Movie Reviews of One Crazy Summer

Movie Review: You touched my car!
Summary: 4 Stars

I loved this movie as a young kid in the 80s. Taped it off HBO during those free premium weekends and watched it over and over again.

Years later, I got the DVD and realized Ive become more critical of movies- to that point: The movie's real world logic was really non-existant at all - at times I had realize that this was probably a dream or fantasy and that logic was far from the key.

But I did realize that the quotes and dialouge in the movie are what sells it. Its all about the actors and the words between them. Some of the gags are better than others, but through it all, the words seem to make this movie great. Its a tale of the underdogs and outkasts sticking it to the snobs in their own wacky way.

Movie Review: First time I've seen it
Summary: 4 Stars

I'm a huge fan of 80's movies, especially with John Cusack in them. "Better Off Dead" has been one of my favorites for most of my life. A friend recently suggested I see this film, so I bought it with the hopes it would be great. It was. I do not love it as much as the others, but it still has the quirky humor of that time which I absolutely love.

If you do not like "Better Off Dead" I would not suggest this movie, because it plays on similar themes. The characters are all extremely quirky and at times the premise is unrealistic.

Movie Review: You don't understand: she's gonna lose the house!
Summary: 4 Stars

It must have been a close call whether they could make more money trying to sell this on DVD or getting the cast to pay them not to. My advice: watch the movie, so you know how bad it is, then watch it again with the commentary by Curtis Armstrong, Bobcat Goldthwait (in his normal voice, thank God!) and Savage Steve Holland. They know it's bad, and they love it. You'll really enjoy it that second time, with what amounts to a running laugh track and better jokes than are in the movie. It's a riot.

Movie Review: Savage Cusack
Summary: 4 Stars

Cusack plays Hoops in a role that can best be described as a typical John Cusack role. Demi Moore plays a supporing role/love interest for Cusack is a way that is very different for Demi. If you are a fan of Cusack, Savage Steve Holland, or 80s movies then you will like this. Similar to "Better Off Dead."

Movie Review: "Grounds for a mercy killing."
Summary: 4 Stars

Yep,
the movie style may have been emulated before but in my opinion, Rich Hall's character as the gas station attendant is a formidable scene. I will go as far as comparing it to Dennis Hopper and Christopher Walken in "True Romance." ok, that may be pushing it. enjoy.
