Aqua Teen Hunger Force Colon Movie Film for Theaters

Rating: Rated R for crude and sexual humor, violent images and language.

Who's in it: Um, no know one you'd know, but if you're interested, check out the IMDb.com page: Aqua Teen Hunger Force Colon Movie Film for Theaters

Who Directed it: The guys who directed the series.

Plot: Um, there isn't one. Really. This the best movie I've ever seen that doesn't have a plot. There's kind of a convoluted plot involving the origin of the main characters (Fry, Shake and Meatwad...yes those are their names, yes that is what they are), but, it is SO completely convoluted, confusing, and, honestly, meant to confuse the crap out of you and not make any sense what so ever, it's just easier to say that it doesn't have a plot...'cus it really doesn't.

Moral teaching: Um...uh..., don't, ... don't drink a white substance which your "friend" hands you and tells you it's milk........when it's really mayonnaise? Or, uh, don't... don't let that guy who is a robot chicken (no, not like the series) and claims he's the ghost of Christmas past (no, this movie has nothing to do with Christmas) start telling a story because he won't ever stop. Or, uh, um,... don't ever, ever, under any circumstances, listen to a talking shake. But, honestly, probably, but best moral teaching this movie has to offer, it "Don't watch this movie." 'Cus this movie is about as a-moral as they come.

Content: Well, it is animated, so, it's not as bad as other live action movies where they feature full frontal tooth brushing (ex: Stranger than Fiction). But, it IS offensive. "Crude sexual humor": check, offensive language including F-words: check. Violent images including but not limited to a persons entire muscle structure being ripped out: check. (Don't see this movie).

Rollerskates: I can't, in good conscience, give this movie above a 3 out of 5 Rollerskates. I really want to, since I'm a big fan of the serious. This movie held true to the series plot devices and ridiculous, random and funny duologue, etc. It gets a good solid 4.5 out of 5 Skates for content.

(ps: the best part of this movie isn't even in the movie, but the very odd, weird, awesome opening explaining what not to do. Which is interesting because one of the things it says not to do is record the movie from the movie theater,...which is what this video is)

Hot Fuzz

Rating: Rated R for violent content including some graphic images, and language.


Who's in it: Simon Pegg (Mission: Impossible III, Land of the Dead, Shaun of the Dead), Martin Freeman (The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy, Shaun of the Dead) Bill Nighy (Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man's Chest, Underworld: Evolution, The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy, Shaun of the Dead, Underworl, Love Actually) and, of course, Nick Frost (Shaun of the Dead).
Okay, so, as you may have noticed, many of these people were all in Shaun of the Dead. Well, that is because most of these people are friends how have worked on things before, namely a show called "Spaced", which was a hit, 14 episode comedy. What you might not have noticed if you clicked on any of the links above, was that Simon Pegg (who plays the main character) also co-wrote Hot Fuzz and Shaun of the Dead along with Edgar Wright, who also wrote episodes (perhaps all) for "Spaced."

Plot: Sergeant Nicholas Angel (Played by Simon Pegg) is the best police officer in London, but makes the whole force look bad since is he so good. So, they make him leave. They transfer him out to a little town in the country, Sandford, where nothing ever happens. However, of course, something does happen. People starrt dieing, but everyone assumes they are accidents, but not Angel, he thinks there is something sinister behind the deaths. However, he's not the detective, he's just a good cop, and so, his hands are tied. But the deaths don't stop, and he is convinced there is something going on int he little village of Sandford, but can't convince anyone of it.

Moral teaching: Stand up for what you know is right, even if everyone else doesn't agree with you. The main character doesn't believe in God, though he is open to it, but he still knows what's right. Even family can be wrong, and you have to stand up to them if they are.

Content: This movie is violent, plain and simple. Lots of gun fights (towards the end), and blood and gore through out. If you're at all squeemish, don't see it. But I will say this, although it is bloody, it is still a comedy, so the blood and gore, in my opinion, has less of a negative effect on one's mood compared to a horror flick with tons of blood, gore, and torture (whic this film has none). Also, there is a scene in which a woman wears novilty breasts over her police uniform.

Rollerskates: I give this good action flick a 5 out o 5 rollerskates. And a good solid 4 out of 5 for offensive content.

Blades of Glory

Rating:
Rated PG-13 for crude and sexual humor, language, a comic violent image and some drug references.

Who's in it:
I just saw Blades of Glory and, honestly, not that impressed. It was funny don't get me wrong. It was good to see Jon Heder, (Napoleon Dynamite) Will Ferrell (duh) Will Arnet (Arrested Development, Let's go to Prison) and Amy Poehler (Saturday Night Live) and Jenna Fischer (The Office) in a movie together. All were good and funny. Also, Luke Wilson has a good cameo as a Christian sex addict counselor.


Plot:
But, seriously, it wasn't as good as I was hoping. The whole basis for the comedy in the movie was making the audience uncomfortable with the two leads (Header and Ferrell) being way too close to each other while skating. It makes "sense" in the movie because of the plot, which is both Header and Ferrell were banned from Olympic competition skating, but through a loop hole they both agree to skate together in a different division: pairs. The reason this wasn't such a good thing, in my opinion, was simply making fun of gays. Not them specifically, but in somewhat of a round about way.

Content:
Also, I was disappointed with the amount of sexual content. There was a scene in which Will Ferrell, who not only plays a professional skater, but also a sex addict, grabs Jenna Fischer's breasts for a prolonged period. The movie does make a point in addressing his struggle and at the end he realizes this fault, but I also think "they" (the writers and others who made the movie) make fun of addictions to sex a bit too much.

Moral teaching:
As far as any point or moral to this movie goes, I guess I would have to say that sometimes your biggest enemy can be your strongest friend if you get over your B.S. But, honestly, I think this movie was just a reason to see Jon Header and Will Ferrell in spandex with their faces close to each other's crotches.

Rollerskates:
I'll give Blades of Glory 3.5 Rolleskates out of 5 for movie quality, and 2 out of 5 for offensive content. I'd say this is a rental if you're a hard core Ferrell fan.
