My Review
Big Nothing is a wonderful movie in my opinion. note I do very so much enjoy raunch, raunchy comedies from the late 90’s and early 2000’s. my over all score of Big Nothing is a 7.9 because its a grate film and all but it dose how ever lack a few small things. 1 the ever so good side of acting skills of Simon Pegg. Which caused this movie to not reach it’s full potential. How ever i do think that David Schwimmer was at his best I’d ever seen him in this movie, although i was not an avid watcher of friends. The editing of this movie was pretty good above the average so i scored Big Nothing’s editing at an 8.0. and for the story i gave it an 7.6 because it was really good and twist filed but it lack a unf ending to it. (given this is the 3rd or 4th time i’ve watched this movie the unf may have warred off.)
(SO I DONT SPOIL THE MOVIE FOR YOU PLEASE WATCH BEFORE READING THE REST OR IF YOU DON’T CARE PLEASE READ.)
Don’t have much to say about this movie but why wasn’t there a sequel or spin off so we could see who kills whom in the end. they could have even added that to the end of the movie and had charlie no a cure for the Poisson he drinks so he lives with his family but still losses him mummery so it would still be realistic or what ever.
Simon Pegg suck in this movie not completely but i have seen him do way better jobs like in Shaun of the Dead which to me had to same type of feel but overall i loved a recommend you watch this movie if you have not.

Review on The Graduate

My Review
The Graduate was a really good film that had the feel of an early 70’s movie. Which was most likely do to the film being originally in black and white and late having color added to it. Side not i really miss the grain that was in movies back then as well for how short the credits were. I would say the story was about a 7.5 because of a very slight twist that i would not have expected at all; Plus this film was pretty predictable without me reading the story-line before watching it. The editing of this film I would give a 8 or 8.4 just for the smoothness of the transitions and every thing else that was done to create the film. Overall grade of the film was a 8.0.
After you have seen the film, Comments i had
(so i don’t spoil the movie for you or if you don’t care about spoiler please read.)
why did the pic a main actor that does not look like an average American boy in the 60’s. first off he looks like he does not look 20 he looks like his mid 20’s. Plus he looks like hes Italian, like full Italian an from what i remember most kid in the 60’s didn’t look like him at all. But hay maybe that was the point that the director was trying to get across that all american are not blonde haired and blue eye; but don’t quote me on that just a speculation of why the might have done such.
why would a 20 year old man not want to have sex with a lady that is throwing here self at you, i under-stud maybe not in those circumstances but then to act like a babbling 10 year old just saw a monster for the first time after she show you her breast come on man. did all men act like that back then when they saw breast for the first time? did all me sleep in the nude back then and women had to where slips that is so sexist if so.
Every thing that dealt with Mrs. Robinson was predictable only thing is why do we never find out her first name shouldn’t you tell someone your being intimate with your name and have them call by that rather then your last name.
Why did Mr. Robinson react toward Ben in the way i would have expected him to react to his wife. like the I’m discussed with you do touch me kind of mood, when he should of been in the I’m going to pound your face in kind of mood it just didn’t really make much since.
Most thing dealing Elaine were predictable except for the part at the end were she fully goes throw with marrying the make out king (don’t remember his real name) but then still runs off with Ben.
