There are some funny moments in History of the World Part 1 but overall, it doesn't hold up well. 2.5/5

 

Happy_birthday_to_me

Happy Birthday to Me is a slow, gimmick movie that has all the good parts happening off screen. If you're a slasher and you don't show the kills, what's the point? 2/5

Piranha-shark
Piranha is a fun movie but isn't particularly good. It is good fodder for a remake, which I can't wait to see. 2.75/5

Better than I remembered but still not a good movie. Honestly, how did this movie get made. It's so random and pointless. 2.5/5

 

Theburbs

Great movie. The 'burbs holds up incredibly well. I wish Joe Dante would make more movies 3.75/5
