Ruby Sparks

Man makes himself a real-live love doll, and then everything blows up.

Its sorta like Lars and the Real Girl, only not nearly at all as good.

The Trip

Billed as a comedy, "The Trip" does have some big laughs in it: about five minutes' worth, total.

The movie as a whole is pointless & interminable.

The Other Guys

The film that deftly juggles being funnier than could have been expected, sporadically funny, and not all that funny at all.

SamJack & The Rock have too little screentime, Marky Mark is ill-suited in his role, and Doofus is just a drag.

In the Loop

Some people think a "comedy" full of British accents is hilarious, especially with the incongruity of Tony Soprano in there someplace, threatening to crap on someone's desk ("Ha Ha Ha!").

After hanging out through three-quarters of this mess eagerly awaiting the possible last-minute surfacing of a plot, a character to give a damn about, a laugh, a "hmm" moment, or a snippet of dialogue more clever than a string of f-bombs, we chose to be out of the loop.
