Now that it's easy for me to watch movies again, and that I have a DVR at home, I've been watching more movies. Here's a few I've watched recently:
Thumbsucker: Weird, weird movie. About a teenager who's obsessed with sucking his thumb, and focuses on the "story" of his teenage life. Perhaps it might have made more sense to me in book format, but this movie felt too artistic to make much sense to me.
Little Miss Sunshine: Also a weird movie, but with comedy. Although the situation was less "at home" comedy than Napolean Dynamite, I still related quite well to the dysfunctional family. Hmm... part of me wants to say it also reminded me of the TV Show Malcolm in the Middle (or something quite similar).
Imagine Me & You: A British dramedy (they classified it as a comedy, but like any romantic comedy, there was plenty of serious emotional parts to it) about a bride who falls in love with her florist. It was nice in that the movie didn't play into the typical homosexual stereotypes that get overplayed in most films dealing with that subject matter, nor did it feel preachy in any way. Decent chick flick.
Erik the Viking: Classic humor! It's been classified as Pythonesque, but I think it's just a touch of regular British humor - the jokes weren't always running.
