JENNIFER'S BODY
I had never seen this film before last night because it was a open friday, gone Saturday type of release. I happen to be a Sunday matinee type of machine. So what a delight for me when I saw it was on at 11 PM in an apartment where I happened to be alone to myself. Now you give me Amanda Seyfried and i'll raise you a Meryl Streep because that's how I role (Mamma Mia - ultimate classic especially with Pierce Brosnan sultry voice). But then if you add a Megan Fox then I'm in trouble until, Hello, how you doing Mathew Fox! Double Whammy! Not so impressed. The kicker however was Adam Brody who happen to have some of the finest acting chops I've seen since Channing Tatum was a tour de force in GI Joe: Rise of the Cobra. I decided to to watch.
What I liked:
J.K. Simmons - The man was rocking hair better then Beverly D'Angelo in Hair (Made you look). There has never been a bad movie with J.K. Simmons and that's a fact. He really went method in this one like he did when he out peppered Barry Pepper in 3: The Dale Earnhardt Story as Dale's daddy. Do you realize how hard it is to out pepper pepper? Barry Pepper can't even out pepper himself when Ned Pepper took over his body in True Grit. Too Pepper or too Reelz Channel? Then add a little salt and wow, that's a hell of a formula that maybe only some Marley Shelton's Sugar and Spice can out do. What I'm trying to say is J.K Simmons is the inside man's Omar aka I jus made an OZ ref!
Amanda Seyfried playing the ugly girl: I mean what a fine performance by such a beautiful woman. The way she put those glasses on and then wore her hair back made her hideous. So hideous that even Captain America would turn Dalton Trumbo on her ass (That's as too obscure as you get!). And the way she lost her virginity to the nerdy six packed kid felt so realistic. She felt no pain at all as he jumped right into action but right before she started hallucinating dead people. Now that's movie magic!
What I didn't like:
No Boobies: No boobies
Consensus: Must see movie. I actually only watched the first hour and a bit because it was late and I had done what I intended to do when I turned it on in the first place.....Get to the second kill scene of course. For all you sick minded people, let me remind you that mothers read this site. I am definitely one machine that will not get myself involved in mommy issues like an Albert Brook's over written somewhat funny but overall annoying film. Though, I still love you Debbie even if your daughter turned into a man.
That's how it's done Ronimal. Read and learn, short and sweet. Though the players have changed, the game is still the same. Reverse Grubes!
