Kripendorf's Tribe. That thing is pure gold.

Bottoms.

The script feels terrible and they don't even try to make you like the characters. But the jokes always land perfectly. It's a great movie to have a laugh and nothing else.

The Sweetest Thing came off as a pretty saccharine rom-com. It was more like American Pie for late-20s.

"Decoy Bride" looks like once of those cheap, filler movies that actors do between big roles, and it probably was, but David Tennant, Kelly MacDonald, and Alice Eve gave great performances, the jokes really hit, soundtrack was good, and the romance didn't feel forced at all.

Mile 22. Died at the box office and I'd heard nothing but bad things about it. Saw a DVD at the library and a stranger suggested it to me.

Seriously good thriller with action, intrigue, and some great acting.

Population 436, kind of a revamp of The Lottery but it does things a bit different along the way. It actually has Fred Durst as a cast member and he killed his role I think.

April Fool's Day

Disco Polo

It's a very unserious movie and that's what makes it work. It's just pure Polish nostalgia-based comedy with nothing to prove

No idea, but Happy Death Day looked interesting enough that I went to see it in the cinema.

#50 box office that year, 4.8M to produce, so pretty good.
