    "If you’re a fan of stoner type comedies you’ll probably like Smiley Face. It’s simple and funny and features a great performance by Anna Farris as a young woman who accidently eats her roommates entire stash of pot brownies - on top of already being stoned - and sets out on a series of misadventures that include trying to sell some government pot, coming into possession of an original edition of The Communist Manifesto and accompianing a hopeful suitor to a dentist appointment. It’s not the best movie in the world but it also doesn’t really try to be. Instead it simply asks you to come along for the ride Farris’ character is on and not ask too many questions.        [More]

    "Catherine Hardwicke hit one out of the park for female directors this past weekend, but she had a lot of help. Not only was she working with a pre-sold property, she also had a very manageable budget of $37 million. Quite different from the $2 million she had to work with on Thirteen a few years back. Of course, she had similar budgets on Lords of Dogtown ($25 million) and The Nativity Story ($35 million), and both were box office disappointments. Still, she’s going to keep on being trusted with more money — if Summit is smart they’ll keep her on for at least the first Twilight sequel, which will surely come with a higher price tag — and as long as she continues with genre films, she’s sure to remain a profitable director. Not every talented filmmaker does well with more money. Danny Boyle, for instance, typically bombs with bigger budgets. And a lot of foreign auteurs " [More]

    "This film is pure "popcorn". I think that if you can just sit back, not think too much and just enjoy the pure silliness that is this movie you'll find it highly amusing. It's a goofy ride full of ridiculousness as you watch Jane's well-devised plans go amazingly wrong. So grab some munchies, kick back and have some laughs. " [More]

    "If Smiley Face were directed by Spike Jonze, it would have been a masterpiece. Its script, by Dylan Haggerty, is consistently entertaining, frequently hysterical, and occasionally quite inventive in how it depicts a day in the life of its stoner protagonist. Perhaps even more importantly, it understands the episodic, tangential logic of the pothead. The specious associations, the noncommittal detours of thought and action, the staunch belief in the nobility of your quest, the disparity between what you mean to say and what actually comes out of your mouth; all are rendered with a knowing clarity that will be commended by the herbal enthusiast and will, hopefully, prove enlightening to those members of the square community who wouldn't know from personal experience. But just as brilliance borne of bong hits tends to collapse upon itself in sober language, so too does Haggerty's script in the hands of director Gregg Araki. The tones of the script and the direction are str ... " [More]

    "An all around stupidly entertaining little film from the kind people of Canada, Weirdsville is an amalgam of the dark, witty dialogue and pacing of Kiss Kiss, Bang Bang and the not-so-original plotline of "drugs + desperation = bad things" from countless movies (the most recent seen by myself being Smiley Face). Direction and farcically desperate, yet surprisingly effective characters keep this movie from being just another forgettable weekend rental. " [More]

    "America's twentieth president, James Garfield, plays a central role in my favorite stoner movie rant. The monologue comes courtesty of Courtesy of Jane F. in the movie Smiley Face.VIDEO: SCRIPT: JANE: That is where corn chips come from. Hmm... Maybe ol' Professor Hardwood is onto something. He probably really loves corn. And all corn-related products. I mean, isn't that what you're supposed to put in a frame? Things you love? I'm gonna do that. When I'm get home, I'm gonna frame a bunch of stuff I love. Like lasagna. I love lasagna. It's SO good. And cheesy. You know who else loves lasagna? Garfield. Man, that cat really loves lasagna. Maybe I should put a picture of Garfield in a frame. You know, as a kind of shorthand way of saying 'I love lasagna.' That would be so fucking inside. Or h " [More]

    "Here’s a look at the notable films opening this week that we’ve previously covered here on SpoutBlog: Redacted: Bill O’Reilly can finally get a look at the film he’s sight-unseen been threatening to boycott, while Magnolia finally gets to put that whole all-press-is-good-press maxim to the test. Here’s my review from Telluride; for a recap on the possibly-contrived battle between director Brian DePalma and producer/distributor Mark Cuban, see here, here and here. Beowulf: Is director Robert Zemeckis not doing press for this film because he knows it’s a bad idea to compete with the post-Comic-Con gushage over Angelina Jolie’s nakedness? [More]
