Be Kind Rewind stars Jack Black and Mos Def. I'm not a big fan of Jack Black. I actually preferred Mos Def.
Mr. Def takes care of a VHS rental shop while the owner (Danny Glover) is away, and the silly friend, Mr. Black, gets magnetized during one of his crazy shenanigans and erases all the tapes by accident (sigh).
Anyway, the movie wasn't great. I suppose it was a good movie but just not my style. I felt like it didn't know what it wanted to be. I suppose it attempted to be a dramatic-comedy, and has parts of each genre, but doesn't pull of either very well in the long run.
I did laugh a lot for their filming of Ghostbusters, and a little bit for Rush Hour 2, but that was about it. Jack Black was suppose to provide more comic relieve, but I really don't find him that funny.
Back to the movie. They had sub plots throughout the movie, but I find that they didn't fit well. For example, they showed almost no sexual tension between 2 of the characters until an unexpected moment in one scene, which felt awkward and misplaced.
The rest was just kind of.... blah. It didn't hold my interest. It was a good story I suppose (or at least the premise), but not one I cared about.
