So I've never posted one of these User Comments, but I had to write
about how much I loved this film. The story centers around the two very
strong characters of Andy (Baruchel) and Reuben (Quaid). The entire
journey kept me captivated from beginning to end (which is no simple
feat after a week of festival fatigue) but nothing prepared me for the
ending. I have to say, witho...

There is one great flaw here that almost everyone mentions... and it's
true. The accents of the non-Spanish actors clash terribly with the
Spanish ones, as well as with each other. That's a real flaw, but if
you can get past that, there's a great film waiting to be seen. I found
I forgot all about it after the first 10 minutes. The critics just
don't get this fi...

I have seen every movie made about Elvis with the exception of a
regional drive-in movie that was fictitious called "The Legend" I
believe, and not since Kurt Russell's phenomenal impersonation in the
1970s TV Movie have I seen such an amazing job of acting as done by
this young kid from Ireland. Jonathan Rhys-Meyers was so stunningly
accurate even though the combed back hair m...

It was a real ordeal to get into the screening. The anticipation was
palpable. The film arrived surrounded by a plethora of innuendo. "A gay
western" "Heath and Jake's hot scenes" As soon as the film started
every imaginable preconception flew out of the auditorium. This is a
remarkable, moving and powerful love story. The setting is that of a
modern western "The Last Picture S...

This is just another example of the continuing downward spiral of Eddie
Murphy's once exciting career. Murphy will always have scripts handed to him
and he'll always be working in films but the once edgy comedian has lost his
edge a long time ago. This story takes place in the future where Earth has
populated the Moon and a former smuggler named Pluto Nash (Murphy) takes

It's not as bad as some people say. Some of the jokes are worth a
chuckle. The acting isn't spectacular but not terrible. Although they
could have done a better performance. I think they should have gotten
Elizabeth Hurley to play Kirstie Alley's role. She wasn't very
convincing as a British sex bomb. You could kinda tell Rodney was

One of the gags in this film involves a Hollywood script screener
rejecting movie scripts because they are "too intelligent" :-) Well,
apparently this movie is too intelligent for most voters are IMDb, as
they have (incorrectly) given this movie a 4.1 rating out of ten!
Obviously, they are not "getting" the Hollywood "inside jokes' and

I've read many comments about the Vacation movies. Most people give the
original "Vacation" high marks, but trash the others. I think a lot of
people just like to be pick on Chevy Chase. "Vacation" is the best, but
I liked the sequels and "Vegas Vacation" is my favorite of them. My

Before "There's Something About Mary" or "Me myself and Irene" there
was Kingpin. Kingpin is a comedic masterpiece-not many comedies make me
laugh out loud like this one. If the Farrellys were not attached this
movie wouldn't be half as great as it was (This film was originally
written by Barry Fanaro, and Mort Nathan) Roy Munson was a bowling
champion in the late 1970s. Roy re...

I am just shocked at all the negative reviews by pseudo-intellectuals saying
the film was heavily flawed, incomprehensible, devoid of any merit, and
"lame", to quote a few. What were they expecting? A remake of 2001: A
Space Odyssey. Sure, I am not going to pretend the film does not has many
glaring weaknesses. The plot is hardly original; its execution is even less

I feel priveleged to have this obscure gem in my collection. A scant
cruise through my grocery store video rental some six years ago had me rent
two films (both with the Melissa Joan Hart-like Megan Ward, oddly enough):
"PCU" and "Freaked". I enjoyed PCU, but was taken aback by the colorful
crudeness of Freaked. From the opening ClayMation/Henry Rollins fusion to

Gun.

performance) and a surprising Randy Quaid, Days of Thunder becomes...

I've seen this movie a few times, and I always get some good laughs out of
it. It's not a genuinely hilarious comedy, yet it earns its laughs
honestly, unlike most of the silly fluff that comes out recently. Bill
Murray is in top form. Randy Quaid steals some scenes, and Geena Davis and
Jason Robards top off a fine supporting cast. I liked the way the movie

My Christmas is filled with ritual, as I guess most people's are. Part of
that ritual is National Lampoon's Christmas Vacation, about which I have
nothing but good things to say. This should be part of your Holiday season

as
a whole is just so thoroughly festive, cheery and good-hearted.It opens with a gr...

Just a few points on this movie as it happens to be one of my all time
favourites (thank you Mr Balaban and Mr Hawthorne).There is an aspect to childhood that is too often (and in the case of
Hollywood almost always) forgotten and that is the dark side. The world
for
a child does not always appear as a bright, shining place of wonder and
joy;
more often than not the world ...

This film is nearly 20 years old, but still rates as one of the best
movies I've ever seen.Following the title sequence which sets the violent scene of car crime
which forms the backdrop for this film, Peter Werner opens the film
with a fairly protracted scene featuring the central character
(22-year-old rookie cop, Benjy) in his home environment. This marks the

One of my all-time favourites. A nice idea in the spirit of "The Car" or
"Christine" with great action (mostly of well-show car chases in Tucson,
Arizona). The characters were well constructed and (on the whole) well
implemented by the actors, with Nick Cassavetes stealing the show as
nutter,
Packard Walsh.It also launched the careers of Charlie Sheen and Sherilyn Fenn (Fenn's<...

more it gets cut on TV.Now, for the first time (thanks to DVD), I have been able to watch it in its
original language. And it was just awesome!

I must admit, after watching this for the first time, I had this feeling of
contempt for Turks which lasted for a few months. I then decided to do some
research into the real Billy Hayes' ordeal and found that, not surprising,
most of the movie is full of exaggerations. Yet, I always find myself
watching it again and again. Why? Because I admire at its effectiveness in

At its base, Bound for Glory is just a simple biopic about Woody Guthrie. In
execution, it turns out to be a lot more. We actually learn very little
about Woody Guthrie's life. I don't know the exact statistic, but I would

us briefly of his death. And basically all of the experiences shown onscreen

One of my favorite films is The Last Picture Show. It is a film that was
directed by Peter Bogdanovitch in 1971, yet almost 30 years later it still
seems fresh and alive to me. There is a desolate, spare quality to the
1950's small west Texas town we are invited into and its desolation is
apparent to us from the opening scenes. It was filmed in black and white,
