OK, I admit it I don't get this episode entirely, or maybe there is no deeper, hidden meaning? I don't get the point of the emphasis on tooth decay. I got the Canadian jokes(almost missed the eskimo kiss/bj one at first). I got that it was a parody of the Royal wedding of William and Kate, I think in this respect, the choice of using Canada instead of England/Wales, the guys(Trey and Matt)made a wise choice, because they have all these characters, Ugly Bob, Scott the Dick, Ike, etc. But Terrance and Phillip were not utilized very well in this episode, perhaps a missed opportunity? So was there a point to tooth decay? I felt like I was missing something. The majority of SP episodes it is very obvious to the viewer what being parody, or the lessen being preached, even with this episode with wedding part it was obvious, but to me it felt like I was being left of some inside joke. At first I was thinking it would be revealed towards the end, the big mystery that I was missing, but there was no real answer and I was left confused. It felt kinda pointless, which is unusual for south park. I enjoyed parts of it, but found it to be disappointing overall. At least I had a few good laughs from the wedding parts and I found the traditions Trey and Matt came up with for us Canadians quite humorous.
I kind of feel compelled to write a review for this movie. It is a must watch. It is truly inspirational. It is uplifting and offers actual answers.
This is sort of 2 stories in 1 movie (documentary). The film starts out with Joe, an Australian who travels to the United States for a 60 day juice fast. The first 30 days he spends in New York and then proceeds to travel across country for the remaining 30 days. Along the way he talks to people about health and food. Along this travel Joe meets Phil, a truck driver who suffers from the same autoimmune disease as Joe. The second half of the film is about Phil's journey and decision to start fasting, making healthier life choice and exercising, with Joe's help.
I have never been one to enjoy any show or film about weight loss, or eating healthier. I suppose part of that is that I've never been affected by it. I have no problem staying thin. I say this not to be arrogant, but to stress just how good this film is; the fact that this film actually caught my attention. I'll say it again, it was inspirational.
It was also very entertaining. The story is put together well. It's well edited. Throughout the movie there are segments that are animated, and they are done very well, which adds more to the film in terms of entertainment; and not just for the sake of it. I'd highly recommend this movie to everyone, whether you are overweight or underweight or right on target. It's a must watch for anyone who has never thought about what they eat much, and also for those who already do. It's good for audiences alike I think.
The only thing I might be weary of .at one point in the film they do suggest an average cost of doing this juice fast to most it might seem quite reasonable, but for others, like myself, it does seem quite costly. I mean, it's more than I'm used to spending on food. But maybe I could cut down on other things. But I think it all comes down to motivation and desire.
Who knows, I just might try this one day soon.

Blah blah blah....Gemma wants to get on to big brother(uk)...her and her boyfriend and another friend set out to make a showreel for her audition. They get sidetracked and end up at some remote place where the two boys plan to secretly film a swingers party.
The movie starts out descent. The characters are fairly cliché. I'd not want to see Gemma on BB. Nor Danny, maybe Nate, but idk probably not, they're all rather boring. I suppose the only reason I'd say it starts out descent is because I enjoy BB so much. I suppose they use that to an advantage.
A lot of the movie is just them walking around exploring this place. Scaring each other. A whole lot of nothing. Randomly shots of the characters family members are thrown in, which adds nothing. As the movie progresses it tries to make a weak attempt at making it seem the characters are breaking down, and turning on one another and it felt very forced and just boring.
As far as the whole shaky cam thing, and trying to make me(a viewer) believe this was real...absolute failure.
I've enjoyed The blair witch, paranormal activity, abnormal activity, grave encounters....but this, this is not on par...it's rubbish.
I could not keep focus, it was just very boring.

Hmmm, well then. So I went into this not know much about it at all, didn't see so much as a trailer. From the get go I could sense this was going to be a fairly unique movie. It is stylistically superb. Amazing. Artistically this movie is amazing. Visually it's great. The soundtrack is great. All this makes the movie very enjoyable. The story line was only OK. The writing is just OK. The believability is just OK. The acting is, well, some performances are really good(Ryan Gosling), some performances are just OK. I liked that it had some familiar stars(to some), being a big breaking bad and sons of anarchy fan it's nice to see two familiar actors on the big screen, one was good, the other just OK, but both sorta felt like filler. Kinda like these last few lines, too make weight. But no seriously,-do watch this movie. DO! Watch it.
This movie reminded me of 'The Day After Tomorrow' from the get go;It is a natural disaster movie. The setting/environment is a cold climate, covered in snow. The plot is different, but the basic idea is similar. Sure, the plot is quite predictable and it's not entirely 'believable' but no more so than most movies. The special effects were pretty good. The characters and acting were descent as well. No real complaints. I thoroughly enjoyed it. If you are the type of person who will scrutinize over how plausible every detail is in reality you might not enjoy it as much. If you enjoy disaster movies, with good scenery, and go into it just looking for a little entertainment I suspect you won't be too disappointed.
Dude, where's Teddy?...Um, yeah....Most of the movie is basically the same premise(as Dude where's my car)..find Teddy. It wasn't entirely bad, but it was not good either. It was not a comedy so much as it was a mystery, with some action, sprinkled with a hint of comedy. It was not very original and somewhat stereotypical, and by that I mean it reinforces stereotypes/clichés, not so much in a directly derogatory or negative way, just a very boring normal way. Overall a boring movie, an unfunny movie with a few funny moments, but ultimately fails to deliver anything of substance. The hangover 2 is not as good as the first, I'll admit I didn't 'love' the first, but I did enjoy it, this one not so much, watch it if you have the chance, watch it for yourself and make your own opinion; to each their own.
I'm going to be blunt. One of the worst movies I have ever seen. In fact it is so bad you might just need to see for it yourself. You are probably thinking, it can't be that bad, but it is! I really wanted to give this movie a chance because someone told me it was not good, the same person who told me a different movie that I actually enjoyed was not good. I figured we just had different tastes in movies, but this time we both agreed, this movies sucks. It is supposed to be a comedy I think, but it's not funny. I get that it's supposed to be 'crude' and 'over-the-top' and all that but, it's just not funny. It's just plain stupid.
