I'm Still Here (I) (2010)
7/10
Not Bad if you are comfortable with cringe
9 December 2010
One of the reviews that I read here said that this movie portrayed Joaquin as a completely unlikeable guys. Not a guy that you wanted to dislike, but one that you wanted to like but just couldn't…. And I could not agree more.

I gave the movie 7 stars, not because I liked it, but because I was so uncomfortable with all the cringe moments and the astounding stupidity at which our guy proceeds with all of his "choices". In other words, I gave it 7 stars because it smacked of some uncomfortable truth. Not all people will be that guy, but with enough money and "A" kissing from sycophants, a lot of people would become "that guy" (the guy that has toadies that will do whatever he says without question but hate him for asking because what he is asking for makes no sense or is completely, ridiculously stupid).

I Don't know Joaquin, so I have no idea if that was who he was or if this was fake or real… But regardless, he did a great job with this.

My husband seemed to really like this one… His take (and one that I like better than my own) was that this was a bunch of guys that seemed to really like each other and wanted to have a good time making a goofy movie about a stupid goofy guy…. In short, a bunch of dudes f^*king around… Joaquin was his own Michael Scott….
