Bottom Line Up Front: Lame I rented this romcom for the wife and myself the other night. I like J.K. Simmons and Harry Connick, Jr. and I can tolerate Renee "I look like I just smelled a fart" Zelwegger enough to get through a movie so I thought it would be half-ass enjoyable. I wasn't "suck out loud" bad like (insert any Chris Elliott movie here) but it was hardly worth the $1.11 I paid the Redbox to get it for the evening. If you've seen "The Holiday" (Cameron Diaz/Jude Law), then you've seen this movie. If you've seen neither, just catch a Hugh Grant re-run on USA and call it a night.
Two things: One: Is your sales tax actually 12 cents on the dollar, or are RedBox movies priced higher than 99 cents? Two: I rather enjoyed the "Cabin Boy" Chris Elliot movie. Especially David Letterman's "Would you like to buy a monkey?" cameo (which is uncredited, too!) It was a corny movie and I think Elliot nailed the role. :biggrin:
Quite a slip, no? Where was my head? I mean, what was I thinking? 1) I think it's a dollar, but whatever all the fees are, I think $1.11 is the amount I got charged. 2) You can have my copy of "Cabin Boy" if I haven't already tossed it. I guess he was ok in "Something About Mary" but "Scary Movie 2" was a turd.
