BEHIND!

I'm very far behind in reviews I was hoping to do. I'll get around to them all eventually, but for the time being it might be difficult to put them up. My old reviews got deleted so I might do re-reviews of Half Blood Prince and Daybreakers. More will come if I decide to write them.

The Other Guys

I picked a good day to see The Other Guys. I had a reunion with my best friends from middle school, we hung out had a fun time and decided to catch a film. Good atmosphere. I wasn't entirely sure what to expect from the movie as I didn't know all that much about it. What I left with though were some good laughs and overall a decent movie. The actors in this film were hilarious. It's only natural that you would expect this of Will Ferrell, but many other characters had their moments as well, for me Michael Keaton and Steve Coogan stood out in particular. The humor wasn't exactly cause for nonstop laughter. Instead it made use of many one-liners and recurring jokes throughout. Stunts and visual representation of the action in this film was surprisingly well done. I can't say the film had an overwhelming 'style' to it, but I did find parts like the drunken bar scene to be both entertaining and visually impressive. The story of the movie was also much more fulfilling than I would have expected. This is probably the case because of how the back stories of the main characters advanced the plot and inevitably the relationships. Overall this movie wasn't spectacular, but it was entertaining and funny. I would give The Other Guys a 7 out of 10.
