‘Hall Pass’: The Reviews Are In!

The critics weigh in on whether Farrelly brothers’ latest is worth getting out of class. By Eric Ditzian Jason Sudeikis and Owen Wilson in “Hall Pass” Photo: New Line Cinema Last weekend, Liam Neeson’s “Unknown” pulled off a surprise box-office win after “I Am Number Four” failed to attract even a fraction of its “Twilight”-obsessed target audience. This weekend, though, we can be relatively certain which film will land in the top spot. For the first time since 2000’s “Me, Myself & Irene,” Bobby and Peter Farrelly should be able to nab the weekend’s #1 slot with their new comedy, “Hall Pass.” Like “Unknown,” the film has received mixed reviews, but in these early, often barren months at the multiplex, that hardly matters. Check out what the critics are saying about “Hall Pass.” The Story “Rick (Owen Wilson) and Fred (Jason Sudeikis) are a pair of husbands whose marriages are, at this point, held together by their urges to check out other women. Their wives, Maggie (Jenna Fischer) and Grace (Christina Applegate), are as bored with their husbands’ straying eyes as their husbands are with marriage. Rick and Fred are released back into the wild by their wives, Lucy and Ethel — I mean, Maggie and Grace — and given a week free of marriage responsibility. The men are allowed seven days to pursue the girls of their dreams. It’s charming that ‘Pass’ realizes how flimsy it is, conceptually; the women causing the domestic tedium are played by actresses who, when they were dewier, played the girls that caused men to drive into trees — a throwaway joke itself. And the movie is self-aware enough to toy with the misogyny of its premise; Maggie and Grace suspect their men wouldn’t know what to do with freedom.” — Elvis Mitchell, Movieline The Performances ” ‘Hall Pass’ presents these men as a new archetype: the frustrated middle-aged husband as randy adolescent virgin. Wilson, geeked out in super-square hair, knows how to use his gentleness to turn himself into a figure of soft desperation. And ‘Saturday Night Live’ ‘s Sudeikis, in his first major movie role, has an agreeably dorky, bootlicking officiousness. (Fred thinks that he’s scored a victory if he figures out how to look at a woman’s behind without his wife seeing him.) They are so domesticated, the joke is they don’t even know their pent-up sexual frustration is driving them nuts.” — Owen Gleiberman, Entertainment Weekly The Laughs and the Look “The slapstick and action comedy interludes are haphazardly executed at best, and matters aren’t helped by the film’s incredibly ugly look; for whatever reason, the productions from New Line Cinema since its absorption by Warner Bros. appear poorly lighted, processed and/or printed, resulting in blotchy, bleachy results that do no favors to the actors.” — Todd McCarthy, The Hollywood Reporter The Dissenters “Like many comedies, ‘Hall Pass’ is more a succession of gags and skits than an actual movie; when it reaches for something more than low-rent laughs, it really slips. The attempted commentary on love, fidelity and appreciation are off-putting, a side plot about a violent psycho simply bizarre. Wilson doesn’t seem to be trying, and Fischer and Applegate, typically game for anything, are given nothing worthwhile to do. What laughs there are come mostly courtesy of Sudeikis and, of all people, Richard Jenkins in a surprising role. Also, the description ‘gross-out comedy’ has rarely been more apt. Except maybe for the comedy part.” — Bill Goodykoontz, The Arizona Republic How Does It Compare to Past Farrelly Flicks? “Those cheerful shlockmeisters Peter and Bobby Farrelly, who co-wrote and directed the film, are more laid-back here than they were in ‘There’s Something About Mary,’ ‘Kingpin’ or ‘Dumb and Dumber.’ They make you laugh at some pretty revolting things, and the ratio of sexual/scatological giggles to groaners is high. But the brothers dialed back the lewd lunatic energy that is their signature. The film’s longest-running gag is that the men, sprung from the straitjacket of monogamy, leer at almost every woman they get near, but are too square and meek to score.” — Colin Covert, Minneapolis Star Tribune Check out everything we’ve got on “Hall Pass.” For breaking news, celebrity columns, humor and more — updated around the clock — visit MTVMoviesBlog.com .

