  Movie Watch: Watchin' Movies

THE KING OF KONG: A little too obviously biased in Wiebe’s favor, but still a fine documentary. I still believe that Donkey Kong is too hard to be fun or good, though. Give me Popeye any day of the week.

YEAR OF THE DOG: Good until the typical Mike White ridiculousness pops up near the end. I don’t know why a guy who’s genuinely good at subtle character development feels the need to extrapolate shit to an unbelievable extent. It happened with Chuck and Buck and it happens again here. Anyway, it’s a good movie up until that point. Not quite as heart-breaking as I was expecting, but I still made sure Oscar was on or near my lap for the entirety. Maybe the second or third time I’ve been able to tolerate Molly Shannon at all.

THE HOAX: I was optimistic about this one. It done let me down. It’s far too impressed with itself, and not nearly as clever or important as it wants us to think it is. Gere and Molina are both pretty good, but the rest of the movie fails them, especially when you follow up and see how significantly they monkeyed with the real situation.

SUPERBAD: Yep, still hilarious. Moving on…

VERTIGO: Best dream sequence ever.
