22 Jump Street (2014)

Hilarious and well-written, 10/10!

[10/10 · 22 June 2014]

A big fan of the first movie, I wasn't sure what to expect from 22 Jump Street. I knew it would be funny but I figured it wouldn't have a plot to compete with 21 Jump Street (movie). I was so blown away by how great this movie turned out to be! My friends and I all laughed through the entire movie, it was so funny and I loved the plot, characters, acting, writing, the whole nine yards. I think some of the humor is "smart humor". For example, some jokes were pegged at actors in the movie and at the original TV show 21 Jump Street. If you were watching the movie and didn't know much about the actors or the show, some jokes may have gone right over your head which would be unfortunate because they were hilarious. This was so absolutely funny I will definitely go see it a second time and again once it's out on DVD. I was so impressed by everything in this movie, down to the choices in music. I would definitely recommend it if you enjoyed 21 Jump Street or any funny movie ever.

Kevin (2011)

Excellent, Moving Documentary

[10/10 · 26 May 2014]

Recently I've become a huge fan of the Duplass brothers and usually I'm not a documentary person but having only read the Netflix summary, I gave this a shot. A song by Kevin is played during the opening credits and I was already looking up the title of the song at that point.

Kevin is an inspirational soul and if you know anything about the Duplass brothers' other films, you'll easily see why they were drawn to Kevin. Not to spoil anything, he's just a very moving person. Very happy. Very talented. His story if intriguing and I was very interested to see inside his mind.

I would most definitely recommend this quick documentary to anyone interested in music, any Duplass fans, or anyone just looking for a nice short, meaningful watch.
