One would have thought that following the box office success of Wedding Crashers, Vince Vaughn and Owen Wilson would have teamed up again sooner in an effort to ride on top of that momentum. Especially given that instead of doing a redundant sequel to a film, they have instead come up with a new premise […]

There was a time when a new comedy starring Jack Black, Steve Martin, and Owen Wilson would’ve been, well, kind of a big deal. Sadly, those days seem to have passed. Somewhere in between Gulliver’s Travels, The Pink Panther 2, and Drillbit Taylor, these formerly reliable comic actors stopped drawing massive crowds and started churning […]

The summers of 2010 and 2011 have provided me with two films that, on the surface, have very little in common with one another; however, after some careful consideration, I have found many intriguing similarities between the two. I am speaking of 2010’s Inception, written and directed by Christopher Nolan, and 2011’s Midnight in Paris, […]

To me, 2011 was a pretty unusual year. I say that because I found there to be an unusual amount of great films that came out in both the realm of mainstream feature films and the realm of art house and independent features. This year, like any year, had its share of duds as well, […]

So the summer movie season has come to an end, but that does not mean us here at Why So Blu can’t have one last hurrah. With such an assortment of different films that came out this past summer (a particularly crowded one, which benefited from having a lot of good crowd pleasers to offer), […]

Last year I made the incorrect assumption of thinking Toy Story 3 would be Pixar’s way of easing back into simple comedy territory, after delving into more complex emotional territory with Up and Wall-E. I was wrong, as Toy Story 3 not only turned out to be a powerhouse adventure/comedy, it also managed to pack […]

It’s been a while since we reviewed a dye-in-the-wool raunchy comedy here at Why So Blu. Hall Pass is the latest comedy film by The Farrelly Brothers starring Owen Wilson and Jason Sudeikis. This is not just Hall Pass, though. This is Hall Pass: ENLARGED EDITION. Will the Blu-ray promise to be…enlarged? Okay, I feel […]

There is a great, classic scene in Woody Allen’s Annie Hall, which has Allen’s character literally pull philosopher/literary critic Marshall McLuhan onto the frame, in order to have him directly tell another character why he is misinformed in his opinions, giving Allen the ultimate form of satisfaction. In Allen’s latest film, Midnight in Paris, the […]

This is a movie about dorks. The characters here are a couple of nice guys, who act like nice guys caught saying inappropriate things on many occasions. There is a lot of raunchiness and gag related humor mixed with some sentiment and a touch of heart. Unfortunately, the film does not hit the humor marks […]

I don’t know why I wanted to see Little Fockers more, for my love of the first two films or that the lovely Jessica Alba would be partaking in the newest entry of Meet The Parents? However, I will say this. I have become less and less enchanted with Mrs. Alba every time she opens […]

How Do You Know? — Wow! Look at the lineup… America’s Sweetheart Reese Witherspoon, funny man Paul Rudd, popular actor Owen Wilson, screen legend Jack Nicholson and TV and movie mogul James L. Brooks involved in this one… What could go wrong? Anything and everything… This 2-hour rom-com is neither romantic, nor comedic… It’s ANEMIC! […]

After seeing the trailer for Night at the Museum in theaters a few years ago, I said to myself, “wow, this looks completely, and utterly unwatchable.” I was prepared to go my whole life without giving this film a chance. Then of course, I became a film reviewer, and I had to play the part […]
