BETTER OFF DEAD (1985)

[ASIN: B00005JKFA]

Positive Experience/Entertaining? OF COURSE! If you haven't seen this movie GO GET IT NOW! It really is one of the most brilliant comedies of all time.
Technically any good? While far from perfect cinema, this movie knows exactly what it's trying to do and it succeeds in doing it. There are definitely moments in the movie that needed second takes or better sound and even, very rarely, different cinematography. Still, the acting is spot-on, though it's not super challenging to pull off what this movie requires of its actors. Of course the comic timing that is required to pull a lot of the gags off is incredibly important and everyone nails it.
How did it leave me feeling? Incredibly entertained. After a really stressful week of all sorts of dumb, real-life stress, this was exactly the movie I needed to see. Special thanks to the fine folks at the NuArt for screening this movie at their Friday midnight show. If you're in LA, on the Westside and you're looking for a good midnight show, swing by the NuArt on Santa Monica Blvd, just west of the 405 freeway.
Final Rating? GSN!!! GO SEE NOW!! Or NETFLIX THIS PUPPY!
