So, I went to see 'The Perfect Catch' yesterday. (It pains me how incredibly uncool and behind KNCC is...)but that is a cute with a capital Q movie!
Ok, first of all, Jimmy Fallon is frickin' adorable in this movie! kinda geeky at times, but very reminiscent of his characters on Saturday Night Live... Goofy, sweet and adorable-funny. Don't get me wrong, the guy is no Will Ferrel, but this role fits him well. In the words of my mom: "It doesn't stretch his acting abilities." Don't know if that's a compliment or an insult...
Secondly, any movie with Drew Barrymore is fine by me. The girl is beyond like-able. She's the girl you wish your best friend would be more like! And she's also the kind of girlfriend you wish you could be more like :P She has some funny scenes in this movie!
The storyline is only so-so. The film is adapted from the Nick Hornby (is that the right spelling?? ) novel Fever Pitch. And so, anybody not familiar with the story of the 'Curse of the Bambino' will not get some of the more Baseball-y jokes. There's this one Ted Williams reference and I swear to God my mom and I were the only ones laughing... Awkward.
All in all, it's a good movie. Definately Laugh Out Loud funny. Also, I personally think that the sign of a good movie is how many people leave the theater before the movie is over... only two people in a packed theater left this one... and I think it's b/c she had the runs... I saw some definate a** covering going on....
