Mr. Woodcock (2007)
9/10
Underrated ronchy comedy. Good laugh
17 April 2021
A good quick laugh all starts with Mr. Woodcock. I've always enjoyed this movie and I've found it funny so give it a chance if you're looking for a simple laugh/funny movie.

It stars Sean William Scott, Billy Bob, Amy Poehler, Susan Sarandon and Ethan Suplee. William Scott gives his best attempt to seemingly escape his "Stifler" mold and he does a half good job with playing main character John Farley. Billy Bob, you can say, acts as himself, but I was never annoyed by his character at any point during the movie. Amy Poehler may be the funniest actor in the whole movie. She's outstanding as Johns agent and laugh out loud funny. Although not at their best, Sarandon and Suplee fit comfortably in their roles.

The plot of the movie is a bit dark but I thought the script was clever and it's comical if you pay attention to the little quick jokes that are told subtly throughout the course of the film.

I would classify Mr. Woodcock as a sort-of dark comedy but not overly crude or vulgar. I personally find this movie funny and with its short run time, it's easy to watch. Give it a go.
