So Saturday,I went out during the early afternoon and drank.Yeah sounds kinda like an alcoholic,but fuck it,you wouldn't believe how much cheaper drinking your face off during the day on a Saturday is,compared to drinking your face off on a Saturday night. Its great!! Plus you get home and still can get plenty of sleep,unlike when you go out on a Saturday night and party like a rock star and end up at frickin IHOP or going through Taco Bell or whatever at 2 am,then not falling asleep when you finally get home till 2 hours after that,then you sleep like ass,because of all the damn alcohol and crap that you just ate.....that sucks.Ok,plus I'm a bit too old to be hanging out trying to do body shots off some co eds.....Anyways thumbs up on Saturday afternoon drinking!!
Anyways,the reason I brought this up,is that after drinking for a few hours,I went and saw "Shes Out Of My League",I actually enjoyed the movie a lot.Now keep in mind,that this was after the drinking so maybe my opinion might change when viewing it sober.But I wasn't that drunk...Not compared to the night I went and saw Rob Zombies "Halloween II" when I had been drinking for damn near 5 hours and tossing in tequila and shit...geez,that night by the last twenty minutes of that I was seeing six Micheal Myers's on one screen (then again I actually liked that damn film when I saw it that night...sigh).
But,I actually did enjoy this film,so I don't think it was just due to alcohol. The movie is very Apatowish,from the story,about a skinny non motivated little loser played by an actual Apatow alum in Jay "If They Ever Make Seinfeld The Motion Picture...I'm So Playing Kramer" Baruchel,he has been a supporting character in "Knocked Up" and was also in "Tropic Thunder".His character is just getting through life working with some friends,doing airport security.Basically if his character was about 100 lbs. heavier this would probably have been a Seth Rogen character.
Anyhow while working at the airport he ends up finding the cell for insanely,ridiculously,super stupid hot Alice "Hot Damn!!" Eve. Anyways,through only the magic of cinema,they start to date.I mean this makes the Katherine "Bitch Almighty" Heigles pairing with Seth " I Actually Have Gotten To Act Like I Was Humping Not Only Katherine Heigle,But Also Frickin Elizabeth Banks In Two Seperate Films!! Man I Love Making Movies!!" Rogen in "Knocked Up" seem realistic as can be.
So yeah the setup is a bit flimsy.But between some funny moments between Baruchels character and his buds,led by T.J. "I'm Playing The Jason Lee Part" Miller are really pretty damn funny.Actually Miller was probably the funniest part in the film. Look,if you have seen "Knocked Up" or "Superbad" the comedy in this film,is along those lines.It is a pretty funny movie.Dont go in thinking it'll be AS funny as those two....especially "Superbad",but it is a pretty enjoyable film.
Look if you want to go to the movies this weekend,and "Hot Tub Time Machine" isn't playing yet,and you don't feel like seeing the seemingly 18th fucking 3D film released within the last month,and you don't want to see Bourne Supre...I mean "The Green Zone" or some bullshit chick flick starring whats his face from Twilight (God that just almost made me puke just typing that),then check out "Shes Out Of My League". Its a good flick for a Saturday matinee in the middle of March.
