Rogers' Thoughts: COMEDY FILMS

Office Space:

Summary: Office Space was written and directed by Mike Judge. (The creator of Beavis and butthead and King of the Hill.) It is about a man named Peter Gibbins who works in a cubicle filling out TPS reports all day. He has a bad attitude about work and never smiles. His boss Bill lumbergh is a complete dick and says "yeah" before he says anything in a sarcastic tone. Peter gets caught in traffic on his way to work everyday. He honestly just hates his job and his life. He lives next door to an awesome guy who can talk to him thorugh the wall because the wall is so thin. He always tells him to turn to a channel where a girls boobs are showing on T.V. Peters girlfriend wants him to get hipnotized so that he can be happy and be stress free. As he was getting hipnotized the hipnotist died after he counted the three. He wakes up refreshed and happy. He has no worry in the world. He decides to not go to work anymore. He doesn't quit or get fired. He just doesn't show up. Somehow when the two consultants (Bill and Bill) show up, Peter walks in to his interview with flipflops and a hawaiian shirt on. They decide to move him to upper-managment. He is confused because he has been an awful employee for the past few weeks and they are giving him a raise and a bigger office. He works with a couple of cool guys named Micheal Bolton and Samir Nagheenanajar who are softwere engineers for the company. Micheal gets pissed off because he is named after a famous guy and everyone thinks he is related to him. He thinks he is black and listens to gangster rap. (Really he is a pussy). Samir and Micheal have a faz machine that always jams for no reason and they always yell at it and punch it. So when they get fired Peter, Samir and Micheal take the machine and beat the crap out of it with baseball bats and stomp on it; its aobut a three minute scene of them killing this machine. Another guy he works with is Milton. Milton is a really quiet guy throughout the entire movie. He has been working there for five years but he got fired last year but he still shows up and complains about his paycheck not coming in the mail. Bill always makes him move his desk every few days or so. Milton loves his red stapler, its like his best friend and Bill takes it away and throughout the entire movie Milton mumbles under his breathe "im going to burn the building down." he says it about five times. In the end Peter and Samir and Micheal decide to steal three cents from the companies bank account everyday and withing a few years they will be millionaires. Micheal hacked the system and put in three cents perday. The nextday the check how much they got over night. They had got 300,000$ from the companies account. Micheal put the decimal in the wrong spot. Then when they go to give the money back to the company it was on fire. The building burned down to a pile of rubble. Milton did it but the movie never says he did. Milton was never seen again. In the end Peter works with his neighbor and lives life without a worry.

Personal Opinion: Office Space is Halarious. The summary of the movie might not sound very funny but it is super funny. I was laughing the entire time. Getting to know the characters and their personalities was the most fun. They each had something funny about them and had something funny to say. This movie really expresses the daily life for most americans in the working world. They have a dick for a boss, get stuck in traffic, hate the old out dated fax machines and gets ridiculed for doing something wrong. The most funny thing about the whole movie I think is that milton was fired a year ago but he still shows up thinking he has the job but he isn't recieving a paycheck. And for the faxt the Bill has Milton move his desk to the basement of the building and all around the building for no reason. I can tell that as im explaining this movie it doesn't seem that funny but office space is a CLASSIC comedy film that everybody must see. You will laugh guarunteed.
In the end I reccomend this movie to anybody who is in the mood for a good laugh. Everyone can relate to this movie no matter what age. It will crack you up.

Rating: 1 2 3 4 5 I Rate this move a 4.5 out of 5 on the comedy scale.

