1991) A young man discovers a mechanical device that merges with his own body, turning him into a cyborg superhero. When strange creatures start appearing, trying to take the device back, he begins to uncover a secret plot to genetically engineer terrifying monsters. Based on a Japanese comic book known as “Bio-Booster Armor Guyver”. Mighty Morphin’ costumes and cheesy shit… with crap 80s humor and comedic sound effects - i knew i’ve seen this dribble before. A cheesy sci-fi FAIL. What a tragedy. The quality was for UHF television… The “fights” were as bad as the acting, absolutely horrendous. Hey! it’s Luke Skywalker Mark Hamill - that’s about it. A mediocre film with no saving grace… wait the guyver costume was sorta true to the original comic. I would like to THANK MY COUSIN FOR GIVING ME THIS SHIT. Another one to add to the “avoid” list.  “The Guyver” = way to go America! it’s GUYVER. I was put off by the “comedy” elements… Tacky and lame.  This was fucking stupid.

    The Big Year (2011) Three avid bird watchers compete to spot the rarest birds in North America at a prestigious annual event. A movie about birdwatchers - HAHAHAHAHA! who comes up with this shit? Inspired by the Mark Obmascik book. Comedy greats Jack Black, Steve Martin and Owen Wilson battle it out to see who can spot the most number of birds. How interesting…  What’s there to say about something that pretty straight to the point? A geriatric following his dreams, a young sissy reaching for the stars and another douche who sacrifices love for the ultimate prize.  A not-so-funny comedy. This had potential… comedy giants playing it safe. I would say, this is a film for grandpa!

    A Very Harold And Kumar Christmas (2011) Six years after their Guantanamo Bay adventure, stoner buds Harold Lee and Kumar Patel cause a holiday fracas by inadvertently burning down Harold’s father-in-law’s prize Christmas tree. The dynamic pot duo is back!!! Kal Penn and John Cho bring the holiday cheers with the sexual madman Neil Patrick Harris. NPH! A holiday treat for fans of Harold & Kumar! Perverted pot smoking and ridiculous plot twists are no surprises to us. I pity the fools who don’t know who they are! Nice drops with the “White House” and “Sulu” jokes. These two have come a VERY long way since their first outing. Fuckin’ Wafflebot. I’m torn between liking and hating it. It’s a celebration of stupidity… and i like it! Didn’t quite like the (obvious) 3D bits. This was my least favorite H&K movie. Maybe it’s because i didn’t see it during Christmas. You shot Santa!

    What’s Your Number (2011) A woman looks back at the past twenty men she’s had relationships with in her life and wonders if one of them might be her one true love. A romantic comedy based on the novel “20 Times a Lady” by Karyn Bosnak. Anna Faris is back with some laughs and sexiness. It’s an adult relationship comedy with some “laughable” realities some of us have faced. Douchebags, bitches and those in-between.  OH, The men in her life! Joel McHale, Zachary Quinto and Chris Pratt play a few of the questionable male specimen douches in this flick. BUT Andy Samberg takes the cake! That “face”. Hilarious every time! Leading man Chris Evans brings his swagger and comedic stylings once again. The man is a comedian, no doubt about it. He can sell funny, even in a serious role. He looks friendly, and maybe that’s the hook. Pleasant, funny and light. Not bad for a film like many others. Predictable and yet entertaining. Moms and girls will like this, dunno about grandma…  It’s a dumb movie. This could have been a “fail” but the strong cast and clean flow helped this be an “ok” in my books. Anna Faris has always made me happy in my pants.

    The Innkeepers (2011) During the final days at the Yankee Pedlar Inn, two employees determined to reveal the hotel’s haunted past begin to experience disturbing events as old guests check in for a stay. I was EXCITED to see the new film by Ti West, i was pleasantly amused with The House of the Devil (2009) and thought this new flick was gonna trump the last. This anxious fan was dead wrong… Sara Paxton stars in this horror tale of spooks and kooks. She was “ok” in a weird way. A ghost in the inn, again. Goofy at times… I didn’t know if this was a comedy or not.  I GOT BORED. Seriously. It was paced terribly. Where they trying the suspense thriller angle? it didn’t work. It was like an old film i’ve seen too many times. Unsatisfying. They story was lame and the actors… questionable. Some good shots every now and then, accompanied by cheap thrills.  “Meh” this wasn’t for me…

    The Muppet Christmas Carol (1992) The Muppet characters tell their version of the classic tale of an old and bitter miser’s redemption on Christmas Eve. Heir to the throne Brian Henson pays homage to the Charles Dickens classic. Starring Mr. Michael Caine, as the greedy/money hungry old fart. Brilliant! And of course… the Muppets!!! The whole gang is back, in a way. Portraying characters from the classic tale. Giving it a comedic twist with lots of heart and wonders. TRIVIA: This was the first major Muppet project after the death of creator Jim Henson. Henson had performed Kermit and the role was now being handed down to Steve Whitmire. A classic to say the least. The Muppets have been a big part of my life and it was a pleasure to share this with my nephew over the holidays. It’s the season! In Loving Memory of Jim Henson.

