As far as heavily animal-based romantic comedies produced by Adam Sandler go, at least this one has fewer bestiality jokes than The Animal. Decent CG animal lipwork. | As far as heavily animal-based romantic comedies produced by Adam Sandler go, at least this one has fewer bestiality jokes than The Animal. Decent CG animal lipwork. | ||

January 29, 2011
Much better than Mega Shark vs Giant Octopus, in that this movie doesn't take a break from the ridiculous to have pieces of boring. It's just balls-to-the-wall crazy. Recommended.
February 23, 2011
A one note movie, but what a ridiculously insane note. Possibly the strangest climate change warning flick yet.
March 12, 2011
What Lost Skeleton did for 50s sci-fi movies, Black Dynamite does for 70s blaxploitation movies. Black Dynamite (the character) could kick the asses of all characters from movies I've reviewed.

Ordinary people stumbling upon extraordinary circumstances. Very compact, taking place entirely in and around an apartment building. I enjoyed.
March 21, 2011
Firefly wasn't really a "heroes save the world" type of show, but they pretty successfully elevate it to major issues in its own way here.
May 4-5, 2011
Veteran becomes increasingly involved in the family business, finds it a transformative experience. Also long, dramatic, and well acted.
June 12, 2011
Hollywood dick rips off a kid's story. Then it becomes sort of like Home Alone, if Kevin had gone on the offense instead of playing defense. Contains both Jaleel White and Dustin Diamond.
June 13, 2011
Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part 1
The shit hits the fan. Even with only half a book to cover some pretty big stuff is left out, but definitely feels less rushed than the previous few.
July 7, 2011
Turns out balancing safety, business success, and family happiness is tough. There are two pretty good movies in here, and it feels like enough subtext that there's an invisible third.
September 1, 2011
A fun enough suburban vampire watch, but without one great thing in particular that sticks out to comment on. Just solid all around. Some 3D effects were a bit gratuitous.
September 5, 2011
It could've been even better with the proper old voice actors, but this is just a fun blast of nostalgia even if you're not familiar with all the crossed-over Ninja Turtle branches.

As far as heavily animal-based romantic comedies produced by Adam Sandler go, at least this one has fewer bestiality jokes than The Animal. Decent CG animal lipwork.
