Casa De Mi Padre
Thursday, 22 March, 2012
Hola mis amigos, esta es la reseƱa de "Casa de mi Padre". Casa de mi Padre is the third installment of Will Ferrell's every-man trilogy (Anchorman, Ricky Bobby, and now Casa) and this was a great way to close it out. What was this movie about? It was Will Ferrell doing a 1970's style telenova in Spanish and that's all I'm going to say about that. I feel if you go into this movie with any sort of expectation then you may find a bit of disappointment. You really need to walk in, let yourself go, and just enjoy all the things that are happening around you. The thing that really made this film so great was how terrible it was. It was purposefully made with badly painted backgrounds, misplaced mannequins, wardrobe changes where they weren't supposed to be, and random scene cuts. All of these made the story that much more hilarious. The execution of these "bad filming techniques" is what made it funny instead of having to make too many jokes in the story and script itself; this allowed the comedy to not go too far but still leave everyone in the theater cracking up. I would say go and see Casa de mi Padre in the theaters because it is built for the big screen more so than for home. But, like I said before, don't go into it thinking that it will be another Anchorman; and because it's not another Anchorman level of funny I give Casa de mi Padre 4 Scorpion Beers out of 5!
