I had only seen about one or two commercials for this movie and well it is well worth it. I never wanted to buy a camcorder and record so much in my life. Its a cool movie, it has it share of funny parts, and like all movies it has its down town when you tend to drift off a little bit. But yea Mos Def and Jack Black definitely pulled off a good movie even though it wasn’t marketed real good.
Here is a quick summary followed by a trailer:
Jerry (Jack Black) is a junkyard worker who attempts to sabotage a power plant he suspects of causing his headaches. But he inadvertently causes his brain to become magnetized, leading to the unintentional destruction of all the movies in his friend’s (Mos Def) store. In order to keep the store’s one loyal customer, an elderly lady with a tenuous grasp on reality, the pair re-create a long line of films including The Lion King, Rush Hour, Ghostbusters, When We Were Kings, Back to the Future, Driving Miss Daisy, and Robocop , putting themselves and their townspeople into it. They become the biggest stars in their neighborhood.
