With "30 minutes or so," the director Ruben Fleischer ("Zombieland") is a structural change in the odd end of the 80 - / action comedy in the early 90-boyfriend.

It follows two couples - one on each side of the law - giving them time to screen approximately equal. (The filmmakers mention "Heat" as an influence.) This is a quick laugh, but biased, B-comedy with a hard R.

Manuscript has been getting some bad press bad taste. It seems to remove the base from 2003 in real-life case of Brian Wells, a pizza driver was forced Wells to rob the bank that men are chained to a bomb around his neck. Wells was killed by a bomb on live TV.

But beyond the installation, "30 Minutes" is not really all that dark. It is mostly an exercise in humor, threw punches, clearly nostalgic for disputes chaos flooded the multiplexes for two decades.

Here, two lazy idiot scuzzballs (Danny McBride, Nick Swardson) Strap a bomb on a pizza delivery slackery slightly lower (Jesse Eisenberg) who takes his school sweetheart (Aziz Ansari) in the plot.

Fleischer has lips "Zombieland" action to take. The movie is not longer than necessary, the cascades of cool cars, and the scenes with Ansari and Eisenberg pop - particularly during laughter strong amateur burglary.

But half of McBride / Swardson the film as something more sinister, does not have the same problems or distributed Ansari tight desperate manic energy - even after Michael Pena appears as a compensation hyperviolence wildcard.

This leaves the right "30 Minutes" feeling (but not fatally) flawed, tragic and comic as it leaves the pizza guy in a sweat.

Ruben Fleischer 30 minutes or less, the film is almost empty the uncertainty in his tone - whether it's how the events of the body slamming each other, and how they are difficult to fit alongside the life out of the screen. You see, it is inspired by the (very, very loosely), the story of Brian Douglas Wells, 46 years, Pizza drivers to communicate the driver, who was involved in a strange 2003 incident in which he was forced - under the remote control bomb related to the chest - to rob a bank and turn the money in his catchers. At first glance, this sounds like it could be the action / Heist / comedy potential, to find that Wells was killed when a bomb exploded, and proved to have been involved in (at least somewhat) with the design of the system . Regardless of the degree of his involvement, I can not imagine his friends and family is too much fun the decision to turn his misfortune to be quirky comedy of the summer.

The writer Michael Diliberti not just use an outline - some of the games themselves detail the reason for this flight, which was to finance the hiring of a hired murderer (played by Michael Peña) bordering the father (Fred Ward ) one of the hijackers (Danny McBride), who then inherit the family fortune. This is where the pizza man Nick (Jesse Eisenberg) is available, is called a remote location for delivery (in this version of history, not in the plan), attached to the bomb vest and said hit the bank and return the money. Nick is a loser without a goal, you just had an argument with his only friend, Chet (Aziz Ansari), but begs her boyfriend to help him get the job, which seems to be your only option.

This was the point where my movie going companion asked, not without reason, "Can not you just, uh, call the police?" And 'one of the big questions that the film clearly does not really want to answer, because the structural integrity of the whole image down to indulge in it, to Nick says that the kidnappers are watching, and that will explode the bomb, if it goes to the police, but in reality these idiots should not follow his phone? Look at his email address? He does not notice the big brown truck that followed him around the city? He could have put them and the police movie'd be more than thirty-minute mark.

Of course, the root problem, and we must all be willing to suspend our disbelief in a movie as stupid as this. But you need to make an informed decision to leave this distraction, and it is more difficult than the film goes, because the director Fleischer (Zombieland) does not make the right decisions about how to tell his story straight. In order for us to make logical leaps that the script requires, we must treat it as a real farce - quite difficult if you know the real story, stronger, when the danger and violence has been an (almost) immediately, and when the comedy turns discomfort from car chases and black as pitch.

But note that even if it is uncertain in its aims, it is a fun film. Most of the laughs come from the presence of Ansari, if Chet is not far from his usual comic character, but whether the measures of the lateral line and inappropriate tangents are welcome. Chet is a college professor, and the only one short scene of him in his classroom is funnier than any bad teachers? "You adult" in his great fight with Nick is childish funny (he asks, incredulous, "You've had. A Lunchables for dinner last night!") and his sidebar in a longer unhappy, fiscal irresponsibility of its Netflix using a murderer (and, let's face says). McBride and Nick Swardson as her co-create a dumb kidnapper-Guy inspired mainly in two acts, even if McBride would be wise to start changing his character just a regular contact, as it started to become monotonous.