Super Troopers

Summary: Super Troopers, directed and written by Jay Chandrasekhar was a 2001 best seller. Basically what this movie is about is five cops that mess with people. They pull them over and after they are already pulled over they tell them to pull over. All they really do is play games and get themselves into trouble. It starts off with three stoners in a car smoking weed and taking Shrooms. They are talking about stupid stoner stuff. The cops (Officer Thorny and Officer Rabbit) pull beside the teens and stare them down. One of the kids in the front throws a bag of weed to the kid in the back and tells him to eat it. He eats it and then he throws back a whole bag of mushrooms, which he then eats as well. You can only imagine how high this kid will be. Then he asks him to eat another bag but he tell his to throw it out the window. Right as he drops the bag from the window Thorny slams on the breaks and gets behind them and starts blaring the siren. When they pull over Thorny drives past them really fast and acts like they were never going to pull them over. The kids begin to freak the hell out. All of the sudden the Throny is parked behind them. Then for the kids punishment for littering Thorny told them they had to smoke the whole bag in front of them. Later they pull a guy over and the game they decide to play is the "Meow" game. So everytime he is supposed to say now he replaces it with meow. His goal was to reach ten meows. He does it and the driver get really confused. The five highway police (Thorny, Rabbit, Foster, Mac and Farva) hate the local cops and always get into fists fights with them over pointless stuff. Then they pull over a huge semi-truck and in the back is full of marijuana which they capture and then get an award for. Then they get a letter saying they are going to get shut down unless they start pulling more people over and start making more drug busts. At the end of the movie they get shut down and it cuts scenes to a beer company and Thorny and Rabbit get out and they are delivering a Keg to a house party. The teens from the beginning open the door and they freak out and start running away but they then explain that they are the keg people. Then the teens start messing with them saying we want the keg in that corner but then when they set it down they told them to put it somewhere else. After countless times of messing with them Thorny looks at Rabbit and says are you ready? and Rabbit says Yep! they Rip off the beer uniform and they are in the local cop uniforms and yell SPUBERRY police and the teens get handcuffed. The real local cops get busted for being part of the drug transportation. They were working with the drug people. So the highway police got their jobs. The cops start partying with the kids and drinking alcohol. It is halarious.

Personal Opinion: Super Troopers is one of my favorite comedies. From my summaries they may not seem very funny but it is super funny. The cops are just dicks to people and mess around all day. It is a very volger film with unsuitable language for kids. It is so unrealistic of how cops would act but its cool to see how it would be if cops were really like that. The things that they say are so funny that you will cry of laughter in this film several times. The acting was great in this movie along with really funny scenes and lines. The characters were really detailed and always said something funny. It is just a bunch of friends that are cops messing with people for fun.
Overall, I highly reccomend this movie to people that have a good sense of humor and are over the age of 13.

Rating: 1 2 3 4 5-10 I rate this movie Ten out of Five on the comedy scale!

The Breakfast Club:

Summary: The Breakfast Club is an all time classic directed by John Hughes in 1985. This is more of a Romantic Comedy but its a movie that has to be watched. What happens in this film is five high school teenagers have to attend saturday school all day becasue of something they got in trouble for during the past week. The five teens are, Bender, Andrew, Brian, Allison and Claire. Bender is just a straight up trouble maker and pot head. His father beats him and he doesn't have a mom. He is a poor teen with neglectful parents. That tells you a little bit about why he is the way he is. He disrespects adults and disrespects other students. He is a bully. He is in saturday school for countless reasons. Andrew is a jock. He is a varsity wrestler and sports star. He has a lot of friends but he doesn't like his home life. His father hates him and he only likes him if he Wins. His father always tells him to WIN, WIN, WIN. and if he doesn't win, he doesn't consider him his son. Andrew is in saturday school because he bullied a kid because of peer pressure. He made the kid cry and he told on him. Brian is a nerd/geek. He has straight A's and if he gets any lower grades his dad/parents will disown him. He is in saturday school becasue he brought a flare gun to school and then it went off in his locker. Claire is an extremely popular red headed girl with a high fashion sense. Her home life is great but she thinks its not. She is in saturday school because she skipped class to go on a shopping spree. Allison is just a basket case. She has no friends and has bad grades. She has a ton of dandruff that she needs to fix. She is at satuday school because she had nothing better to do. Those are the five characters of this movie. They are all assigned to write a paper of why they are there and what they will do to prevent it from happening next time. But they all decide to have Brian write all the papers for them because they are all to lazy to write it themselves. During the movie Bender messes with the teacher in charge and calls him a dick and stuff. All that really happens in this movie is they discuss their homelives and complain the whole time. They sneak out of the room to go to Benders locker to get something. Bender gets a big bag of weed and Brian freaks out and disapproves. Then they are trying to get back to the class room but the teacher is walking around the school back to the room that are supposed to be in. They sprint down all the hallways and every turn they take the teacher is right there. So in order for them to get there without getting caught. Bender shoves the pot down Brians underwear and Bender takes off singing "I WANNA BE AN AIRFORCE RANGER!" really lod and the teacher went running after him. They got there safely and then Bender comes back and smart mouths the teacher again. When the teacher goes out of the room, Bender takes gteh weed and goes up to the top floor of the room and starts to lite up a joint. One by one they all follow after him. Brian got peer pressured into going. They all got stoned and danced around. **SPOILER ALERT** eventually Bender and Claire hood up and start to like each other. Allison and Andrew hook up and like each other becasue Claire gave her a make over. Brian was by himself and wrote one big paper for all five of them. They left and they kissed goodbye. You could tell that they liked eachother and they were going to be freidns after one day of satuday school.

