American High School (2009)
Finally... a movie that is insulting to the eyes and ears
This film is without a doubt one of the worst movies I have ever seen.
The acting is so unbelievably bad. A second grade class musical has more convincing line delivery than any of these actors manage to achieve. The directing makes most youtube videos look like Citizen Kane. They could have saved a lot of money and went straight for a crew members cell phone without the cinematography losing a thing. The soundtrack is a listing of generic rock sounds. This is all without saying a thing about the plot, or as it should be known in this movie, the loosely pieced story that is just an excuse to show breasts and try as hard as possible to appeal to all of the teenage sensibilities. I don't know how much anyone got paid to be involved in this movie, but it was too much. Suffice it to say, all copies of this movie be destroyed immediately.
Humboldt County (2008)
Creative Film, Good Performances
This is one of the better movies I have seen lately. A coming of age story in the same vein as Garden State, this film has a rarely found mixture of comedy and drama that doesn't disappoint in either realm.
Jeremy Strong plays Peter very well, but the breakout performances come from Chris Messina and Madison Davenport.
Messina is able to show his character's confusion and frustration in trying to provide his daughter with the best possible life. The scene where Max encounters Peter shows the depth that this actor has.
Great Movie, great soundtrack. If you want a smart film with good performances, this movie is it.
