very fun and very pretty, although like the first i found it inexplicably NOT engaging. also? the evil elf prince or whatever looks just like Tom Cruise in Interview w/the Vampire. i’m just sayin’.
kind of lame and a bit slow, but both Seth Rogen and James Franco are so fucking ADORABLE that the whole thing just works.
like an episode of X-Files, if it had been an HBO show instead of Fox. terrific performances across the board, nothing flashy or obnoxious. plot and pacing is more like a crime drama, like “Gone Baby Gone” than typical X-Files, which really worked for me. i didn’t realize how much i missed these characters until i saw them again.
this movie is so weird and sweet and troubling. it made my heart grow three sizes.
i am really hit or miss with Adam Sandler, but this one fucking well HIT. hi-lar-ious. Kathy Bates and Henry Winkler rock my world.
dude, i saw this movie 4 times in the theater. just couldn’t get enough of it. LOVED IT.
i was REEEEAAALLY into this movie as a tween. probably helps that i identified with Ally Sheedy after seeing The Breakfast Club, and i was in an Asimov robot phase back in the day. i kind of don’t want to watch it again just in case my rosy memory gets tarnished.
pretty funny and zippy, although it all kind of falls through your hands by the end like spaghetti. i could spend all day looking at Tilda Swinton with makeup on. also, Brad Pitt has really excellent comic timing, turns out!
sweet and gorgeous and unselfconscious; Lee Pace is completely dreamy and the little girl is spectacular (never precocious). i am confused on how one could NOT love this movie. perfect and beautiful.
