Surprise surprise an actually decent Katherine Heigl comedy

"Katherine Heigl Hates Balls" is a 3-minute live action mockumentary short film from 2011 and it is a Funnyordie production, one of their most known, not because it was written and directed by Alex Fernie, but because it stars famous Hollywood actress Katherine Heigl and honestly, I am not a fan of her at all in general and I do believe that she is not very talented, has little range and should not have lead actress status as she does, or well, as she did I should say perhaps. In this pretty short film, she is okay though: FoD once again knows no taboos and we have Heigl elaborate conveniently on why she hates men's testicles. Nope she is not talking about tennis balls or basketballs, but nuts. Indeed! The moment she cuts off this basketball net is actually pretty painful to watch for every man, not just the model type guy you see during this sequence. But it can be solid fun for women too and I was eventually surprised by how much I liked this one. It definitely had enough funny moments for such a short film to let me recommend checking it out. It does not make me see Heigl in a more positive light to be honest, for that it is just too irrelevant and not good enough, but it shows that Heigl and Funnyordie despite all their failure films can also deliver quality with the right material amd people in charge. It's a thumbs-up. Go watch it.
