Ryan's review:

DVD NOT TO PICK OF THE WEEK:

A MIGHTY WIND

I gave this film a pretty good review, but I have to say, this thing is just boring. It was my sure bet DVD buy of the year. I mean, there is no such thing as a Guest mocumemtery that is not worth owning on DVD. Well, I watched 15 minutes of it and got so bored I that I found myself thinking about my day at work and what I needed to do to prepare for a productive Friday. No. This movie is absolutely not as good as its predecessors, at least not its first 15 minutes. Musically it is great, and it does have heart, but funny is funny, and this stuff just ain’t it. I want to like it; I really do, as evidenced by my theatrical review. However, our reviews are way too kind. Nate raved about MATRIX RELOADED, and I was really nice about it too. It is very hard to be taken seriously as a real and honest film expert with lapses in judgment like these. There is a difference between wanting to like something and really digging something.
I want to like new Pearl Jam albums - I like Coldplay.
I want to like Miles Davis - I like Eminem.
I want to like sex with girls - I like sex with furniture. No not really, but you get the point.
