I was suckered into these movies, with nonetheless great songs that made me wanna jump out of my chair and rock out with my 80s swing and be left with the hollow feeling of emptiness after subjecting myself to an 1hour and 45 minute suck fest.. This movie, I thought could have been better, it had a good cast comedic wise, but the story just ran to short. A guy (Topher Grace) decides he wants to tell his High school crush played by none else than Number6 (Teresa Palmer) (Great movie btw, watch I AM NUMBER4). They meet at this party and the story follows his sister who is played by Anna Faris and best friend Dan Fogler through the party as obstacles arise and how they realize maybe, "One I need a better life", "My life Sucks", and "I have a backbone now". That's pretty much the story in a nut shell. I was highly disappointed, I think this movie was Eh, OK if your watching TV on a Friday night and have nothing else to do, maybe you can sneak a clip on the Comedy Central Network in a year when they decide to play it on TV.
Critic choice... " WAIT.... and keep Waiting!"..
Hall Pass
Old School rival? Wedding Crashers? Nope, not even close. This movie fell short of comedy and storyline. I felt bad that I didn't laugh as much so I pretended to smile at the short blows and comedic use of an old guy thinking he can score a date or sex with a young pretty girl... This was definitely written by a man because well it doesn't happen but in fantasies played out by married men in a loveless marriage... Skip it, rent it.. and you decide if you can handle the same plot discussed over and over again. Like the one above, could have been great, but the lack of build up, comedic punch, and over-all chemistry of the two bestfriends hurt the movie. Vince Vaughn, Owen Wilson this is how it always should be... Could have been great.
Critic Choice... "Wait.. rent it.
PS: IF you have children, don't watch this with them, you get a huge snag of an Irish and African American Genitalia and it's not pretty, it's pretty much 2minutes of penis observation; up close and unfortunately personal..
