Proprio lui?

Despite what other people wrote I thought it was fun and hilarious. My daughter talked me into watching it...I was not disappointed 🙂

I still mourn for the time I spent watching this thing it can't be classified as a movie it would be an insult to cinema I strongly advise you to not watch it. If only there was a tool to erase my m memory so I could wipe this movie completely from my mind it is ground zero it's terrible it's a waste of time.

There is a weird guy who is ultra rich and loves a girl and to marry her he needs her father's consent and for this reason invites her family to his castle like luxury House where he also works with his employees and this guy can't speak without f word. Everyone puts up with him just because his richness cover his unacceptable weird psychopath behaviors.

Thank god I have dry humour as I found this movie so funny. How people can say it's not funny I will never know. If you're reading this and have NOT yet seen the movie, go ahead and which it as it's bloody funny.

"Why Him" is a movie with jokes that actually got me to laugh.

I like the concept of a programmer/hermit (Laird) getting with a smart girl from Stanford (Stephanie) and making a first impression to her parents, which is an absolute failure.

There's a fair bit of sex scenes and profanity (Laird's swearing, especially when unintended, is entertaining) so don't watch this with your children. While a comedy, not a comedy for the whole family.

However, I don't really like any other aspects. The plot is sloppy and repetitive, and the whole film centers around 1 day or so. Camerawork could have been better executed.

Sending my love to Gustav (especially the actor).

Why him? I tell you why, because I can't think of any other actor who can transform this this cinematic excrement into a gourmet dish. There is a matteroffactness in his character that lives somewhere between Rupert Pumpkin and Howard Hughes, the thing is that the life James Franco gives to his character is absolutely real. The film could have turned into a horror thriller, because Franco forces you, in the most entertaining way, to feel slightly off-balance. That alone keeps you glued to it in spite of the moronic lack of ideas. Bryan Cranston, of course, is sheer perfection. Reacting hilariously to the absurdity with infinite generosity - A trait of great actors - I wish them a Billy Wilder next time or a Preston Sturges or...you know. Fearless originals just like Franco and Cranston.
