31 Posts Of Halloween: Tucker And Dale VS Evil

Tucker And Dale VS Evil is a 2010 horror parody, which is probably one of my favorite parodies out there to date.

Tucker And Dale VS Evil is a parody of the cabin in the woods style of horror flick. The film opens to some teens going on vacation, camping. The teens stop at a gas station and while there they are approached by two hillbillies who creep them out. Now here's where the movie gets interesting, the film switches perspectives to the hillbillies point of view, and thus we follow Tucker and Dale. Tuck and Dale are simply going to there new vacation home up in the woods. There new home is an old cabin, which they decide to repair. The film switches between the point of view of Tucker and Dale and the teens multiple times in the film, and that's where we see the "horror" tropes play out. One of the teens is knocked unconscious and Tucker and Dale try to help her, but the other teens think they kidnapped her. Thus we go forward into one of my favorite parodies.
So, Tucker And Dale VS Evil is an extremely funny film at parts, and I highly recommend watching this one. Sure there are a couple of meh parts in the film but that doesn't detract from the overall viewing experience.
The actors beautifully deliver the comedy in the film naturally, and I applaud them for their efforts. Pretty much all the actors did a great job in Tucker And Dale VS Evil, and I couldn't see them changing the cast in any way.
I've heard rumors of a sequel film, but so far nothing much has come of it as of writing this. I hope they make one!
If you haven't seen Tucker And Dale VS Evil, this is a must see! There are a barrel of laughs to be had, and this film is rewatchable. My friends and I love watching this film together, because we always know we will get some good laughs out of it! I said it before and I'll say it again, Tucker And Dale VS Evil is a must see movie!

final score: 4/5

Uncharted Movie Review

Uncharted Movie Review Not As Good As The Games I went and saw the movie Uncharted a while ago, and it was as I expected it to be. If you are a fan of the games, well... prepare for disappointment. Uncharted follows Nathan Drake (Tom Holland), a low level thief as he is recruited by Victor Sullivan (Mark Wahlberg) to go on a treasure hunt. As someone who has played some of the games, but not all, I have to say that the Uncharted film is what I thought it would be. A mishmash of all four games but not committing to any of them. The acting is a bit stale, and the plot is predictable. The camera work was fine, but the music was underused. Tom Holland should not have been Nathan Drake. He lacks the charisma, the attitude, and the charm. He may have passed for a teenage Nathan Drake, but he should have only been in a few scenes. I'm not the biggest fan of Tom Holland either long time readers may know. Now, onto Mark Wahlberg as Victor Sullivan. Mark Wahlberg is way too young to be playi...

Dora and the Lost City of Gold Movie Review

Dora and the Lost City of Gold Movie Review This Was My Dad's Idea Well... I went and saw Dora and the Lost City of Gold today with my dad, and... the film was a lot funnier than it has any right to be. Dora and the Lost City of Gold is a live action adaptation of the Dora tv show on Nickelodeon. Dora, now a teenager, is sent to the City to live with her cousin, Diego, while her parents go exploring for a lost City. When her parents go missing, Dora and her new friends go and search for her parents. I can't believe I'm going to say this, but the movie wasn't half bad. There is a ton of tongue and cheek humor. There is some cringe to the Dora and the Lost City of Gold too, but remember, this is a movie made for kids. As a kids film, it does a fine job. The acting was fine, and for a kids film, everyone did alright. Isabela Moner, who played Dora, did a good job portraying the character from what I remember about the show when I was very young. What surprised...

Coda Movie Review

Coda Movie Review This Deserved Best Picture So, I just got back from seeing Coda, and it was amazing! This was the second attempt to see this film as the first time, someone booked the entire theater for a private screening. I'm going to take from a summary from IMDB to summarize the plot: " As a CODA (Child of Deaf Adults) Ruby is the only hearing person in her deaf family. When the family's fishing business is threatened, Ruby finds herself torn between pursuing her passion at Berklee College of Music and her fear of abandoning her parents." The acting was phenomenal, the cinematography was beautiful, and the story was human. The way this film is crafted is nothing short but excellent. I will not that not everything is 100% accurate, but for narrative reasons, I understand the choices they made. The actors have amazing chemistry together. Everything feels natural between them and they all bring their characters to life. No per...
