It's become quite a struggle to find time to watch movies, and it's even harder to find time to write reviews. I still appreciate the fact that I still can do this despite my crazy schedule and intense work. Unfortunately, that also means that I won't be able to post as much as I used to; but, as I always say, I'll always try to keep this blog up cause I do enjoy doing this.
Bad Teacher was a 2011 comedy film starring Cameron Diaz as a non-typical teacher. Also part of the cast were Justin Timberlake, Jason Segel, Lucy Punch, Matthew J. Evans, Phyllis Smith, John Michael Higgins, Thomas Lennon, Molly Shannon, and more. It was directed by Jake Kasdan and the screenplay was written by Lee Eisenberg and Gene Stupnitsky. It became a box office success, earning more than 200 million dollars worldwide.
The basic premise of the movie was simple. There's a girl who quit teaching to marry a rich man who she thought could support her through life. After the said man saw through her, the wedding was called off and she found herself teaching in the same school. That's when she decided that to get a rich man, she needed to have bigger boobs. Thus started her quest to gather enough money to get the job done, which will, in effect, get her a nice, rich man. Pretty simple, right? Also from the premise, there's a promise of how funny the movie could be, and how it should be.
I did expect more from this movie. It was one of the biggest comedy hits of last year that going into it I had the bar set high. I thought since it was a box-office hit, and because a lot of people seemed to like it, that it will be a lot funnier. It was funny, just not as funny as I thought it would be. It's one of those cases of expecting too much, which I know's a big crime. I just couldn't help it, and during the first half of the movie, I just wasn't being involved in the movie. I even stopped watching it, then just continued watching it the next day. Another thing that bothered me a bit was how the movie underutilized Segel's comic abilities. We all know how funny Marshall Eriksen is in How I met Your Mother, but I didn't think the movie capitalized on that. Sure, his character was one of a supporting role, but I thought the other supporting characters had so much more to do than him, which I thought was a great shame.
The second half of the movie served as its redemption. The second part of the movie was more entertaining and funnier. The exchange of dialogues became more effective, and I thought the material did improve, which made it easier for the actors to translate it to a comedic manner. It did end good.
I know Diaz and Timberlake were the main stars of the movie, but there were two people who definitely stole the show. One was Lucy Punch, who I consider to be the best part of the movie. Her character and the way she portrayed it earned her that title because she truly made the movie more exciting. The scenes I consider to be the best mostly involved her and her awesome yet troubling discomfort towards Diaz's character. It was really funny. The other scene-stealer was Matthew J. Evans. The kid's awkwardness added a sense of light comedy to he movie. He played his "dork" role really well. The funny thing was, he didn't seem like an awkward dork, yet he managed to play it in a very believable manner. Also, another trivia, he's an award-winning filmmaker as well. This kid's got all the right ingredients to make it big in Hollywood.
Cameron Diaz definitely turned it up here. I mentioned how the movie wasn't all that funny, especially in the first half, but Cameron took what she had and made it work to the best of her abilities. She really was a good bad teacher. Her scenes with Lucy Punch were hilarious! Just for those scenes alone, they should do a sequel to this movie. Bad Teacher 2: The Battle, or something like that, where Diaz and Punch would battle it out as they teach two different schools. I just had a lot of ideas how these two would make the sequel better! Timberlake's character was a little mild and reserved, yet a little sleazy as well. It was a bit different though.
One last thing I'll say: it's a shame they deleted some of the scenes from the movie. I saw one deleted scene clip and I thought it would have been the best scene in the movie. If you have time, search for the robot dance on Youtube. I thought that was pretty awesome, but they chose not to show include it on its theatrical release.
It;s a good Sunday movie, probably. Not exactly for the kids though. But it was a pretty good movie. You'll just have to let go of any expectations you might have. Who knows? You probably might like it more than I did. I still liked it though. You can follow me on twitter @sirfilmreviewer or email me at mrfilmreviewer@yahoo.com.

21 Jump Street
Finally, I now have a copy of 21 Jump Street. I waited a long time to watch this movie because of all the great things I've heard about the movie, and I've finally seen it. It wasn't a let down, and I got everything I expected from it and more. It was awesome! I'm sure you'll be reading the word awesome throughout this post, and that just shows how much I enjoyed watching it. I was laughing the whole time. It's a real, straight-up comedy. It brought the laughs, the joys, and the best quality of entertainment.
For those of you who are not aware of the movie, which I highly doubt considering the amount of success the movie enjoyed, and the publicity that went along with it, here are some facts. 21 Jump street was released earlier this year, opening at number 1 and maintaining that spot throughout its opening weekend. The story was created by Jonah Hill himself with Michael Bacall, who transformed it into a screenplay. It was directed by Phil Lord and Chris Miller. The cast included Jonah Hill, Channing Tatum, Brie Larson, Dave Franco, Ice Cube, Elle Kemper, Rob Riggle, Chris Parnell with the cameo appearances of Johnny Depp and Peter DeLuise. The movie enjoyed great success in the box office earning more than 200 million dollars. And that is a lot of money.
