Noises Off... (1992)
I came for the actors, I stayed for the undies
There are some usually fine actors in this movie, but whatever talent there is it's totally wasted in this directorial mess. I watched it twice, and still couldn't tell you what the heck went on there. Why twice, if it's that bad? Well, we do get 95 minutes of Nicolette Sheridan running up and down stairs, spinning around, crawling on all fours etc. - all while wearing loverly white undies and black heels. I didn't laugh much (well, not at all), but boy was I smiling!
Large (2001)
Pretty awful - yet funny
Think "Dude, Mary ate my Pie" as directed by Tom Green - only without the good taste (and with bad teeth all round). And yet - the humor harks back more to Basil Fawlty than to Jack Tripper, the amazonian babes would do Benny Hill proud, and the dog leaves "There's something about Mary"'s pooch wallowing in the dust. As late-night video rental/cable fare - 8 out of 10.
Peep Show (1999)
Funny, yet... sad
Well, it's hilarious, but... Thinking about all those relationships I might have saved had I seen it 20 years ago... Sad, sad...
