Hubris

I'm about to make a shocking confession, one that will probably get me thrown out of the 'guy union' for life, but we all know it's true. Here's goes: Women Are Smarter Than Men. There, let the chips fall where they may. But, you have to admit, even if only silently to yourself, it's just damn true. And if you don't believe it, then just ask your wife or girlfriend about something that happened years ago. A woman can remember things for years and years, and, us guys, are doing good to remember what we had for breakfast by dinnertime. By now you're wondering to yourself, what the hell is Brian rambling about, well, let me tell you, I just watched a great movie...not a good movie, a great movie called Hubris.



Here's the story: Barry is a lonely guy who just wants a date. His married friend Jeremy is a "smooth talker" who knows how to deal with the ladies. So, Jeremy sets up a plan to go to an exclusive speed dating club, where he and his friends will make the ladies hate them so much that, no matter what Barry does, he's sure to get a date because he'll look so good by comparison! A great plan and one that I'm sure has been tried by real guys! Well, as go all best laid plans of us men, this one falls apart. I'd tell you how, but that would just ruin it, you really need to see this one for yourself!

Hubris is about relationships, dating and so much more. It's one of the best written things I've seen in years, the acting is great and the dialogue is extremely realistic, unlike most comedies that throw aside great dialogue in favor of one liners and jokes while Hubris goes with dialogue that reminds me of the days when all the guys would hang out, the talk would always turn to girls and biological functions...just like in Hubris. I'm giving Hubris 4 out of 4 cigars,

because while this movie is a comedy, having been around guys, it's really very close to a documentary! If you'd like to check it out for yourself, head on over to Hubris The Movie.com and see for yourself, and I personally can't wait for Gary King's sequel to this funny funny movie! And, until next time, when I'll tell you about the time my friends and I got thrown out of the local topless bar...I thought it was sexy to tell the waitress that I wanted to bite her nose, yes I was that drunk, until then, remember that the best movies are bad movies.
