The holidays are usually a good time to catch a couple movies in the theaters. You usually have some extra time on your hands, movie companies usually plan a couple blockbusters to release around this time of year and the weather is shitty enough outside that you don’t feel guilty for sitting on your ass for two hours gorging yourself with buttery popcorn, the world’s largest soda and chocolate covered whatever.

Last night fellow TastyBoozers Mr. Wonka and Bill Brasky, took in a viewing of “Walk Hard” with me. Although it seems like every movie out or coming out has something to do with “the guys who brought you ‘Knocked Up’ and ‘The 40-Year Old Virgin,’” our friend Judd Apatow can still bring the funny. John C. Reilly does a great job throughout the movie chronicling the life of Dewey Cox and I was surprised at the quality of the original music. Also, impressive was Apatow’s consciousness to not over use the obvious “cox” jokes, but knew the right time to insert them (pun intended). Jenna Fischer (Pam from The Office) again proves her ability to be hot. The rest of the movie is filled with cameos, so keep an eye out for these and your own personal “Crying Game” after one scene.

Overall, “Walk Hard” was definitely worth the price of admission and would be a great way to either close out 2007 or ring in 2008.
