Miss March - (Piss Parch)

Postby TheStuboy » March 16th, 2009, 3:59 pm

Kenzie and I were in the mood for a stupid movie to get my computer dying out of my head. For your information, it was the six year old Compaq that got killed by a virus (I have no idea where it came from) but a fix is on the way and it should be up and running again soon.

Back on subject, the movie we chose was Miss March, which my station KBER has been pushing the heck out of with free movie passes. Had it not been Sunday, I could have (and should have) used one.

As I write this, a commercial for the addicting FOX show House is on and its for the new one tonight where House holds a Buki hostage and beats. Check it out.

Anyway, back on subject again!

SPOILERS
Miss March tells the story of two losers, one who looks and acts like a younger Jim Carrey, and a stu guy who is saving himself for marriage, when his hot girlfriend wants his oates for prom night.

Just as he is about to get oates however, he falls down some stairs and is knocked into a coma for four years. Woken up by his Jim Carrey friend, he learns about what has happened in the past four years. The kicker comes when the Jim Carrey guy finds a Playboy magazine and the hot girlfriend from four years earlier is the centerfold. The two friends decide to take a cross country journey to the Playboy mansion to reunite with her. Hilarity ensues.

END SPOILERS


While Miss March is certainly no Dumb and Dumber, and is in no way at the level of Ace Ventura or The Mask, this is a funny movie. I expected it to be stupid and I wasn't disappointed, but I also was surprised by the funny moments. Its nice to get a break from Judd Aptow films, which are often full of stupid jokes and fart jokes, and the same old same old. You really can't compare films like 40 Year Old Virgin to Knocked Up because they are practically identical. I am not a fan of Aptow because his films are all the same.

This is not an Aptow film though. It may not be as good as most comedies, but it certainly is funnier than Knocked Up or Zack and Miri Make a Porno, both of which I have seen.

The Jim Carrey guy reminds me of him, except younger and stupider. Yes the acting is not the greatest, but the comedy is what saves this movie from certain doom.

The story was pretty predictable but I didn't go into this expecting Dumb and Dumber. It generated some good laughs but had some stu parts as well.

Its not perfect, but its not bad either.

3.2 stars out of 5. Not enough nudity but plenty of funny. The critics were awfully harsh on this one. God forbid an independent film is a comedy. OH NOES!

No matter how hard you try, you can't capture a Jim Carrey performance. Close, but no cigar.
