The key to understanding this complex set of factors is by close observation of one’s nonverbal cues and by delving a little deeper into their lives.Įxpect a short read that will leave you richer in knowledge in just over a few hours. Also, there are reasons why people act in a certain manner or exhibit definite personality traits. To most of us, this difference is not easily discernible, but there are many ways to understand people better. There is a huge difference between what people say, what people think, and how people act. This displays us in the best possible light-giving, kind, confident, secure, and humble.” The fear that the world is going to find us out leads us to adorn a mask. “Most of us wear a mask, a social mask to hide who we really are and what we’re feeling, to protect ourselves, to avoid conflicts, or to masquerade a personality trait that wouldn’t otherwise be appreciated or accepted. Rating: R for pervasive language, graphic nudity, drug use, sexual content and violence.SUBJECT: 4/5 RELEVANCE: 4/5 INSIGHTS: 3.5/5 OVERALL: 3.5/5 “Observe and Report” isn't cutting edge or daring - it's just plain bad.Ĭast: Seth Rogen, Anna Faris, Ray Liotta, Celia Weston Thanks to Apatow, blunt and raunchy comedy is all the rage, but the material forced down our throats here - including but not limited to date rape, vomit kisses, ethnic slurs, sociopathic violence and gag-inducing full-frontal male nudity - pushes the wrong kind of envelope. When someone with as little acting chops as Rogen tries to pull it off, it's embarrassing. This might have been a fun, outrageous little comedy had Hill not tried to evoke the spirit of Travis Bickle (“Taxi Driver”) and Rupert Pupkin (“The King of Comedy”), two pitch-black characters indelibly stamped on our cinematic subconscious by Robert De Niro. If he were a better actor, he might earn kudos for slipping into darkness, but his character is both poorly written and shoddily performed. I usually find Rogen to be a likable lug, best known from his Judd Apatow crowd-pleasers, “The 40-Year-Old Virgin” and “Knocked Up.” This time out, he's rather repulsive. If I were Rogen, one of the screen's most grossly overexposed comedic actors, I'd lay low for a few years, spend some of my millions and hope like hell everyone forgets this tripe. It worked once, thanks to Danny McBride's understated performance, but it fails miserably here. Hill seems to have a thing for big-headed, small-brained antiheroes blissfully unaware of their personal shortcomings. This is the second feature from writer-director Jody Hill, whose 2006 debut, “The Foot Fist Way,” was a low-key comic success. The sole bright spot in Ronnie's life - though he's far too blind to see - is Nell (Collette Wolfe), a new girl at the mall food court who encourages him to just be himself. Veteran actress Celia Weston appears as Ronnie's dysfunctional, alcoholic mom, who passes out nightly on the living room floor and openly blames Ronnie for driving his father away. Determined to prove his worth, Ronnie applies to become a real police officer and finally corners Brandi into a date, both affairs meeting with disastrous results.

The crime prompts a visit from local police Detective Harrison (Ray Liotta), whose presence threatens Ronnie's authority and triggers his deeply seeded inferiority complex.
