Скачать или смотреть Merry Christmas! "Elf" is not good. | Movie Review by The Bluff Council

Merry Christmas? Bah, humbug! "Elf" is widely beloved, and considered by many to be a modern Christmas classic, but Ev doesn't get the hype, and thinks that it's actually... gulp a BAD movie. Scoop yourself up a large serving of figgy pudding and let's get into Jon Favreau's "Elf," the 2003 Christmas comedy starring Will Ferrell, James Caan, Ed Asner, Mary Steenburgen, and Zooey Deschanel.

00:00 - Intro / Ev is Scrooge
02:43 - Keith has fond memories of this film
03:39 - This film is pretty universally beloved, not by Ev though
06:17 - Just because you love something, that doesn't make it good
07:17 - Will Ferrell's performance and the film's quotability are two reasons people love it
08:46 - The premise is great and the first act is solid
09:47 - Some of Ev's major beefs
11:54 - Why is Buddy so developmentally immature?
14:40 - And why is Zooey's character into that?
17:57 - James Caan's rapid change of heart
21:55 - So is Buddy... a superhuman...?
25:32 - This movie is just a dry run for "Stepbrothers"
26:00 - Is Will Ferrell committed to the bit or just not doing a great job?
29:47 - Bob Newhart RULES
30:38 - The messy ending and the pointless antagonism of the Central Park Rangers
35:00 - Santa: "People can't see me or Christmas will be ruined!!" Also Santa: flies over a huge crowd in Downtown Manhattan
39:05 - The missing pages from the children's book is a great metaphor for studio interference
41:52 - Will Ferrell vs. Jon Favreau (and Faizon Love... and James Caan... and...)
43:44 - Matt Walsh has a great mouth
45:24 - Faizon Love appreciation
46:28 - Where does this film fall on the list of Christmas movies??
