If you’ve seen Burying the Ex Cast as Luke Wilson/Omana Prediction,” and Lawrence Zach C, Thoburn J, Kreh Zima with Uma Thurman comedia My Super Ex-Girlfried – In, of course, that is perfect. In other words, the only difference here is that the psycho ex is not a super heroine but instead is a Zombie.
Max (Anton Yelchin) is involved with the beautiful Evelyn (Twilight’s Ahsley Green), a relationship that is not so easy. Max takes quite a long time—too long—to whittle down that it is not her—the one and that includes a whole 20 minutes of prologue building Evelyn’s background as a tortured emotionally drained out of a witch vegan environmentalist. She’s one of those vegans who won’t allow him to have any kind of meat or even dairy. She didn’t like what kind of car he drove, so she made him sell it and only then did he have to go to work on a child’s scooter. She finds his job stupid, despises his home décor, etc. The only factors which keep pulling Max back to her are A) she’s too damn gorgeous and B) he cannot summon enough guts to cut ties with her so as not to hurt her feelings. They were destined to be together, but through circumstances they were involved behind an accident so Max is now able to go after Olivia (Alexandra Daddario from True Detective and San Andreas) who is much better for him. Understandably, like Evelyn, Olivia is also quite stunning and she too is madly in love with spineless Max who has ended up at a useless job. As for the most unrealistic part of the movie, this tops that magic amulet that brings Evelyn back from the dead.
A long time back, Joe Dante enjoyed celebrity status in the ranks of the genre directors. The Burbs is still one of the films that I enjoy to this day. Here, however, as in 2009’s The Hole, he shows he’s well past his cinematic prime. Burying the Ex, on the other hand, tries to be hip and breezy, featuring clever cinematography and an enjoyable score, but it has the same poignancy as Evelyn. It just sort of meanders from one contrived plot development to the next and at one point tries – and fails – to carry out a farce in which Max tries to handle two women at the same time, with both of them completely unaware of each other. One woman is very nasty and a zombie. Okay. But the other one is ideal, loves the same movie genre as Max and is uncritical of all his shortcomings. Still, for some reason, she chases him blindly regardless of all the warning signs even though he has never considered confiding the truth to her. Daddario gives Olivia much more personality than what is written, but it is clear that her only purpose is as the dreamgirl safety net for Max, and nothing more. Certainly waiting for her to arrive a bit later would have been more interesting.
It is clear that there are cultural elements related to women that need to be put into more modern contexts, and that this is one of them perhaps.
In Conclusion
Penny’s character along with the superficial and rather over-the-top cinematic perspective of the motion picture emerged to shield most of its vulgarity within thinly layers. It does have some modest mirth but is far behind many current horror comedy films.
Apart from how old (and misogynistic) that the theme of a dependence and desperation to find the man, that would all work in a better movie. It is in his views that men become extreme in avoiding being in a bad romantic relationship with a woman which in most cases is a marriage. But Burying the Ex isn’t one bit of what you will expect for. And it also is not very humorous, hot Zach’s half-brother (Oliver Cooper) provides a few chuckles playing the stereotypical fat friend of steve that always garbs overweight people.
Director Joe Dante (Gremlins, The Howling, Small Soldiers) tries to be clever but ends up unsuccessfully trying to work with the hip but rewritten book by Alan Trezza. Perhaps the problem lies with the later extensions of the derivation, let us say Burying the Ex, unsurprisingly, is devoid of believable details. Let’s not talk about how model-level girls didn’t just approach but rather chased after Max and his fat classroom brother demanding to sleep with them. Even the character’s private life is very caricature and poorly conceived. Max aims to open a Halloween shop which is a great idea…….for cops or retail employees who only know how to work a month a year. Evelyn works in a typical office with a straightforward desk job as an environmentalist while regularly “blogging”: “be there in a minute just finishing this blog!!” Such jobs strolling across the readers imagination do not feel realistic to any normal person who has done blue collar work.