Vince Vaughn, Wife Welcome A Daughter

The couple’s first child, Locklyn Kyla Vaughn, was born on Saturday in Chicago. By Jocelyn Vena Kyla Weber and Vince Vaughn Photo: Jonathan Daniel/ Getty Images Over the weekend, Vince Vaughn and his wife, Kyla Weber, welcomed their first child into the world. The couple had a daughter, Locklyn Kyla Vaughn, on Saturday, People.com reports . Little Locklyn was born in Chicago, the actor’s hometown, weighing in at 7 pounds and measured 20 inches long, Vaughn’s rep tells the website. “Both of them couldn’t be happier to welcome their sweet little girl into their family!” a family friend said of the new bundle of joy. Last year, Vaughn opened up to People.com about fatherhood, saying, “It’s the first time that I really want to have kids. I’ve been very fortunate in my career, and my life has been about that for so long that you get bored of it. You’re ready for your life to be about other people and other things.” Vaughn and Weber , a Canadian real-estate agent, announced they were expecting a baby in July. The couple married in January of this year in Chicago with close friends and family in attendance. Earlier this fall, Vaughn was caught up in a bit of controversy surrounding a gay joke he made in a trailer for the upcoming Ron Howard-directed relationship comedy, “The Dilemma,” which was later removed. “The Dilemma,” about a man (played by Vaughn) who learns that the wife (Winona Ryder) of his best friend (Kevin James) is having an affair with another guy (Channing Tatum), will be released on January 14. There has been no word on whether the joke will be removed from the final cut of the movie. Have any well-wishes to send to Vince and his wife? Share them in the comments.

Shameless: Kathy Griffin Insists Calling Scott Brown’s Daughters ‘Prostitutes’ Was a Fantastic Career Move

Liberal “comedian” Kathy Griffin thinks there is no line of rudeness she can’t cross, including calling the daughters of Sen. Scott Brown “prostitutes.” On Monday’s Joy Behar Show on CNN Headline News, Griffin proclaimed “But yes, whenever a statement is issued against me, I`m in heaven. I feel my next special is half written for me. And then I get to read statements allowed in my live shows which you can go to KathyGriffin.net and see the many, many cities I`ve picked up for my current tour.” Not even Rep. Barney Frank could make her feel bad about it: BEHAR: So you’re really feeling bad about it all? Okay, I mean, when Barney Frank turns on you, one of your gays, you have to start to wonder. GRIFFIN: Hey, the gays, look, there is — that’s — there is a reason that that flag has colors. There’s many levels and colors. There’s not just — I mean, I make the joke about the gays, but there’s many, many kinds of gay people like there are many, many kinds of straight people. And you know, he’s one of my gays. He just doesn’t know it because he doesn`t know, you know, who I am, as usual. Behar had the same conversation with liberal “comedian” Margaret Cho on August 25, but Cho had no idea who Scott Brown was. So Behar told her (incorrectly) that Scott Brown posed for Playgirl magazine — when it was really Cosmopolitan.  BEHAR: And he also introduced his daughters in one speech that he gave saying they’re available and he posed for them in bikinis. They were in bikinis. People felt that they were easy targets and available. But she got into trouble because he didn’t like that she called them prostitutes. CHO: Yes, well, I don’t know. I think she can say whatever she wants. And part of her appeal and her glory is that she does. She doesn`t really care. BEHAR: She doesn’t care, the more you criticize, the more she loves it. This logic of Griffin’s doesn’t always work — CNN did bump her off their New Year’s Eve program as she incessantly tried to embarrass Anderson Cooper.

Bradley Cooper, Ryan Reynolds To Star In Upcoming Buddy Cop Film

Duo will reportedly play police officers who are forced to work on a case with their fathers. By Adam Rosenberg Bradley Cooper Photo: Jun Sato/ Getty Images Deadpool and the A-Team’s Faceman may soon be fighting crime together. It’s an odd pairing that will be made even stranger by the fact that each will bring his dad along. Heartthrob Ryan Reynolds and equally heartthrobby Bradley Cooper are attached to star together in an untitled action comedy, according to The Hollywood Reporter . The duo will star as a pair of San Francisco cops who are forced to work with their former-cop fathers on a case. THR reports that the comedy is “meant to have an updated ‘Lethal Weapon’ flavor that plays into edgier R-rated territory,” so expect profanity and lewd behavior to go along with the high body count. The script comes from “Up in the Air” scribe Sheldon Turner, who reportedly sold it for a seven-figure sum. The pitch was first developed by producers Neal Moritz and Andrew Panay five years ago with the title “Blowback”; back then, Dwayne Johnson was attached as one of the stars. Moritz and Panay are producing this second crack at the concept, as are J.C. Spink and Chris Bender of the production company Benderspink and Jonathon Komack Martin of Reynolds’ Dark Trick Films. No studio is set yet, but Moritz and Panay are set up at Sony. Reynolds has spent this summer shooting and promoting next summer’s “Green Lantern” adaptation. He’ll show up next month in Lionsgate’s indie thriller “Buried.” Reynolds is also supposed to be reprising his 2009 role as the joke-cracking mercenary Deadpool in a reboot of the character that Robert Rodriguez may direct. Cooper showed up earlier this summer as Faceman in “The A-Team.” He’s got a sequel to the smash 2009 comedy “The Hangover” lined up for a May release. He also recently finished shooting for Neil Burger’s sci-fi thriller “The Dark Fields” with Robert De Niro and Abbie Cornish. What do you think of Ryan Reynolds and Bradley Cooper being in a movie together? Let us know in the comments!

