i saw the stranger with candy movie yesterday at a free screening . i be a huge fan of the show ( i own all 3 season on dvd ) and i couldn not believe my luck at have be give a pas . for the most part and t. v. show do not translate well on the big screen and it pain me to say that stranger with candy the movie be no exception to this rule . basically and the film be a re hashing of the same gag and joke true fan know and love ( and will unmistakably remember ) from the t. v. show . this lame regurgitation simply do not work and and it be evident through the acting that the actor themselves felt uncomfortable recite the same material . a side note represent at the risk of sound like a total obsessive nerd and the equivalent of swc trekkie . why the hell do they change derrick . and the flatpoint campus ( not to mention it new location directly across from the blank residence . ) and this megawatti person be such a lame substitution for orlando . this be not to say that the film do not have it funny moment it do have it fair share . the opening prison montage be especially funny and memorable . stephen colbert be hilarious in every scene and and amy deliver a usual .
