BoardChiri Bad Acting and worse Bad Screenplay

Afouotos Although it has its amusing moments, in eneral the plot does not convince.

Ketrivie It isn't all that great, actually. Really cheesy and very predicable of how certain scenes are gonna turn play out. However, I guess that's the charm of it all, because I would consider this one of my guilty pleasures.

Geraldine The story, direction, characters, and writing/dialogue is akin to taking a tranquilizer shot to the neck, but everything else was so well done.

jramza-1 After 1.5 hours, I laughed only 1.5 times (a slight smirk = 0.5). I love Brendan Fraser and nearly every one of his movies (both comedy and drama), but this was beyond doubt his worst movie, and just a bad movie overall. The acting was stilted, the screenplay was underdeveloped, with very poorly written dialogue. The concept has been done many times before (and never so poorly). I'm not exaggerating. The humor was not simply crass and juvenile, but, because the actors clearly appreciated this, they could not even deliver it well. Take my word for it, believe me, and avoid this film; Doubt me, and at least give my review a thumbs up - to warn others.And, for the record, I don't consider it comedy to have a 21-year-old woman, a senior in college, pursuing a 13-year-old child for sexual intercourse, to conceive genius progeny. My god, the boy is 13.

zif ofoz This - "I want to be a funny movie" - almost gets there, but falls short. It's got good script, plot, photography, settings, characters, but it stumbles along and I think the trouble is with the editing. The entire movie is choppy bits of story and few scenes flow well into the next. I'm at a loss to clearly express my feelings; just as this movie is at a loss to be really good.Wolff and Fraser make a good team but the experience of Fraser's background in acting make Wolff appear a bit amateurish (but that is understandable by his age) it just was another problem for me to like the end product.It's fun enough to rent.

rooag I actually liked this movie, although I can see why others wouldn't. When I started watching, I thought it was a Brendan Frasier film, but it is most definitely not. Although he does a fine job in it, he is most definitely in a supporting role here. The acting was all around pretty good and the jokes, although a bit obscure, were quite good. It seemed to be fairly well written, and definitely had a certain " feel " to it from beginning to end. My suggestion would be that if you enjoy Wes Anderson films, you'll probably enjoy this. It's not quite as Quirky and odd, but definitely has the same vibe to it. Would definitely recommend for a rental.

acmusmand I'm eagerly awaiting the sequel! One of the most beautifully written movies I've ever seen, Hairbrained is funny and emotional with a cool vibe through and through. It is amazingly acted, the music is terrific and I've never felt better leaving a movie theater. It is everything a movie should be -- funny, emotional, and leaves the theater goer wishing there was more. Adam Weirzbianski deservingly received Best Screenplay at the Brooklyn Film Festival, and Alex Wolff received Best Actor. Brendan Fraser and Parker Posey are incredible in this movie. I cannot explain how every person should see this movie -- a great tale of friendship and love. This is a DO NOT MISS! I wish all movies were this fun and quirky.
