It was bound to happen at some point. This weekend we have the first real disappointment of the summer:
Land of the Lost. I had very low expectations for this film to begin with, so the fact that it didn't even meet those is awfully sad.
Land of the Lost was, well, lost. It was mediocre at best and just felt completely uninspired. I've never seen the popular TV series on which it's based, but I have a feeling this is a very poor adaptation. The original series was a Saturday morning kid's show and I'm sure the show was not filled with unnecessary crudeness and cursing like the movie was. The film would have been better had it been a PG family friendly adventure.
I'll cut right to the chase,
The Hangover is by far the funniest film of the year thus far. Following these three guys around Vegas as they try to remember what happened last night and find their missing friend is incredibly entertaining and fun. Go see
The Hangover, you won't be disappointed.
In
Rudo y Cursi, Diego Luna and Gael Garcia Bernal (yea!) portray soccer playing brothers who make it to the big time, only to see their dreams crumble around them once they become successful. This is a good, solid picture. It's really held together by the nice performances of both Luna and Bernal.
