Corky Romano (2001)

 

This was really dumb. I'm a sucker for SNL movies. There were a few funny parts, but most of the time I was hiding my head in shame at how idiotic it was. 

Rating: F+

Bubble Boy (2001)

A lot of fun. Really funny and one of those road movies that you somehow get sucked into, even if the premise is bad, like Joe Dirt. 

Rating: C+

The Devil’s Rejects (2005)

For the record, I thought the first one sucked. House of A Thousand Corpses was a huge let down. Rejects is much better, but that makes it just average. It's overly violent and gory where it needn't be. The improvements from the first film come by way of acting and plot. This film allows for some good character development from the main villains. In the first film, you had no idea as to why things were happening on screen.

Devil's Rejects has been compared to Natural Born Killers, which is a far better movie story-wise. The camera work and editing has been greatly improved upon since Zombie's first flick. I think if he focuses more on telling a good story and less on being a sadistic whack-job, his next film will be even better.

Rating: C

Ghost World (2001)

Not Another Teen Movie should have been the title of *this* movie, because it's truly anything but your average teen flick. Well written, funny, and full of characters you can relate to - this is a must see. Worth watching for the "White Trash Dude" alone.

Rating: A-