    Jack and Jill (2011) Family guy Jack Sadelstein prepares for the annual event he dreads: the Thanksgiving visit of his twin sister, the needy and passive-aggressive Jill, who then refuses to leave. Adam Sandler, Adam Sandler, Adam Sandler… what the FUCK happened to you? From hero to zero. Have we not learned the lesson of “Hey let’s put a comedian in a fat suit and let them act annoying!” yet??? I decided to watch this, despite all the warnings… “How bad can it be?” right? So I dove in with low expectations… i was not prepared for this CRAP. Sandler dressed up as a woman = OLD. Let’s throw in that annoying shrieking voice he always does… Damn.Lord have mercy!!! Al Pacino as himself?!? And he fucking falls for fatty Mcannoying Jill?!? How FUCKING DARE YOU! Give me a fucking break - of that crack you guys are smoking. Immature, stupid, juvenile and tiresome… Avoid this movie at all costs. FUCK THIS.

    Salvation Boulevard (2011) Set in the world of mega-churches in which a former Deadhead-turned-born again-Christian finds himself on the run from fundamentalist members of his mega-church who will do anything to protect their larger-than-life pastor. A blessing of murder! Opening eyes of believers. We are merely human, and not far from sin - ain’t that right Mr. Pastor man? Hypocrite much?  Most of you would/should know i have a personal relationship with reality and science. Religious mockery is a gift i enjoy, god bless open-mindedness and poking at the “holy”. No one s better than the other. Greg Kinnear is the goofy and troubled man, who’s faith is about to be rocked by… Pastor Dan! Pierce Brosnan!!! This role was HIS, the douchebaggery was superb and that face - you just wanna smash against an ugly wall. The always brilliant Ed Harris drops his 2 cents in and suffers the consequences of being “real”. The ladies! Two of my crushes: “She’s secretly got the devil inside” Jennifer Connelly and cute “where’s my mind?” hippie Marisa Tomei. My eyes are always fixed whenever they appear on screen. My favorite part would be the Legend (1985) bit! “The Devil!” AHAHAHAHAHA! sweet. A dark comedy celebrating “There is only 1 truth, No one knows the truth.” - Being righteous is a doorway to hypocrisy. Justified arguments versus the facts of science and life. Cheesy and sloppy in delivery (childish at some points)… the message was clear though. This isn’t a cockslap to the face of the church - it’s a simple eye opener that man (no matter who he is) is vulnerable to selfish desires. Not necessarily Evil.

    Chillerama (2011) It’s the closing night at the last drive-in theater in America and Cecil B. Kaufman has planned the ultimate marathon of lost film prints to unleash upon his faithful cinephile patrons. Four films so rare that they have never been exhibited publicly on American soil until this very night! With titles like Wadzilla, I Was A Teenage Werebear, The Diary of Anne Frankenstein, and Zom-B-Movie, Chillerama not only celebrates the golden age of drive-in B horror shlock but also spans over four decades of cinema with something for every bad taste. 4 tales 1 movie, B to the bone! Horror like it was meant to be… funny. Sloppy and yet amusing enough for die hard horror fans. Wadzilla - Directed and starring Adam Rifkin. Monster sperm comes to town. A sick comedic twist on manly ammunition. I couldn’t stop laughing! It reminded me of Bad Biology (2008). I Was a Teenage Werebear - Hmmm… this was a bit weird. “wereBEAR” you know where i’m gettin’ at right? Not traditional… Most B-horrors of yesteryear’s were not as liberal. We’re used to big guns, babes with boobs and blood. The musical aspect of it was somewhat tiring and annoying. The Diary of Anne Frankenstien - A throwback to the black and white film era. Directed by Adam Green, of Frozen (2010) and the modern cult-ish slasher horror Hatchet (2006). Zom-B-Movie - Wraps everything up in a blueish goo popcorn finale! The drive-in is plagued by the living dead and our heroes battle to survive, the comedy and horror. Just like the 80s! Wadzilla & The Diary of Anne Frankenstein were the best ones! Overall it was a pleasant experience, i wanted more. Everything seemed “rushed” i enjoyed 50% of the content. Some of it was just lame and unnecessary. A good attempt in giving props to the films of the past, but they could do better. Funny? Some. Good? Some. Bad? Some.

