I review the unsurprisingly awful "Fool's Good" at the Trend site, and at the slightly better, direct-to-DVD comedy "Blue State" at North Star.
Last night I saw "Definitely, Maybe," which was quite good, even though it borrowed its title from an Oasis album and its premise from the considerably more brilliant "How I Met Your Mother." I like Ryan Reynolds as a leading man, setting his romantic foibles against those of Bill Clinton throughout the '90s was inspired, and you really can't go wrong when the three female leads are Elizabeth Banks (good), Isla Fisher (better) and Rachel Weisz (best).
The strangest thing, though: the male lead's character was named "Will Hayes"- also the name of the notorious leader of the censorious Hollywood Production Code office in the 1930s, which is the subject of a well-received recent book by my college film professor, Thomas Doherty. No idea what the two Will Hayes have in common, but I can tell that, due to a bizarrely out-of-place lesbianism subplot, the movie would NOT have been Code-approved.
