You’re
probably asking, “What the hell is this movie?!?” Let me answer
that; only one of the funniest yet original movies I’ve seen in a long
time. It’ll be hard to describe, in words, the utter lunacy that the
story represents, but I’ll try. The story takes place in a
post-apocalyptic world (or at least that’s what they tell us in the
beginning of the film) where in this small town, there are two rival
factions vying for control, and they do battle by playing Beat Beat
Revolution, which is Dance Dance Revolution. Yes, they really do that
and yes, it’s funny as hell. In the beginning of the movie, the leader
of one of the factions was killed during a dance off and his older
brother “J-Tro” becomes devastated and withdraws completely from
trying to get control and becomes a lumberjack. Since becoming a
lumberjack, control has shifted and J-Tro’s friend tries to convince
him to come back to the FP, fight back and take revenge.
Of
course, there are other parts to the movie such as a love interest,
training montages, and even a gun fight, but nothing compares to the
language that is used in the movie. I just could not get over the amount
of slang that was utilized. The slang was so thick, I had to adjust the
way I was listening to comprehend what they were trying to say. I also,
couldn’t tell how much of this movie was scripted and how much of this
was adlibbed, but the language used by-itself makes it worth seeing
because it was over utilized to the point of becoming stuff of legend.
I
was fortunate enough to see this movie at midnight with my friends at
one of the most storied theaters in Minneapolis and I think that
contributed to my fondness of the movie. More than half of the theater
was filled with guys (90% of the audience were guys), that were in their
late 20’s and 30’s, and we were all cracking up throughout the
movie. The comedy stems from a lot of clichés and stereotypes people
have of the younger generation that are currently in junior high or even
high school.
The
characters really make the movie interesting. “L Dubba E,” One of
the best protagonists I’ve seen a long time, played by
Lee Valmassy, was acted out so well, it wouldn’t’ surprise me if he
receives more roles in the future. His delivery, his gestures, his eyes,
and the best part, his facial expressions just screams, “I’m the bad
guy,” to me, he’s the best characterhe whole movie. All the other
characters are just as laughable but not done nearly as well.
Keep
in mind, before seeing this movie, note, that it’s supposed to be
ridiculously funny. The story is pretty bad, the elements are pretty
bad, the acting is actually okay, the location is very questionable, the
characters are actually quite excellent, the quality is top notch, but,
it is a bad movie and should not be taken seriously in any manner and
that’s why I recommend it. Buy this movie and invite all of your
friends over because when this movie gets viewed in a group, it makes it
that much better.
