Howdy there movie buffs!

Today we’re starting a new series on Must See Movies. You know when you’re sitting in the movie theater and the trailers come on? You know how you get to whisper, “Ooooh. That looks good! I wanna see that!” and “God, I hate Keira Knightly’s crazy ribcage of doom.”

And you know how you can feel the person behind you staring at you thinking, “God. I wish that chick would stop whispering about these future films. She doesn’t know what the eff she’s talking about. Kiera Knightly’s rib cage should probably have the right to vote, that’s how legit it is.”

And you know how you just want to turn around and smack that guy? I mean, where does he get off judging your judgments? What a lame hypothetical dude. He’s the lamest hypothetical person in the whole hypothetical movie theater.

Anywho, it’s fun to judge movies before they come out. That’s what trailers (or ‘previews’, depending on your preference) are made for.

So we’re going to take time out of our lives to post a trailer and let our judgements fly before we even see the film. Sometimes we’ll be right (Fever Pitch). Sometimes we’ll be wrong (I can’t think of any instances, but I’m sure it will happen).

Today, let’s take a look at the film Jeff, Who Lives at Home:

And JUDGE!

It looks like Jason Segal and Ed Helms are going to get all indie with Susan Sarandon. It seems like this flick is going to show some versatility for each of these normally goofy guys.

My judgement: This film is going to be quirky, well written, and heartwarming. I bet Jason Segal is going to have an epiphany that leads him to find his purpose and move out of his mother’s home. I’d put money on the fact that Ed Helms’ character learns how to live in the moment and within’ his means. He’ll find that there’s more to life than earning something commiserate with a forensic psychologist salary. This will lead to a reconciliation between him and his wife. This is going to be a lovely movie.

Alright, ‘Jeff, Who Lives at Home’, you have been judged!

What are your judgments for this flick?

Kids is a crazy movie, and apparently really scared parents everywhere as a “realistic” look into the lives of urban teenagers.  Even more than that, all they do is have sex, drink, and give each other HIV. Seriously I’m glad these kids parents never considered becoming a teacher. It starts with Telly, a smooth(?) talking ladies man, who’s favorite thing to do is take girls virginity ans give them AIDS, and he’s sleeping with a girl in a giant house. Upon finishing his “bidniss“, he gets chased out by the girls father, and he continues on his way with his friend Casper. He explains how he wants to take three girls virginity in one day. Menwhile, Jenny (Chloe Sevigny) is across town in a clinic being told she’s HIV positive, and (shockingly) realizes she got it from Tully. The rest of the movie is Tully spreading AIDS like candy, and Jenny trying to find him and stop him. The movie ends with Tully’s friend date-raping Jenny while she’s passed out, and we all assume he gets AIDS. The can’t miss moments of this gem include; a legless pan-handler on the subway scooting down the isle on a skateboard singing “I have no legs” shaking a cup of change at people; when Casper is date-raping Jenny, and he is taking her pants off, and he extra-creepy whispers to her ‘Shhhhh it’s me, Casper”, while she’s floping around drunkenly in his arms, as well as a detailed account of teenage girls giving boys oral sex from none other than a teenage Rosario Dawson.

Should you see this movie? ABSOLUTELY, if you’ve never seen this movie, you will miss out on literally hundreds of conversations, being it’s a personal favorite ice breaker of the hot male hipster persuasion. So the next time a guy walks up behind you in a bar and whispers “shhhh it’s me, Casper”, don’t mace him. Or maybe mace him.

Adapted from Mark Millar’s  graphic novel , Kick-Ass is the story of an average New York teenager who is sick of being victimized, so rather than peruse a career as a police officer, he straps on a tight costume and decides to fight crime. This beautiful comic book geek (Aaron Johnson) is anything but graceful, but that doesn’t mean he isn’t a fully capable crime fighter.  Dave starts kicking the crap out of criminals with nothing but teenage ambition. He calls himself Kick-Ass, and the only thing close to a super power he has is his ability to take a harsh ass kicking. Before long, Kick-Ass has become a city wide celebrity, which brings other super heroes out of the woodwork. Big Daddy (Nicolas Cage) and Hit-Girl (Chloe Moretz) are a father-daughter crime-fighting team who have vowed to take out local mob boss Frank D’Amico (Mark Strong). They end up doing all the actual fighting and killing, yet Kick-Ass becomes the poster boy for their deeds. The mob boss doesn’t take the attack on his organization very well, and his son, Chris (Christopher Mintz-Plasse), is about to become Kick-Ass’ very first arch nemesis, Red Mist.

This movie rocks my face. It’s so brilliant I’ve watched it at least ten times. Chloe Mortez is beyond excellent in this movie, without having the creepy adult-child vibe that Dakota Fanning made so famous. This girl can ACT, and she honestly makes the movie, out shadowing even Nick Cage. Look for an early role from Evan Peters, who has been rocking it out on American Horror Story as Tate.

Should you see this movie? Absolutly. The gratuitous violence against children is anything but, and the acting is very above par for the reception the movie received.  SEE IT NOW

Troop Beverly Hills came out in 1989, and it’s amazing. This movie is seriously underrated for its sheer genius. It’s about a zany rich lady from Beverly Hills, who upon being served divorce papers from her muffler dealing husband, decides to take the reigns of her daughter’s wilderness girls troop rather than becoming a paralegal. Despite her obviously crippling dependence to alcohol and shopping, she is approved for the job. She can hardly take care of herself let alone teenage girls. The girls are your “typical” Beverly Hills stereotypes in the late 80′s. They are the offspring to people even more zany then drunk Shelly Long. Movie producers, foreign dictators, best selling romance novelists, all filthy rich and too busy for their children. One can only begin to imagine what kind of kinky adventures the girls get into when not being neglected by their troop leader.  In one scene the girls are playing poker in their pajamas with a hot young bellhop, and Shelly is passed out in the bedroom. The whole movie is a lot better if you picture them all with a coke problems. It’s not hard, they’re all filthy rich and it’s the 80′s, of course they are all on coke. Anyway, Shelly apparently fools everyone into thinking she’s at least become a functional alcoholic when the uber-bonkers antagonist self destructs because of repressed transgender issues. Her husband decides not to leave her, and everything goes back to to the way it was. She keeps shopping and drinking, and the girls are getting felt up by a bellhop behind some hotel downtown.

Should you see it? ABSOLUTELY. This movie takes itself 100% serious, and only makes sense if you imagine it’s really from the perspective of a selfish, outrageously dressed addict who manipulates those around her into maintaining her Lohan lifestyle.  Also, the clothes are out of control.
