Ahoy, matey! Frasier on the high seas!

Kelsey Grammer stars as commander Dodge, in a perfect casting for this goober comedy. The classic rag tag team comes together for shenanigans on their way to victory over the cool kids. An all star buffet of comedic talent, in a well written comedy. Extremely quotable and enjoyable hour and a half at the home cinema. Just the right amount of heart to go with the penis tattoo. So, shove off, and set sail with this naughty nautical navigation of naval warfare.

“Everybody Wants Some”

One of the all time great coming of age college movies. Reminiscent of “American Pie” and “Animal House.” A tale of brotherhood. An adorable love story. Sports. Every stereotypical college bar and party. Endless debauchery. Laughs for days. Amazing soundtrack. This movie has it all! A hidden cinematic gem with a high rewatchability factor. Perfectly captures the spirit of welcome weekend, and ends up being a damn fun 2 hours.

The most I’ve seen a crowd react to a movie in a long time! What I thought was going to be a “Taken” rip-off turned out to be so much more. We laughed, we cried, we cheered… This movie really came out of nowhere to be surprisingly brilliant. Bravo Neeson!

The trailer looked hilarious, the premise was there, the jokes were there… Just couldn’t land the plane. This film seemed to suffer from friendly fire, as it would build hilarious moments that these raunchy coming of age movies are known for, and then kill the momentum with a lecture. There are strong female lead characters, and then there is whatever category these two fall into by the conclusion of the flick. The film would get you laughing, and then lecture you for laughing. Very strange clash of tones. Meh…

Yes, you read that right… This one knocked it out of the park! I loved the first one, and this is a rare sequel that actually ups the game of the franchise. You’ll experience the full range of emotions, and be on the edge of your seat for the entire runtime. Very well done! BONUS: Jessica Rothe is 😍😍😍. That is all.
