Dodgeball!

We went out with the guys at work yesterday to see Spiderman 2 but we were no match for the insanity that is Tuesday nights at the cheapest movie theatre in town in the summer.

Sadly, Spiderman 2 was sold out, but the guys picked Dodgeball to go see. We went in not expecting much, but holy cow, it was a funny movie. The guys were laughing their heads off at the silly slapstick dodgeball antics and I was having fun catching a lot of the really quick in-jokes (like the treasure chest at the end with Deus Ex Machina stamped on the side.)

Oscar-winning, the film is not. However, if you like really, really stupid movies like Dumb & Dumber or Zoolander, this'll be right up your alley. I did find the first 20-30 minutes kind of dull, but once they got into the dodgeball, it just rocked.

And the whole wrench scene was hilarious. Ah...

I still want to see Spiderman 2 though... Sigh...
