Chuckles 53, Laughs 22, Belly Laughs 10
Notes: I'd seen the SNL spoof of this movie with Jim Carrey but somehow, I'd never gotten around to watching this actual movie itself. This stars Will Farrell and Chris Kattan as two idiot brothers who are trying to make it into the "cool nightclub" to score with girls. The problem is they have a hard time making it in. I LOVE the dance floor scenes, the beepers and I'd totally forgotten about Richard Greico who apparently was still a big deal in 1998. Would I watch this movie again? Yes.

Chuckles 46, Laughs 12, Belly Laughs 2
Notes: What's really strange is that I thought I'd watched all of the Shrek movies but apparently, I'd missed this one somehow. This film finds Fiona's father dying, he'd like Shrek to rule the kingdom but Shrek tries to persuade an alternate (Alfred) who is a distant relative (?) to rule instead. Fiona is pregnant and she's reluctant to tell Shrek who seems against having kids and (Prince) Charming makes a run for the thrown by taking the "bad guys" from all of the story tales and rallying them to his side. I did chuckle a lot but this wasn't my favorite of of the Shrek series and although #4 (Shrek Forever After) didn't score quite so many points, I liked it more but #1 is still the best for me. Would I watch it again? No. Chuckles 46, Laughs 15, Belly Laughs 8
Notes: I'd almost forgotten about this comedy from the 90's but it's worth remembering. Jim Carrey is incredible and the movie debut of Cameron Diaz - SMOKIN'! Like seriously, she looks amazing and it's no wonder that Jim Carrey's eyes pop out like the cartoon wolf and he makes that antique car horn sound of "ah-oohh-ga!" Shy, mild-mannered Jim Carrey comes across a Norse mask of mischief that brings out the inner you when you put it on. His character loves cartoons and when he puts on the mask, he turns into a super amazing cartooney version of himself who is confident, playful and heroic. Even though it didn't land on the top 100 movies of all time, this is one of my all time favorite roles for Jim Carrey. Would I watch it again? Yes. |
AuthorIf there' s one thing I've always been good at, it's laughing and identifying with a remarkable degree of accuracy, the source of that laughter. For I am SKOL; (The) Scandinavian King Of Laughter!