I knew 21 Jump Street was a television series, but I didn't know that it was not a comedy show. Apparently, it was a crime/police drama, like CSI or NCIS. I was quite shocked when I found out cause I was under the impression that the movie was a complete remake of the series, which obviously turned out to be a comedy. It was also awesome they they featured the two stars of the television of the series in the movie. Sure it was only for a couple of minutes, but their cameo was just as substantial. It was really awesome that they invited back the two stars of the original Jump Street. It was actually one of the best scenes in the movie when Johnny Depp confessed his appreciation towards his friendship with Peter DeLuise.
This just became my favorite Jonah Hill movie. I've enjoyed all Jonah Hill movies I've seen primarily because Jonah Hill is an awesome comedian. But this just took it to a whole new level, and the quality of the humor and entertainment skyrocketed. It was plain genius. He really has this talent of transforming simple conversations to insanely hilarious quips. He took every opportunity to make the audience laugh. Of course he couldn't have done it with out his partner, Channing Tatum. I won't say this was Tatum's best work because of my bias towards G.I Joe and Step Up. I really enjoyed those two movies but Jump Street also became on of my favorite Tatum movies. It was an absolute pleasure to watch this tandem do their thing.
It had an incredibly funny script and an amusing story as well. It also featured different types of comedy, sarcasm being my favorite. Also, while I don't always enjoy slapstick comedy, I quite liked it in this movie. It was playful. I also appreciated the fact that the movie was set in high school but wasn't a teen movie. It had a semi love story, yes. But nothing too teeny cheesy. It stayed as a comedy the entire time, which kept me laughing and enjoying the movie. Like I said, a real straight up comedy.
This is one of the best comedies in recent Hollywood history. It's been a while since I enjoyed a movie this mush. I always enjoy movies, and I always enjoy comedy movies. But this one is one of the better comedy films out there. Probably one of my favorites in 2012. That's saying a lot, but it's the kind of movie that really sits well with me. I liked the action and the comedy. I liked the actors, and I liked how they made the movie as fantastic as it turned out to be. It was that awesome.

The Vow
The Vow was released earlier this year, and is still holding the record of having one of the best opening weekends this year. The film was based on the novel of Nicholas Sparks, a staple now in Hollywood. It was directed by Michael Sucsy, also oneof the writers of the movie. The movie starred Channing Tatum, Rachel McAdams, Sam Neill, Jessica Lange, Scott Speedman, Jessica McNamee, Tatiana Maslany, and a whole lot more. It was a very successful box office hit, earning almost 200 million dollars on a budget of 30 million. The critics was another story though.
The story was about a married couple who met a terrible accident leading the wife to lose her memory. It was a battle between staying what's familiar against venturing to something new, staying with the family she's familiar with, or to take a leap of faith and be with a man who claimed to be her husband. It showcased the difficulty in dealing with the loss of her memory, and the confusion that went along with it. It also showed how drastic the changes were, ranging from personality, to feelings and everything else in between.
It started with the accident before showing flashbacks of how the two used to be. It showed how they met, how they got together, how it all started. Then it resumes to follow the story after the accident, with the husband trying to recall the memories they used to have. There was a struggle about how to approach things, how to bring back the things things they once had. There were arguments and bickering among the people involved, not only the couple but also the family of the wife.
The whole movie was melodramatic. Sure it had some quirky and funny moments, but as a whole, it was a dramatic narration of a tragic tale. It was a bit romantic, some would say, but for me, it was just a heartfelt drama. It was a bit weird seeing Channing Tatum in a dramatic role. Very far from G.I. Joe, or Tyler from Step Up, or any of his other characters. This was the first time I've seen him in a more serious role. Rachel McAdams was beautiful, and her performance was even more captivating. She was able to portray the loss, the fear, the suffering, and the happiness of taking a gamble with her husband. The two of them had an undeniable chemistry that made this movie all that more genuine.
The movie had a specific attack to the subject. It's even more compelling to find out that the story was based on a true story. How many details from the movie were actually real? We'd never know. But I'm sure they tried to keep the basic spirit of the story straight and true. I'm no romantic, but this story should give everyone hope, not just in love or marriage, but towards everything. Experiencing loss could open up various positive opportunities. There's a lesson to be learned from every loss, and every mistake. This movie captured that essence in a very serene manner, and it led to a well-inspired movie.

In Time
In-Time was a 2011 sci-fi drama movie written and directed by Andrew Niccol. It boasted a well-rounded cast including Justin Timberlake, Amanda Seyfried, Olivia Wilde, Cillian Murphy, Johnny Galecki, Alex Pettyfer, Matt Bomer and Vincent Kartheiser. To be honest, the only reason I watched this movie was the actorsinvolved in it, especially Olivia Wilde and Johnny Galecki. As an avid TV fan, I really enjoyed watching House, which used to be my favorite TV show, and I still enjoy watching The Big Bang Theory. Both television shows brought a certain quality of entertainment which made me a loyal viewer. The movie went on to become a box office hit, which I wasn't all that surprised to hear since the movie was led by two of the most popular stars of the current generation.
