Greetings once again!
, starring Seann William Scott and John C. Reilly.
It seems I was mistaken in my judgement of this particular film upon merely reading the blurb on the back of the DVD case. On the front cover, Jeff Craig from Sixty Second Preview even labelled this film as being "Terrifically smart and funny." Take a look...
the first few times, it was the same premise at base value.
ood at playing stupid but funny characters.
. For those of you who are uninitiated with this film, feel free to skip this section. Okay, are you ready?
. Make sure it's a scene you can remember quite clearly; a scene you can recall some of the lines from. Once you've captured that scene in your mind, take Will Smith out of the picture and replace him with Seann William Scott. Now play the scene over in your head with Seann reciting all of Will's lines. It just doesn't seem right does it?
had very little substance plot-wise. Although it appeared to be deep, to me it seemed more like a high school student rambling on and on about the same point in an essay so that he could fill up the word limit. I was tempted to stop the film about halfway through but decided to keep watching considering I had paid $4.95 for this movie and was going to stick with it in the hope that some form of climax would reveal itself and the movie would get interesting.
This never happened.
Kenny was killed by a giant fiery boulder in the previous episode, he still would be alive and well in the next.
I'm really not sure what prompted me to rent this movie. I'd not heard anything about it, I'd not seen any trailers, I didn't even know if it had been in cinemas or not. All I know is, prior to tonight, I had rented and watched every other film I found interesting contained within that video store and thus, was given the opportunity to know how a student dubbed team captain feels when he has to choose the uncoordinated kid because he's the only one who hasn't been assigned a team.
I give this film a two out of five for trying - in very much the same way I would give a lower-functioning autistic child a golden star because he spelled his name correctly on his exam paper.
Yours sincerely,
Dthincrnte.
I used Kenny being killed in South Park as a perfect example for comparison of a show in which almost nothing ever changes from episode to episode.
