A Review Too Far - 090315

This week our Cinema Geeks review the indie classic, Swingers, move on
to 1989's Bill and Ted's Excellent Adventure, and finish up with out in
theaters now, We Are Your Friends.First up, Swingers tells the
tale of a struggling actor in Los Angeles who is trying to get over his
breakup with his girlfriend back on the East Coast the only way he knows
how, but hanging out with friends and slowly wading back into the
dating pool. This film launched the careers of writer/star Jon Favreau
and co-star Vince Vaughn, but definitely shows its seams when it comes
to budget, direction, and cinematography.Moving on, Bill &
Ted's Excellent Adventure tells the tale of two surfer dude would-be
rockers who are failing history and are about to get a helpful leg up on
their final oral report from an unlikely source, a hip time-traveler
from the future who tells them they are too important to future
generations to not end up as rock stars thanks to a little setback like
bad grades. With a silly script and convenient plot devices, Alex Winter
and Keanu Reeves take George Carlin up on his offer of a
dimension-sliding phone booth and proceed to kidnap famous figures in
history in order to get first-hand knowledge of the past and how they
impacted it.And, finally, We Are Your Friends is a genre mashup
of music, coming of age, and prosaic message movies in which a young DJ
struggles with his potential, a love triangle, and outgrowing his
friends, all to the tunes of Electronic Dance Music... or EDM. Set in
the financially depressed San Fernando Valley, Zac Efron leads this cast
of mostly unknowns in a tale of hedonism, music, purpose, modern
sexuality and drug culture.
