Well, there were some funny bits, including Branson's appearance, and I liked the cast, but plot is based on the premise that vibrators have some sort of inherent humor about them. And hey, there's always room for a plastic willy joke in a late night monologue, but 80 minutes of vibrator shtick is only funny if you're one to giggle at the pink plastic phallic friends.
Christopher Guest and his team make these sorts of movies by injecting subtle absurdities into plausible discourse, usually spawning comedy through clueless characters unaware of their own ridiculousness. In Rabbit Fever, there's actually not much absurdity! A vibrator confiscated at the airport? A daughter embarrassingly catching her mother using one? How inventive.
Humor so dry that it needs some kind of comedy lubricant. Now where's my comedy lube? |

Voyeuristic, honest, and nearly non-narrative, Metro is an interesting study of what these working women really face in the privacy of their apartments and minds. The film could be more cohesive, and the story could be more connected with a better constructed narrative arc, but it's still compelling. Maybe a bit slow-paced, and no real culmination, but worth a watch. |

 Damn it Pixar, you know exactly how to stab at my heart with tragic cuteness. My most-look-forward-to movie. |
