Observe and Report (2009)Directed by Jody Hill, rated R, 86 minutes
Observe and Report is an extremely dark, but incredibly funny cult comedy about a bi-polar mall cop who will stop at nothing to catch the mall's flasher, but he has to compete with the real police in his effort to catch the man. Seth Rogen ditches his usual everyman character, and jarringly, but aptly takes on a dark, twisted but still likable character. The story takes notes from Taxi Driver, but is filled with hilarious bits
and memorable dialogue. Observe and Report is definitely not for everyone, it's filled with very dark, controversial and tragic moments, but it ends up being one of funniest and most unforgettable comedies in recent memory. You'll like it if: You like dark comedies, controversial movies, films about
loneliness, Seth Rogen, Taxi Driver, Pineapple Express or The Foot Fist Way.
