Baby Mama - 1 Beer



Old lady picks old lady to be surrogate mother. I didn't buy this turd for a minute...and I like Fey. The jokes are obvious, though the effort is clearly there. I expected something smarter and edgier, got neither. Too bad for me.

Miss Pettigrew Lives For A Day - 3 Beers



Mary Poppins set in the 1920s. Well written/acted with an original storyline. I'm not a big fan of the 'Fargo' gal, but she knows how to pick a good film. A surprisingly un-negative film for once. Enjoy.

Hell Ride - 1 Beer



Biker gang gets gangland. I knew this was going to be bad at 1:20 when a biker talked about an nihilistic nightmare. I like QT and his efforts, which is why I saw this despite what the reviewers said. I should've listened. Lots of bosoms, though, which is strange for modern b-film.

You Don't Mess With The Zohan - 1 Beer



Israeli military man wants to cut hair. The first 25 minutes of the film was quite funny, the rest left off. I will continue to rant about Rob Schneider and his black/yellow/red/brown-face characters. Yes it's offensive, but forget that...it's not funny. I'll accept offensive, as long as it's funny. Forgettable, but not as bad as people have said.
