Review:
First of all I, loved the time setting which totally came off as a movie from the 90’s; the clothes, the looks, the make-up, the hair, everything was on point. I never heard of Aubrey Plaza before, but I am sure she delivered a decent performance given that the script was simple and lacked in creativity. I don’t mind raunchy comedies, but this one didn’t just pushed the limits of good taste, it was simply not needed. I couldn’t find any original idea besides the setting, but I can watch an original for that. When the movie ended I was wondering why this movie was even made. All I got was a cool soundtrack, a time setting of a nice era, and one or two laughs, but I also could have saved two hours of my life and done something meaningful like NOT writing how bad it was! 😀 The To-Do-List has its pros and cons but mainly cons, which are a lack of everything. However, if you are a fan of immature sexual and crude sense of humor, I am sure you will enjoy it.
Rating: 4/10
Aubrey Plaza is pretty funny on “Parks and Recreation”. I wanted to see this movie for awhile but now i’m not so sure. Though this does not relate to this article, I found “East is East” on Netflix and I will watch it soon. I know you give that movie high reviews and you did write an awesome review on it for my website :)!
Hope you have been doing well Simon!!
Yes, I have been doing well, a few challenges here and there, but otherwise splendid! 😀 What about you? I hope you enjoy East is East, let me know what you think after watching it! Like I already said, it was an honor to write for you! 😀
See, I didn’t know that she is in Parks and Recreation. She seems like a decent actress, but the movie wasn’t in my opinion. This is one of those movies you turn back as an actor one day and think, “Damn, did I really do that?” LoL
LOL about Aubrey Plaza! I’m glad life is going well for you too! Sorry I am getting back to you so late, I came back awhile back from New Mexico! I was on vacation! I have been catching up on your entries and I am impressed with your following, Great job!!!
Oh, why, thank you! 😀 I have been really busy, too, which is why it hard for me to catch up on everything. I am writing a book and that takes up a lot of time. My laptop broke and I am doomed to write at home on my desktop, where it is hard to get inspiration from sometimes, since it is just too relaxing! 😀 How was New Mexico?
It’s so cool that you are writing a book! I am sure it will be a best seller!! I know what you mean about blogging at home. I do my best blogging at Panera or Starbucks! New Mexico was amazing!! I visited Roswell and loved how the area was a lot like the show 🙂
Thank you, that is so sweet of you. I hope I will have it finished soon. Right now a lot of characters get a back story! Oh wow, really? That sounds so exciting. I wanna go, too one day!
