“Monsters vs Aliens” Movie Review
“Monsters vs Aliens” Plot Summary
When a meteorite from outer space hits a young woman and turns her into a giant monster, she is taken to a secret government compound where she meets a ragtag group of monsters also rounded up over the years. |
Enjoyable and fun.
Nothing really great, understand, but they took this ‘high concept’-fifties Hollywood movie Monsters and had them battle an alien invasion. Pretty funny.
It’s fast moving, there’s the usual satire(Close Encounters/Trek/Star Wars/the Blob/etc etc nods galore), funny voicers (Stephen Colbert as the Prezzy, Rogen as the Blob, Hugh Laurie as the Fly(more or less), and of course, the expected manic chase/action finale.
Best parts? They did a bang-up job on the Fifty Foot Gal there(Reese Witherspoon), rounding her character out much better than the usual animated gal is(‘the girl’ or ‘the wife’ or ‘the villainess’ etc) and I commend them for it.
Oh and the attack on San Fran is worth the price of admission, too.
*** outta ****, you’ll enjoy.

“Knocked Up” Movie Review
“Knocked Up” Plot Summary
For fun loving party animal Ben Stone, the last thing he ever expected was for his one night stand to show up on his doorstep eight weeks later to tell him she’s pregnant.
Funny
‘Knocked-Up’ was far better than I had hoped. I was not impress with the ‘40 Year-Old Virgin’ or ‘Superbad’ which were crass and uninspiring. ‘Knocked-Up’ in stark contrast still maintains the adolescence humor of ‘40 Year-Old Virgin’ or ‘Superbad’ but is far more intelligent and witty, bordering at times on comedic brilliance. It is also able to match the comedy with a sincere thread throughout, which is hard to achieve. Seth Rogen is great as the expectant father, I am unsure how much of the script was improvised but there were many moments of laugh-out-loud originality, the whole cast delivers on the acting front. At times the jokes can be a little too crude, but overall they are well managed. Special mention to the scene in the Las Vegas hotel between Rogen and Paul Rudd, high on mushrooms their interplay is spot-on and it is moments like this which make it memorable
The one criticism I do have is the last 30 minutes, the gags do not seem to work as well due to the more serious tone, and the film lumbers a little. I respect that the film wanted to make an emotional punch at the end but it dallied a little too long.’Knocked-Up’ is an enjoyable film and I recommend that you make an effort to watch it.

“The 40 Year Old Virgin” Movie Review
“The 40 Year Old Virgin” Plot Summary
Goaded by his buddies, a nerdy guy who’s never “done the deed” only finds the pressure mounting when he meets a single mother.
The funniest comedy since ‘THERE’S SOMETHING ABOUT MARY’ ; Steve Carell is a comic genius – the year’s funniest film!
THE 40 YEAR-OLD VIRGIN (2005) **** Steve Carell, Catherine Keener, Paul Rudd, Romany Malco, Seth Rogen, Elizabeth Banks, Leslie Mann, Jane Lynch, Gerry Bednob, Shelley Malil, Kat Dennings. Hysterically funny high-concept comedy about the titular Andy Stitzer (wonderfully played by perennial second banana Carell in a truly extraordinarily comic breakthrough performance sure to stratosphere him to the A-list), a tech services rep for an electronics store in Southern California who is found out about his secretive identity by a trio of well-meaning yet entirely clueless womanizing co-worker buddies (Rudd, Malco & Rogen, each one degree funnier than the next) determined to get their friend deflowered no matter the cost. What follows is an unlikely yet very warm-hearted romance with a vivacious mother (the marvelous Keener having lots of fun here) leading to add more fuel to the fires within Andy. A surprisingly good-spirited and unapologetically raunchy romantic comedy; the funniest since ‘There’s Something About Mary’ with a shrewdly observant script by director Judd Apatow and Carell that features some astoundingly gut-busting sequences including a scathingly accurate David Caruso joke, homophobic debunking ribbing, send-ups of ‘date-a-paloozas’ and demystifying the war of the sexes with cheeky aplomb. A true winner and an instant classic; the funniest film of the year.
