Nota 12 em Confusão: O Cruzeiro dos Loucos

I went to a screening of Dorm Daze 2 last night. My cousin worked on it so that might make me a little biased, but anyway, I laughed my ass off. The crowd was mostly people from the film who automatically are going to like it, but it was still one of the funniest movies I've seen this year. The plot doesn't die halfway through and then you get stuck with the same lame joke over and over like it does in half the movies around. There's a lot of female nudity which I think offended the old lady behind me and unfortunately there's also a lot of naked man ass which made me want to gouge my eyes out. Note to all producers. No man should ever be naked on film. The male body is meant to be covered in a burka at all times. However, thank you for all the naked females. There can never be too much naked female. Yours truly. Gandhi.

This is starting to be a film that I see when flipping thru the channels (and darn if Fios has a lot) late night to see if anything good is on to watch. It is relatively painless on that level, though it is hard to imagine too many will find it worthwhile to watch the whole thing. It is one of those films, however, you can mindlessly watch parts of, especially if you aren't desiring to think much. Drinking or being half asleep will help here or something along those lines.

The film is very frenetic -- it aims, especially during the extended play performance climax -- for slapstick style farce. I think it deserves a bit of love for at times managing to do this 1/2 well. It's not really that easy to do, especially with such a large cast.

Take the scene where two characters are trying to get into mood for sex. While this is happening, other things occur, and it all comes together when one of the boob characters accidentally falls over the ledge (because of some other plot development), down to his butt ramming against the cabin window. A crowd of people come in while this occurs. Basically, I'm saying, it requires some degree of plotting the situations to put this all together. It isn't that funny, mind you, but I respected the skill of it all.

Who expects much from a sequel to a film of this nature anyway? So, not much of a positive rating, but I do respect the effort. I think some of these people, including the creators of the film, might have enough talent that in another context, they could make a superior product.

If someone is renting this movie for any other reason than seeing Vida Guerra's very developed assets (especially the bottom half) then I think they have already missed the point of this movie.

Vida is stunning as always. The internet's most down-loadable woman and her beautifully developed apple bottom star in this guilty pleasure of a movie. The feauturette of Vida in the extras on the DVD are worth the purchase price of this DVD alone. I'm a huge Vida fan, and a fan of the curvy instead of stick female that Hollywood has been throwing at us the past few decades, so finally getting the sexiest, most curvy woman possible brings a tear to my eye.

So, as of writing this review, I'm 28 years old, this movie was released when I was 11, and I saw it by accident when I was 16. I think that's relevant. Watching this movie is far from watching a political blockbuster like Dr. Strangelove or a visual masterpiece like Blade Runner, but when it comes to movies you can just lay back and chill to, or watch with friends who just wants something to look at, this has several times in my life been a go-to for some reason. It's an absurd mix of premature sexual jokes and a wholly cliché storyline, while still having actors trying to do their best with a script that's... questionable. To simplify it as much as possible, it's the game of Clue (like the Savannah episode of The Office) meets horny college student. In terms of cinematic value, it's one of the lowest hanging fruits you can image, but somehow the actors executes the questionable script flawlessly. Whenever I want to lay back and relax without thinking about... well... anything, this movie is in my top 10, and I feel like it's a guilty pleasure of mine.

Sequel to "Dorm Daze" (which I didn't see). It involves a class of college kids aboard a huge liner where "hilarious" hijinks occur. We have the ugly repulsive guys trying to get laid, the horny virgins, the stoners, the nymphomaniacs, the girls who might be lesbians, the gratuitous female nudity and a kleptomaniac monkey (seriously). I was expecting very little and that's exactly what I got. Almost all the jokes are terrible and the plots are stupid. Also I've never seen such a poor distribution of plots. They go careening all over the place with no rhyme or reason. Also seriously--most of the male "stars" of this movie are out of shape and quite frankly ugly. Yet we have all these beautiful women falling all over themselves to get to them! This gets two stars for a few reasons--there's a bunch of fairly hot nude men at the end (back view only), there are some funny jokes and some of the acting is not half bad (most of the women here are pretty good actors). But, all in all, this is a pretty bad t&a flick.
