She's Out of My League

You know, this movie was actually quite a bit more entertaining then I expected it to be. It was incredibly predictable in some ways, but that’s to be expected with this type of movie I think. It was very funny in an extremely-awkward-make-you-squirm-in-your-seat type of way and it had me laughing through pretty much the entire movie.Jay Baruchel, Kirk, was perfect as the awkward geeky guy with the hot girl. You actually could almost believe that he could get a girl as gorgeous as Alice Eve, Molly. And T.J. Miller was hilarious as Stainer, Kirk’s best friend. He actually pretty much stole the show for me. Every scene that he was in I was just laughing the entire time. I don’t remember ever seeing him in anything before this, but he really needs to be in more movies.Overall, I think this was a great disposable comedy. It’s one of those movies that if you’re in the mood for a good laugh without a lot of deep, convoluted story-lines then it’s absolutely perfect. It was definitely entertaining and, although I probably wouldn’t see this one a second time, it was worth watching.

So this movie was alright, especially if you like those romantic comedies. Be warned it’s a little raunchy, but if your girl doesn’t mind that and has a sense of humor that works with that then this movie is perfect for date night. I found myself laughing through the whole movie. A good sign. I’ve watched some funnier movies but this one held its own. The actors were perfect, and it really touched the hearts of those guys out there that are the "average joes” There were some new faces, like T.J. Miller who played a guy named Stainer. The dude was almost the funniest one of the bunch and I was glad to see some other comedians making their light. Jay Baruchel did a wonderful job in the spotlight and Alice Eve is just plain hot. I was impressed with both of them even if the film wasn’t everything.
What I didn’t like about the movie was you never had the usual structure. Usually a movie goes: guy meets girl, guy falls for girl, problem happens and guy and girl can’t be together, guy chases girl down. This one went through a bunch of hoops and several problems happened. And there was more then just the guy chasing the girl down. Now that isn’t so bad but I felt like the ending was rushed. It was too quick and chaotic to really be believable. I don’t usually watch movies to believe them but when you have the concept of the average joe getting with Miss Beautiful you tend to want something closer to realistic. Overall, though, if this is the only thing I can say bad about the movie then it wasn’t that bad at all.
Go see it, you'll laugh.
Now to go find MY hot girlfriend. I wonder if Alice Eve is available...

When In Rome

When In Rome… well… it was good. I mean, if you like romantic comedies then you will love this movie. It had a fairly unique love story (as unique as you can get with a romantic comedy) and it was definitely entertaining. I was literally cracking up at a lot of different parts and I was not bored at any time. Kristen Bell and Josh Duhamel are both wonderful actors and they definitely had some chemistry which made it interesting to watch. There’s nothing worse than watching a romantic comedy and being able to tell that the actors can’t stand each other in real life. There were also some other amazing actors in this that definitely did not get enough press. Danny Devito, John Heder and Dax Shepard were amazing in this. They were hilarious and I did not know that any of them were in this movie except Dax Shepard. It was definitely a pleasant surprise to see Danny Devito pop up in this movie especially since I haven’t seen him in anything in so long!
Overall, I think this movie was very enjoyable. It was funny but it still had the romantic thing going on and they couldn’t have gotten better actors for any of the characters. There were some unique aspects to the movie which you just don’t get a lot in romantic comedies. I for sure think that this movie is worth seeing, but you could skip seeing it in the theater. It was funny and very cute, but unless you just absolutely love romantic comedies you can rent this one and still get the same effects.

Yes I gave it 3. No I’m not gay. Yes I can like romantic comedies and I don’t need to just say that to get in good with a chick. This thing wasn’t bad. I laughed. I was entertained. You can’t want more from a chick flick like this one. The concept was alright and more appealing then the standard "guy meets girl". Of course it was predictable, what romantic comedy isn’t? But it wasn’t so standard that you lose track or dislike it. I, with my co-reviewer here, agreed that the fact that Devito was in it was a pleasant surprise to me. (No I don’t usually look at the cast listing prior to seeing the movie, I mostly just watch previews like the rest of you do). Strictly from a guys perspective, Kristen Bell is F’n hot. She should be reason enough for a guy to go see this. Just ‘pretend’ your not staring at her when the girl you brought on a date glances at you. If she asks if you think she’s pretty just respond in the safest way imaginable, “Not as pretty as you.” (Insert your smile here). Granted, that might not be the best way to respond but your not reading this for my dating advice. In conclusion for you guys, if you have to take your chick to see something this weekend and she’s screaming it's her pick, this movie isn’t a bad choice; you’ll at least be entertained. Heck, surprise her and offer this as your pick and she might just reward you for being such a nice guy.
