SUPER FUZZ (Released World-Wide 1980)*

Ben Meyers’ Rating: 3.9|5.0 Starsììì Super Fuzz—not a quality watch but cutely comical—entertains even though it relies on a predictable storyline. It completely satisfies Terence Hill fans.   Film Poster Courtesy of Wikipedia Storyline A policeman gets superpowers from a plutonium bomb.  Additional Thanks Thank you to Director Sergio Corbucci for directing effort. Thank you to Producers Vittorio Galiano and Josi W. Konsi for making the film possible. Cast includes Terrence Hill, Ernest Borgnine, Joanne Dru, and Marc Lawrence. Buy a ticket? Yes? No? Maybe?  Yes. Ernest Borgnine and Terence Hill make a good casting choice for this Italian film.

DID YOU HEAR ABOUT THE MORGANS? (Theatrical Release USA 2009)

Ben Meyers’ rating: 1.7|5.0 Starsì

Did You Hear About the Morgans? A movie critic may be at a loss as where to start. Well, let’s start with Sarah Jessica Parker. She is so off the wall in this movie that the other actors cannot function well. The movie does not portray the acting talents of Sarah Jessica Parker, Sam Elliott, Mary Steenburgen, and Hugh Grant well. The dialogue is poor; camera shots pitiable (i.e., the scenes where the ‘bad guy’ is finally caught). The writer and director, Marc Lawrence, seems to have formulated a strangulated relationship between his roles. His end product shows that fact. This movie is a total drop in the bucket, seriously.
