Shaun of the Dead (2004)

I love Brit comedy! Its naturally funny when you have characters rattling off in short bursts at almost incomprehensible speeds. To top that, they try to give you the nonchalant, everyday expression that has 'big deal' written all over it. With such a combination, even Macbeth will sound funny. Here it gets better. We have a funny horror movie going

British cinema also seems to have an affliction for characterizing losers in their films. Probably that adds to the sarcastic comedy that is their forte. Shaun, our protagonist is one such loser living with a bigger loser (in all senses of the word) who's a close pal, and is desperately trying to get his failing relationship working. Into all this explodes an epidemic of dead-man-walking and suddenly we expect the fun to end. Surprise! Shaun, Ed (the bigger loser) and company are not losing their sense of humor over some silly flesh eating zombies. Rest assured, you'll laugh.

Special mention of Simon Pegg(shaun) and Nick Frost( Ed), who never let the movie go dull!

The Bucket List (2007)

its an OK movie. Its fun, touching towards the end and generally entertaining. The movie holds your attention inspite of the fait accompli obvious from the beginning. Major credit for that goes to the dynamic duo of Jack Nicholson and Morgan Freeman. They bring the movie alive. Also brilliant was Sean Hayes in his supporting role. His being a young man in the movie may actually have been uplifting for the mood.

Also by Director Rob Reiner is This is Spinal Tap (1984). want to see that.

Meet the Spartans (2008)

Well made spoof! I think sticking to one movie did the trick here. Epic movie was such a disaster! Maybe that brought down the expectation from directorsJason Friedberg and Aaron Seltzer famous for the scary movie series.

Some of the jokes were very classy and imaginative. good fun!
