We watched "Spy" last night and surprising he was one of the best parts (esp. the obvious mockery of his Transporter character) of an unexpectedly funny movie.
What movies are you watching?

Watched Entourage. Meh, it was like watching a really long episode of the series. It wasn't terrible, but not really memorable or needed. Whatever, it was ok, but I doubt it's a movie I'll ever revisit.

"Inside Out"
holy fuck. Best picture of last year by far. Maybe last several years. Pete Docter is a genius.

I didn't mind Inside Out, but I thought it was a bit overrated.
We just went to Zootopia. Enjoyable, but kinda ham handed at times. I love the hell out of Jason Bateman though.

Re: What movies are you watching?
The Brothers Grimsby was one of the most poorly made movies I've ever seen. On the other hand, Rock the Kasbah was a very pleasant surprise. It's a breath of fresh air to see a new movie by someone who understands pacing, editing, and structure. Although that doesn't say much for our current film culture.

Brothers Grimsby doesn't look good at all. The only marketing they do is "its funny because something happens that we can't show on TV but can show shocked audiences". Fucking stupid.

That's exactly what the movie is, too. And the "outrageous" scenes usually aren't even funny.E.H. Ruddock wrote:Brothers Grimsby doesn't look good at all. The only marketing they do is "its funny because something happens that we can't show on TV but can show shocked audiences". Fucking stupid.
