Because you need to watch more Simon Pegg movies!
This was not one of Simon Pegg's better movies, but it was still a decent feel-good movie. It was released simultaneously on DVD, Blu-Ray and HD-DVD so I'd recommend a rental.
References to weight lifting, running, upscale gyms, spinning classes, marathon training, etc. I think will be better appreciated by the Traineo crowd! My only lament was that they didn't have more of India de Beaufort in the movie. I was coloring my Spongebob Squarepants book with crayons while watching, naturally, and now have hot wax burns -- she is so
thermically endowed! Hank Azaria is incredibly buff, but I knew that from his appearance in
The Birdcage (remake of
La Cage Au Folles). I wonder what NY gym he goes to?
Afterwards, watch
Shaun of the Dead and
Hot Fuzz as well, especially the latter. Simon Pegg is at his best!
