Movie Review - Envy (2/5)

Written on 9:06 a.m. by My gratitude journal

This movie features Ben Stiller, Jack Black and Christopher Walken. It's a comedy about 2 neighbours who are also best friends and one becomes billionnaire over night, making the other one feel miserable. The acting is very good, but overall, the movie is not great... The humour is light and not as good as Meet the Parents or Shallow Hal. I wouldn't pay to see it. And I certainly wouldn't cancel any plans to watch it either. But it was entertaining on a snowy day.

Trivia fact:

At the 2004 Cannes Film Festival, during a press conference for Shark Tale (2004), both Jack Black and Dreamworks' Jeffrey Katzenberg publicly apologized for Envy (2004).
