Isekube Now I usually hate dramedy because they often reflect the ineptitude of the people trying to write a comedy and ending up exploiting our over appreciating drama culture, but I really loved this movie. This is a black satire about a guy teaming up with a teen on a killing spree trying to rid society of the people they find appalling. The first reason I liked it is because the monologues don't feel forced and are probably the best parts of the movie. The second reason is that it's tone is not preachy and the movie has a few self referential moments where it is aware of how ridiculously deranged these characters are. The most surprising part for me was the third act, I clearly did not see it coming because the characters were not in any way near killing people on that big of a scale and it was really thirst quenching. I hated reality TV shows and the people on it since I was an early teen and seeing my fantasies come alive on the screen was deeply satisfying.
OneEightNine Media Ultimately a very forgettable film. I watched it recently before remembering about halfway through it that I already watched it back in 2011 - that is never a good sign. Anyway the film starts off well enough with well written dialogue and a familiar but entertaining plot. Then the film is nothing but dead space and filler up into the end, more or less. You would be better off skipping this.
jadflack-22130 This black, black comedy hits home right from the start and shows what a cruel and uncaring and callous world this has become, mainly through the mindless drivel shown on t.v. Joel Murray is very good in the main role as a dying man who just wants people to be nice and respectful to others. Film is similar in theme to " Falling Down" but is even better.Director Bobcat Goldthwait shows he is better behind the camera than he is in front of it. Manages some rather moving and touching moments among the pathos and it makes you think at times. Film loses it's way a little in the later stages but it does enough to make it a good film, not for all tastes though.
Leofwine_draca God Bless America is a violent black comedy mixed with a satire of modern-day life in America, directed and written by that annoyingly squeaky-voiced guy from the POLICE ACADEMY films, no less. While this wasn't perhaps as good as I was hoping for - it's a little too crude, and perhaps not as clever as it thinks it is - it's hard to resist a film that successfully lampoons the current state of America (and the western world in general). It also feels very similar to the superhero spoof, SUPER.Joel Murray gives a sympathetic turn as a guy who's reached the end of his tether, although he's no Michael Douglas in FALLING DOWN. I did like Tara Lynne Barr's fresh-faced role as the girl who ends up joining with him. There's a lot of extreme violence here, but it's less impressive than you'd expect and becomes a little repetitive. The put-downs aimed at various celebrity figures and institutions and the various references for genre fans are far better and keep the film moving along until the inevitable - and somewhat predictable - climax.
