Most undeservingly overhyped movie of all time??
... View MoreAt first rather annoying in its heavy emphasis on reenactments, this movie ultimately proves fascinating, simply because the complicated, highly dramatic tale it tells still almost defies belief.
... View MoreThis is ultimately a movie about the very bad things that can happen when we don't address our unease, when we just try to brush it off, whether that's to fit in or to preserve our self-image.
... View MoreAmazing worth wacthing. So good. Biased but well made with many good points.
... View MoreThis is one of the most enjoyable romps I have ever seen. An excellent and difficult production, bolstered by a great performance by Yahoo Serious. I have watched this move many times and never tire of it. It is always fresh, alive and funny. What is most heart-warming about the film is that Mr. Einstein never really puts his goal ahead of the present moment, which he always lives to the maximum. Serious's unassuming naivety in matters of deception or mundane issues makes his character all the more likable, and at the end, when he grounds and defuses a nuclear reactor by means of a home-made electric guitar, there-by saving the world, we are all cheering for him. One of the best and most eccentric comedies ever. It will appeal to the "otherworldly" people, the world-over.
... View MoreThe words: stupid, boring, senseless, and unfunny come to mind.I can find something positive to say about most movies, but this is the only movie I've ever walked out of in my 43 years of life.The problem is primarily with the script, but having Yahoo Serious telegraphing every (questionable) punchline doesn't help. Essentially, the entire movie revolves around this nut-bag splitting the beer atom. Assuming you can suspend belief in the periodic table, the entire script doggedly revolves around the impossible premise, which does nothing to enhance the unlikely and inane adventures of the thoroughly unlikable, obviously-deficient (but supposedly genius) slacker, Yahoo Serious, as he attempts to patent the discovery.If your IQ is higher than 50, do NOT see this movie.
... View MoreThis was one of the first movies I ever saw at the cinema and I loved it. Yahoo Serious comes from the same suburb as me here in Newcastle, and this is one of his best roles. Plenty of slapstick and one-liners, it is a light and amusing film that suits any age.There's plenty of appearances from aussie personalities, ranging from musicians to comedians, as well as lots of local landmarks around newcastle and sydney. Keep an eye out for the "cat pie", a delicacy in the mental asylum in which the main character is placed.Beware: the movie is quite 'aussie', Brits and Yanks may have a hard time with some of it ;)
... View MoreI just saw the movie on Starz. Although it was corny and I can see why many didn't like it, I just couldn't stop laughing. Whether the jokes were good or bad, I laughed and that is good enough for me to say it was good. I was also surprised by how well done it was. I mean the quality was excellent. I guess if I was in a bad mood the movie wouldn't be half as good, but I thought it to be very enjoyable and would recommend for a movie for the parents and kids to enjoy. Of course everything in it is historically incorrect but that's the fun part. I give Yahoo Serious a lot of credit for making this a good flick. But I wouldn't go as far to say it was the best movie of all time and a beautiful piece of art but a movie doesn't have to be beautiful to be good. I at least got a rise out of it and would rather watch this 20 times than to see Justin and Kelly. I hope whoever is interested or already saw it will/did too.
