Fantastic

Rating: 9/10 (27 August 2005)

I'll make this short and sweet - this movie was extremely well scripted, and just as well acted. I think Jon Stewart said it best when he interviewed Steve Carrel about this movie and said: "You were on the Daily Show for several years, and you were not good. This movie was amazing. What happened to you?" My stomach hurts from laughing out loud so much. There were countless quotes and statements that I wish I could remember because they seem like the kind of natural expression that needs to become part of my day to day repertoire. I was really watching the movie and thinking to myself, man, how did I not think of saying that when situation X presented itself to me. Definitely seeing it again. Only thing bad was the first 10 minutes - but I have a suspicion this was deliberate to make you think the rest would suck too, or at least ease you into laughing your brains out. 9/10.
