Bad Moms, a review by addicted2dvd

My Thoughts: This one I have been curious about every since I first saw the trailer. Not do much for the film itself... as it looked like it could easily go either way... but because I am a fan of multiple actresses in this one. I found the film to be enjoyable but nothing special. I found it to be worth the time put in to watch it... but it is not I see myself watching often. I found the interviews with the actresses real life mothers during the end credits as entertaining as the film itself. Rating: (From Within My Lifetime: 2017 Edition on January 9th, 2017) Hellzapoppin', a review by AntaresHellzapoppin' (1941) 60/100 - From my perspective, this film has two things working for it, and two things working against it. In the plus column you have Mischa Auer and the amazingly talented Martha Raye, whom I have a newfound respect for. Take her out of the film and it sinks like a stone. But, working against it are Olsen & Johnson and Jane Frazee & Robert Paige as the love interests. Olsen & Johnson are a poor man's Abbott & Costello. They have no schtick, they just occupy the frame space, and when they're there, you can't wait for the movie to get back to Auer & Raye. Frazee & Paige are two doormats onscreen and once again, cue Auer & Raye please. It was probably a pretty daring film back in 1941, but time has not been kind to it. Almost all of the jokes fall flat. I counted one gag that I laughed at, and that was the joke with Auer wanting more bread. It wasn't a great gag, but I did chuckle, because Auer had great comedic timing. For a movie that clocks in at only 80 minutes, it dragged a lot. That is, except for the best scene in the film, the "staff" doing the "Lindy Hop' dance routine. Wow! I repeat WOW!!! Teal = Masterpiece Dark Green = Classic or someday will be Lime Green = A good, entertaining film Orange = Average Red = Cinemuck Brown = The color of crap, which this film is (From Antares' Short Summations on July 11th, 2020) Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles: The Complete First Season marathon, a review by addicted2dvdDisc 3: NOTE: need to do another quick week... 7. The Demon Hand Not bad... definitely a decent episode... but for some reason I felt like I wanted more. 8. Vick's Chip Pretty cool episode... I enjoyed the storyline this one has. 9. What He Beheld Maybe not the best of season finales.... but I did enjoy it... and liked the cliffhanger they had. Over-all Season Thoughts: Over-all I still enjoyed this series quite a bit. But I am a little concerned. I didn't enjoy it nearly as much as I did the first time watching it. So for me at least I am wondering how much re-play value this series will have.
