popcorn, Simon Pegg

Conveniently, the title says it all !

Watched this purely because of Pegg (since I dislike Schwimmer), and was quite refreshingly surprised by how good it is. Pegg is brilliant as usual, but the writing and soundtrack are also very good. Had some laugh-out-loud funny moments.

The first half is quite entertaining and has a few solid laughs. The second half is flat and you just wait for the plot to resolve itself. For passing the time.

Really enjoyed this flick, the comic relief moments were well spaced, and once it gets going you move to the edge of your seat and don't move back until the credits! Schwimmer and Pegg are outstanding, as expected, pulling some really dark, intense scenes off to perfection.

Eglenceli bir cinayet filmi.

David Schwimmer is hilarious. I'm pretty sure I act better than him. God he's bad. Avoid this movie at all cost.

a lively situational comedy that draws most of it's appeal from a supremely solid script, and some bang up performances. it's one of those comedies where nearly all the laughter comes from things going wrong, with a little bit of a step up on the chuckles it would have been simply amazing.

A big fuss over nothing.

A surreal escapade into a world portrayed using a whole host of characters who have more in familiar with adult comic book villains than anything else. It makes for an interesting mix, with Schwimmer being thrown into gradually more and more surreal situations, mostly with the encouragement of Pegg. As the Big Nothing gradually degenerates into madness and the situations get more and more out of hand you find youreself intrigued by such a mad universe, although the ending feels a little hollow.

weird film, weird fucking ending

Hilarious first two thirds, sadly falls flat quite massively at the end...

Surprisingly good dark comedy featuring much David Schwimmer... Sort of a weak ending, but otherwise pretty great.

A refreshing movie about problems that keep getting more complicated and perhaps about love? A very nice plot and characters. Seeing crime as something that moves, spreads, dies and goes from ordinary people to ordinary people is something that lifts the film up above mediocre.

Average. I maybe a bit biased here because I dislike David Schwimmer's acting face and his droning voice but this also has the misfortune of not having a cohesive plot or a capable director. The only saving grace here is Simon Pegg, and he is brilliant here, so if you're a fan of Mr Pegg, definitely watch this, if not, then don't.

lives from simon pegg, but its quite entertaining and has a decent soundtrack

Do you like plot twists? If so, holy shit do I have a movie for you!

By far one of my favorite dark comedys. At times you'll be laughing and feeling like an asshole for it.

Watched this movie twice and I remember nothing.

An entertaining ride through the art of the con, with a strong script, a fine plot, and acting that- while not much better than mediocre- doesn't get in the way of a strong crime comedy.
