http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1053880/
The film I decided to show this week is the 2009 film Frenemey (little fish strange pond). I stumbled on this film by accident thinking at the time that it was Due Date because of how the poster looked but what I got was just about the opposite of what I expected and I never regretted picking up this film. Frenemy is the story of Mr. Jack and Sweet Stephen, who, cruise aimlessly through the streets of LA speculating about life, death, divine will and the force of power that predetermines their existence. Mr. Jack attempts to illustrate to his sidekick the delicate and natural forces of the universe.it does sounds a bit strange if you write it out like that but it is very interesting especially for people who like more psychological probing films. I was very surprised when I saw the comments on this movie because the movie is quite good. Most people were mad because they thought the movie was due date since galifianakis was on the cover and expected that type of comedy. While others were mad because of who the director of the film was (I won’t go into any greater detail with that one) but that shouldn’t really matter if the job was done right.

  1. I haven't seen this movie, but I agree with you that people should not be judging it based on the fact that it is not Due Date or that it has a certain director. I think Galifianakis is extremely funny and for that reason, would love to give the movie a try. From your description, it sounds pretty interesting. I first heard of Galifianakis after The Hangover came out as many did, but since then I have seen some of his standup and have come to enjoy him even more. I hope I get the chance to check out Frenemy in the future.
