Review of Observe and Report (2009) by Dave H — 12 Dec 2010
Very odd. Rogen's natural charm manages to carry this, but it's pretty weird. On the one hand there's some sweet, hilarious moments, but they are overwhelmed by the fact the hero is a sad, delusional psycho of Travis Bickle proportions.
Still it's an interesting examination of mall mentality, but it feels a little weird when our screen heroes turn from lovable losers to genuinely sick-in-the-head types. Black and funny, but also uncomfortable.
