WAS MISSING: A complete bibliography worked into the movie or the DVD extra features, but sadly, it's missing.
SEE IT FOR: Art coming alive. Literally, in the form of Peter Rabbit! While not an amazing story, it's a pretty heartwarming look at a life I knew nothing about. Who needs friends when you have art supplies?
WAS MISSING: The Statham flying split kick and a real-life-person-to-actor comparison at the end.
SEE IT FOR: Loads of brilliant British accents, especially on the lady-types, plus a really tense storyline that involves everybody exploiting everybody. The based-on-a-true-story aspect never hurts.
WAS MISSING: A reference to Teen Bop or a little bit more spelling out of the plot for those not as informed on Bowie going into it, since it nearly plays out like a documentary.
SEE IT FOR: Three of my favorite actors in Bale, McGregor and Rhys Davies in very fine performances of something that may have otherwise been restricted to a niche crowd.
WAS MISSING: About 20 more shots of Buckner missing that grounder.
SEE IT FOR: "Life is true. We can still win." The more Keaton is prompted to say this, the more he's trying to convince himself of it, to no avail. Sadly, I'll do the same with "Keaton doesn't make bad movies."
WAS MISSING: A funny scene outside of the pre-released clips on FunnyOrDie.com.
SEE IT FOR: Every scene that starts with Tim Meadows saying "Dewey, you don't want none of this!" The Dewey Cox Died song at the end credits is entertaining enough, and you get to see Jewel, Lyle and Jackson Browne on stage together!
WAS MISSING: Respect. I couldn't take anything very seriously and it seemed to feed right into every negative stereotype you'd think they would be trying to knock down.
SEE IT FOR: I love medieval themes more than most, and I'm down with costumed role players, fairs and games... but I've never been down with professional LARPer-types who live out the medieval days, on and off the field. Disappointingly, Darkon did not change my mind, but to each their own!
