It is quite common for comedic actors to take a chance for dramatic roles, trying to show that they can do more than just reduce people's funny bones, but sometimes they don't. Actor Jimim Kerry had more than proven as a comical force to be considered in the 90's and early 2000s before showing off his more serious side in films as a biopctic Andy Kaufmann's "Moon Man" in 1999 and Surreal scientific romance "Eternal Sunshine of a Spotless Mind" in 2004. Kerry can Wear a drama, it seemed, and then he starred in the absolutely abimal Elloel Schumacher's "number 23" thriller. Although it was a modest success in the box office, partly to a fairly intense banking marketing campaign by Kerry's Starvist, critics split the film - seriously, there is only 7% fresh rating of Rotten tomatoes.

Look, I have a long defense history The other great big project of Schumacher and Kerry, "Batman forever", But there are really not many qualities for redemption of "number 23" It feels like a cobblestone movie together with the aesthetics and ideas of other films, with a central plot of spending around a man who becomes obsessed with the number 23 and a book that seems to reflect his life.

Written by Fernli Phillips, who has no other credits for the script of his name outside "number 23", the film is a hot chaos of visual and ideas that have never gathered. Since Walter Sparrow (Kerry) begins to read the book number 23 given to him by his wife and begins to expose himself, convinced that he has a huge conspiracy, the world around him seems to begin to fall apart. "Number 23" feels little as if someone watched movies like "Memento" and The devastating "machinist" and said, "I can do it" without really thinking Why Different twists were important. Instead, "number 23" is so wrapped in selling its different twists and turns that the audience can leave to wonder why they really care.

Kerry has been in some fantastic movies for yearsBoth comical and serious, but "number 23" just doesn't work. It is so deeply self -directly that we almost end up getting back to be funny, and while it's pretty stylish, it's also pretty dating. Fortunately for horror fans, Kerry was at least in a decent, a little scary trembling ... It's just going to be a comedy.

While "number 23" is a pretty bad weather, the Horror Comedy in 1985 "Once Kapin", which follows that Mark of Jimim Kerry, a Virgo of High School, ends as a prey to the 400-year-old Vampire Countess (Lauren Hutton) is a lot of fun. "Once Capit" was a directorial debut on comedy television regular Howard Storm, and it is a delicious little sexy comedy in the 1980s with a little extra bite. Similar to "number 23", "once capte" was quite excited by critics, but it has been developed cult following decades since then (partly due to regular projections of Comedy Central in the 2000s and early 2010). Certain things do not age perfect, but what kind of comedy in the 1980s is honest?

"Once Bitten" is not flawless, but it is very fun, ranking it between one of Best unconventional vampire movies there. If you want to watch Jimim Carrie in something with horror, do it "once bitten" instead of "number 23", or just go the horrors that free as fire Marshall was on Instead, a sketch comedy series "In Living Color". Now That is fun.
