Probe Movie Reviews
by J.J. Krueger


  Serendipity

What's up? Today's movie review is Serendipity, the new movie starring John Cusack and Kate Beckinsale and directed by Peter Chelsom, director of a bunch of movies that nobody's ever heard of. What the fuck is up with John Cusack and the chick flicks lately? Either his panties are riding up on him or his bra strap is cutting off the air to his brain or something. Like that America's Sweethearts movie where we're supposed to believe that he'd dump the totally hot Catherine Zeta-Jones to get with Julia Roberts. Yeah -- that'd fucking happen. I totally don't get why everybody says Julia's so hot. I mean, sure -- if she was, like, standing right in front of me at a party or something, I mean, I'm sure I'd be all like, "Hey! What's up, Julia," and offer her a bong hit or a Leinenkugel or something, but fuck, man, she's got teeth like a horse. I'd probably try to look down her shirt when she was pulling one off the old Graffix though.

Anyhow, Serendipity stars John Cusack as this girly guy who meets Kate Beckinsale, and then they break up to see if fate or something will bring them back together I guess. I suppose it's like that Sting song about if you love somebody then set them free, even though that never made any fucking sense to me. My roommate Dobie loves his dog (not like *that*, though) but I don't see him letting Otto run away just to see if he'll maybe come back. That's just fucking stupid, I think. Then again, I always hated Sting so there you go. Have you ever listened to Ten Summoners Tales? That fucking CD sucks. Karen, the total bitch I work for at Big Burger, used to play that CD all the time and it made me want to puke. God, I hate Karen. She's a fucking vegan but she works at Big Burger -- how much fucking sense does that make? She wears lots of leather too, so apparently it's bad to eat animals but wearing their hides is totally okay in her fucking rosy little universe. She keeps talking about moving to Portland -- I should buy her a fucking one-way on Amtrak. As soon as I'm promoted to assistant manager though, she'll have to quit bugging me all the time.

They said Serendipity doesn't have any violence or drugs or nothing, so I just can't recommend the flick. Hopefully they'll have it in a few weeks at the Cine5. I give it 1 J out of a possible 9 J's. So till next time, see you kids at the flix.


Confidential to Jean B.: No, YOU suck!!!!!!!!!
