I Watched Way Too Many Movies This Week

Let me start off with the movie Final Destination...SUCKED!!! My god how did this movie spawn 2 sequels? Oh yeah it's because people don't like to think when they go to the movies. They just want to spend there $10.00's, sit there and think there smart because they get a movie like this. The movie involves a kid that has a premonition that the plane he's going to board will crash. He freaks out when he gets on the plane and he and a few other students get thrown off. I don't want to tell you how the other students get thrown off, they just do. When the plane takes of it indeed explodes. You see they were supposed to die, and because they didn't it causes a ripple in Death's plan and now he's out to get them. Dun Dunn Dunnnnn. You know a movie is dumb when someone actually figures out that death is after them. Wait that's not the dumb part!!! The dumb part is the fact they think they can out smart death. Wait that's not the dumb part!!! The dumb part is there’s an old wise gravedigger who knows the answers to which they seek. "See you soon" he says to the kids after they pay him a visit. Uh what's worse then this movie? Oh I know...

Final Destination 2....This movie SUCKED!!! SUCKED ASS!!! So another kid has a premonition. Saves a group of people. Same Town by the way. Now Death is after them. How do they fight Death? Why they get the one survivor from the last movie to come on down and help them. The goal is to cheat death, more blood and gore yadda yadda yadda and BORE. Oh but that cool scary wise old gravedigger makes an appearance. Phew, we needed him to come back because he knows all. All I'm going to say is that I honestly can't wait for Final Destination 3 to come out on Tuesday. I'm hoping to watch it in a group because I believe there will be laughs galore. Mike if you're reading this you need to watch Final Destination, because part 2 will be mocked on Mockworthy.

I saw My Super Ex- Girlfriend Friday. It's hard for me to review this movie because I liked it, but I don't know if anyone else will. I feel the movie didn't know what it wanted to be. It's cuts from scene to scene felt like something out of "Something’s Gotta Give" or "As Good As It Gets". It's love story in the beginning was kind of Chick Flick and it also had Rain Wilson from "The Office" playing a chauvinistic pig telling jokes I know I loved but I don't know if the "Something’s Gotta Give" Crowd would enjoy. The movie took about a half hour to really get started and when it did I liked what I saw. It was those first 30 minutes that was giving me trouble. I couldn't figure out what the movie was doing and if I liked it.

Saturday I saw Clerks 2. This movie was incredible. It had my kind of raunchy jokes mixed with surprisingly convincing acting and decent drama. The first Clerks you could tell weren’t memorized. It felt as if the actors had the script lying in front of them and they were just reading. This movie was very professional in comparison. Not only professional but just flat out good. If you do like raunchy humor (or if you hang out with me and are able to withstand my sense of humor) then you'll love Clerks 2.

Last but not least, I saw "Stuart Saves His Family". It's based on the SNL short "Daily Affirmation with Stuart Smalley" created and played by Al Franken. It's a character I never really liked but I've only heard good things from this movie since it came out 10 years ago. So I finally broke down and rented it. It was one of the best movie decisions I've ever made. This movie was a comedy, but it also had drama and the drama was very real to life. I couldn't believe how well done this movie was executed. I would also like to say that Al Franken, who I've seen act in a TV show and it wasn't very good, is perfect in this movie. He played a very cute sad character that you only wanted to see happy but instead we saw him struggle to find happiness. I don't want to say too much because I think too much could give away what is the heart and soul of this movie. I was extremley surprised and happy with the feeling this movie left me. I will just say, Trust me, Rent this movie.
