"DON'T Be Kind & Rewind!"
|
I just saw the 1st film of 2008 that I can now add that will start off my "Worst Films of 2008" list!
"Be Kind Rewind" is a pathetic new piece of whimsy from the cult fantasist Michel Gondry.
Let see Jack Black (In a role that just bugged me the wrong way) lives in a junk yard & is certian a nearby power plant is controlling his actions, attacks it one night and gets magnetized. Then it gets weirder. But not in a good way either. When Jerry vists his friend Mike who works in a dying VHS store, he erases every tape in the place. When a customer Miss Falewiz (Mia Farrow)wants a copy of "Ghostbusters", Mike has the idea of Re-Making the film with the help of Jerry. From this point the film spirals out of control. Since other cutstomer start wanting other films, Mike & Jerry decide to make more too!
There is also a subplot involving Mr Fletcher (Danny Glover) going out and finding out why other rental stores have better business,
Mr Fletcher trying to save his buisness from being closed & condos being put up in it's place.
By the end, dullsville!
