Review :

I must say the Pink Panther 2 really amazed me! As someone who hasn’t seen the first Pink Panther or even the Pink Panther cartoon, I really liked this movie! Steve Martin (aka Jacques Clouseau) did an amazing job with this character and worked the comedy to the core!

One of the reasons why I loved this movie was because it was family oriented but it gave everyone their laughs. It had a lot of goofy things for the children while providing the older age groups with some flaring jokes. Ultimately, it’s a movie for everyone!

The writers did a great job to include many other main characters in this move. They did this because with multiple main characters, Jacques Clouseau (Steve Martin) could play comedy off of each of them individually. There was a new joke for each character after Clouseau met them. This really made a lot of laughing opportunities in the movie.
The trailer for this movie does a great job in showing the audience the story of this movie and putting a good amount of the comedy into the trailer. They did conserve a lot of the comedy for the whole movie as well, so if you’re thinking “They probably ruined it with the trailer,” you can think again! Although the trailer did deter me from seeing the movie sooner, a very excited spouse pulled me into seeing this movie with her.

This movie is definitely worth the price of the movie ticket, absolutely worth the DVD to be added to your collection, and if not the purchase then a rental price will give you a few hours of laughs.

Review:

I must say this movie really came at a surprise to me! I did not think that Adam Sandler could actual endure an entire film without making an adult joke or saying a foul word. But in the end I was actually “surprised”…

All the actors not only did a great job, but they connected well. Although the movie did seem too focused on the story of Skeeter Bronson, I would say it pinpointed the success of the film.

If you see the movie then think back through the scenes and lines the character’s say you could see that a few re-writes could have turned this film into a full on “Sandman” movie; but it’s the thought that counts.

If you plan on seeing this movie be prepared to laugh at Russell Brand’s lines quite a few times. Adam Sandler does get some good one-liners in that make you laugh in the oddest way as if were 5 years old again.

Overall, definitely an acceptable movie to see, but I’m not going to be dipping my hands in for seconds unless I’m offered a free viewing.

Review:

I’m just going to say it without holding back; this movie was great! If you like romantic comedies, life stories, and cute little puppies then you will love this movie! I was questioning this film when watching the trailer, yet I was pulled in with the humor it imposed. Though I was not aware of the heart touching story that came with the film as a whole.

From start to finish this movies ties all knots and twists all strings with a comical beginning to an emotion driven ending. At the start of the movie the film does a great job of presenting a solid and clear background story. Continuing, the movie then changes its focus by introducing its new character, Marley. With this new character, the focus of the movie shifted slightly but not as much as you’d think. They play Marley to be an important part of John Grogan’s new found life but not entirely. As you suspected from the trailer of this movie the mainstream is in actuality not Marley yet the directors use a semi-extended fast forward scene of John’s column topics to show Marley’s importance factor in John’s life.

This movie is the story of John Grogan’s life after marriage. The movie trailer seems to be misleading from the meaning to the movie. With no intimate or emotionally faulting scenes in the trailer, the movie is displayed as a fun-filled comedy. When, after viewing, the movie is a heart-touching love story.

So now you know about the film Marley and Me so if you seem interested but are a little suspicious about the trailer you now have all the facts to make an accurate decision! Go see the movie and post your comments!

Review:

To start off, THIS IS A GREAT MOVIE! In my eyes, Jim Carrey is back! Or was never gone, either way this is an excellent movie! Jim Carrey puts himself in the movie as he did with Liar Liar and Bruce Almighty. If your a die-hard Carrey fan, then you’ve probably already seen the movie. If you haven’t, you will and you wont regret it.

There is not much I can really say about this movie because Jim has been my idol my whole life, I love his humor, and I’m almost positive my best friend has the same potential as him. Some people are just funny the way they are! The studio does a great job of giving Jim the proper environments he needed to work his character to the core. But don’t be fooled… Some skeptical people are disgusted by this movie.

There are people I’ve spoken to suggesting that Yes Man is to similar to Jim’s past movie Liar Liar. Sure it’s the same concept, but it is a different situation and a different point of view. All together, the price of a movie ticket is well worth seeing this great actor work his magic with the filming industry.

The thing I am looking forward to most with this movie is the behind the scenes, deleted scenes, and all the blooper extras because everyone knows what Jim does on-camera is only a snippet of his comedy.
