One Fine Day - 1996

Grade = B

-Oh shut up, you know you love this movie.

Mr. Joe says: "It's rainy and romantic, just like me"

Zookeeper - 2011

Grade = C (Was an A but on second thought, more of a C, on account of it being a shitty movie)

-I don't care what anyone says, Kevin James is in it, so I give it an "A"  it would have gotten an "A+" if it had Brendan Fraser and Sinbad costarring, but hold it there, that one I'll save for my dreams.

Mr. Joe says: "Animals talk, and Adam Sandler is annoying as shit, but hey, at least we don't have to see his face."

Toy Story 2 - 1999

Grade = A

-Now don't get me wrong Toy Story and Toy Story 3 are amazing, but Toy Story 2 is the best in my opinion.  It has the best villain it introduced the superstars like Jesse! well Jesse is a little annoying but she's good and Buzz needed some loving.  It looks perfect, and the nice thing about this movie is that it moves right along, 1 and 3 do that as well but I get too anxious watching 1 and 3 doesn't have Nedry from Jurassic Park.  If you don't believe me watch all 3 again because you have no life and you will like this one best.  That touch up seen is too good ( I know everybody loves that part but that's alright)

Mr. joe says: "I've resorted to reviewing Pixar movies... that's lame. is it? I don't know. did I do one before?"

The School of Rock - 2003

Grade = A

- Jack Black's best film.  As soon as I left the theater I immediately wanted to see this film again.  And after it came out on DVD I watched that bad boy till it was scratched beyond playability.  It's very rare for a comedy (especially with all the complete shit coming out these days) to be actually funny.   Jack Black was born to be this fat rockstar school teacher,  it has everything you would want really.  It could have gone horribly cheese-fantasy (if you know what I mean) but they pulled it off and I'm sure this bad boy will be considered a classic and will be studied at Harvard Film school by assholes.

Mr. Joe Says: " The kids are great,  Jack Block (I like to say Block instead of Black) was great.  Its just great. yeah.  Im sure you've seen this and agree."

Real Life - 1979

 Grade = B

- I didn't know what this was going to be all about but I sure enjoyed this one Maaa Yeahaaw!  I'm sorry, I don't know why I said that.  Albert Brooks plays himself and he is trying to make a movie about a real regular family and he is really egocentric and it's kind of like a documentary but not, so I guess a Mockumentary but not really that either.  It was great tho and I chuckled my little heart out.  If you like Albert Brooks (like I pretend too, and act like I knew about him since before a month ago) then you will like this one.  If you haven't seen his stuff, don't worry it's ok, but its really good.

Mr. Joe Says: "these reviews are getting a little creepy I feel?"

Father of the Bride - 1991

Grade = C+

- I enjoyed myself as I watched this film (no dirtyness intended)  But you know, there's really a sense of fake plastic and I rented this thinking it was a documentary but boy was I wrong, these are actors! (I didn't really think it was a documentary, what are you? stupid?!)  Well pick this up if you need your heart warmed up.  More intended for "The Classic Rich Family of Losers" you know the type.

-Mr. Joe Says: "We're almost to 200 reviews, I better keep cranking these crack pots out.  Oh and If Steve Martin is in it, your chances are that it will be a great movie, actually on second thought Steve's been in some real shit, (and I'm not talking about Bringing Down the House, that shit was of da hook)

Jurassic Park 3 - 2001

Grade =B

-Clearly the weakest of the 3 films but still is exciting.  If anybody tells you this is there favorite one, they are liars and full of shit.  If you can manage to not compare 3 to Lost World or the original classic and just have fun, you will see that this move is great.  I like that they got Grant back so we had at least one person that we didn't want eaten alive.  I do not like the Spinosaurus or whatever made up shit dinosaur that was.  I don't care if it's real or not, I just took it personally when he takes down T Rex.  Well anyway, if you like the first two this one will fill your dino hunger.

Mr. Joe says: " I want then to make a 4th so incredibly bad, I hope Spielberg is reading this, I'm sure he is.  I'm sure he cares what I think"

What Women Want - 2000

Grade = C-

-What Women Want is what I imagine girls would want out of a movie.  It has a hot beefy Gibson and Helen Hunt.  I feel women like Helen Hunt more then guys?  Do woman think of her as a god? Is this true? oh who cares.  Overall this movie dragged and I was bored as usual.

Mr. Joe says: "did I already review this movie? Oh who cares."

Easy Rider - 1969

Grade = A-

-Now you can easily tell that this film was made by an angry stoned Hopper, but it's ok and the soundtrack alone gives it and A.  I don't understand why I love this movie as much as I do but I'm pretty sure it's the feeling of wanting to be on the road with them and not having to wake up for your shitty job/life.

-Mr. Joe says: "Follow two gay guys on a motorbike trip, sounds good? well yes"

How to Lose Friends and Alienate People - 2008

Grade = C-

-To be fair I fell asleep in the middle of this movie, but to be even more fair, the movie is the one that put me to sleep.  At a glance it looks like this movie could be nothing but great, I mean Megan Fox is in it! and she is amazing right? Well in case you are confused, she isn't that great and I was more interested in Simon Pegg and Jeff Bridges.  To make a long review short.  This movie was weird and not very funny.  I couldn't put my finger on it, I laughed a couple times but I laugh all the time, in fact im laughing right now.

-Mr. Joe says: " Don't watch this one, it isn't worth your time.  Watch Star Wars or build legos or whatever losers do"

Lost in America - 1985

Grade= A

-I love this movie.  Never have I felt so Happy, then Depressed, then so Satisfied with a film other than Shrek 2 (kidding, Shrek and all of the sequels are shit, I hate Shrek)  Albert Brooks plays some guy who is screwed at work and he decides to drop out of this sick and twisted society and hit the road with his wife in a Motor home.  That's all I'll say, you should really watch this (nobody even reads these)

-Mr. Joe Says: " You will laugh and love it, Trust me"

Super 8 - 2011

Grade = B

-Finally there is a movie that is pretty fun to watch, I'm talking about Zookeeper but Super 8 is pretty fun as well.  I didn't really like the Aliens, some of it didn't make sense to me (I must have missed some of the film when I went to the bathroom five times, just kidding) but if you watch it again you will see that you are meant to let it go and enjoy the ride (yeah that sounds right) I was more interested in the movie the kids were making.

Mr. Joe says- "It's a goody, the kids were excellent"

Vanishing Point - 1971

Grade = B-

- Hyped up on Speed, literally. A man is chased by pigs through the desert as he tries to get to San Francisco.  This is a very strange movie but it was pretty good, I think, I don't know... I mean I guess I liked it.

Mr. Joe says: "He just driving and driving. I'm depressed"
