We all love or want to appreciate movies that have some sort of artistic merit. 'The most creative display of cinematographic excellence I have ever seen', 'The most poetic dialogue of all time', 'The movie that started a new genre'.
You know what? Sometimes you just want the perfect excuse of enjoying couple hours without overly thinking what is actually represented by what you have seen, or whether there is an underlying universal theme in a movie. Sometimes, you just want to eat that piece of cake, rather than appreciate how awesome it looks.
Every time I feel sad, depressed, angry etc. I pop this one in. I have probably watched it more than 20 times, and every time I watch it, it still leaves me roaring in laughter. This is one of the most enjoyable, quotable, and entertaining (and many other superlative adjectives inserted here) movies I have ever seen. From the start to the finish it is pure joy. It never takes itself too seriously, but it delivers exactly what it promises, and to me that is COMEDY GOLD.
Endlessly one unforgettable line after another, ('My favorite date is April 25th, not too hot not too cold, all you need is a light jacket', 'That would be harsher punishment for parole violators Stan.... and World Peace', 'I am gliding here!' 'My parents don't like anything ostentatious and they don't like fire' 'Kathy: This is Texas everybody has a gun. My florist has a gun. Stan: My ancestors were Quakers) even now as I write these lines, I start laughing uncontrollably. If movies are meant to bring you joy, well, then for me nothing comes closer than this and 'Emperor's New Groove'.
A true 10/10.
