Richard's Recent Reviews

The Rocker The Rocker PG-13 3.5 Stars
Decent tale of a wronged drummer finally getting his karma hit back. The whole rise to fame thing was a bit OTT and the resolve at the end was kinda funny, if a bit hokey. There's some nice comedy moments, especially as FIsh finally gets his righteous place on the tour machine and wants to live it for what it's worth while his band just want to play XBox and sleep.
Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen PG-13 2.5 Stars
Leave your brain at the door.

Featuring rather confusing battle scenes you just have to go with, a plot that involved the destruction of the earth (would anything else suffice) and an American army that STILL thinks bullets will harm a Transformer, when the Transformers can't seem to harm each other.

There's touching moments, funny moments, but no real smart moments, but then again this type of film is all about the action, the transformations and the explosions.
Fuck (F*ck) Fuck (F*ck) Unrated 3.5 Stars
Interesting insight into this most explosive words.

Makes you question - from a liberal point of view - why we don't say it all the time in every situation.

The conservatives were hilarious in their "don't use the word cuz it's wrong" blindness. This, coupled with the old "you're going to hell for cussing" idiocy.

The best quote comes from Pat Boone who chooses to use "BOOONE!" as his expletive of choice, to which Ice-T replies, "I'm going home to Boone the hell out of my wife tonight!"

Billy Connelly, as usual, is the standout in a star studded line up of talking heads.

Megan Ward and Jeremy Piven make this University tale quite watchable. Very much in the vein of Animal House or Revenge of the Nerds, it's a highly watchable update.
Kicking and Screaming 3. Kicking and Screaming R 5.0 Stars
Just a terrific coming of age comedy with just the right mix of humour and melancholy. Noah Baumbach has created a timeless classic here... especially with Elliot Gould as Grover's father.
Donnie Darko 4. Donnie Darko R 5.0 Stars
Just love this film. Takes a few viewings to figure it out (especially the director's cut, that helps a lot!).
Hot Fuzz 6. Hot Fuzz R 5.0 Stars
Roll all your buddy cop movies into one, move it to a sleepy town where nothing happens and you have Hot Fuzz. Crocket and Tubby are awesome.
