Melinda and Melinda



I wasn't expecting anything when I was watching this movie. It's a little confusing because you have to keep track of 2 stories with pretty much the same main character, Melinda.

It had it's moments of comedy but the movie itself was more astonishing than comedic. Just listening to the BS that comes out of their mouths was just so... entertaining.

Basically, you have 4 creative people who are either trying to discuss how they are going to make a movie. And since there's 2 people with really strong opinions, they ask kinda tell their story and the 2 other people add pointers here and there. Now, it's not a narrated movie or anything, rather, you see both "though up" movies side by side as the scene changes and you just have to keep track of which Melinda they are talking about.

It's very interesting!! Will Ferrell is pretty cool as well. It's a more serious role for him rather than his usual comedic routine. Radha Mitchell was fantastic as she played 2 completely different roles in the one movie.

It's definitely worth checking out!