Personal Opinion: The Breakfast Club us a must see. It is a full on classic movie. Molly Ringwald played Claire and she plays in a bunch of classic movies like Sixteen Candles, Pretty in Pink and more including the breakfast club. She is a great actor and always will be. The acting in this film was average. It seemed real and easy to follow. It was a Romantic Comedy rather than just a Comedy. I highly reccomend this movie to everybody of all ages. There is some bad language but it is a great movie. The movie made you feel happy and it kind of made you want to go to satuday school. Also i liked to see how different things were in the 80's for high school compared to how it is today.
In the end this is a must see movie with great actors and actresses. I have seen this movie countless times and it doesn't lose any value each time i watch it.

Rating: 1 2 3 4 5 I rate this movie Five out of Five on the Comedy scale/Romantic Comedy scale.

Summary: Step Brothers was a 2008 comedy starring will ferrel and John Reilly. Directed by Adam McKay a comedy director. Right when this movie came out it was an instand hit. It blew the box office away on opening weekend. It was voted americas funniest movie of 2008. It was about two 40 year old men that still lived with their parents. Dale lived with his dad and Brenan who still lived with his mom. The mom and dad met and got married. At first Dale and Brenan hated each other. They didnt know what to think about having a step brother. Dale thinks he is in complete control and tell s him to never touch his things, especially not his drum set.

The Dictator:

Summary: The dictator was directed by Larry Charles and written by Sacha Cohen himself. Sacha is the main character in this film playing the role of "The Dictator." He has written three Comedy movies total. Borat, Bruno and now The Dictator. In this movie he plays as Admeral General Aladeen. He is the Leader of Wadiya (A middle eastern country). He is sent to make a speech with the UN about his Nuclear plans. When he is kidnapped and shaved from his symbolic beard, they have a Aladeen double to go to the UN. The double is told to give the speech that he will write a new constitution and become a Democracy country. When the real Aladeen finds this out he goes nuts. He finds his old friend from Wadiya and he helps him get into the hotel where double aladeen is staying. In order to do that he had to get a job at the resturaunt that is catering the event. He changes completely in the process. He falls in love and becomes kind of sensitive. Either way he bnreaks into the hotel and kills his double by telling him to jump out the window. **SPOILER ALERT** When he is getting ready to sign the constitution that would put Wadiya a democracy he stands up and rips the constitution in half. He starts explaining how dictatorship is so great. By explaining that the rich get incredibly richer by lowered tax money and the poor become worthless. Also he describes how it is living as the leader of Wadiya. He then starts describing dictatorship as a woman. He starts saying that she is beautiful and has armpit hair. She has an amazing body but could lose five pounds. Also he says he is strangly in love with dictatorship. When really he is describing a girl he fell in love with while he was working for the catering store. She falls in love with him back. In the end they both move back to Wadiya and they decide to get married. When they kiss she stomps on a glass. People from a Jewish background do this. Aladeen hates jewish people and when he hugs her he uses his finger and moves it back and fourth which stands for the person he is doing it to, to then be executed.

Personal Opinion: Sacha Cohen has been one of my favorite actors and movie writers since he wrote the film Borat. He is simply halarious. Although this movie was NOT as good as i had hoped. It had some funny scenes and funny lines throughout the entire movie. I only acutally really laughed once or twice. The other times i kind of giggled and moved on. He says some funny things that make you laugh the whole time but its nothing super funny or memorable. I was disappointed with the lack of comedy in the movie. Compared to Borat it was barly funny. Personally i think Sacha Cohen needs to be done writing films because he is lacking the humor that he needs like in Borat.
Over all it was a pretty good and funny film. I dont think you should waste your time watching it in theatres. Wait for DVD and watch it at your house with a bunch of your friends. I assume it would be funnier with all of your friends because you will feed off of eachothers laughter. I recommend this film to every Sacha Cohen fan because i feel that it is Necassary to see all of his movies.

Rating: 1 2 3 4 5 I rate this movie 3 out of five on the scale
