Hello Friends,
Sorry for the lack of updates, I have been busy and such. Anyways lets kick today off with This Is The End, starring Seth Rogan, James Franco, Jonah Hill, Jay Baruchel...you know what? Everyone from Freaks and Geeks, any Judd Apatow film and anyone who is popular right now. They were ALL in this film and it was hilarious.
Giving us small folk a look into the Hollywood high life, these guys couldn't have done pull it off in a better way. Playing on the stereotypes of self-centered, drug-using narcissistic actors, the writers made fun in the most realistic way ( with the exception of Michael Cera using drugs, cm'on George Michael!). I won't give much away as far as plot because you should see the film but, Jay Baruchel comes to L.A. to visit Seth Rogan and have an epic weekend filled with video games,drinking and drugs. However when Rogan wants to go to a party at James Franco's house, Baruchel reveals he doesn't like Seth's friends. Well bad things happen and hilarity ensues.
Jonah Hill was great, playing a peace and love version of himself, while James Franco cracked me up as a self absorbed petty man. He has a basement of props and stuff from all his films and even uses the handheld camera from 127 Hours. I loved how all these actors made fun of themselves as well as others. Look for the odd cameo's from Paul Rudd and Channing Tatum, they are fantastic.
Yes, it's crude humor at times and a tad uncomfortable, but seriously look who's in this film! It's going to be that way and that my friends is consistency. I highly recommend this movies if for nothing else, a good time with lots of air conditioning. So many fun references and surprising faces....Oh! and one more reason to see this film, BACKSTREET BOYS! Enough said.
Again sorry for the delays guys but tomorrow is our Friday Freakfest, where I'll be talking about a Spanish foreign film called The Baby's Room.
Keep Watching and Get Scared
