    50 First Dates

    An Adam Sandler produced film where he ends up with a girl completely out of his league, despite having next to no charisma? Color me shocked.

    I’m still not quite sure why I chose this movie to watch. 

    I don’t know what I expected. 

    For an Adam Sandler flick, this one is bad. Not as bad Hubie Halloween (we’ll get there one day…), but this movie has it’s own heap of issues.

    For starters, the entire plot revolves around Adam…

    Perhaps the only redeeming entry in the rom-com genre

    What 27 Dresses lacks in complexity it makes up for in fun. It’s the first rom-com I’ve watched where the leading pair genuinely feel like they have chemistry.

    Finally! An anxiety inducing creep out flick, filled with smash cuts! 

    There’s a lot of ways I could write this review, citing all the derivatives that this movie was inspired by but I won’t. To give this movie it’s due, I’ll review it as a standalone peice.

    The first thing you’ll notice on watch, and may even be incited to watch something else because of it, is how stiff and forced the delivery of the dialogue is. I promise you…
