So Mike it's been a while since your last glorious post was posted. So I thought I'd better get on it for our two loyal followers.
I have been racking my brain for HOURS, no MINUTES trying to think of something to write about. Finally I decided to resort back to one of our favorite segments of the old radio show.... Our "Ho Hum" Movie reviews.
Last night my wife and I sat down at around 10:30, well after we had put my son down, to enjoy the Will Ferrell/ Mark Wahlberg comedy "The Other Guys".
In my opinion this is Ferrell's best work. He steps out of his usual self-absorbed wannabe-athlete character (Talladega Nights, Semipro, Blades of Glory) to play a complete nerd. And he does so with hilarity. I'm not a Ferrell fan, but I enjoyed him in this one.
I was disappointed however in Wahlberg. He was too over the top and not that funny. But he kept my wife interested. HI OH!
I should erase that last part...
Instead I'll say "but his hair kept me interested". He really does have nice hair. HI OH!
The show stealer I would say was Steve Coogan (Night at the Museum), who played the English business man who Ferrell and Wahlberg are convinced is a criminal. So watch for him. I guess.
I give this one a solid "Eh". Meaning I would see it again, mostly because I kind of have to. Jack woke up at about 11 and wouldn't go back to bed so between the crying, holding, and looking for a binki in the dark, I missed big chunks of dialogue. It may have actually been a terrible movie, or the most hilarious thing I would have ever seen, and because it was a red box I may never know.
