It's A Little Funny

Rating: 9/10 (2 May 2004)

Almost the polar opposite of Walking Tall, this was a movie that at nearly 2 hours, could have easily had 20 minutes knocked off of it without hurting the plot at all. I found the movie good in a lot of ways, but like many others, felt it dragged at a near stop pace a few times.
Elisha Cuthbert is smokin', but that's not enough to get a good rating, I actually felt that Emile Hirsch showed talent in the movie, and could be a breakout star in the next few years.
The plot was fine, if not a take on Risky Buisness, but everything's a remake these days, so that's fine.
The thing that got me hooked personally, is that Hirsch looks like you're normal kid next door really, and that's why it made you feel for him, when everything went wrong (at least at the beginning, when things were still somewhat realistic)
Anyways, This movie gets the Old B-... It was good, but not Great, although I wouldn't be as harsh with it as far as being a box office bomb. It did respectable compared to other Teen Movies so far this year (Eurotrip, Perfect Score)
