Hello Robbie .
Rob says:
Hello Berlinda.
Berlinda says: Today we are here to review "What's The Worst That Could Happen?", a comedy starring Martin Lawrence, Danny DeVito, and other supporting actors like John Leguizamo and Bernie Mac. This movie was funny, but not as funny as I thought it was going to be. The commercials definitly made it look funnier. Or maybe I went into it with very high expectations. Either way I was a little disappointed.
Rob says:
:-0
Well well, we jumped into this one head first didn't we? No jovial banter, no quirky quips, no moody mudslinging?
Berlinda says:
Ok, you wouldn't know a good movie from a hole in your head.
Rob says:
Atta girl!
Berlinda says:
Thank you, thank you.
Rob says:
And you know what?
Berlinda says:
What?
Rob says:
You smell like moldy CHEESE!!! EWWWW!
Berlinda says:
Ok, now that we got that out of the way, you nincompoop, what did you think of the movie?
Rob says:
What is a ninco mpoop? Are you saying mmmm to poop?
Berlinda says:
Just talk about the movie!
Rob says:
FINE!
So, What's the Worst That Could Happen, well personally, I don't think this movie is the worst that could happen. Actually, I thought it was quite funny, and charming, maybe taking a few ideas from Dirty Rotten Scoundrels, but nonetheless, just the idea of Devito (a rich scoundrel) stealing a ring from Lawrence (a crook who got caught robbing his house) is classic enough, but then the ensuing battle for the ring between the two is just great stuff.
Good movie, good laughs, good idea.
Berlinda says:
Yeah for me the idea is unique and fun. But some funny lines from the commercial didn't make it into the movie, so I was sad.
Rob says:
Yea, I hear ya on that one, I truly hate when they put stuff in the comercials and trailers that eventually get cut from the movie, and then you buy it or see it thinking you'll get to see those great parts, and then whammo, you get nada, nothing, zilch, zero, a great example is the latest Highlander movie (see it, wait for the review or email me). But even though, I thought the movie was very good. What part were you hoping to see?
Berlinda says:
I wanted to see when Martin Lawrence was at the auction and he said "Ain't gonna be no spankins, up in no auctions" (you know, because of the paddles).
Rob says:
Ha ha, ah yes, the woes of the cutting room. So what did you think of the extras?
Berlinda says:
The extras were kinda boring, I like outtakes of course, and there were some, so they weren't that bad. But they definitly could have been better. And that line about the paddles wasn't even in the extras!
Rob says:
I know, what other extras did it have
Berlinda says:
Besides the outtakes, it had a little featurette with all the cast members, deleted scenes, a music video and a commentary.
What did you think about the sound, and video?
Rob says:
In the sound department, it was a little lacking in the surrounds, really not to much to offer up there. They definately could have added a little more to the separation, it was decent but not even a DTS track. On the video side, this was a little better, but there were a couple of noticible scratches and grainy-ness here and there. So the a/v was about par, if not a little below.
Berlinda says:
Yeah I remember how you pointed out a blue line or something in the movie. I wonder if it was the dvd itself or the movie or what?
Rob says:
I'm pretty sure it was the transfer itself and not a disc defect, but if anyone hasn't noticed it on there copy, email us please. We will send you a free T-Shirt.
Berlinda says:
Yes we will. We promise.
Rob says:
Yes, promise... Anyway, I am gonna rate this bad boy now. The movie itself, I thought was quite enjoyable, I definately laughed more than I had expected I would. And the story too played out much better than I thought it would. So, let's say I was happy to find I was wrong, I give it a 4 for movie. For video, because it's not really the best transfer I have ever seen, I am gonna give this one 3 stars. For audio, I am also gonna give a 3 star rating, I think 2.75 is just too low. And for extras, I am gonna give a 3.75, the outtakes and deleted scenes weren't that funny, but, there were enough extras to make it a fairly worthwhile "Special Edition". So over all, I give this comedy, a 3.5 rating overall. How about you darling?
Berlinda says:
I give the extras a big bad 3.25, I would give it a 3 but it had outtakes, so I am happy. The sound I give a 3, it was average. The video I give a 3, it was pretty good and the blue line was entertaining. The movie itself I give it a....3.5. So, that averages out to about 3.25. So that is my score, a 3.25 of the whole dvd. Once again, a fairly good movie gets hurt by the people in charge of making dvds.
Rob says:
I HATE those dam people! You know, those stinking beavers!
Berlinda says:
Very funny, ha ha.
Rob says:
It is to laugh.
I hope you did too out there in internet land, I hope we have put a smile in your otherwise long and boring day.
Berlinda says:
Anways, I am signing off now, and remember people, as Emeril says,when we come back,"ANOTHER NOTCH!!"
Rob says:
Adios, vaya con dios, and hasta luego amigos!
