  1. The Wrong Missy - Funnier than expected!@unbiasedwriter2229d

    Haha, I just love the fact that I often enjoy those movies slaughtered by others. And yes, often I hate those movies praised by the crowds. But, who cares? After all, a movie is about me feeling good and having a good time, isn't it?

    So, I just saw a review in a paper in which they gave The Wrong Missy a 1/6 score. Well, I can understand why some people might end up hating this movie, but I have got to be honest, I laughed way more watching The Wrong Missy than I do watching most other comedies nowadays.

    The Wrong Missy is annoying - but funny

    Lauren Lapkus plays the role as Missy (the wrong one). You might remember her from her role in The Big Bang Theory. There she played a strange girl, but in The Wrong Missy, she plays the role of a totally crazy girl. She seems to have lost her mind, and she has no clue about how to behave among other people. Tim (David Spade) understands this after 1 minute on their first date, and decides never to meet her again. And I understand him. It is hard to actually bear up with Missy. She is crazy, she is tiring, and it is just frustrating to listen to her. But, somehow, I find it to be funny and I laughed a lot just listening to her jokes, and see how she makes Tim go crazy with all her stunts and her behavior.

    Missy and Tim ends up on a business weekend together by a mistake. Tim thought he invited a different Missy (the right one), but instead, he invited the girl from the terrible date. Things don't get better when Missy starts chatting around with all his colleagues, his ex-wife, his boss, and the wife of the boss. But, there is something fun about all of it... at least if you are tired enough or don't get angry because of the stupid humor, but instead, find yourself able to laugh at the utter stupidity of it all.

    Are you able to laugh at the stupidity of Missy?

    That is the question? If you are, then you will probably have a good time streaming The Wrong Missy on Netflix. If you don't (you will find out after 10 minutes), then you better just turn this off. if not, you will get high blood pressure and waste 90 minutes of your precious time on something you will regret.

    But, if I were to rate my experience of The Wrong Missy, the score would be: 7/10

    The score is based on the fact that I enjoyed the movie and laughed a lot. It doesn't make it a classic, nor a great movie... but I had a great time watching it, thus the good rating (compared to all other ratings this movie has received online).


    You can watch The Good Missy on Netflix everywhere (no need to change your Netflix country. That is good news, isn't it?

  2. The Wrong Missy (film): Sandler throws some money to the boys again@gooddream2232d

    I admire Adam Sandler's dedication to his pals: A couple of times a year he gets the gang together than would likely exerience difficulty getting work in Hollywood without his assistance and throws together some garbage movie so everyone can get paid. If it weren't for Adam, i think David Spade, Rob Schneider, Nick

    Swardson, and definitely Jonathan Loughran likely wouldn't be in anything.

    But even though I think it is fantastic that Sandler and his production company Happy Madison are so dedicated to the boys, these films are never good. The Wrong Missy is not an exception to that rule.

    This is a story about Tim Morris (Spade) who goes on a a blind date with a woman named Missy. He is loud, brash, and annoying in his mind and the date is a disaster. While at the airport he runs into a woman that seems to be perfect for him who gives him her number and it turns out her name is also Missy.

    On the way to a work retreat in Hawaii he texts "Missy" to join him on the vacation - she says yes and he is thrilled, only to realize when Missy turns up that he sent the text to "the wrong Missy."

    What follows is 90 minutes of sequences of events that are mostly filled with the usual Sandler juvenile humor with David Spade providing the voice of reason that he has always played ever since his pal Chris Farley was still alive. Don't get think that I am hating on Spade, I actually like him but when the film ends up bringing along the rest of Sandler's crew, it always ends up being the same.

    The most annoying unnecessary addition to the cast is, as it usually ends up being, the talentless Rob Schneider who one again plays a bit role as a native with a stupid fake accent. Thankfully, he isn't in very much of the film and once again, his character has nothing at all to do with the overall story.

    I suppose the one ray of light in this film is Lauren Lapkus who plays the wrong Missy. She is painstakingly irritating just as she was meant to portray. Her on screen performance is difficult to watch and she is extra cringe - but that was exactly what she was supposed to do.

    In the end this is a love story whose end result is something we are able to determine about 15 minutes into the film and it follows exactly that path. This movie has been done several times before and I thought the only time the premise actually worked was when it was called Forgetting Sarah Marshall

    It took me two sittings to get through this film and I would be surprised if most people even bother to try to get to the end of it. I feel bad saying this about David Spade because I really like him and he was one of my all time favorite characters on Saturday Night Live, but this movie is not good and even the exotic surroundings and brilliant performance by Lauren Lapkus can't compensate for that.

    My overall rating 3 / 10
