The Comic Critic Reviews Just Add Water

Just Add Water is pleasant movie. Well, some of the subjects touched on are not pleasant. But, what is pleasant is the nice even pacing of the film. I enjoy a movie that doesn’t hurry itself and has an even approach to the characters that’s in keeping with the storyline. The grittier moments in the film compliment the dark humor that’s constantly underneath the surface, humor that might look possibly look campy otherwise. And that would spoil the tone of the film. This is a quiet little morality film that doesn’t preach or scream. But, while it might have been overlooked in the theater I don’t think it should be overlooked at home. It’s perfect if you want something a little milder than the normal fair but with plenty of heart.

The Return of Stickman #914

This bit of news came out of a reporter’s interpretation of an interview with the son of the Big Bopper. The real story is a lot less titillating.

The Comic Critic Reviews Keeping Mum and The Return of Stickman #909

A story involving murder doesn’t have to contain huge amounts of suspense or crescendos of violence to be entertaining. Sometimes all you need is a little warm humor and a nice solid whack. Oh, and a sweet endearing little old lady--that helps a lot. And secrets. Yes, murder is all about keeping secrets. Or, at the very least, trying to keep secrets. So, if you want to see a slightly heartwarming film that just happens to contain a murder or two in it, you might want to add Keeping Mum to your list.
