Movie Review: Really 'Horrible Bosses'

Just before Pedring made landfall Monday night, Vic and I watched this hit comedy movie Horrible Bosses.  I really enjoyed watching Jennifer Aniston and Kevin Spacey in it as they played their 'horrible' roles to the hilt! I bet you've never seen goody-goody girl Jennifer in such a nasty role before!  Here, she's no holds-barred and plays all the sex innuendoes to the hilt!  This is also the first time I've seen Kevin Spacey do a relatively 'light' role so it's a good break from seeing him in something very serious.

I also like Charles Day, the guy Jennifer was flirting with.  Maybe because it's the first time I've seen him that's why his performance sticks to my head.

Over-all it's a very light movie.  Watch Colin Farrell disappear in all that make-up! 

Movie Review: Fright Night Is Actually Scary!

I just caught one of last screenings of Fright Night, a remake of the 1985 movie, which I was not able to see, but heard about.  Anyhow, this updated version harks back to what vampires are really like.  So while everyone awaits the brooding vampires of Twilight, we get to see blood-sucking, really ugly, sons of bitches, off to conquer the world, block by suburban block!

Colin Farrell is perfect as the sexy vampire but watch him transform to an ugly SOB here!  I like everyone in the cast, from Anton Yelchin to Toni Collette to comedian Christopher Mintz-Plasse, who has perfected that geeky comedian schtick.  The suspense starts in the beginning so there are no pauses here where there's no action.  It's boom-boom-boom from the start.

This is a perfect date movie since your date will surely cuddle close to you.  Colin doesn't shed his shirt off though and he does really get ugly here and nasty.  He's a vampire, after all!
