First however, he has one more mission to complete: Gain the approval of Gillian’s children. Bob volunteers to baby-sit when Gillian is called away, but the operation hits a snag when one of the kids mistakenly downloads a top-secret formula, and Anton Poldark, a Russian terrorist (Magnus Scheving) takes aim at Bob’s prospective family.
Review
This film sucks. I can remember a lot from it and have no idea why I liked it.
Firstly, the kids in this movie hate Bob Ho for no reason. Sure he isn’t your father, but do you have to make life hard for him? That just triggered me. I always hated seeing the hero hated.
Secondly, the fight scenes in the movie are bombared by childish sound effects that are supposed to be funny. I guess when you’re seven it is, but I’m mature and don’t laugh at it at all.
Thirdly, it’s a Halloween film. My religion and country prohibit Halloween, but what sucks is that the film doesn’t even foreshadow it being October. Once I saw everyone in costumes and trick-or-treating, I was like- ‘Huh? It’s Halloween?’
Lastly – about 20 or 35 minutes worth of this 94 minute film are actually funny and possible to laugh at. The other are not.
The only thing that makes it good is Jackie Chan’s charm and Magnus Scheving’s performance. Not to mention the ending credits, which have bloopers funnier then the film.
But when you think of it as a film to have a good time with and not take too seriously, you can find it pretty good, if you have a mental illness.
Magnus Scheving’s website from 2009
In January 2009, Magnus crafted his very own personal place on the net. The link was www.magnusscheving.is. And the site isn’t up anymore since March 2011. Did you visit this website before? Have a wave of nostalgia if you did. The site featured images and videos of Scheving and also some ways to contact him. Anything a Maggi S. fan like me could wish for.
Here is an archived version of the website from 2011: https://theoldnet.com/get?url=www.magnusscheving.is%2F&year=2010&scripts=false&decode=false
You could also comment on the blog posts, and luckily if you frequently posted there and were a big fan of LazyTown like Ana Gonzales Muriel (she commented a lot on Maggi’s posts back then), you could also get a reply from Magnus Scheving himself.
There were 4 YouTube videos of Magnus on the site, and all of them are still up and running as of January 24, 2023! Can you believe it?! I sure couldn’t.
What’s funny is that none of these videos were uploaded by Magnus himself.
Anyways, the image page is empty and has no pictures of him unfortunately.
At the bottom of the page was of course, a link to LazyTown.com back in 2011.
Anyways, thanks for reading! See ya later!
