Well I tried to follow what I said last time and watch a B movie comedy, Blubberella, but I just couldn't do it. I tried for about thirty minutes and B comedies aren't the same for me as B horror movies. So instead of watching a crummy comedy I went for a current main stream crummy movie. I was not disappointed with Straw Dogs!
Pluses of the movie were hot guys (Alexander Skarsgard and James Marsden) and James Woods not because he is attractive I just like him. Negatives were setting backwoods louisianna (southern hillbilly Mecca) and James Woods with a hick accent. Having most of my family being born in Oklahoma and deep woods Arkansas I would like to take a moment and say that most hillbillies are quite nice and fun. Ofcourse in this movie every man was a redneck ready to get drunk, brawl and hit women over their heads with clubs and drag them back to their caves.
My hubby did remind me a bit of James Marsden's character (the nice guy trying to fit in but when push comes to shove he will take you down). Now those of you who know my husband are laughing out loud now but those of you who really know my man are nodding in agreement. Although I hope I am not like Kate Bosworth's character cause I found myself wanting to punch her in the face. Who goes on a long, fast run wearing no shoes and no bra? An idiot that's who. I give this movie a 2 1/2 out of 5 stars. It wast worth watching but it makes me want to watch the original with Dustin Hoffman. He takes down British ruffians. Now that I would like to see!
