Review - Bigger Stronger Faster



This documentary borrows a lot stylistically from Michael Moore's efforts, but avoids the pitfalls of descending into the polemic that Moore often does.

The documentary presents the case for and against 'roid use - not exactly saying they're good, but highlighting their vilification against the contradictions present in ideologies from western culture towards other drugs and what it takes to achieve success in general.

Review - Pineapple Express



The excellent combination of James Franco and Seth Rogen make this film a success, but its still far from perfect - Hot Fuzz offers a better parody of action films and there are stoner comedies with a better focus (for the lack of a better word) on p...(read more) ot-based humour. Craig Robinson once again also shows he's one to look out for, stealing many of the scenes he features in - he should be the one to fill the Mac sized void in the mainstream in my view.

Review - Step Brothers



Painfully unfunny for too long, too often - this is one of the worst Will Ferrell films that comes across as a poor man's Dumb & Dumber for the most part.
