The apocalypse happens, and a bunch of average celebrities try to survive.
Moderately terrible. Worth a watch if you like these particular actors and their previous works.
Based on the short film Jay and Seth versus the Apocalypse (2007 short movie), by Evan Goldberg and Jason Stone.

To judge the Earth, aliens grant a single man the power of wishing, but he’s an everyday guy and has no idea how to handle it.
A moderately good movie, with solid comedy throughout it. I only really care about it because of its subject matter and the way it handles it. Strangely, he grants himself wisdom early on but never clues into using it to give him proper understanding of it and how to use it. That’s the major theme of the movie, and the source of its comedy.

Short and funny.

A guy, trying to finally pull his life together, has it ruined by a woman who forces him into fatherhood.
Very funny, but ultimately dark as hell.
The woman in the poster is in the movie. I assume they photoshopped some cracker onto her.

A comedic commentary of Aeon Flux – (2005 movie).
Although amusing and with a few laugh-out-loud moments, this is mostly a waste of time. The RiffTrax concept might be nice for either fans or haters of a film, but this RiffTrax of this movie was not particularly entertaining to me. I’ll likely get into other RiffTrax’s later, so perhaps my opinion will change, but for now I don’t recommend this.

Instead of being allowed to sleep in on his day off, a man is called in to work an extra shift at his convenience store job, and his day goes to complete shit.
The acting is a little halted in places, since these are mostly or perhaps entirely first-timers, but the writing is spectacular. It’s got great flow and style, and is hilarious and memorable.
I first rented this as a VHS tape back in the day, and was immediately impressed. I’m glad this movie, and its author, have done well.
Re-issued as “Clerks. X”

A child with an allergy to peanuts hallucinates an indian statue as Tonto telling him a story with the Lone Ranger.
Johnny Depp has started taking terrible cornball roles, and this movie is a steaming pile of shit. His native-American character feels cringeworthingly blackface-esque. I can see how the occasional comedic bit can make a movie fun, but the entire spirit of this movie feels just a touch too serious for there to be the right comedy-adventure feeling like that in Pirates of the Caribbean꞉ The Curse of the Black Pearl – (2003 movie).

A mockumentary about four vampire flatmates in New Zealand.
Bad. This is supposed to be comedy. I’m not laughing. From what little I saw, I doubt it will get any better.

When attacked, an idiot stoner learns he has training he never knew he had.
An unintellectual fluffy bubblegum action movie. Easy on the brain and good for the common man. Not a spy movie as such. Recommended for beers and popcorn with friends. Still worth a watch for others who can just barely tolerate such brain-candy.

The bar for entry into the police force is lowered, and misfits enter the police academy.
Overall, this was worth a couple of laughs, but the sexism and racism need to be viewed too in-context for me to deal with it. This language/culture/whatever difference removes any chance of timelessness this movie might have had.
The Police Academy (franchise):
