I got the chance to see three movies this weekend that I reccommend you renting at your earliest convience......
Just Like Heaven-Funny and cute. Don't expect to see too much of Jon Heder (Napoleon Dynamite) in this but he does manage to steal the scenes that he is in....even though his non-napoleon acting is very Keanu Reeves. If you have seen the trailer then you know the story. There is a slight twist but nothing too surprising.
Puddle Cruiser-If you have seen Super Troopers or Club Dread and liked either one, you will like this as well. It was the first full length movie by the comedy troup, Broken Lizard. It was made in the mid 90's and relfects that. The story is a simple college story but the writing is phenominal. Sure, it is the same guys that wrote the Dukes of Hazzard movie but I promise, the laughs are not as cheap and the story line is not as cheesy. Don't let the DVD cover fool you, it is not another teen movie.
Waiting-Wow! I have been waiting to see this one for a while. It is basically Clerks set in a TGI Fridays, Applebees, Bennigans, kind of joint. Ryan Reynolds is genius in anything that he does. The funniest man alive, Dane Cook, plays a small part as well. The writer/director is this cat from Florida who got sick of being a waiter so he wrote a movie. Do him and yourself a favor go see it. It is full of pecker jokes though so don't expect high brow comedy here. Imagine Kevin Smith without the intellectual banter.
Also, if you have not seen Wedding Crashers or 40 Year Old virgin yet, do it!
As you see, I a like the simple laughs.
Anyhow, this is your resident movie freak, signing off.
