SPOILER-FREE FILM REVIEWS FROM A MOVIE LOVER WITH A HEART OF GOLD!

From the land of 10,000 lakes comes a fan of 10,000 movies!

The Silver Bullet ~ Fun Size

Synopsis: Wren’s plan to attend a huge Halloween party thrown by the guy she likes goes awry when she’s put in charge of her oddball little brother, who quickly wanders off on his own.

Release Date:  October 26, 2012

Thoughts: Hello, my name is Joe and I’m a sucker for these kinds of movies that ride the fence between teenybopper cinema and more adult comedy.  When the preview began and the Nickelodeon logo appeared I anticipated yet another sigh and release sort of effort that I’d pass on in the theaters/Redbox.  Surprisingly, this looks to be a vehicle clearly made for the tween crowd but one I wouldn’t mind taking a further look at.  Having Johnny Knoxville and Chelsea Handler in the mix also raised my critical eyebrow – known for their adult comedy there had to have been something that attracted them to the project.  Additionally, the trailer has a nice share of laughs and the film seems to be made with a crisp shine to it.  I’m sure the overall effect of Fun Size will be just that…small and forgettable but it might just be satiating enough for October audiences.
