MOVIE REVIEWS

With busy class schedules, homework, group meetings, and everything else that goes into getting a Pepperdine MBA, who has time to go see movies? That’s right, nobody! Fly On The Wall is no exception, but decided to try writing some movie reviews anyway!

Instead of actually seeing the movie, we figured it’d be more fun to try something different. We dug through our OB toolbox and decided to look through the ‘lens’ (Hey, remember that one?) of an MBA student who only had the title of the film to go by.

Let’s see how we did!

Rambo: Post heroic leadership once again prevails over the rigid and corrupt institutional organization known as the Burmese Army.

27 Dresses: A triumph of Capitalism and consumer choice (27 Dresses!) ruined by an egregious example of materialistic behavior run amuck. (27 Dresses??? Come on! What is she going to do with all of them?)

No Country For Old Men: An examination of the US Social Security system and poor retirement planning.

Meet The Spartans: People used to getting by with less. Probably the product of a planned market economy.

Cloverfield: A little rezoning, and it’ll be a shopping mall.

See you at the movies!
