Finally after 2 weeks, I'm back! I'll start with my review of The Great Buck Howard starring one of my favorite actors, John Malkovich.
The Great Buck Howard - A few weeks ago I had the pleasure of viewing one of my favorite actors, John Malkovich, play Buck Howard! This movie also stars, Colin Hanks, the son of Tom Hanks who makes an appearance in this movie (he also produced it). Colin Hanks gives a fine performance, but the real star of the film is Malkovich who gives an outstanding performance as a has-been mentalist still hanging on to the little ounce of fame he still possesses. Malkovich's performance alone is worth the price of admission.
The Great Buck Howard is currently in limited release and available on video on demand and pay-per-view.
I Love You, Man - I liked this movie a lot. First of all, the cast is amazing, Paul Rudd, Jason Siegel, and J.K. Simmons are all favorites of mine. The movie is not as funny as Forgetting Sarah Marshall, but not many things are. Surprisingly, Apatow is not involved with the movie. The screenplay is very good, it is written by John Hamburg (who also directed) who also wrote Meet the Parents. In all, none of the performances were as good as the ones in Buck Howard, but it defiantly scores more laughs.
