Movie Critique: The Penthouse (2010)

What a boring movie! --- I’m sorry; I was thinking this movie was going to be splendid, especially since I have a love for those lower budget college-style comedies.  My friend came over with this moving in hopes to cheer me up from the slumps of Wisconsin warm weather is soon leaving us.  First thing she mentions; “Rider Strong with no shirt on” – WINNING!  I <3 Rider Strong.

This movie is based on a reality TV star (who was pretty easy on the eyes, so it intrigued me more) who wins a penthouse and asks his two friends to move in.  One was the annoying guy in Cabin Fever and Rider Strong….also in Cabin Fever but we all know Rider is a 10, so I’m thinking “Movie with a bunch of hotties, this must be good.”  The reality star Tyler’s sister Trista comes to visit before she travels to Europe.  We find out in the movie that Trista (April Scott) and Kieran (Strong) had a childhood crush on each other and end up getting it on; meanwhile Kieran is in a relationship with a girl he doesn’t love but is going to move in with her?  Naughty Rider, naughty!!  The other roommate is a male nurse and he starts sleeping with his doctor who is played by Mya.  His character made me so irritated that I would pray for a scene change so I wouldn’t have to look at him anymore.  This actor always has this smirk look on his face - makes me want to punch the screen….I can’t control my outbursts sometimes.  In the end, the nurse and doc fall in love.  Tyler and his former reality star girlfriend fall back in “love”..or whatever they had.  Kieran’s girlfriend leaves him after catching him in bed with Trista….but Trista heads to Europe and Kieran goes to find her...and then, I assume, they fall in love.  Come on, seriously.  He just finds her in a random restaurant in Europe.  How the fuck would he of known she was there at that time?  Real men can’t seem to find me when I tell them where the heck I’m at!  Reality sure is disappointing!

It was just a lot of drama --- unenlightening drama.  Seriously, that’s how you explain the movie though. There really was no substance to the plot.  It lasted about 90 minutes and the whole time I’m sitting there thinking “huh?”   It’s like they cut out too many scenes to make it 90 minutes and slapped it all together.  The movie contained a lot of drinking, sex, and partying – A rip-off version of the American Pie shit-series (films after American Wedding), a senseless National Lampoon movie, and a mild attempt of the Hangover.

Best thing about this movie?  -- Hot people to look at.  I developed a girl crush on April Scott. If I kissed this girl, I would like it! J 

Worst thing about this movie? -- I lost 90 minutes of my life.  Sounds harsh, but I got all hyped up about something that disappointed me in the end.  HOWEVER, there are many, many worse movies out there….like Cabin Fever 2.

My Lasik Journey

From those who have followed my old blog, you would know that on Saturday, I undergone Laski eye surgery.  My eye sight was pretty bad.  I was nearsighted in one eye and farsighted in the other…this is very rare.  If I couldn’t be any weirder, I found out I’m left eye dominant but I am right handed.  Not sure how I was able to convince the eye doctor that I wasn’t just pulling her chain and pretending to be right handed.  I mean she should have been grateful when I wrote the check of payment in full WITH MY RIGHT HAND!  Ha!  On top of all that, I had a terrible astigmatism…which usually only guarantees an insignificant improvement after lasik.

The day of my surgery happened to be the brightest day I swear of the whole year!  Walking into that office, I knew I’d sure be in for a extravagance.  I met with the surgeon and he explained all in excessive detail the steps of the procedure.  I went into my mental happy place because I know I would have busted through that glass door and ran….I’m very sensitive when it comes to my eyes.

What seemed like hundreds of drops later, I was being swung under a few machines, went blind for a moment when they opened the flap of the eye and saw an annoying bright red blinking light during the actual procedure.  The whole time I’m holding onto this stuffed animal frog.  Well when it came to my right eye, the numbing drops must have worn off.  Let’s just say I sure felt him lift the flap of my eye.  It felt as if someone took a razor blade to my eye ball.  That stuffed frog was being squeezed in my hands.

The whole procedure took about 10 minutes.  I couldn’t stop crying from the blinding sun and the excruciating burning sensations in my eyes.  When I got home, I closed all the blinds…hid out in my bat cave, strapped on my Old School goggles and slept like the whole day.  When I awoke, I got to see the nasty red eye hickeys that I apparently will be having for a few more weeks.  People stare….and its just not my imagination.

LONG story short….Today was my follow up visit.  I have been living on eye drops the past few days.  My eye sight I believe is not too perfect.  It keeps fluctuating and they keep going dry.  The optometrist explained that my eye sight would sharpen in the next few weeks.  Believe it or not, I found out my vision is now 20/20.  I was actually guaranteed by 99% that my eyes wouldn’t even be CLOSE to 20/20.  I’m just flabbergasted! 

I basically see life in a new way.  I see shapes differently and I do not have to guess about things that I’m seeing.  Would I ever get Lasik again if I needed a correction?  HELLS NO!
