Description

Muito loco. LOL.

Saiu no Brasil com o subtitulo: uma locadora muito louca. Hehehehehehe. Hihihihihihihi. MIACABO com filmes que tenham títulos ou subtítulos com "muito louca" ou "muito louco" no meio. E miacabo que em pleno ano 2009, era de Saturno e ano do Porco Gripado no Horóscopo chinês, as distribuidora ainda usem essas expressões tão anos 80. Deve ser uma vibe vintage, só pode. Hehehehehe. De qualquer forma, tem Jack Black, tem um bom título e um subtítulo fuderoso e é o filme mais engraçado que já vi desde SUPERBAD, o que conta MUITO. É a história de dois carinhas tomando conta de uma locadora de VHS [VHS! Eu CHORO de saudade!!!!!!!!!!] e num golpe de azar eles perdem os conteúdo de TODAS as fitas e tem que regravar os filmes eles mesmos, da maneira mais tosca possível. Recomendo F...Read more

Una historia original con un relato impecable. Divertida y sencilla, como un cuento bien contado.
Jack Black funciona bien aunque sus interpretaciones empiezan a volverse demasiado similares entre sí y por lo tanto a cansar a quienes lo ven.

Rating : 8/10

Clever, But Not Pulled Off Well.

"Be Kind Rewind" is a decent comedy with a clever story and idea. I had never seen a film like it before. Two friends, Jerry and Mike (Jack Black And Mos Def) own a video store called "Be Kind Rewind" They have almost no business, no customers, and only a few VHS's in stock. Things get a little worse when Jerry gets magnetized by a power plant while trying to sabotage it. Don't ask me why he was doing it, because I have no idea. When Jerry enters the video store after wards, he erases all of the content on the tapes. When customers come in asking for films that they don't have, they decide why not create that film, considering they had never seen it before, and wouldn't notice they were in the film. They create many films including Ghostbusters, Rush Hour 2, Men In Black, and many more. T...Read more

I had high hopes for this movie. The trailers made it look brilliant and hilarious... so an hour into the movie when I turned it off because I could not make it any further, even though it wasn't too much longer, I was highly disappointed. It started so slowly - took a long time to get into the story... and then there were small bits of humour and brilliance surrounded by long periods where nothing exciting happened. I did enjoy small parts of it - Jack Black singing the Ghostbusters Theme which was so NOT the real theme, and the filming of Robocop, but it just wasn't enough to keep me going through the rest of the movie. It felt too much like they had taken all of the good points of the movie and put them in the trailer.