‘The Other Guys’: Five Secrets Revealed

Find out more about the Mark Wahlberg/Will Ferrell comedy, including the reason behind its many TLC quotes. By Eric Ditzian Mark Wahlberg and Will Ferrell in “The Other Guys” Photo: Sony Pictures On Friday, we revealed five secrets about Will Ferrell and Mark Wahlberg’s buddy cop flick “The Other Guys,” , from the explanation for Paris Hilton’s missing cameo to how they managed to get such a curse-filled movie to be rated PG-13. We got the inside scoop from co-writer/director Adam McKay, who called up MTV News shortly before the film opened and went on to reel in $35.6 million over the weekend . McKay also let slip a bunch of other secrets that were simply too spoilery to publish on Friday (August 9). Now, as “Other Guys” enjoys its place at the top of the box office, we’re pushing forward with five more secrets revealed (of course, beware of spoilers below!) . Why Jackson and Johnson Plunged Off a Roof to Their Deaths This out-of-nowhere game-changer comes about 15 minutes into the movie: the tough-guy cops played by Samuel L. Jackson and Dwayne Johnson actually die after they miscalculate a roof jump and land with a crunch on the sidewalk. McKay told us that they entertained a number of funny and unexpected deaths before settling on the failed roof jump. “The first thought we had was that they get a call for a chase, and they pull out to join it, and just get broadsided by a truck that had nothing to do with the chase,” he said. “Then we just played with the idea of a really ignominious death — autoerotic asphyxiation — but we knew there was no way we could get that into a PG-13 movie. Even though it makes me and you laugh, 80 percent of the audience would be flat-out horrified. The one we really liked — and we came close to doing it — was that they were in a shootout and they just got shot. If you have too many shootouts, you’re going to get shot. I think even the forensic guy was like, ‘They were in 90 shootouts. You’re gonna get shot eventually.’ “But the jump was just so much fun,” he continued. “Originally in the script, you didn’t see them hit the ground. But I thought, ‘You gotta shoot that.’ It could be either grisly or fantastic. Once the Foo Fighters’ song got in, we knew we had it. For a second, you think you’re watching the worst filmmaking ever. Are they really playing this song during a fake Hollywood jump? And then they die!” How They Pulled Off The Motion-Capture Bar Scene The film’s most visually stunning scene is one that even James Cameron might applaud. It’s a freeze-frame, continuous-shot bar scene in which Ferrell and Wahlberg are caught mid-action in a series of drunken incidents. The scene honestly defies easy explanation, which is why we waited until now to reveal how McKay captured it. “My DP, Oliver Wood, and I had seen this Phillips short film with cops fighting clowns ,” he explained. “We loved it, but I think that cost $4 million to shoot. At first we were going to do digital camera stills, and I just thought that was boring and we kind of did that already on ‘Talladega Nights.’ Then Oliver said, ‘I think we can do the Phillips thing,’ and in four days we came up with the plan. “We got this motion-capture camera that you program so the camera moves exactly the same every time,” he added. “It was similar to what they did in ‘The Matrix’ with the flying bullets. They weren’t wearing motion-capture suits. I wish I had thought of that. I would have made Will wear one for no reason. We just wrote joke scenarios of a night gone horribly wrong. We went to this bar on the Upper West Side [of Manhattan] and shot it in half a day. We cast stuntmen and women who could hold poses. Our special effects company, Evil Eye, added all these funny elements.” Why Keaton Quotes TLC Michael Keaton plays the NYPD precinct captain who’s always barking orders at Ferrell and Wahlberg. He also has a strange and hilarious habit of quoting TLC lyrics without seemingly having any idea who that group is. It’s a gem of a recurring bit, and it came about entirely by accident. “We were trying to write phrases for the captain that were tough-guy euphemisms,” McKay said. “We had a draft where he said all this crazy stuff and out of that I started to say, ‘Don’t go chasing waterfalls,’ and everyone started laughing. Then we called it back two more times, and then Keaton was doing them so well, we added more.” “We came up with a whole backstory that he drove his son to college and his son played a TLC greatest-hits CD the whole time but the captain was never aware what he was listening to,” he added. “We knew at least 35 percent of the audience would have no idea who TLC is, but we were like, ‘Screw it! It’s too funny!’ ” Why McKay Had Such a Weird Cameo Last week, we revealed why Paris Hilton’s cameo was left on the cutting room floor. Now we turn our attention to McKay’s cameo as a demented homeless man who is the ringleader of a roving gay orgy gang. Yes, it is all as bizarre as it sounds. “We originally had it just as a reference about all the horrible stuff that happens to [Will’s] car [after it gets stolen],” he said. “We did a table re-write and Andrew Steele, the head writer for Funny or Die, came up with this joke that the thieves left a thank you note. That made us laugh, and then we named the thieves Dirty Mike and the Boys. Then we’re like, ‘We’ve got to see them.’ I always like to do something small in our movies, so I was like, ‘All right, it’s me!’ “So we shot this riverside scene and just did thirty minutes of the filthiest improv you’ve ever heard in your life, and had to cut everything except what you see in the movie,” he continued. “But the extended DVD has all the nastiness.” A Sequel Just Might Happen After the collapse of “Anchorman 2” this spring, fans might be wondering if we’ll ever see a sequel from one of the four big-screen collaborations between McKay and Ferrell . McKay revealed that we just might see “The Other Guys 2” down the road. “We had fun shooting this and we talked about it,” he said. “There’s almost a novelty to doing a sequel at this point. The two we were talking about were ‘Step Brothers’ and ‘Other Guys.’ We don’t want to get ahead of ourselves. But I would be happy to go back into this world. I never got tired of seeing Will and Mark going back and forth.” Check out everything we’ve got on “The Other Guys.” For breaking news, celebrity columns, humor and more — updated around the clock — visit MTVMoviesBlog.com .

