I have to agree with Trav Horton hears a who was superb. The story was fun because it was Dr Zuess; the animation was amazingly good; and the voices couldnt have been better. I pretty much loved everything about it. 4.5 Beans

I wanted to see that, but after seeing the trailer, it looked really shitty so I never bothered. But Trav you gave it five beans. You also gave five beans to Bee Movie, which I also thought looked shit from the trailer, but ended up quite enjoying. So maybe I should go see it....

I must admit, I thought it was pretty good. Had me smiling and giggling.

I won a family pass to go see it a week or so ago.
We went with another couple to go see it, mainly thinking 'oh well, it's a free move, what the hey!' but I thoroughly enjoyed it.

The Happening

From the VERY first scene, and the very first line of dialogue spoken I rolled my eyes and predicted it was going to be a shit film. and boy was THAT an understatement! Poor acting (even for Marky Mark!), poor plot, poor cinematography all round! Most parts which were supposed to be 'scary' or 'gruesome' made me giggle like a school girl and the whole in general just stank. Reminiscent of the time we went and saw Jeepers Creepers 2..

I give it 0/5 beans

I'd give it 1/5 beans just for the tractor scene! and yeah the construction site seen was cool too. but yeah terrible movie, the whole time i was waiting for M. Night's traditional last minute plot twist turning it into an awesome movie.. but it never happened. The only thing that flick had goin for it was some of the creative suicides. shit movie.

I think the funniest/scariest bit in the movie was when they met that old lady!

I give it 1/5 beans for those scenes with the old lady, and those scenes only.

I was watching the Movie Show last night on SBS. David and Margaret both used the word "underwhelming" (Margaret first, then David added "very") and they both agreed that it never really went anywhere. Disappointingly though, they both gave it two and a half stars.

As requested by Bean, Adam and I will now give our view on Adam Sandler's latest movie "Dont Mess with the Zohan!" As you may or may not be aware I am a huge Adam fan But i regret to inform you that this movie is not his finest work at all. I wont lie it has its funny moments ( as expected) but
I liked:

* Seeing the usuals like Rob Schneider and the fat dude from Meet chuck and larry, its good to see that they all stick together!
* The funny terms he used for the sexual act eg. he refered to sex as Sticky sticky!
*I personally thought his one and only nude scene was quite cute ( hehe he has a nice butt!)
* Some of the gags were quite funny just every now and then punch lines.

What I didnt like:

*I think the trailer for the movie is very misleading the plotline was poor!
*Rob Schneiders role wasnt as good as he couldve been I know he wasnt the star but in previous movies he has been a hilarious cameo this time around not so impressive!
*The implication of Old lady sex with the Zohan wasnt the best thought in my head as i was eating!
*The continual use of Mariah Carey, whether it be on his shirts he was wearing or background music and then to find her randomly singing at this game they were all at, it was hideous! especially because Mariah cant act and made no attempt at it though she fell beautifully into the role of a diva! It was a poor effort Mariah!

I didnt really enjoy the movie as much as Big Daddy, Billy Madison or even my favourite Happy Gilmore.. this movie certainly wasn't a hole in one! - but you can sit through it and have a good chuckle though the poor plot line really sunk it for me.

2/5 beans

Adams turn....

I pretty much agree with everything Bobbi had to say about it.. There was a few good cameos as always, even Chris Rock to my surprise! And I did enjoy an integral role played by
John Turturro (Jesus from the Big Lebowski, or more commonly the 'very very sneaky' servant from Deeds) - he always manages to have a funny accent in all his movies!

Though it wasn't the funniest movie I've seen for a while, it still had a few good laughs.. But definately not a movie I'd see at the movies twice - sorry George

I give it 3/5 beans

...I think the trailer for the movie was perfect because it makes the plotline look VERY poor!! Don't tell me you thought it looked good from that?? [gulp]

HANCOCK

As you probably know, I didn't have much anticipation heading into this, but I was happy to know that no matter how bad it was - surely it couldn't be worse than The Crappening. Thankfully, it wasn't.

It was better than I thought it was gonna be (I was expecting a run of the mill superhero movie) but I'm not huge on action movies (fight scenes are pretty boring) so for most of that part I was a bit 'eh' toward it.

But it did have a pretty different take on the whole thing and a few good laughs ("Good job" was pretty funny) but overall I thought it was pretty average.

3 beans.

Do you realise that At The Movies with David and Margret moved to the ABC about 5 years ago?

The Love Guru:
I only went to see this because i'm a big fan of Austin Powers. I have to say i was very disapointed, bad jokes that almost raise a giggle every now and then and an even worse plot line. JT is the only funny person in this movie.

1.5/5 Beans - 1 for JT and .5 for Jessica Alba

GET SMART!

Walking into the cinema's this sunday just gone I feared that adam and i had just wasted like 14 bucks or something on what could possibly be a stupid movie. The original "Get Smart" is just an all time classic. With such high expections of this big screen remake I feared Steve Carrell and Anne Hatheway had massive shoes to fill and this secret mission was going to be impossible.

Theres no denying that the orginal characters did a far more impressive job, but I found this movie to be quite good and not as bad as i had first expected. Steve Carrel is pretty funny and through out this movie you get quite a good chuckle.

What i liked!

*Steve Carrels good one liners
* pretty awesome stunts a fair bit of action
* Anne Hatheways girl power lol
* The Rock! for eye candy purposes!
*The story line was funny
* The typical "Sorry Boss" one liner

What I didnt like

* The story line wasnt too great but passable
* Didnt really refer to the orginal
* the agent that always hides in objects like trees and stuff he only had one scene as well as himees or whatever his name is he's the robot.

Overall i thought it was a good movie and worth the money, but i dont think it will be something you'd pay to watch again. I guess thats exactly what happens when people do remakes of awesome tv shows the orginal will always be the best for me.

Long live the orginal Maxwell Smart.

For those of u who dont like my review:

Sorry Boss!

Well aren't we the funny oen Teagan??

A while ago during daytime TV (so I guess it was probably over the summer holidays) they had an ad for the Get Smart series being put out onto DVD but it was ONLY available through that shitty company who advertise them on daytime TV where you pay $19.95 for the first disc, but get a free disc if you order within an hour, and credit card orders get a third free disc. And then every month you get anohter disc for $29.95 or whatever. And it had like two episodes per disc. WHAT A CROCK!!!

But I guess thanks to the movie it is out as normal box sets which is pretty exciting. Now we just have to wait for the price to drop!!

Anyway, about the movie.. it looks pretty average from the preview. I don't really like this Steve Carrol guy which I know will piss Jordan off (I think it's you who likes him Jordan??) but yeah his other movies have been either shitty or shitty looking.

I guess maybe I will check out Get Smart sometime on DVD all the same but not in any big rush.

I'll keep this post short as I seem to have a habbit of dragging on a bit and almost passing out at the end of long sentences.

Superhero Movie, Very funny and not at all shit like the recent Epic Movie that Parko and I wasted money renting only to watch the first 15 minutes!

Story line was good for a spoof movie and Leslie Neilson was great as usual as the "uncle ben" character.

3.5 BEANS