    50/50 (2011) Inspired by a true story, a comedy centered on a 27-year-old guy who learns of his cancer diagnosis, and his subsequent struggle to beat the disease. Inspirational! You can do it, don’t die… live… live! Liiiiive! A funny take on life, death and love… nothing can get you through the bad times like a good friend. “I told you so!” I had mixed emotions that ran from sad to happy. This had it’s fine moments, that would make people think about their own lives. Joseph Gordon-Levitt is our poor old hero facing the ultimate adventure… death. The always cotton mouth, Seth Rogen plays his reliable wingman. And Anna Kendrick is the ray of sunshine. While Bryce Dallas Howard was the bitch. Rogen and JGL made an awesome pair of average joes/goofs. Behind the humor there was truth. TRIVIA: Joseph Gordon-Levitt actually shaved his head during filming. Gordon-Levitt and Seth Rogen were improvising in character while the cameras kept rolling since the scene was not in the script. This was definitely one of those 2011 surprises. Romantic in a way but focus was on the battle versus cancer. - a fight close to home. And this film showed the brighter side of… hope. Entertaining and based on the experience of the writer. It doesn’t get any personal than that. Love’s a bitch, and so is Life.

    Our Idiot Brother (2011) A comedy centered on an idealist who barges into the lives of his three sisters. WILLIE NELSOOOOON!!!! As the saying goes “Nice guys finish…” Naivety, honesty and good will towards - becomes the butt of the joke. Those damn filthy hippies! Paul Rudd plays “the dude” aka “ghandi” aka “my bro” in the Rudd way we all know and love. That stupid face, it amazes and amuses. The women… THE BABES! aka sisters Elizabeth Banks, Emily Mortimer, Zooey Deschanel and her main squeeze Rashida Jones = testes exploding!!! Cuties, lezzzbians and bitches surround our hapless hero. Let’s not forget the asshole, Steve Coogan. Who gives us a “peek” of his diamonds. The story was a bit shallow, but had current cultural/situational relevance. Guys ad gals will like this. Not a “HAHA!” comedy… a pleasant one. A film with good intentions morals and love for family. It’s got heart. Laughs for mature audiences. We are all evil and have to be reminded of the simpler things in life. Love to live and live to love.

    In Search of a Midnight Kiss (2007) Broke and alone on New Year’s Eve, Wilson just wants to spend the rest of a very bad year in bed. But, when his best friend convinces him to post a personal ad, he meets a woman bent on finding the right guy to be with at midnight. An indie film all about love! Great job by writer/director Alex Holdridge. A date movie that everyone can easily relate to. The loneliness of celebrating New Years alone. Shot in black and white (romantic atmosphere), we follow a couple who “agree” to be in each others arms. Sara Simmonds was crazy cute! We always remember those - don’t we gentlemen? And leading man Scoot McNairy carried the film quite well. Not the ideal pretty boy, but an honest man “in search of”. Hopes and dreams are displayed on screen with real emotion and honest storytelling. We are all looking for that “true love” in our lives. I was not at all disappointed with this modern “Love story”. Highs and lows come and go, we all survive the trials of relationships. And it is true that love can be found, with a bit of effort and understanding. Love’s a bitch, but she can be surprise you once in a while. Much like this little indie film. A beautiful film for hopeless romantics!

    Larry Crowne (2011) After losing his job, a middle-aged man reinvents himself by going back to college. Har har har! a comedy written, directed and starring Mr. Tom Hanks. As if the “starpower” wasn’t enough he got Julia Roberts to co-star in this oldman coming of age film. Typical and predictable from start to end. A few laughs and giggles care of: Cedric the Entertainer & Wilmer Valderrama. Without them, i would’ve rated this as a “fail”. Having said that… let’s talk about the film shall we? Guy goes back to school, sees hot teacher - who has problems. Hanks joins a scooter club (WTF?!?). Shit works out and we have a happy ending. My shortest review of 2011? possibly, cuz there ain’t much to say. Life and love isn’t that simple or convenient…  Old hipsters!

    The Change-Up (2011) A comedy in which a married father accidentally switches bodies with his best friend, leading to a series of wildly complex difficulties. Poop humor with sissies and douchebags!  One has babies, the other has babes. A feel good “try wearing my shoes” comedy, for the boys men. Business minded Jason Bateman & self gratifying Ryan Reynolds are the pals who get in over their heads “wishing” for change. When they get their wish… balls are shaved! A somewhat typical scenario we’ve seen in many films - usually where an adult and child switch places/age. The ladies… oh the ladies. Olivia Wilde gets hot and sexy, as the ravenous co-worker. And Leslie Mann “I’m starvin… let’s get some fuckin french toast!” is my dream wife. The ladies rocked it! BUT when i did some research… LIES!!! ALL LIES!!! F.U. Hollywood!!! -> TRIVIA: Most of the female nudity is not real. Computer-generated breasts were used for Leslie Mann and Olivia Wilde. An enjoyable comedy about responsibilities and reflection. We sometimes stray from the path we have chosen to try and see the “what ifs”. Let’s learn from each other. Careful where you pee.