The story was about a futuristic America wherein everyone stopped aging at 25, people used time as a mode of payment, and people were segregated by social classes. Will, Timberlake's character, lived in the poorest district with his mother, Rachel, played by Olivia Wilde. After a chance encounter with a well-timed man(I'm using this term to mean a person with a lot of time/resources), Will got over a century worth of time which would back him up to stir some changes in their society, especially after a tragic incident. On his quest to bring changes, he met Sylvia, the daughter of one of the most powerful man in the district of the rich. Their push and pull would cause friction, and also balance throughout the movie.
I found it very intriguing. While not absolutely revolutionary, it still offered a new, modern take on things, especially politics. Also, as a sci-fi movie, different elements came into play to construct such a story. It's like a sci-fi political story. It also had an economic side to it, using time as their primary currency. Then it went deep with the values of things, especially time. There were a lot of layers in the story and each made the story even more interesting. There were a lot of cliches in the movie, but at the same time, the very concept of it made it stand out.
It also utilized location. If I had to describe the locations they used, I'd say it was like The Hunger Games, where poor people lived in dirt, while the rich lived in extravagant residences. The locations were enough to separate the rich from the poor. It also had great musical backgrounds. At times rough, and at times solemn. Every music fit the scene perfectly.
I greatly enjoyed the movie. I know some didn't and some even absolutely hated it. As for me, I enjoyed the idea behind it. Probably the idea was the driving force why I enjoyed it, much more than the actual execution of the idea. At the same time, it's hard not to like the movie when such an idea was being transformed and bought to life, backed up by intense performances from the cast, amazing direction by Niccol and an overall awesome backdrop for the story. It did have some flaws, I'm not gonna lie. However, I can point out all the wrong things about it, and at the end of the day, I'll still like it.

Crazy Little Thing Called Love
I apologize for the delay, and the inconsistent posting of reviews. I've been rendering a lot of overtime in my current work, and when I get home, I just fall asleep. I've been waking up late as well so there's really no time to post. I apologize for that. I'll try to be better and more consistent. I missed doing this!
As a comeback, I decided to watch a movie close to home, produced in one of my neighboring countries Thailand. Crazy Little Thing Called Love, also known as First Love, was a 2010 Thai movie starring Mario Maurer and Pimchanok Luevisadpaibul. The movie was directed by Puttipong Pormsaka Na-Sakonnakorn and Wasin Pokpong. The cast also included awesome people like Sudarat Budtporm, Tangi namonto, Pijitra Siriwerapan, Acharanat Ariyaritwikol, and Kachamat Pormsaka Na-Sakonnakorn. I wished they used the story of Acharanat Ariyaritwikol's character to build up the story, but everything turned out very well. Also, I wished they showed Kachamat Pormsaka Na-Sakonnakorn cause she looked really beautiful in this movie.
It's a little like a fairy tale (minus the fairy). A little like Cinderella, and Ugly Duckling, and a little bit of everything else. It was mainly a love story, a story about young love, and the first experience of it. It's a cute movie. I don't know what's wrong with me using the word cute, but it really was a cute movie. Very light, and very romance-y, but not that cheesy. Well it was a bit cheesy, but nothing too extreme for the context of the movie. It was a movie about transformation, one directed to get the attention of the person being liked, but as it turned out, it did wonders for the people involved anyway.
For a movie most people would categorize as a chick flick, a lot of guys recommended and raved about this movie. It was funny, actually, how some of my friends would even post about it on social networking sites. I've heard about this movie from some people, but when a lot of my friends recommended thismovie, I was very surprised. As much as I loved movies, I never thought I'd actually go see it. But a lot of people had been saying great things about it that there's now way I could pass up the chance to watch it. Ending up liking it was an even bigger surprise.
It was actually pretty good. While watching it, I just knew a lot of girls would love this movie, and a lot of guys would appreciate it too. I'm not even denying that I liked it. I'll say that the movie worked the way it did, because of the chemistry the two main actors had. The two main characters had charisma and accessibility that made the audience relate to them easily. They both did amazing and it was really good to see them in their characters. It's a simple story, simple plot, but the twists and turns of it made it special; and the actors made it even more special. I really liked the cast of the movie, and they were pretty funny as well which made me enjoy the movie even more.
It's a very good movie to see the Thai culture as well. I apologize for this, but I wasn't really all that familiar with the Thai lifestyle and culture. But I felt like I got introduced to it by watching this movie. If anyone in Thailand can answer me, please tell me if everyone there uses a motorcycle. I thought it was pretty cool that even kids drive motorcycles, and that they practice safety measures. Also, another question, what Thai qualities can be spotted int his movie? Please, educate me. I am very interested.
It was a good movie. I had a lot of laughs, and I greatly enjoyed it. Definitely must check out if you're into foreugn cinema. I am very appreciative of any movie, especially movies made in different places. That's why I also liked watching Fermat's Room, Remember O Goddess, The Professor and His Beloved Equation, etc. I like movies from all over the world and this just made it to the list of the ones I really liked.
