Walk Hard? Run Fast.

My big outing this past weekend was to the movies with Rena. Looking for some Talladega Nights-style laughs, we decided to see Walk Hard: The Dewey Cox Story. I don’t even know where to begin in telling you how not funny this movie was. The creative team seemed to write only two jokes and then just repeated them ad nauseum. First joke: Jews run the entertainment industry! What a knee-slapper. Second joke: John C. Reilly (43 years old according to IMDB) plays a fourteen-year old high school student. See it’s funny because he’s so old! You know what? He also plays a 15 year old high school drop out. And a 16 year old...zzzz.....

Walk Hard? We walked hard all right. We walked hard right out of the theatre about half way through the movie.

John C. Reilly is actually nominated for a Golden Globe for Best Actor/Music or Comedy. I don't know what to say about that.
