(Silent humor) Movie reviews The Assassination of a High School President

By Mr D Stevens

  Movie reviews this week looks at the suspense thriller The Assassination of a High School President.

It stars Reece Thompson as Bobby Funke (he constantly has to remind everyone his name is not “funky” but it doesn’t stop anyone from calling him that) and the lovely Mischa Barton (St. Trinians) as Francesca Fachini, the girlfriend of the High School President.

Bobby is trying to write a paper for the local school and from it get acceptance into North Western’s journalist programme, he first has to get the approval of the head columnist Clara played by Melonie Diaz (Be Kind Rewind) who Bobby also likes, but
not as much as he likes the girlfriend of the High School President Patrick Moore played by Paul Taylor, something about this reminds me of “Bart got a room”.

It turns out someone has stolen the entire schools SAT’s from the Principal’s locker, Principal Kirkpatrick a former war veteran who doesn’t waste anytime reminding the students how patriotic it is to fight for one’s country, played hilariously by Bruce Willis (Die Hard). He apparently has a list of the usual suspects, and calls them in, including Bobby, Bobby innocently asks the reason why he has been summoned, to which Principal Kirkpatrick says “for chewing gum”. Apparently Principal Kirkpatrick is a stickler about gum chewing, there is a funny scene where Bobby is trying to convey some important information to the Principal, but replies after a much heated conversation with “is that gum in your mouth”?

Bobby is given an opportunity to find out who stole the schools SAT’s by the Principal, and he sees this as his big chance to get into North Western, if he can identify the thief/thieves with a well written story.

Although unrealistic, he takes the role of an investigative journalist, interviewing all the suspects, and they all seem candid, which is a little unrealistic for high school, but that doesn’t ruin a great story.

There is a well played scene, where Bobby is interviewing the little sister of the High School President, Chrissy Moore played by Gabrielle Brennan, she tells him she will tell him all of Patrick’s secrets if he gets her a unicorn, to which he replies unicorns aren’t real, and she makes a scowl pointing at she wants one of the unicorn dolls they are surrounded by.

In his investigations Bobby inevitably gets the attention of the current High School President’s girlfriend, and amazing as it seems she falls for him after his article, much to the surprise of all involved, there is a great scene where he asks her what she sees in him, to which she replies she gets the feeling he would still look at her in the same way if there was no school.

He also interviews the Vice-President played by Luke Grimes (Ryan Lafferty in Brothers and Sisters), the half-brother of Francesca, who seems at first to have no problems with Byron going out with his half-sister.

It is an interesting story, focusing on the challenges of high school for acceptance, and getting along with those who are popular. It also has a few unforeseen twists and plots that makes it that little bit more interesting, and Bobby gets to find out that not everything is what it seems.

A good Prank Video is worth a great deal

By Shane Fallas

  If you are looking for a good Prank video that will make you laugh like crazy, you need not look too far for what you want. Have you ever pulled a prank on someone just to see what their reaction is going to be? If you have, you are not alone at all. Are you aware of how many people have been pranked? There is a series on one of the cable channels that is actually called Pranked in which people are constantly being pranked by those they know.

There are a lot of people that really like that series because it shows two different things: 1) how far people are willing to go to get a laugh out of others and 2) how those people actually do react to these pranks. This is similar to the reason that people like watching prank videos. They like watching other people get the wits scared out of them for one reason or another. If you are one of the people that likes watching others get pranked you are probably looking for places to find these types of videos that you will not have to deal with stuff that you do not want to watch.

There are many people that think that a Prank video is also a funny video. This is something that websites like vidbang.com and frickenfunnyvideos.com has been trying to do for those that really like watching videos of all sorts. There are sp many different types of videos that people have been looking for. The reasons that they are looking for these videos vary from wanting to have something very funny to watch to finding a seriously sexy video to watch that will make them laugh or have them thinking some very sexy thoughts because of what they are watching.

You might think that prank videos are something that you want no part of because you think that you are above something like that; or that something like that is for children or people that have nothing better to do with their time. If you think this way, that is fine because not everyone will like watching or making prank videos either. Not everyone will like to make prank videos or watching them for that matter. There is nothing wrong with not wanting to be involved with these videos. If you really do like this type of video there is nothing wrong with that either.

Those that like to make the prank videos that have popped up all over the place are those that really see the value in having them around even if we dont see what the big deal about them is.

Those that have decided that they are going to make these prank videos know that there is not that much that they have to deal with when it comes to rules and limits. There are so many videos that are out there that many people like for so many different reasons that some people cannot understand whatsoever.
