July and August Movies 2009

The last two months of summer are usually the best time for movie releases till after Thanksgiving. Audiences only deal with minimal blockbuster BS, and are treated to films that are just main stream enough to make money and earn accolades.

July 10:

• "Bruno" - It did not seem to get the same reception as Sacha Baron Cohen's last starring vehicle, "Borat." There may have been a backlash towards the exploitative style of film making, but critics were not overly harsh to the project, but not as rabid as they'd been for "Borat". Still, Cohen might be the contender for Best Actor in a Comedy or Musical when he Golden Globes come around.
• "I Love You, Beth Cooper" - A PG-13 movie about teenage corruption is a paradox. It should not happen. With the more intelligent "Assassination of a High School President" making it to DVD this fall, this film will hopefully be forgotten even though I cannot say it was necessarily bad.
