 Drillbit Taylor

I wanted to see this because Owen Wilson is in it - obviously before his mental breakdown. I don’t know if I liked it a bit, or a bit more than a little bit, but I didn’t love it. It was obviously using the SuperBad formula; take a fat kid who thinks he is awesome, a small skinny nerd kid, and dump them into the big bad world.  They hire a personal bodyguard to stop their asses being pounded, but find out he’s a double-crossing hobo. I guess they couldn’t do much and keep it within the PG rating range, but it did well for what it was. It was noticeable that Owen Wilson wasn’t as funny as he could be, and that the kids were terrible actors. Good kids popcorn movie, but don’t expect anything great from it.
