Recently, a Redditor asked, “What's a movie you like that other people may consider stupid or silly? For me, it's this movie called Evolution. It stars David Duchovney, Orlando Jones, Julianne Moore, and Seann William Scott. The three men are hilarious, and there's this fun scene involving Seann in a Mall if you haven't seen it.”
