Good premise poor execution

In a mother's (Swoose Kurtz) attempt to keep her little boy Jimmy (Jake Gyllenhaal), she convinces him that he needs to live in a bubble to protect him from germs, and "little girls". Well, it was inevitable that he should grow up. His favorite girl Chloe (Marley Shelton) is running off with another man and this will burst Jimmy's bubble.Slapstick's moronic attempts at humor mask this hero's journey through space-time. He learns more about himself as he encounters many new religions and cultures. All encounters are intertwined with each other in some fashion and there are no loose ends. It fits the formula well with a timeline and a direction to a goal that not even the hero is aware of.

Strange... yet enjoyable

You'll watch this and feel like you've seen it before.Jake Gylenhaal in a goofy, funnier role.This has all the typical silly gags of this era yet still has some wholesomeness to it.This was my first introduction to Beetlejuice, who I found terrifying back then but the more I looked int, is actually hilarious.This is a fun, dumb, flick.I can understand why people hate it as comedy as always been a hard one to master.It's either too juvenile or too serious.This falls into the juvenile category but may still get some laughs.Worth the watch if you're sick of the seriousness of the world and need an easy laugh.
