The Best Fuckin Movie EVER!
Yea, I said it. And yea, I cussed. So what? It's 2:30 a.m. and I just got back from an early screening of Grindhouse. THIS IS BY FAR THE BEST FUCKING MOVIE I EVER SEEN!!!!
I mean, I already expected this film to be "da shiznit". After all Quentin Tarantino and Robert Rodriguez's cinemanerdiness is all over this film. I refuse to break down the plot to these films because you just have to go see it. This ain't no movie review...this is a get up off your ass and go see this fuckin movie DEMAND.
Ok, I'll stop cussin and keep it cool, cuz H.P. Mchatey already did that for us earlier. However, I want you to know one thing, if you don't like blood, guts, kick ass fight scenes, gratuitous violence,sexy love montages, obligatory nudity, car chases, redneck one-liners, bad acting, jump cuts, lesbian love, overdone makeup, big hair, big asses, men's balls, turkeys, movie trailers, and missing reels footage---then I'm guessin you probably won't like this movie.
So the movie opens today....yes today is now Friday and you all need to RUN to go see it. Not walk RUN. It was so funny, becuz in the theater the usher told us to go upstairs to theater 4 to see it and I SWEAR people were running to see this flick! I've never seen so many grown ass men and women running to see a movie. So don't get left behind...see what's goin on over at the Grindhouse.
Hype/Hate for April 5, 2007
-------------------------------All A Dis! ---------by H.P. McHatey
Heeeeeeeeeeeeeeeey!!!!!!!!! It’s your favorite child movie reviewer, McHatey! Bringing you the finest and intriguing opinion of the world’s most renowned five year old movie critic! I know I have been gone for a while, but it’s only because I have been really, really, lazy, and video games are more important than this. Just kidding, but not really. Any who, its time for the most famous mentally challenged five year old art house aficionado to blow your minds and not anything else with my thoughts on………
Breach- Granted Ryan Philippe is kind of a Streisand (thank you Mr. Rudd), but he was ok. I don’t know why he’s taking these roles now instead of being another WASPy jerk blowing his sister, but unfortunately he still sounds like he’s twelve. The man of the hour in this film is the dude from American Beauty. Now I know I was really a cry baby when I was 18 and loved American Beauty, but it’s kinda lame now when I watch it. I guess because I’m not a big wuss anymore. Anyway, that dude is really good in it. He plays this bad ass dude but he’s not really bad ass. He’s actually a big dork like me who gave away secrets to the Russians. COOL!!! Ryan Pilipino needs to chill with the tough guy roles though, he’s got a vagina. Just kidding women!!!
HYPE IT BUT FUCK RYAN PHILLIPE FOR BEING A TOOL!!
300- This movie was pretty bad ass, but it was like watching a damn video game. I was watching these damn fight scenes, but all I wanted to do was play the damn thing. It didn’t help that I watched it in an IMAX cuz the whole time I was like “OK this is cool, but why am I not thinking this is really cool?” The fact is that I grew up and don’t think that slow motion decapitations are as exciting anymore. I mean I laughed at the ridiculous fight scenes cuz who really doesn’t mind seeing a giant elephant plummeting 300 feet smacking with a huge- ass thud! Overall I’m all about it, but I think my 5 year old brain needs a little more intellectual stimulation in the end. Madness? I know this is Sparta, but give me something!
HYPE IT, BUT IT’S BEEN HYPED ENOUGH. CAN’T WAIT FOR PART II THOUGH!!!
Trust the Man – David Duchovny is the dude from the X-Files. Julianne Moore is from a lot of movies. Billy Crudup is the dude from some movies too. Maggie Gyllenhaal is that annoying mousy bitch that keeps showing up in movies but every time I see her, I wanna smack those annoying lips out of her mouth. You would think this is a disaster of movie, but it wasn’t really that bad. They’re all charming and even that annoying dumb ass whose brother is way cooler is ok. But really it all revolves around the other three. Every time I saw Maggie’s dumb ass talk, I was hoping Billy Crudup would just leave her ass. It is however a lovely story of love that I fell in love with. I don’t love Maggie.
HYPE THIS CORNY ASS LOVE STORY WITH THAT CORNY ASS BITCH WHO’S MARRIED TO THAT SKARSGARD DUDE.
Hollywood Land – I normally like Ben Affleck. I don’t know why people hate on his ass so much. If he’s in a decent movie, he won’t fuck it up, and that’s what makes a marginally good actor. In this movie he kinda stepped it up a notch. When he was scared you believed he was scared. When he was some dude that shot himself (maybe shot himself?) sometimes you think Ben thinks about blowing his brains out. That chick from The Craft is in too, not that annoying one with busted lip, but the cute one, and the dude from The Pianist is in it too and he was ok but a little too whiny. Anyway, this movie was mad slow and made me really sleepy and in the end I was bored.
SHIT ON IT BARELY, ONLY BECAUSE IT’S A REALLY SLOW ASS MOVIE!!!
Bridge to Terabithia - Granted I like supposedly “kids” movies, I am of course really slow and have the attention span of an infant, so this movie was pretty alright. It had things that made you feel all lame and imagine shit, and I like that kind of shit. It had a really sad story with adorable kids being all adorable an’ shit. Overall this shit was mad cute. If you have a kid or if your slow ass boyfriend or girlfriend needs something to take the time away from writing shitty reviews about dumb ass movies, you should go see it. Maybe you’ll come out a little bit wussier. HYPE THIS KID SHIT!!!
Babel – This movie was aight, but it definitely was not as good as Amores Perros. That movie was BAD ASS Mexican film making. This one is kinda lame cuz it’s really, really slow. But it is really nice to watch and mad sad, but the repercussions of these dumb ass characters were not fully realized in my opinion. The writers should have done more to let you know what was really up with my man Brad Pitt or my dude from that Motorcycle Diaries shit. It was long, but you don’t really know much shit in the end. If I watch a long ass movie, I need to know more my Mexican director dude. But it was still aight.
HYPE IT BUT THIS MOVIE IS A LONG ASS MOVIE THAT DOESN’T TELL YOU MUCH!!
Well my little brain is bored and tired, but hopefully I’ll be back to give you movie reviews more annoying to read than Maggie Gyllenhaal’s Plaster Face. Good bye y’all and remember don’t hype it unless it’s really, really good. I am also a really big hypocrite.

