Sharp as Marbles (2008) Reviews
Surprisingly good
I almost turned the movie off during the first few seconds because it's immediately noticeable that the movie has a pretty low budget (most low budget comedies out there suffer where it hurts most - the writing). There was something about the actor (George) that made me want to keep watching, though; he's an extremely funny guy who really "sells" the annoying/moronic/love-him-or-hate-him kind of character! There are some really hilarious bits in this movie. The writers did a fantastic job, as do the actors. It should be mentioned that the acting won't win any Oscars, but it fits with the style of the movie. They don't take themselves too seriously, but they always stay in character, so it really works. This movie was featured on the front pages of some prominent torrent sites, which will actually help the guys behind the movie (writers, director, actors) get noticed in the future. They might not make quite as much cash as they would have due to a few lost sales, but the marketing got a huge free push. I rated the movie a 7 out of 10. This figure is relative, though, to the style and budget of the movie. It was actually quite a bit funnier and interesting to watch than some of the comedies with popular comedians. I can't wait to see more from this bunch.
Very funny movie!
Sharp As Marbles is about three dumb video store clerks - Albert, Ernie and George who can't seem to stay out of trouble. Albert and Ernie are two lovable characters with hearts of gold, while George on the other hand only thinks of himself. The funny thing about this movie is, the more Albert and Ernie screw up, the more trouble George finds himself in. The movie follows the trio through numerous adventures, meeting lots of interesting characters along the way. (My favorites were Abdul the Indian store owner and the two punk rockers from the rock group GOB) Sharp as Marbles is a very funny movie with a great ending that will put a smile on your face. It's definitely a feel good movie.
Very entertaining, quirky and Funny all at the same time
My friend recommended I check this movie out, mainly because we use to both work at a video store a few years back and he thought I would have a great laugh, and I personally laughed all the way through, I could tell it was a low budged film, but still enjoyed the wonky sound track, it worked really well for the show and the acting was OK, it was a comedy, I found it entertaining never the less, worth a look at if your into comedy, mainly because it had a feel of the movie Road Trip, that type of comedy, speaking of road trips... the part that they take there little road trip, that was by far the most funniest scene in the whole movie, the guy's really played well off one another. I found it to be funny, quirky and silly at times, but over all entertaining.
Great film for the whole family!
I took my kids to see the film "SHARP AS MARBLES" in Vancouver this weekend, and I have to say I was pleasantly surprised. My husband and I thought it was a very funny film which we thoroughly enjoyed. My kids loved every minute, and its all they have been talking about since. The story itself was kind of basic but the characters were hilarious. Ten seconds into the film the theater erupted in laughter and it never stopped. Every scene was non stop laughter and the film got better and better as it went on. The ending was absolutely adorable. Why this film was only playing in one theater I don't know. Its been a long time since my family enjoyed a movie this much. If you get a chance, you have got to check it out - especially if you have kids!
Fantastic Family Film
Finally a wonderful family film, and a great cast of very talented actors, you start to laugh right from the start and don't stop till the end. Simple story of 3 dumb guy's who work in a video store, and their journey through life as best friends. I would love to see this type of film in all the theaters so I can tell my friends back east to see it, I know they would really enjoy it. A film for ages 7-70, great direction and editing as well, overall a great Indenpendent film, The writing is very clever and at a quick pace. This is the type of film that can be seen over and over and you would still be laughing each time you saw it. Don't miss it when it hits the theaters.
