My Grading System

A+ = Masterpiece (I hold back on this one.) / A = Great. / A- = Really Good. / B+ = Good. / B = Decent (Serviceable). / B- = Flawed but okay (For those times there's something redeeming about the work). / C+ = Not very good (Skip it). C = Bad. / C- = Awful. / F = Complete Disaster (I hold back on this one too).

Note on Spoilers: I will try to avoid ruining a story by going into too much detail. But if I wish to include some revealing points to my analysis I will try to remember to add a separate spoiler paragraph.

Take Me Home Tonight (2010)

With one of the worst titles ever, I didn't expect much from this '80s throwback romantic comedy.  But Topher Grace and company entertain in a decent film about being stuck and not knowing what to do after college.  Sometimes you just have to take chances.  Anna Faris' comic talents are miss used but Dan Fogler is given free reign to exploit his loudness with hilarity.  I'm not sure why it needs to take place in the late eighties it does give the film a peculiar look that goes well with your typical '80s soundtrack.  Maybe if they would have given Faris more to do and thought up a better title this film would be more than the forgetful fun flick it is. Grade: B.
