"Nacho Libre" (Hess Bros. Project)

Started by Ya Krunk'd Floo2 pages

I finally saw Nacho Libre last night. I laughed quite a few times, and it was a very cute movie. I loved every face Jack Black pulled, they were all perfect.

It's not a great movie, but it's fun and nicely played.

I saw this movie a couple months ago.

Needless to say... it was horrible.

I laughed at a few scenes, but mostly just thought it tried to hard to be abstract and failed.

The pros:
- Jack Black in lots of scenes.

The cons:
- Everything else. And I mean that pretty literally.

I saw it when it came out. I might've laughed once the whole movie.

I have very little faith in a movie starring Jack Black. He's funny, but only in small doses (Orange County, Saving Silverman).

If you know that you only like Jack Black in small doses why the hell would you watch a movie he headlines?

Seems like an exercise in futility, if ever there was one.

(There was)

Friends and coworkers were raving about it to me. I respect them enough to give it a chance.

And I can't very well say for sure it's bad if I've never seen it, can I?

If I only liked Jack Black in small doses, then I probably wouldn't watch a movie where he is the main character. My brain would tell me not to, and I would obey.

This is one of those films you can watch on cable tv on a boring lazy afternoon sunday.

Yeah, I'd go along with that. It's a nice, cute movie. Nothing more.
