Directed by Peter Farrelly, Ricky Stanicky follows three childhood best friends who pull a prank gone wrong. They invent the imaginary Ricky Stanicky to get them out of trouble!

Twenty years after creating this ‘friend,’ Dean, JT, and Wes, played by Zac Efron, Andrew Santino, and Jermaine Fowler, still use the nonexistent Ricky as a handy alibi for their immature behavior.

When their spouses and partners get suspicious and demand to meet the fabled Mr. Stanicky, the guilty trio hires a washed-up actor and raunchy celebrity impersonator, “Rock Hard” Rod, played by John Cena. Together, they bring him to life.

But when Rod takes his role of a lifetime too far, they begin to wish they’d never invented Ricky. Additional cast members include William H. Macy, Lex Scott Davis and Anja Savcic.

comedy, , , , ,

Written and directed by Harmony Korine, The Beach Bum follows a crazy, over-the-top poetic burnout named Moondog, played by Matthew McConaughey. He is trying to write his “great American novel” and experience sexual relations in rapid succession.

The eclectic includes Isla Fisher, Snoop Dog, Jimmy Buffet, Martin Lawerence, and Zac Efron. Watch the movie trailer and get a feel for the movie.

The next five movie clips show the craziness of this movie. The clip with the dolphin boat captain is funny but the editing is rough. I am not quite sure what the message is in the movie. I am thinking he makes up for his estrangement from his daughter.

Directed by Michael Gracey, The Greatest Showman stars the talented cast, including Hugh Jackman, Zac Efron, Michelle Williams, Rebecca Ferguson, and Zendaya. The original songs by the Oscar Winning lyricists for the movie La La Land are Benj Pasek and Justin Paul.

The trailer is so upbeat and promising. I know there will be no letdown at the box office or a disappointment in the movie theaters.

The story follows Jackman’s character Inspired by the imagination of P.T. Barnum. The trailer shows off an original musical that celebrates the birth of show business while telling a magical story of a visionary who rose from nothing to create a spectacle that became a worldwide sensation.

The Blu-ray and DVD have hit the streets and is available if you want to see the movie again or you haven’t seen it yet. Now it is your chance. My daughter saw the film for the first time while flying from Atlanta to Sacramento. She said the music was phenomenal, and Zac Efron was outstanding.

I just saw it last night and wish the second act was stronger but loved the music. I have to admit. I became interested in P.T. Barnum’s life. I did a little research and discovered his life is worth telling, and it is a story to be said – fantastic character.

This trailer shows a more modern twist in the music. Interesting way, it might grab the attention of younger audiences like teenagers.

Directed by Seth Gordon, Baywatch follows devoted lifeguard Mitch Buchannon, played by Dwayne Johnson, as he butts heads with a brash recruit, played by Zac Efron. Together, they uncover a local criminal plot that threatens the future of the Bay.

I never watched the TV Show, and I don’t think I will see the movie. Still, I wonder why are the men clad more than the women.
