Movies!

Okay, I've got two for you today, one I'm sure most of you know about and the other, I kind of doubt it (but I have links for you guys :) )

First off, is The Hangover.

Actor-wise, I think that Zach Galifinakis did wonderful in this movie, despite being... well, basically unknown. No offense to the guy, I love his standup. He was exactly weird enough to make him moderately frightening and hilarious at the same time. But the one who stole the show, at least for my sister-in-law and brother, was Ed Helms. He plays a dentist who's one of the good friends of the "lead" Justin Bartha. And, may I say that Heather Graham is damn attractive? Easily could be a stripper and make a few more millions.

Plot-wise, it's about four guys who have one hell of a night in Las Vegas. Any more than that and I'd be spoiling it for you.

What I gave the movie was around 4.5 out of 5 (my usual scale). My sister-in-law and brother gave it a 4 and a 3.5 respectively. My friend Mary who saw it with me before *yes, I went twice, it's that good) gave it somewhere in the area of a 4 (it was about two and a half weeks ago, the weed messes with my memory). All in all however, this movie is without a doubt, hilarious. A must see for anyone who's of age for the movie.

Second is a movie called Eagle Vs. Shark.

Actor-wise, we have Joel Tobeck, who some of you might remember from 30 Days of Night and Jemaine Clement who was a writer and composer for Flight of the Concords (some of you must want to see it just because of that). Loren Horsley (who personally I've never heard of) is the lead, and for the character she plays, she does a fantastic job. I may see if I can scrounge up something else she's been in. (*mental note to IMDB her*)

Plot-wise, it's two losers coming together in a story where they, "try to find love; through revenge on high-school bullies, burgers, and video games." Honestly, I can't do it justice, so... *looks for people who'd bully him about putting links up* Okay, coast is clear!

I got this movie recommended to me by a friend of mine in New Zealand (much love Azzy!) and I have to agree with her that this movie is one for the top shelf (or top bookmarks) of your movie collection. Just wait for the awkwardness to pull you in and the lines to make you laugh.

That's all I've got for you re-tards and cock holes. Take care everybody!
