The Worst Film Ever
Entertaining from beginning to end, it maintains the spirit of the franchise while establishing it's own seal with a fun cast
After playing with our expectations, this turns out to be a very different sort of film.
Exactly the movie you think it is, but not the movie you want it to be.
This movie is so well done. A hidden gem! Great casting, great script, great acting. Simple, but great story.
Thank you Neflix for providing some good films that i've never seen that deserve a viewing. I don't recall this film coming out to theatre or cable. A few big names like Jennifer Garner, but it looked and felt like an Indie budgeted film. This was somewhere between a moral play and a comedy, by current definition a dramedy. The focus was on the crowning small-town Butter carving contest in this slice-of-life tale, the depths of people will go to achieve their objective, and values. I would've enjoyed this more had i seen this before HOME SWEET HELL. They feel like companion films, but vary in tone and target audience. This film had a great cast, concept, and it was original.
Simply a fun movie, well written, performed and directed. I didn't expect a lot going in, but found laughter in almost every scene. The child is adorable and in the last over-the-top sugary scene, you could almost believe a kid this sainted could exist. A talented young performer.I consider myself as someone with a good sense of humor, one who can see a joke being set up a minute before it hits you. But there were a lot of fun surprises. Very inventive stuff. Being someone who is not unfamiliar with the oddities of "health food," the joke about seitan was appreciated by me, but probably lost on the majority in the audience. (The IMDb spell checker here isn't laughing either.)'twould be nice to know if the foster father and the little girl were improvising in the car scene before she goes in to sign up for the competition. It seemed spontaneous. If it was, the kid is a comic genius. If not, it was just fun writing. The images kicked back and forth in that scene were reminiscent of some of the really zany stuff that I loved in the Calvin and Hobbes comic strips a few years back.Check out Butter and enjoy.
While this "film" does have some moments of laughter, it is mostly a series of head scratching moments strung together by cellulose.To be perfectly honest, I'm not sure what happened on the set of Butter, the cast is made up of some seasoned veterans and the director has made some decent comedies before ("She's out of My League")but Butter falls flat.The scenes between Brooke and Bob's daughter are completely unrealistic and gratuitous. Laura's sudden clarity seems cliché, and the whole movie feels cobbled together.Suffice to say, I'll think twice before assuming that the likes of Jennifer Garner, Ty Burrell, Hugh Jackman and Olivia Wilde can put together a quality flick.
