The Chumscrubber


The Chumscrubber stars Jamie Bell, Camilla Belle, and Justin Chatwin. It is the story of a teen (Bell) who discovers the body of his best friend that kills himself. There is another set of teens that try to blackmail him to get the drugs his dead friend owes them, but the plan goes awry.

First of all IMDB labels this movie as a comedy and at no point did I think any of this was funny. Not even in a dark comedy sort of way. It was highly reminiscent of Donnie Darko, but not nearly as good.

I will say that Jamie Bell is hot and he should be in everything. I do realize that he was Billy Elliot, but he is all grown up now so calm down. He is British and I would have had no idea because he dropped his accent perfectly. Dude Jamie Bell can do it, why can't Sam Worthington get it together?

This movie had some truly "WTF" moments, but I think it was in a good way. Glenn Close is also in this movie and she plays a crazy bitch, but when doesn't she play a crazy bitch? I would say that this one was worth watching, but be warned it is long winded and I still don't really know what happened in this movie.


I give this one a 6


What Hari Says...

I know it's been a while since I've watched this one, but I remember that I liked it.  It was good.
I'd give it a 7.  It was way too emotional to watch again, but I liked it.
