It Had to Be You (2000)
Father says what?
This movie gives chick flicks a bad name. The dialogue is miserable. I offer as evidence....the story about crawling through vents and taking pictures Ha ha (was that supposed to be cute?) the expert way he approached an adolescent with "I bet you have a lot of friends at school." what if the answer is no? The secondary story line with the friends really strains credulity and while all the characters are somewhat attractive there is simply no life there. Even the parts that are supposed to be deep philosophical points (the painter and his navy story) ultimately go nowhere, which is the theme of this film, you keep waiting for something of consequence to happen.
I'm sorry if you are thinking about renting this, keep looking unless you're looking for a comedy ala Plan 9 from Outer Space
Race with the Devil (1975)
okay acting....terrible story
From a historical perspective, this is an example of the perfect Drive Inn flick. The acting is okay, the action is dated (this is the 70's)and the storyline doesn't have to make sense. As you enjoy this cinematic adventure (thank you Dane Cook) ask yourself these questions
1. Under the circumstances why buy one gun? 2. Just how far away is Fisher anyway? 3. what kind of communication network must those satanists have that allows them to transcend time and space? 4. Would you stop driving for anything? 5. Are there any normal people in that state at all?
You may enjoy this film as a slice of 70's culture and when you consider that that time was a period of social change and uncertainty does the ending make more sense? Hey don't lay your morality on me man.
