Greetings (1968)
Interesting comedy, but does drag on
Definitely an interesting commentary on the state of youth and society in the mid sixties. At times down right hilarious, this comedy does can be boring. Not for everyone. Interesting installment from Brian Depalma, the director of Carrie, his unique style indeed makes for an interesting film. Deniro's portrayal of a developing voyeur is one of the few comedic roles that I have seen him do so well. A movie worth watching for anyone interested in film making, as many techniques are quite interested.
Upright Citizens Brigade (1998)
The most intelligent, and the funniest sketch comedy around.
The Upright Citizens Brigade is the funniest show that is currently on TV. It manages to provide intelligent, witty humor, but never gets too pretentious, and still can appeal to the lowest common denominator. The actors are incredible, and they manage to handle such incredibly diverse roles with astounding ease. People who find the show boring or not funny may not understand the humor, or may be conditioned to shows like south park, that get laughs through bodily function jokes or profanity. Don't get me wrong i liked south park for a while, but it got old, and stupid. The ucb is constantly unique, and is always using new ideas, so that no two shows are too much alike. I advise people to watch it with an open mind, and to see it more than once, because , it grows on you, and you may have caught an episode that wasn't as good as the ucb can be.
