So much average
It's a movie as timely as it is provocative and amazingly, for much of its running time, it is weirdly funny.
I really wanted to like this movie. I like the pot culture. I enjoy self medicating. Big Head from Silicon Valley is an actor I enjoy seeing in TV and movies. The girl is hot.The movie unfortunately lacks depth. There is nothing compelling about any of the main characters. His relationship with the girl didn't draw me in mostly because the writing is very shallow. He likes her because she is really hot. She likes him because he plays a song she likes. It is difficult to say why she continues to like him. There is nothing funny in the movie. I think I would have liked it if it was at least a little funny.There is little to like in this movie other than a curious fascination with how he built his weed dealing business on craigslist and some hope that we may see the girls' boobs.There are plenty of great examples of how to develop characters and relationships in movies. No excuse for bad writing.
Movies of this nature are just straight up boring with weak plots and characters. In this case, the characters were not terrible in any sense and the story was well-organized and constructed.Baked in Brooklyn stars Josh Brener and Alexandra Deddario and was directed by Rory Rooney.It tells the story of a guy, David (Josh Brener) who lost his job and in a bid to earn something fast, he decides to sell weed over the internet. With his two roommates and very hot girlfriend, Kate (Alexandra Deddario) all against him, he continues to venture deeper into the business.With time, his customers start to increase as supply decreases. He loses touch with his friends and girlfriend as he was too busy. His neglecting leads to the breakup between him and his girlfriend Kate.After a threat on his life by his supplier, he decides to quit the weed business and begins to apply for a writer's job.He finds Kate back with her ex which really brought him down to the dumps. He then kisses her in front of her boyfriend and rides away on his bicycle as the boyfriend pursues him. The characters were great. Josh Brener played the character 'David' who was particularly nerdy and was not that attractive. Alexandra Deddario on the other hand was hot (as always😘) and portrayed the character of a college girl who falls for the nerdy guy because he is sort of funny and wonderful. Their chemistry was above average.I felt sorry for David though as things started to fall apart for him. After losing his job, losing his girlfriend, almost losing his life, decides to get his girl back but discovers she was with someone already. Come on, it was devastating. I could tell though that it finally ended well for him as the whole movie was a 'true life experience' he narrated to an audience as was shown at the beginning. Also, I am guessing that he got back with Kate, because after kissing her in front of her new boyfriend, she wasn't mad or angry at him. As a matter of fact, she looked kind of happy as a kind of new flame was ignited in her. So seeing David do that was definitely a turn on for her. I bet that she was going to call David later. The movie was entertaining and I am so proud of Josh Brener (speaking as a fan of SILICON VALLEY). See full review on www.film freak.WordPress.com
An easy movie for anyone to enjoy. Youth, love, and danger - always makes a good mix when done right -- and in this sweet movie it's done very well. The plot is easy to follow and the characters certainly will keep your interest.David looses his nice paying job and then meets the girl of his dreams. David isn't particularly attractive. Actually he's appears to be a bit mousy and is rather nerdy looking but Kate thinks he's wonderful and she moves into his apartment with him.Kate is still in college, David is unemployed and he needs money! He discovers the quickest way to cash is dealing in pot. A friend introduces him to a supplier and David finds himself mixed in with a type of crowd he is totally unprepared to deal with. As fate would have it the dealing in pot takes all his time away from Kate and she resents it.This flick is mostly predictable but still fun to watch and you will actually feel sorry for David.
I don't write reviews for movies very often and I am very critical about what I spend my time watching. With so many options available, if a movie doesn't pull me in within the first 5 to 10 minutes then I'm looking for something else. The first 60 seconds of this movie was questionable for me but I was sold before the 3 minute mark and was fully engaged from that point on (I'm not afraid to stop movies mid-stream if they get stupid).The story line flowed nicely, the acting talent was grade A, and the chemistry between Brener and Daddario was definitely above average.I found it thoroughly entertaining and the type of movie that I'd watch again soon with someone on a movie date (a rarity for me).
