The Love Guru


So I rented this movie the other day. I had low expectations for it because I saw that it got terrible reviews and it wasn't in theaters for very long and it's already out on DVD, but, it wasn't half bad.

Mike Myers is pretty genius at comedy with the characters he comes up with Wayne Campbell from SNL, to Austin Powers and Dr. Evil to now, the Guru Pitka. The movie is definitely good for some laughs. It is not as good as Austin Powers and some of the jokes you have heard before are actually from Austin Powers, but it should put a smile on your face at least once. So rent it one night when you've got nothing to do, put on your pj's, eat some Ben and Jerry's and try to have a good time.

Oh yeah, it also stars Justin Timberlake and he sucks in this one!
2 Stars (out of 4)......yes indeed!

Top 5 Worst Movies

1. Batman and Robin - Thank God Christopher Nolan came out with the new Batman Movies to redeem the caped crusader. After this movie with the Governator and Uma Thurman, the Batman name was almost shot. It had horrible acting, a horrible plot, and apparently Batman has every single thing from ultra heaters to a credit card. He doesn't hide his voice and its not hard to tell that Chris O'Donnell is Robin. And Alicia Silverstone should not be Batgirl...there shouldn't even be a Batgirl...or a Robin. I say again, thank God for the new movies.

2. Open Water - The boat leaves them behind in the middle of the ocean by accident. They're stranded, and then they die. It's a two hour movie and they are in the ocean by themselves for about 1 hour and 45 minutes. Then they die, it sucks and its just depressing. No thanks.

3. Dreamcatcher - I have no idea what this movie is about. I think aliens are invading the world or they already have something. Then these 4 guys are trying to take a vacation in the mountains when one guy gets abducted, then another gets eaten, then another guy goes to find another friend who is mentally retarded and turns out to be an alien. LAME!

4. Rumor Has It - Jennifer Aniston hooks up with Kevin Costner who turns out to be the actual guy for the story behind "The Graduate". They sleep together so that means Costner has slept with 3 generations of women and Aniston, knowing all this information, sleeps with him anyway. If your a respectable women, would you sleep with someone who has slept with your mother and your grandmother? I didn't think so. And Aniston winds up cheating on her fiance with this guy! And then, she gets mad at him when he won't take her back, but he does and it just goes to show how some women can be just be f***heads!

5. Waiting - I watched this movie, didn't laugh. I worked in a restaurant and watched this movie again, and still didn't laugh. It was kinda gross, and Ryan Reynolds is too good an actor to accept a role where a mid-twenties guys hits on a minor in high school. I though it was going to be good, it looked good, but I hated this movie!

Honorable Mentions: Batman Forever, Open Water 2, Scream 3, Date Movie, Epic Movie, Superhero Movie, Disaster Movie (enough is enough already guys), Semi-Pro, The Happening, Lady in the Water, Shutter.
