The Weather Manmade in 2005
rated R
Justin: This film is fantastic. Despite all the obvious product placement (which there is so much it's almost just a two hour ad, for Wendy's, Arby's, McDonalds and so on). This movie is hilarious. Nicoloas Cage's character, for me, is such a loveable idiot. He tries so hard, yet never gets passed what he wants for his family and never actually gets to what they want. So much hilarity in this movie, I might throw up. ****
Jesse: I tried watching this movie once and wasn't too impressed, I must admit. It's so sad, and I hated the Weather Man so much that I couldn't finish the movie. But, this time around, I loved it. The humor is my favorite kind, subtle and dry. This time I didn't hate Nicholas Cage's character, David Spritz, I felt really bad for him. He's unbelievably lonely, and he has no idea how to deal with it. True, he handles it in all the wrong ways, and says and does all the wrong things, but this time around, I really sympathized with him. I also finished the movie this time and the ending totally redeems the rest of it for me. *****
