Review of I'm So Excited! (2013) by Jack G — 27 Jul 2013

Sometimes you go into a movie simply wanting a little fun. after so many years of Almodovar making twisted psychodramas and searing romance, we now have a total screwball comedy that is, like another 'bottle' comedy this summer, this is the end (all staged in one place), you get to see what these characters do at the end of their self-involved ropes.

there a lot of energy and a lot of silliness but it clicks mostly. only when almodovar leaves the plane for a scene where a character calls a woman and we see her story for a bit it drags or loses its energy.

but those male flight attendants are just hilarious and when the music number of the film's title hits it finally releaves one of only thinking of the song as that scene from Saved by the Bell (or maybe it's just for me it did).

fast, loose, and knowing how goofy it is, its perfect at the end of a long day and maybe with a little drink on the side (minus he mescaline).
