Paul (No Spoilers)

[Jokersmoker]

Disappointing. Third rate acting. Paul of course being animated is better BUT super lame story.

I'm annoyed by Seth Rogan so that in itself is enough reason for me not to see it.

 

[Maleficus]

text enjoy dammit, TEXT ENJOY

my world is falling apart.

 

[Homerboy]

Wait, somebody actually went and saw this? Even my 7 and 9 year olds thought it looked horrendous.

The bird eating scene from the trailer was mildly amusing but I suspected that was going to be the highlight of the movie.

The review in our paper today said it was definitely not for 7 or 9 year olds or even under 14. R-rated. "It is crammed with gratuitious profanity that has the effect of making the movie less funny than it might have been."

I wasn't saying I was considering taking them. My point was it looked lame as hell.

I don't think I've seen anything on it except some banner ads, but I do think Simon Pegg is an awesome guy. I'd hope it's not that bad if for no other reason than him.

 

[BrokenVisage]

But... but... Seth Rogan is funny, at least that's what Judd Apatow wants us to believe. Not surpised, the jellybean-pooping rabbit movie looks 10x better.

 

[Aikouka]

I'm still going to see it today .

 

[BrownShoes]

I love Simon Pegg but the trailer looks like something that I wouldn't have interest in.

 

[bigrash]

The trailer didn't look funny at all.

 

[sdifox]

Different director than Pegg and Frost's last effort.

wtfbbq, Simon Pegg is my age?

 

[Macamus Prime]

The trailer looks like total shit. No thank you.

The trailer doesn't do this movie justice at all. The trailer just shows all the cheap stupid stuff. The real good stuff of this movie are the vulgar moments(gay jokes), cameos, San Diego Comic Con, nerd culture, references to lots of classic sci-fi/Spielberg references...

When I saw the trailer, I was disappointed. I saw a matinee AM showing w/ my dad, and both of us really enjoyed the movie. My dad, with his vulgar humor, enjoyed it for its cheesy, yet brain-turned-off-feel-good story. Then again, I wasn't really expecting much. (but also.. then again... it does have decent reveiws: http://www.rottentomatoes.com/m/paul/ 71&#37

I recommend the movie. I love it how it shows off our Americana culture (road-trip through the beautiful west, geek culture, albeit through British eyes), and does it in a humorous, nerdy way. It kind of makes me proud how the US is still the frontrunner in the global culture (nerd/pop/road-trip/..all american products haha ), and this movie shows that. This forum is big on sci-fi, and this movie is a great homage to sci-fi, with plenty of vulgar jokes in it. Simon Pegg does a nerd rather well.. rofl. I think he's a bit underrated as an actor.

It's a great buddy movie.

I thought the Paul character had some pretty funny moments. I do think the movie was alright, but definitely not Simon Pegg's and Nick Frost's funniest. I would say wait till DVD.

 

[PingSpike]

The trailer looked awful. If the movie is actually good I won't know...the trailer is so bad I don't even want to rent it.

 

[TheVrolok]

I think Simon Pegg and Nick Frost quite a bit. Loved Hot Fuzz/Shaun of the Dead... for some reason even the previews didn't make this thing look good. Bummer, I was hoping it would be.

 

[goobernoodles]

I went and saw it. Didn't really look into it too much and figured I'd give it a shot.

The trailer was the best part. That's saying something.

I just got back from seeing it, and I agree with this completely. I enjoyed the movie quite a bit more than I thought I would.
