Be Kind Rewind
September 25, 2007
This is a movie that I am truly excited about, enough so to shout praise to the high heavens months before it’s release.
Now isn’t that a refreshing premise. Michel Gondry is a mad scientist of a filmmaker. All of his movies have struck a chord in one way or another. Mos Def is one of my favorite new actors. He, of course, is a invaluable MC, but this man and what he did for the character of Douglas Adam’s Ford Prefect from the Hitchhiker’s guide, and the classic scene from Talledega Nights, where on the same screen is Will Ferrell and Sacha Baron Cohen share the scene with him and he steals it with a “Git R Done!” Jack Black isn’t really one of my favorite actors but I have learned to put my disdain for him on hold for a few roles and it seems that I will have to do that again. But it seems promising since I like Mos Def more than I hate Jack Black.
I guess January 28th will not come soon enough.
