Intentionally stupid, cartoonishly gory, sarcastic, inconsistently laugh-out-loud funny, often vulgar, slightly historically inaccurate, and probably a half hour longer than it needs to be. America: The Motion Picture is big dumb satirical historical nonsense… and it knows it. It revels … Continue reading
Parallel is a decent idea for a movie that is funny and peppy… and then it’s neither of those things. I don’t think it did enough damage to itself to be unwatchable, but when you feel distracted and bored when … Continue reading
