Delivery Man
Good 17 Points 2013

The Vince Vaughn formula is tweaked a little in to more of a feel-good movie than a goofy comedy. Of course, the premise is quite goofily-funny: someone who went on a sperm-donation spree 20 years ago finds out he is the father to over 500 kids, and 150 of them want to find out who he is. Yes, …

Hud
Very Good 66 Points 1963

Paul Newman wanted to be bad and got his wish with Hud. He plays a charismatic asshole, a user and abuser whose evil becomes increasingly evident as the movie rolls along. Three Oscars came in its wake, though King Cool himself had to be satisfied with just a nomination. Think Hud would’ve s…
