Longest Argument EVER - Bonus clip from Bridesmaids (2011) Blu-ray

Lol? Maybe. Not that much going on, but it's still a funny little back and forth between Kristen Wiig and the 13 year-old (or 15) Mia Rose Frampton. This is a 10 minute long argument, so be warned, it can get a little slow, but some of the stuff that comes out of their mouths is a little random, but still funny nonetheless. Bridesmaids is out on Blu-ray and DVD later this year.

Muni Reviews: Bridesmaids (2011)

Bridesmaids Synopsis: Picked as her best friend's maid of honor, lovelorn and broke Annie looks to bluff her way through the expensive and bizarre rituals with an oddball group of bridesmaids. This film came out nearly 3 months ago, and I’ve been waiting patiently since then to watch it. I never got the chance to go watch it on the big screen, it was just one of those things, o well what can you do. So this week I finally got my hands on a copy and sat down and watched in anticipation. So on to the positives firstly, I love Kristen Wiig, she is a tremendous comedy actress, and has worked very hard to represent women in cinema and TV.  In this film she is like your average women in her late 20’s early 30’s going through a stage in her life where she has nearly hit rock bottom.  She plays her character perfectly, she reminds me a lot of Tina Fey, yes both are talented female comedy actresses, and both have been on SNL. I also like Chris O’Dowd, I liked his work on the IT Crowd, and I’m glad he has had a chance to star in a film like this. He does represent your regular guy; he is the ideal guy to play opposite Kristen, and both have a nice chemistry in the film. Jon Hamm is also great, he plays the A**hole perfectly. Did you know he started of in comedy? You can't really tell with his awesome-ness on Mad Men. The group of girls that are the “Bridesmaids” are the just the right mix, in someway we all know a women with those kind of personalities.  The characters are very funny to watch and the casting is very well chosen. The film is very well written; the characters are also beautiful crafted and you could tell the attention to detail put in by the writers. The director also has a standard job in making this film. That’s not a bad thing, its just there’s not a stand out scene, that made me say wow how did he do that. The film has been compared to the female version of the Hangover, and you can see the similarities, but I do think it is very different to that film. The story and the characters are different too, both of which have excelled in the box office. The one thing I was disappointed about was the fact that the other women in the film didn’t get a lot of film time. Yes the film is roughly 2 hours long, but I think the groups of women in the film are so good they deserve a lot more screen time.  Hopefully there could be some sort of sequel that would be fantastic, but the chances of that happening are slim. Overall I’d say if you want to watch a feel good comedy film then this is the best film to watch. The film is very funny, smart, cute and enjoyable. I don’t think anyone I spoke to about this was disappointed, and nor was I. a must watch for people everywhere. 8/10

              Yet another badass piece of news to come from the SDCC - a sweet first look at Snow White and The Huntsman. From what I've read, this film will be putting a new spin on the traditional fairytale. Clicky the pictures to see some Hi-res goodness. IGN are also reporting that the film will indeed contain dwarves- 8 of them. This looks like it could be something different altogether. Kazed.

Kazed reviews: Paul (2011)

Originally, I had set off to watch Limitless, but as fate had it, it wasn't my destiny to see this. So instead, myself and my friends decided to watch Paul. Not that it should be considered an afterthought, just that...you know. Bradley Cooper. He's so dreamy. Anyway, recently I've been catching up on Spaced, the sitcom written by and starring Simon Pegg (Directed by Edgar Wright, of Scott Pilgrim vs. The World, previously). Before watching Spaced, I also watched Hot Fuzz again, which also stars Simon Pegg, and also Nick Frost. What's the point of all this you say? Well, I'm not usually into British comedies, I usually hate them- but recently I've been watching a lot more of them. Shit. I've forgotten why I started this paragraph. Dammit, I'll leave it in anyway so it looks like a lot more text LOL. Paul is about a little alien dude who crash lands on Earth and has been on the planet since 1945, and it's now that the government want to All is not lost though, because the little alien dude, conveniently named "Paul", finds two nerds on a tour of all the Extraterrestrial spots on the West Coast of the US. It was a fun film. Fun, as in, if it had any stupid moments in it, it was justified, because it was a 'fun' film. There were some gorgeous shots during the tour scenes, some of the beauty of the natural landscape was breathtaking. That's all  got. I'm out of descriptive words. Seriously though, I'm trying to think of a scene which brought the film down in any way, but I'm struggling...If I was going to pick out something negative (and this is me being really nit-picky), it'd have to be the scene when the three protagonists are being chased, and there's an overhead shot of the front of their Winnebago-type-vehicle, then it cuts to the back of it, but the road's different. That's it. Thing is though, although that part was really the only negative I could find, the film wasn't 'all that'. It was a light-hearted comedy (kinda), with some great performances from both Frost and Pegg, and the additions of Jason Bateman, Kristen Wiig, Bill Hader and that other guy were all great. Oh, and Sigourney Weaver. I will say, that the animation on the alien were OUT OF THIS WORLD (oooooohhhhh.). It really seemed right on the button. This might sound stupid, but the physical presence of the little guy seemed really believable. Rogen voicing the thing was a great choice. It just seems like such an odd voice for something like that. ANYWAY. I liked this film. It didn't leave me with any exciting feeling afterwards, like I usually get when watching Sci-Fi films, but it was still a good film nevertheless, but nothing to write home about. Wow this wasn't even a review. WHATEVER. 6.5/10 Kazed
