Mud Songs

If you’ve seen the trailer, you’ve seen all there is worth seeing in this movie. Any 3 minutes of Flight of the Conchords has 10 times more laughs than Tropic Thunder. Normally I’d stay clear of anything with Ben Stiller’s name on it (he wrote and directed this one), but I heard good things about Robert Downey Jr. playing a black guy that made me think, “Okay, maybe it’s alright.” But it’s not. I admit I laughed out loud maybe 3 times after some of Downey’s lines, but the rest of it was like every other Ben Stiller so-called comedy: a waste of time. He doesn’t make me laugh.

I bought a ticket to see Bridge to Terabithia, but the theatre was packed when I got in. So I went out and asked if I could get my money back. I was told nope, tough luck, but I could see any other movie that was about to play: Norbit or Night at the Museum. I can’t believe I sat through an entire Ben Stiller movie. Let us never speak of this again. Ever.
