Review of Paul (2011) by Bikerjames — 27 Mar 2011
There are a few chuckles, but I would have enjoyed the movie more if I was 13 years old. This is the second movie in just a couple of weeks of release of each other that pays homages to other movies throughout (the other being Rango).
The visual effects overall are well done, I just wish the humor would have been a little more sophisticated, and the movie not so predictable. For some reason, the movie reminded me a little of "Short Circuit", but the robot in that movie (Johnnie 5) was funnier and the overall writing better.
I was also VERY disappointed that the trailer gave away SO many of the scenes. Nobody laughed when he ate the bird because everyone had already seen it. This is not a horrible movie by any stretch, I just wish it was funnier.
