Can anyone who is not Stooge fan can enjoy the Three Stooges? More specifically, can one who is a fan of Stooge might find merit in this Farrelly missed?
As a longtime fan of comedy, three Moe Howard, Larry Fine and Curly Howard (the latter name eventually replaced Shemp Howard series, Joe Besser and Joe Derita), I was lucky enough to have all three Stooges shorts made between 1934 and 1959. Typically, I do not have movies in which they were taken, not only because most of these efforts (most made in 1960) has noted, the team had its day, but because these guys, if the story better.
Let the devil Charlie Chaplin and Preston Sturges, Woody Allen and the other actors who have something to say - when he came to the Stooges, we want our nyuks fast and furious.
The need for brevity, a lesson lost on his brother directors Bobby and Peter Farrelly, who felt the need for the world 92 minutes with three imitators Three Stooges Stooges movie. Despite their efforts, the game, Chris Diamantopoulos, Sean Hayes and Will Sasso will never make us forget that we are not watching Moe, Larry and Curly - they are the cinematic equivalent of a cover band, and competently with the movements in the surface, but not in able to compete with the real thing.
They threw in a standard-issue story about the mission of improving the mountains a considerable amount of money to avoid the orphanage from bankruptcy. Farewell to the nuns who run the place - in the ranks of sister Jane Lynch Glee, Oscar winner Jennifer Hudson, Sports Illustrated model Kate Upton, Larry David, and clothes - they go to the big city, where they were constantly in the area of beauty (Sofia Vergara) and her boyfriend unhappy (Craig Bierko), to kill her husband (Kirby Heyborne).
Intelligent scenario would play to the premises of the old Stooges appeared in today's world, but only one gag (including iPhone), even looks in that direction. Instead, the film pricks on the relevance of where we do not want - but most would expect - to do: in the humor of the bank.
There exists an infinite sequence in which hospitals use three-quarters of children, arms, holding their naked bodies, and shooting each other jets of urine. Nevertheless, it is difficult to say which is more severe, this sequence or those that provide enough time, the screen with the distribution of shore Jersey. (You read that correctly: Snooki situation and all other open mouth eaters dig SAG minutes here.)
The same evening, after sitting through this selection, washing left a bad taste this movie, I jumped into a puppet in a classic short DVD - 1940 plumbing we will go, to be exact. Now my eyes sting, twist the ears, nose, setting, head-knocking fun.
Cabin in the Woods
Stop me if you heard this one before. Five college kids to go to the salon in the middle of nowhere, hope, r and p. Instead, something bad starts to pick them one by one ...
If you have conducted their own existence in a shack in the middle of nowhere, there's no way not to know about this configuration, which caused a lot of horror films for four decades and counting. But it ensures that you have not seen anything like Cabin in the Woods, which uses its usual meaning, even boring, as the lull us into a false sense of dating.
This is not a horror film at discounted prices, for example, on Friday, or 13 Cabin Fever, but, rather, written and directed by Joss Whedon and Drew Goddard, co-author of Rod Serling choose a monkey takes viewers to the "travel to the country a great imagination." cabin in the woods do not have enough Twilight Zone, but he manages to carve out a niche place.
This film is particularly difficult to reach, at least one potential viewer knows, the better - I dare say, even a relatively spoiler free trailer reveals nothing more than is desirable. So, let's establish that we can determine from the first film. Five students sympathetic - sweet Dana (Kristen Connolly), live Julia (Anna Hutchison), a hard worker, Kurt (Chris "Thor" Hemsworth), calm Holden (Jesse Williams) and constantly stoned Marty (Fran Kranz) - leave town and go to the remote salon owned by a cousin Kurt. Meanwhile, Sitterson (Richard Jenkins) and Hadley (Bradley Whitford), the two men in what appears to Science Center, babbling about the accident in 1998, and his colleagues take a considerable amount Paris.
Not enough Intel? Unfortunately, that's all you get here. But be sure that these two plot lines eventually find each other. When they do, the film falls into what I thought was a change in misery, to settle at the standard rate with a high degree of cynicism uncomfortable. Silly me, short-sighted. Cabin in the woods soon broke out of this scheme, more and more outrageous and entertaining as the barrel to its prisoners, not the climax and conclusion.
