19. Frequently Asked Questions About Time Travel

19. Frequently Asked Questions About Time Travel
Rated:NR
Released: 2009
Starring: Chris O'Dowd, Anna Faris, Marc Wooten, Dean Lennox Kelly
Format Watched in: HBO GO

I will watch any non Scary Movie franchise movie that Anna Faris is in.  She is criminally underrated as a comedic actress and more often than not her movies have heart that I am not sure I would be able to see if she wasn't involved.  However with FAQ that isn't entirely the case.  No instead this movie is mostly carried by O'Dowd who is quickly becoming a comedic force all his own after I.T. Crowd and his turn in Bridesmaids.  You know the part in Looper where Bruce Willis and Joseph Gordon-Levitt are in the diner and JGL is trying to wrap his head around time travel and Bruce Willis essentially tells him to shut up and he's not going to get into it because it's too weird and complicated?  Yeah this movie is essentially all the stuff Bruce Willis didn't want to talk about.  It embraces all the weird and convolutedness of time travel and it manages to make you laugh the whole way through.  Find this movie and love it as much as I did.

Rating: B+
