Not that they weren't to begin with...

But wow. Just got back from this... and I loved it. Absolutely loved it.

Before you pre-judge my review, I hated the first one. I found it to be a typical Disney blockbuster... and I just couldn't find enjoyment in it (with the exception of Depp). This one, however, brought me into this series.

I shan't go on about the plot... as... well, it's hard to explain, and not worth spoiling.

Lets just do a quick checklist, shall we?

Depp? Check.

Knightly? Check.

Special effects comparable to Peter Jackson's King Kong's? Check.

Super bad ass enemies that make you sick to look at? Check.

Disney clichés? Somewhat, but not enough to make you sick.

Undead monkey? Check.

So there we have it. Perfect summer blockbuster that is of "modern classic" proportions. I was actually surprised at how amazing this movie is.

Don't expect an average action movie... but, then don't expect to feel secure at the end. Hint hint.

I became obsessed with this film when I first saw it. Not only was it wonderfully casted (gotta love Whitaker) and had great acting, but the progression of the film was actually awesome for such a simple plot.

Sure, it's nowhere near as good as Fincher's earlier work, but as an individual movie, it's damn refreshing. It takes a cliché, boring story and makes it work. If you ignore the bland ideas and focus more on the characters, acting, action, and film techniques, you will enjoy this movie.

It may be a stretch for some people, and I can understand why, but I guess for a movie like this, you just have to let your guard down and enjoy it. Thats what I did, and damn did I love it.

So try this movie out. It may or may not work for you, but if it does work, you'll love it.

Never in my life have I ever laughed so many times at a movie after having seen it many times before. Amung my community this film was (and still is) a classic comedy, a cult classic if you will. Clearly it isn't widely accepted by you "mature" people who laugh at people in awkward relationship situations involving someones mother walking in on two people talking about sex (Now THAT'S classy comedy!), but this movie offers (to those who don't pay to see every Tom Green movie) a hilariously stupid comedy about two morons who go on a messed up adventure.

The writing of this movie is (suprisingly) clever. The jokes aren't just people farting every four seconds, they actually have some style to them (if you can call it style...). The movie is fluent, fast paced, and funny all the way through, which is really a rarity in many wannabe comedies.

It's the kind of movie you should see drunk with your friends, or even on your own. Do NOT EVER WATCH THIS WITH YOUR GRANDPARENTS! That would be a mistake. Basically, what I'm saying is it's a movie for people with the ability to be immature for 2 hours of their life, or for anyone who just wants to let their guard down and laugh at a vulgar yet hilarious film.

So of course I'm going to give this movie a 10. It deserves it. Kudos on a suburb comedy that will be passed down from generation to generation. Those kids are as corrupt as it is... might as well give them what they want.