Scarborough Justifies Decision Not to Talk about Gore Sexual Allegation on ‘Morning Joe’; Calls Topic ‘Unfair’

It’s already been documented that the media have, at least initially, ignored the allegation the global warming alarmist-in-chief and former Vice President Al Gore faced a sexual assault charge in 2006. But why? Although not know for its enlightening commentary, ABC’s June 24 broadcast of “The View” offered an answer for that question. Subbing a moderator for the show’s panel was MSNBC “Morning Joe” host Joe Scarborough, who explained their decision to ignore it was based on “insufficient evidence” despite the police report documenting the allegation. “This is an interesting story,” Scarborough said. “A 2006 police report surfaced of a masseuse claiming former Vice President Al Gore repeatedly attempted, quote, ‘unwanted sexual contact with her during a hotel room massage which lasted for three hours.’ Detectives found insufficient evidence to support the allegations, which leads to my question first, Joy. Should we be talking about it at all? This was in The Oregonian. We decided this morning not to talk about it on ‘Morning Joe’ because there was insufficient evidence. The Oregonian picked it up, then the National Enquirer. Everybody’s going to be talking about it. Should we?” Panelist Joy Behar, who also hosts a HLN primetime show said she suspected there was more to Al Gore’s marital problems than was initially let on. “I’ve been saying all along, though that there is something more to the breakup,” Behar said. “This is the ‘Tipper’ of the iceberg because I think that in fact the guy has a history now. I’m beginning to believe it.” But that wasn’t fair to Gore, who now apparently has a friend in Joe Scarborough. He disagreed with Behar’s assertion. “But we don’t know that,” Scarborough protested. “We’re piling on.” A little later, Scarborough labeled the entire story – that a former sitting vice president would be the subject of such “unfair” media scrutiny. “Let’s get back to Al Gore,” Scarborough said. “Really quickly though, I want to get back to what I think is the unfairness to Al Gore because those of us in New York know that there was a rumor on the front page of the New York Post last week – an unfounded, but a rumor that everybody in New York talked about. Now we’ve got another story out there in The Oregonian. Where there’s smoke, there’s not always fire.” Behar relented and conceded there was a degree of unfairness. “It’s not really fair to the guy,” Behar said. “I’m a comedian. I’m going to go for the joke no matter who it is. It’s not fair.”