Diliberti script and creates a few laughs out of the system purely situational spinning increasingly out of control by the time Pena and Ward have faced off, I remembered (positively) by the great comedy by Lawrence Kasdan unknown I t ' love to death.

This is not the only memory is 80 - and I must say, if you make a big crash violent car chase, at least have the common sense (as Fleischer did) to score with Glenn Frey "The heat is on . "Since this line begins sax, I was tempted to give me more of the film (as a selection of music similar reaction led to an escape perhaps too forgiving), due to an unreasonable affection for the 80 action / comedy. And these films are not very reliable either. However, there are often based on true stories unfortunate, an achievement that comes to the strange conclusion that the precipitate. 30 minutes or less do not know what the resolution would have been more successful - it really happened, or rather the insult, the ends left loose-giant-hanging, 'happy' we have here unfortunately. At this point, there is another irregular heartbeat, in an image that is quite everywhere.

A neurotic housewife named Sally and her husband move into the home business executive Sally, an ominous two-story Victorian mansion. When Sally begins to decorate her pompous decorator who comes across a locked room in the house. After discussions with maintenance staff that says you must leave the locked room, which finally gets the key. But once he opens his father's old study and remove the bricks from the chimney, strange things begin to happen. Sally begins to see small creatures everywhere, but nobody believes it will. Her husband rejected her as neurotic and her friend thinks Sally may be losing my mind. But things take a turn very serious if the decorator trips at the top of the stairs and falls to his death. Carmen sees through a rope that ran, but when he gets up to make a terrible little creature, drawn from his control. Are you crazy? Sally has published or demons in the house, called the demons of his father?

Summary: Sally Hurst, a lonely, withdrawn child, has just arrived in Rhode Island to live with her father Alex and his new girlfriend Kim at the 19th-century mansion they are restoring. While exploring the sprawling estate, the young girl discovers a hidden basement, undisturbed since the strange disappearance of the mansion's builder a century ago. When Sally unwittingly lets loose a race of ancient, dark-dwelling creatures who conspire to drag her down into the mysterious house’s bottomless depths, she must convince Alex and Kim that it's not a fantasy—before the evil lurking in the dark consumes them all. (Miramax Films)

It was understandable, in the seventies, that people can be really shocked to find once concealed his abandoned dream home haunted by history. Today, however, buyers should really do a little research before hiring moving vans.

Again, you are certainly not opposed to a certain suspension of disbelief, if you want to see "Do not be afraid of the dark," Troy Nixey is pleasantly scary remake of a 1973 film of television.

Although nobody in their right mind would give the minutes Blackwood Manor, the gardener turns up dead, Alex (Guy Pearce) and Kim (Katie Holmes) has too much invested to walk away. He is an architect, is an interior designer, and created this crumbling mansion in Rhode Island in hopes of getting the cover of "Architectural Digest".

Unfortunately, the goblins in the basement has other ambitions - first and foremost Alex consume nine year old daughter, Sally (Bailee Madison). When Sally starts to cry in the night, Kim suggests that they wisely decamp to a hotel. But it would not be fun for us, Alex insists they will be added until it is too late to leave.

If you start the "Boo", you can find a lot of jumping here. Just do not expect originality striking, memorable or even scary. Yet every time the "Dark" starts to feel like a thriller generic, is saved by the distinctive stamp co-screenwriter/producer Guillermo del Toro ("Hellboy," "Pan's Labyrinth").

Del Toro has seen the effect size, the spectacle of a little disturbing, stirring psychological web that traps all the creatures living in the house. (Kim role of stepmother to inspire school grad thesis itself.)

Holmes is more difficult to deal with Pearce, it seems that this movie is not worth your best efforts. But the real highlight is Madison, which reverses the terror of Sally with a heartbreaking not to be afraid of monsters, but the cruelty of the parents. Nobody understands better than del Toro as the worst horrors are not designed for children, but created by adults.

A satire of high school which is pretty funny, though far from certain how tough you really want to be. Cameron Diaz plays Elizabeth, a teacher who does not care at all about their work: it is a sex bomb discoloration, permanent hangover or stone, totally indifferent to the education of their students and interested only to hang a wealthy husband. Things heat up when a new teacher called rich and apparently Scott, played by Justin Timberlake, appears and a duel for her affections begins between Elizabeth and Professor Goody-two-shoes Squirrel Amy, played by Lucy Punch. There are many good things here, but not as brutal as Alexander Payne's brilliant choice and the jury exactly how Diaz is fun. It gives the game everything I have, it is good, and really no other casting was possible, but anyway I'm not sure it's a natural comedian.
