Directed by Florian Gallenberger; Emma Watson’s latest film sees her join a religious sect in search of her abducted boyfriend (Daniel Brühl).
I like this edit of the trailer far more than I did the original. There aren’t many films starring women as the person who has to orchestrate the rescue of a lover, so you understand how Colonia can be quite appealing.
I’ll be cheering for what will hopefully be a successful escape for Watson and Brühl’s characters. Also, I’m currently looking for another movie to add to my list of ‘starring Emma Watson favourites’. As a non-Harry Potter fanatic, the only film currently on said list is This Is The End (2013), a movie I love of course, but said list could do with some growth.
I learned today that two close friends of mine do not find Seth Rogen and Evan Goldberg’s This Is The End (2013) funny. After getting over the initial shock and coming to terms with it, I made an effort to understand by running through the possible reasonable explanations:
They haven’t watched or enjoyed Pineapple Express (2008), Superbad (2007)Knocked Up (2007) or other great comedies by Rogen and Goldberg.
They must not have been in the right frame of mind to properly appreciate the movie’s greatness. I mean, I do believe that you have to be ‘in the mood‘ for certain films (comedy, drama, action, horror, etc.) to get the best out of them.
They were too tired to pay due attention.
Following my analysis, none of the above explanations were correct. I was therefore left with the only possible answer. Something is very wrong with both of my friends. As such, attempting to make further sense of the situation is a fool’s errand.
I wonder, what do you think? Did you find This Is The End funny or am I mistaken? I know deep down that I’m not, of course. But it’s generally nice to ask.
