Me Again, You Again
Judging from the online reviews, a lot of people don’t realize that You Again is a comedy, let alone a farce. One reviewer complained that the characters behaved reprehensibly. And they really do. That’s part of the anarchic catharsis allowed … Continue reading
Let’s Go North By Northwest
I was in high school. It was Saturday night. I’d been watching old B movies on the TV. It was ‘way past my bedtime. I was getting ready to go to bed. But then channel four said that they were … Continue reading
A Lemur Called Rollo
Fierce Creatures is a pseudo-sequel to A Fish Called Wanda. It’s working title was probably A Lemur Called Rollo. It has the same four actors playing pretty similar characters. But they have different names. And everyone is like 9 years … Continue reading

No, *I* am Reed Fish!
My last movie review was for Rubber, which seemed a little thin despite some tearing down of the fourth wall by staring-into-the-camera goofiness. Then I saw I’m Reed Fish. There’s someone looking into the camera there too. There’s a strange … Continue reading
Don’t Tread on Me
I really really really wanted to love the movie Rubber. I don’t think it’s about prophylaxis. But maybe it is… Hmmmmm. It’s about an worn out tire from the side of the road that goes on a killing spree. Kind … Continue reading
Too Many Wandas in the Tank
If you’ve never seen A Fish Called Wanda, you’ve made a terrible mistake. John Cleese, of Monty Python fame (some people prefer his work in Fawlty Towers but that stressed me out a little — all that frustration and yelling!), … Continue reading
