Dodgeball

Ah, revolution. I like revolution. Revolution is my stock-in-trade, I'll cause 'em, I'll prevent 'em, and I'll watch movies about 'em. And if ever there was such a movie, well, this is sort of kinda one of them. Well, it's a little bit Capitalistic, what with the money, and such, but hey, nothing's perfect. Even I'm not perfect, despite hundreds of operations to make me more so. For example, I can see in the upper infra-red, but I can't see green. Seriously, I can't see the color green, it's really screwy. Surely, a glitch, and not an inherent defect in any of my equipment, which was created in my homeland by socialist workers doing all they could for the greater good. And never cutting corners, because they know that ultimately harms everyone, even their personal loss is intangible.

Seriously, I'm sure it's just a glitch.

This particular story features the small, hearty, working class battling the undeservedly rich and powerful. Only, instead of a bloody coup, it's a game of dodgeball. Similar in many ways, yes? It's basically a metaphor for the Communist revolt. Only, um, a comedy about people playing a grade school game that involves throwing rubber balls at one another. It's a stretch, I guess. A big stretch. Okay, I'll admit it, it's got nothing to do with the coming revolution whatsoever, I just think it's funny. It's an amusing movie! I enjoyed it greatly! I would recommend it!

... I have nothing else to say, really... uh... sorry. It's good. I have it in my inbuilt DVD player right now, ready to watch or project for others to watch at a moment's notice. If you come across me, I'd be glad to show it to you. Uh, the DVD player has a little glitch, so I can't turn off French subtitles, but I'm sure that's just a glitch.

The verdict: five out of five. What can I say? I liked it.