Early Review: Disturbia
Early Review!!!!! Disturbia the new suspense thriller from director D.J. Caruso (Salton Sea) focuses on the life of a troubled teen Kale (Shia LeBeouf) after the tragic death of his father. One year after the event he is still deeply affected by his loss. One day without much provocation he attacks his Spanish teacher. This action then leads to his house arrest and Kale has a special house arrest tracker placed on his ankle. Bored with the 3 months he is to remain under house arrest Kale then starts to entertain himself by spying on his neighbors including his hot new neighbor Ashley (Sarah Roemer).
He then becomes aware of his neighbors everyday routine. But he starts to notice that something about neighbor Turner(David Morse) isn't right. Kale thinks Turner is a killer when one night he thinks he sees Turner attack a young woman. Or does he? His best friend Ronnie (Aaron Yoo) and Ashley start to help out with his stakeout and watch Turner. However, things take a turn when Kales mom (Carrie-Anne Moss) becomes taken with Turner and Kale finds that he must prove his neighbor is a killer before something happens to his mother or him. But its kind of hard to convince people, when everyone thinks you're a basketcase, troublemaker kid going stir-crazy.
To me this film was pretty good but not spectacular. It was a lot like watching a WB version of Hitchcock's Rear Window. You can always judge for yourself. The film opens nationwide April 13th.

Indie Pick O' The Day: The Commitments
Well not quite, they're Irish. The Commitments centers around a soul group in Ireland trying to make it big. Yup a soul band. In IRELAND! The group starts out as the brainchild of its manager Jimmy Rabbitte to bring soul music to Ireland. To him soul music is the expression of raw sex, sensuality, and freedom. The blacks in America expressed themselves that way when being oppressed during Civil rights. He felt as young Dubliners this was the best way to express themselves and do something different than what everyone else was trying to do.
He gathers a gaggle of young musicians and singers plus a seasoned "veteran" Joey "The Lips" Fagan a trumpet player who claims to have worked with soul great Wilson Pickett, Otis Redding, and Sam Cooke just to name a few. They have a rocky start learning to play together as a band, getting venues to play at, and seeking an audience, but then get a strong local following.
When they start to have some sort of small success, they start to have internal problems in the band. The lead singer Deco's ego starts to balloon out of control. The girls who are the back up singers start to fight because they discover they are all sleeping with Joey. Jimmy gets angry at the sax player Dean as he becomes more engrossed in Jazz. So the band doesn't have a storybook ending, but that is what makes the movie that much more believable and poetic. Plus the movie has some great music. Just watch!!

Indie pick 'O' the day: Beautiful Thing
This adorable tale of two english boys coming of age, discovering themselves and finding Love, has been dubbed on of the best gay films of our time.With heartfelt performances by appealing cast members Glen Berry and Scott Neal who play the two smitten teenage boys , and a delicate blend of the romance and the heavier aspects in the movie, it is no wonder. 
Directed by Hettie MacDonald , this 1996 film manages to capture all of the innocence and confusion of adolescense and the love story never winds up coming off as "tragic" the way most "coming-out" stories tend to.
refreshing Moving and at times funny, Beautiful Thing is a welcome treat, that will leave at least a slight warm hearted smirk on that icy tightly wound face of yours.
