- A scooper got an early look at Jason Lee’s upcoming “A Guy Thing” and seemed to like it. Here’s her review:
I enjoyed it & laughed more than I did during Stealing Harvard.
In the scheme of Lee flicks, on a scale of 1-10 (Stealing Harvard being a 1, Amy or Almost Famous a 10) I’d give it a 6. In the grand scheme of moviedom I’d give it a 5. He’s done better, he’s done worse.
It’s in there w/Kissing a Fool or American Cuisine w/less kissing.
It’s a comedy chick flick, yet surprisingly w/a few gross outs for the guys, but w/gags that have been done many times before.
Lotsa Jason, Selma was underused, Julia was a cutie & I would’ve gladly offered to scratch that itch he had.
I must say though that the audience in the theatre was laughing like crazy (a little over the top laughter for my tastes but hey, they liked it & there were critics there too) & on the way out people were talking about his performance & how much they enjoyed it & him.
I think there could’ve been better choices in flicks to put him in good standing w/Harvey Weinstein but it’s way better than Stealing Harvard.
I wasn’t disappointed @ all.
Catch Lee on TV in these upcoming appearances:
- Friday, January 17th, The Early Show – 7:00 AM.
- Hot Tix (this weekend) – a syndicated movie review show w/Leonard Maltin, check the local listings for that one.
- Behind the Scenes: A Guy Thing – Airing on E! Thurs. Jan 16th. 6:30PM, Additional Airings Friday, 24 2:00 PM, Saturday, 25 7:00 AM, Sunday, 26 3:00 AM, Sunday, 26 7:30 AM, Monday, 27 3:30 AM.
Here’s hoping that “A Guy Thing” does good, as any good Lee box office should make it a lot easier to convince the folks at Miramax that Lee’s the man to head up “Fletch Won” with Kevin.
