Osmosis Jones (2001)
8/10
Very imaginative, moments of inspiration
29 September 2001
This was a spasmodically v. funny film. More than that though, it was a very creative film. Watching it was like watching the Simpsons. My eyes were scanning the screen all the time to see how the signs related to the body. I found it very imaginative. There was the NNN, a news network which stood for Neuron News Network I guess? There was the ticker scrolling along the bottom with sports scores with creatively named teams. I can't remember what they were called but they were like the Ectoplasm or whatever. Obviously the Farrelly brothers created a whole other world within the body and they did it very well. I enjoyed the mayor and his attempts to try to keep Bill Murray fat because then he was happy and would be easier to control. It's amazing that one can even politicized the opinions of cells!! This movie had some very funny moments. It wasn't as consistently funny as for exmple Dumb and Dumber or There's Something about Mary, but I think this was a more clever film. I think it was funnier than Me Myself and Irene though. Very smart and sometimes very funny. Overall, I would recommend this film.
