The Sadness is a Taiwanese movie which was written, directed, and even edited by Canadian filmmaker Rob Jabbaz. At this time, the movie is Jabbaz’s only feature film in his catalogue, though fans of The Sadness are surely awaiting his next project with nervous excitement. Before crafting this psychological deep dive into the post-COVID world, Jabbaz primarily worked on self-taught animations, helming such short films as Fiendish Funnies, Great Daena: A Fateful Encounter, and Clearwater.

The film is certainly not Shakespeare, but if you’re looking for an upbeat, mostly family-friendly movie to throw on and chuckle at, I think Mr Deeds holds up a lot better than many of Adam Sandler‘s other early career films. The movie has a ton of heart, a solid moral foundation, and some truly hilarious gags, such as Deeds’ obsidian black frostbitten foot, which is hardened to the point that he can use it as a blunt object. Unfortunately, the film is currently not streaming anywhere, leaving fans of Mr Deeds to rely on their old DVD copies, if they can manage to find them. Source link

Okay, now that I’m thinking about it, Twister is definitely a disaster movie, but it’s not like other disaster movies. Bill Paxton and Helen Hunt are absolute quip machines, and their banter is what truly seals the deal for me. Their crew, featuring the likes of Alan Ruck, Philip Seymour Hoffman, Jake Busey, and Joey Slotnick, all of which who have excellent comedic timing, makes for a great romantic comedy. As Bill and Jo sort out their personal issues, the whole crew is rooting for them to not only get Dorothy to fly, but also hug and kiss and make up. Melissa, who I need to remind you is a wonderful woman, can go kick rocks because this movie is about Bill, Jo, and their undying love for each other. Source link

Pumpkin is a low-brow attempt at dark satire but falls short of the mark in many places. The movie succeeds in creating a stuffy, snobby atmosphere and filling the storyline with some of the shallowest characters imaginable, but only does so by exhausting old college film tropes that have been done to death. The critics of its time seemed to admire the premise of the production but felt that the tongue-in-cheek plot devices were too zany and worked to totally offset the satirical message the film was trying to convey. Ricci does well in her role as Carolyn, playing the naive and one-dimensional college girl whose eyes are opened by her new relationship. Pumpkin‘s one saving grace is the Addams Family actress’s performance, and the movie remains one of her most underrated roles. You can str...

There is a Lost example of a trap door that really wasn’t, as like Babylon 5’s later seasons, the crew in Hawaii had to deal with approaching an end game that didn’t require everyone’s involvement. That’s why they brutally killed Elizabeth Mitchell’s Juliet using a deep, dark hole and a hydrogen bomb, but this led to fans immediately speculating that she died because Mitchell was starring in the new series V. For years, this was accepted knowledge among fans, but the timing was actually backward, and Mitchell got the offer for V because Juliet was going to die, and the network wanted to keep her around. So while this wasn’t actually a trap door, Lost’s lack of planning is still felt here compared to the intricate narrative of Babylon 5, as Elizabeth Mitchell has said in interviews that the...

In the 16 years since The House Bunny premiered, Anna Faris has gone on to star in numerous other projects, including Alvin and the Chipmunks: The Squeakuel, The Dictator, The Emoji Movie, and, of course, her long-running CBS sitcom Mom, which ran from 2013 through 2020. While each of these projects highlights Faris’ talents in its own way, fans would surely be overjoyed to see her returning to the leading position of a House Bunny 2 movie, especially if it means ratcheting up the stakes as a CIA interrogator. Currently, the actress is on a press tour for her newly-released movie My Spy: The Eternal City, which is currently streaming on Amazon Prime Video. Source link
