Movie Reviews of Super Sucker
Movie Review: Only in America
Summary: 5 Stars
For unknown reasons there are people in this country that through no fault of their own come second place. They salute the other American flag and hear the anthem played for the losers.
"Super Sucker" is a film about this group of people. Sort of a kinder version of "Used Cars" and has that same feel good quality
of "Tucker". Writen,Acted and Directed By Jeff Daniels it is on the same level with the early work of Woody Allen's "Take The Money and Run" as an au tor work, we have in the past seen such projects turn out to be, I Made this for myself and you are fortunate to see it; turn out be to so introspective as to actually put the viewer to sleep .
With the film "Super Sucker" I had a goodtime from being to end. I felt a part of this film and I wanted to be one of the team of "Super Sucker" sales people(as stated in the film it is more than just a Vaccum). The Film is about the daily struggles of selling vaccums between two firms that may if Daniels, Fred Barlows team don't sell enought (which they have not been doing over the long term)will go out of business.
As with most films these days it relies on sex to carry the comedy; I add this no to be critical but to warn asexual viewers.
The nice surprise is Dawn Wells who we rarely get to see in films these days has a pleasant turn as herself and much mention is made of "Gilligans Island".
Lately, I have had a hard time in this new age (The 21 century)
finding films that have not been over produced, over marketed,
or over hyped that I have truely enjoyed and felt good about buying. "Super Sucker" is one and marks the 800 dvd in my collection the only other feel good film that I enjoyed lately that is in the same class is John Waters "A Dirty Shame". The next film that I can say I really want to see is "Johnny Slade's Greatest Hits" by Larry Blamire whose first film "The Lost Skeleton of Cadavra" was also a goodtime.
"Super Sucker" I believe worked because it was an independant film and the Jeff Daniels Free of studio muddling could get his vision on the screen. I was truely entertained by this work and we could use more like it.
