Between Two Ferns: The Movie (2019)
The funniest movie I've seen in a long time
They don't make many comedies like this anymore. Great combo of the at times slapstick-absurd while also having many really clever jokes and writing.
The movie adds quite a few more layers on top of what was already a very funny show. Some great performances from Zack and Lauren Lapkus. Plus lots of amusing celebrity cameos.
I've watched it 3 times at this point and each time it has made me laugh. I also notice some new thing I hadn't spotted in the previous viewings.
Congrats to all involved. Well worth checking out if you want a good laugh.
La moustache (2005)
Beautifully Shot and well acted but annoying
This is the first time I've felt compelled to write a review because I feel that watching this movie was a big fat waste of time - and a fairly annoying tedious time at that. If you are wondering whether to spend 1 and a half hours of your life watching this movie - I would recommend against it.
Warning spoilers below:
He shaves off his moustache. His wife then says he never had one. He has photos to prove he does. He never sits with his wife and shows them to her. He has an ID card and passport which show he has a moustache. He never shows her these either.
Then he goes to Hong Kong, on his own and writes his wife a postcard which he doesn't get to post.
Next thing we know she has been with him in Hong Kong all along. But the postcard is still in the pocket of the jacket he came in. Instead of showing her this, he throws it away!
Are we are supposed to believe it was all a dream?
Or is he switching realities?
Or is it the writer trying to tell us to accept whatever crazy non-nonsensical reality we find ourselves in without questioning it, as long as there is some saucy french woman to keep us company?
The film left me quite unsatisfied and a bit annoyed that I had sat through the whole thing.