To reveal anything more about this film would have been criminal. But did I mention that the frog is a happy made me laugh?
RAID: Redemption
In 1948, the Treasure of Sierra Madre, Alfonso Bedoya villain grinned excerpt from the dialogue in the classic prospector Humphrey Bogart: "The signs we have not received any signs we do not need no badges I have to show you?.! Stinkin any badges!"
Absorbing insane blur effect, Raid: Redemption, you can easily imagine, written and directed by Gareth Evans, spitting lines like the critics and viewers, not on their wavelength. "Conspiracy? We do not have a plot. We do not need to plot, I do not have to show you the plot of any Stinkin!"
Need for speed need for effective fighters, but even as a die-hard doozies, and Volatile took the time to smell the exhibition. This Indonesian import can not affect these details: After the prologue, which lasts about as long as it takes to brush your teeth without flossing - we meet a policeman named Rama (Iko Uwais) at home, to love his pregnant wife before leaving for work - we just is plunged into the thick of things. A ruthless crime lord is on the top floor of the building, slums, and a special police unit told to take it.
Yes, it's basically the whole show, it's not Shakespeare - heck, it's not even Stephenie Meyer - but who needs complexity when the end result is pure entertainment than is presented here? There is a traitor among the good, but the identity is so obvious that it hardly needs a brain. There is also a connection between the hero and one of the wicked, but it is so ridiculous and outlandish that it also proves that the film does not attempt to lift heavy objects in the brain.
No, Raid: Redemption works best as pure, pure, uncut action - it is like cocaine, epinephrine for drug addicts. Although the film can not cause the memories of countless other actioners, especially those that are carefully controlled buildings (Die Hard, Assault on Precinct 13, the attack on the building), its movement, all its mainly due to contributions from the star, and stuntman and martial arts expert Uwais. Struggle from hand to hand is breathtaking to behold, and Welsh descent Evans also knows how to get maximum performance from wide scenes that focus on the fight, and not shooting.
The figures are painted in such a large - or, in some cases, awkward - strikes that only two really stand out. One of them, of course, Rama, with his natural charisma Uwais. Another villainous henchman appropriately nicknamed Mad Dog. Singer Yayan Ruhian, it's a little nervous man who lives to fight - and kill - with feet and fists.
On the one hand, he had the opportunity to shoot one of the characters, but instead wants to set up their weapons and fight up close and personal kicks and blows with the negotiations, until one of them died. In most movies, this situation could lead to an incredible audience laugh, but not here. Witness Mad Dog can damage the human body, the ball suddenly seems to be a good way.
Tyrannosaur
Sandy Tyrannosaurus British drama opens the scene in which Jacob is drunk (Peter Mullan), in a fit of rage, his dog begins to death. And it should be friendly all the people who trample through lower-level setting of the film Leeds.
As Gary Oldman makes his writing and directorial debut with a film about an unhappy British (1997 Nil By Mouth), as Paddy Considine. An experienced actor (My Summer of Love, in America) declined for the camera mode turbulent history, in which Jacob, who is likely to hit someone smiles at them, finally meets a man, he may be a little stand. That would be Hannah (Olivia Colman), a humble Christian, whose husband, James (Eddie Marsan), almost Atticus Finch James look like in comparison.
When we first met James, he was drunk and urinate on the back of the wife as she sleeps on the couch. This odious behavior of her husband's grotesque easier to understand why Anna never walked away from Jacob, but I decided to pray for him. Despite the belief Hannah, it's not exactly a marriage made in heaven: James is first treated her illness, but over time, the pair begin to enjoy the friendship, which, at best, brings a ray of sunshine or twice in my life.
There is more about the film - the most deserving characters with a terrible fate, the most despicable thugs area are asked to painful retribution, and more suffering, which will be distributed to anyone unlucky to be born under a written Considine. Obviously, the Tyrannosaurus will not be leaving the audience with the song selection in your heart (if it's a song, perhaps, "Ave Satani"), but the film is impeccably designed with sterling performances of all three sons. Those fishing on the "malaise" cool, do not be disappointed.
