I think that this might be our first video review and I like it. It is kinda like those joint reviews that we used to do, but it makes more sense seeing the people talking about it, than reading it.

As for the film, I am not surprised by WLC's -16 rating. it did not look that organized from the commercials and it just looked bad. But I am glad that you found cushy seats.

i had a bad feeling about this film from the first time i saw a preview. it looked like the producers had some very general ideas ("cavemen are funny" and "the Bible is funny") and tried to make a movie from just that. since the premise is lazy, it's not surprising that the movie is lazy too.

Michael Cera looked great as usual, but his character looked a little surprised and dismayed that he was even in this movie at all, which he does so well.

Thumbs up for the video review thing. it needs some ironing out, but i definitely like the idea, and would like to see more of them.
