Review of Bad Words (2013) by Greg H — 19 Oct 2014

So much better than it looks like from the description about a 40 year old Spelling Bee contender. Bateman's smart alicky character Guy ranks up there with funny, smarmy movie pricks like Breakfast Club's John Bender, Fight Club's Tyler Durden, and the gay wise-talking rat from Charlotte's Web.

Some of the dialogue is truly jaw-dropping and thankfully, it never quite leaves you off where you think it's going. The type of movie that might not find a big audience, though it deserves to. If you like your comedy dark as night, you may like it as much as I did.

would give it 4.5 stars if I could but not a perfect 5.
