"You think I'm gorgeous, you want to kiss me..."

We put the cuffs on our Crime Corner July series and throw away the key with our episode all about 2000's "Miss Congeniality"!

Sandy B. is on fire in this one, anyone could attest to that. Accompanying her are heavy hitters like Candice Bergen, William Shatner, and of course the effervescent Michael Caine bring a level of panache. And lest we forget, a stunningly hot Benjamin Bratt rounds out the cast with his smarminess.

A classic early 2000's comedy, this one pulls all the right strings in balancing comedy and action, while bringing a little bit of that down-home goodness that only Sandra Bullock can bring to the table. But of course, it goes without saying this movie's blatant sexism and objectification of women is on full display and is a product of its time.

Despite the flaws, this movie is enjoyable mostly in part to the dynamic and fun cast. This movie also holds a special place in Joe's heart for a number of awe-worthy reasons!

Stay tuned for our next series where we explore sports movies, literally kicking off with a Justin pick: "Varsity Blues"!

"Mother of God."

Expecting 1987's "Robocop?" Well guess again, muchachos. We're hitting the highway with the comedy cult classic from 2002, Broken Lizard's "Super Troopers."

A deeply nostalgic cut from Justin's teenage years that surprisingly (but also not so surprisingly) did not hit the mark with Joe. Call it differing tastes, or simply chalk it up to a movie comedy that's nearing 20 years old showing its age. Irregardless, this movie still slaps and hits for the most part, with its deceivingly straightforward plot, but heavily peppered in with some classic early-2000's raunch and physical comedy.

Following up our Crime Corner July, faux law enforcement mini series will be the 2000 action comedy starring Uncultured Universe fav Sandra Bullock, "Miss Congeniality!"

"Go drink a bottle of yourself."

Rounding out the SNL mini series with the late 90's Catholic school "teen" comedy, "Superstar," starring Molly Shannon as the zany yet earnest Mary Katherine Gallagher.

Again, the SNL studios crew managed to extrapolate and bring a small screen character and world to life with this movie, and with classic 90's gusto. Justin and Joe discuss the unique comedy of Molly Shannon and Will Ferrell, the wonderfully villainous nature of Elaine Hendrix's Evian, and this movie's insane one-liners ("Mary Magdelicious!")

Join us in July where we take an interesting turn towards two cop movies that could not be any more different, starting with 1987's "Robocop."
