Used a free movie coupon to see again escape the heat. Unfortunately the options across the street aren't great (either had already seen or didn't particularly want to see) so settled for Year One over My Sister's Keeper since it started 10 minutes sooner (and if that isn't quite a divergent set of options to leave to a toin coss).
I wouldn't quite say Year One sucked. It is, however, nearly spectucular in its mediocrity. And Michael Cera grows increasingly wearying. I really wish he'd stayed out of the Arrested Development movie since that is going to just be yet another performance from him that could have been done entirely by digitally inserting into the movie his identical roles from previous movies.
He doesn't need to go all Shia The Beef with action work but doing something different would be appreciated. I no longer hope for that from Jack Black.
Distracting was the fact that June Diane Raphael looked really familiar (looking at her credits suggests this was a phantom familiarity) and halfway through I'd halfway convinced myself it was Sarah Chalke with different hair and losing a bit of weight. But not so convinced I could stop chewing over who she was.
