And on with the show...

I'll be taking further movie reviews (100 words or otherwise) to www.hyperwest.net. Or possibly www.jonyang.org. How many movies can I keep watching? I hope a lot. I'm still out to convert people on the beauty of watching movies by themselves in theatres. No distractions, more popcorn, more Slurpee. Dig it.

in the land of women (2007)

Usually romantic comedy movies like this have the problem of the actors being way too old for their roles. Adam Brody has the opposite problem; he looks like he blends in with the high schoolers around him and it's tough to picture him as a 26-year old (even if he actually is). The movie also compounds the problem by not giving us enough motivation behind anything Brody's character does. Despite that, the movie has a few "nice/interesting/cute" moments and even with the family of blondes to carry the show, the film just suffers from a lack of depth.
