#7 – Nebraska

A black and white family comedy that hits home for me seeing how my whole family is from the state and I have such vivid memories of being there and growing up.  This movie boasts standout performances, one after another.  Bruce Dern and June Squibb really steal this film but Will Forte holds it all…

#13 – In A World

Lake Bell fronts a well written comedy about the world of voice overs.  There’s so much to like here, just overall a solid picture.  Ken Marino continues to be one of the best kept comedy secrets in Hollywood and everyone benefits from a tightly written script. Recommend? Absolutely, a good choice for a comedy movie…

#90 – Trailer Park Boys Season 9

Another entry in the hilarious Trailer Park Boys series.  I loved being back at Sunnyvale Trailer Park with Julian, Ricky and Bubbles and the rest of the cast of characters who are all back.  I didn’t think it was as funny as some of the previous seasons and a few of the characters felt forgotten…

#41 – Dead Snow: Red vs Dead

The sequel to the awesomely fun Dead Snow that proved that Nazi zombies can be outrageous comedic horror.  This movie is just bonkers with all of the set pieces and story elements taken to a whole new level.  You have to know going in that this movie doesn’t care about narrative, this is over the…

#86 – Mr Peabody & Sherman

A pretty charming, animated family film with an alright story.  Exposition is never something that goes well in a kids movie and the story is just interesting enough to keep you interested.  The voice acting is well done but I just couldn’t find a way into the story to really hook me. Recommend? I know…

#15 – Frank

Movies like this are why I started this project in the first place.  Frank is an examination of life and what makes us all different.  A movie so original and odd that I doubt it will be on many radars but deserves an audience.  A film about music and the creative process at his core,…

#60 – The Trip #61 – The Trip To Italy

Two loosely plotted road trip movies with scenes that sometimes run too long and at times feature grating impression riffs but I found both of them to be charming and fun.  I think I liked The Trip To Italy a tad more but Steve Coogan and Rob Brydon are good in both and they’re both…

#24 – The Interview

Despite all of the buzz and the controversy the best part of this movie was when it was over.  I chuckled a few times but other than that I couldn’t stand James Franco’s overacting and Seth Rogen was just alright.  Ludicrous and silly but annoyingly so. Recommend? Go watch Pineapple Express, it’s a better movie…

#102 – Swearnet: The Movie

Man this movie is bad.  Basically The Trailer Park Boys play themselves and swear almost every other word.  There’s a plot that somehow involves a car race and some shady loan sharks but let’s not kid ourselves, none of that even matters when the guys are calling each other names, puking on things and shoving…

#77 – Aziz Ansari: Live At MSG

This felt more like a spoken word appearance than a stand up comedy special.  Smart and self aware but I’ve enjoyed his other comedy specials more and thought they were more funny.  I’m still a big fan of Aziz Ansari and really think his takes and voice are one of the best around. Recommend? I’ll…
