This is Norbit, Soul Plane, and The Cookout in a bucket, thrown up on.
There is no reason to make such a movie. It will win no awards and it's
only purpose is to fill the 7 dollar DVD bin at Wal-Mart. Why not do
something productive, like making good movies? I wonder when it will
stop. I hope someday that the culture it represents will die out. Bring
a bunch of black actors...

"Dr. Dolittle 2" is pretty much what you would expect out of a family
comedy, only a tad more crude. We could've done with maybe one less gag
about animal urination. The plot is a pious, predictable one involving the
preservation of an endangered species of bears. You know, one of those
storylines that's supposed to deliver a "message" to all the young ones out
there.Like us...

It's been done before in "Friday", and "Up in Smoke." There's no great plot
line. There's no moral plea. There's no character development, cool
graphics, intense cinematography or internal conflict. And yet. This movie defies all the rules of story writing and film making. The
absolute preposterousness of the storyline alone is intellectually
offensive. And yet.It was hilarious. F...

In the 60's, Alan Quimp (Douglas McGrath) is a school teacher of English
grammar and married with the very demanding woman Daisy Quimp (Sigourney
Weaver). In order to avoid the constant mockery in Daisy's family, Alan says
that he is a secret CIA agent. Daisy tells everybody, the CIA acknowledges
the lie, but due to a coincidence, Alan has just helped and hidden the

Wow, there are lots of name actors are either in front of the camera or
being used as voices in this unique animated-real life film. They use
real people and animals (except for fake mouths when the animals
"talk") and an animated mouse (Stuart, voiced by animation favorite
Michael J. Fox.) who looks incredibly life-like.The colors in this movie are terrific, especially with the ho...

If someone were to ask what Ravenous is all about, the easiest thing to say
would be: `It's about cannibalism in a remote Army outpost in the 1800s.'
That's exactly right, and that's probably what kept audience members away
from Ravenous when it briefly ran in theaters back in 1999. Cannibalism?
Who needs to watch that? Indeed.Yes, there is cannibalism in Ravenous. Quite a lot o...

The movie, Sleepy Hollow, embodies Tim Burton's unique take on one of
the most well-known horror tales of all time, with a few new plot
twists and greater character development, including a dark past for
Ichabod Crane and a "story behind the story" of what's going on in the
haunted town, which is beautifully rendered, dark and foggy for an
eerie atmosphere.The dream cas...

I hear that ED WOOD took just $6,000,000 on its initial cinematic release in
the USA. I'm not surprised. The extraordinary thing is that the film was
financed and released at all. Had it not been for the prestige that Tim
Burton had already earned from his previous projects, ED WOOD would no doubt
have foundered long before the cameras began to roll. The result could have

'Red October' did for modern submarine warfare what 'Das Boot' did for WWII.
It took a concept that is inconceivable to most people (living in a boat
underwater with people trying to blow you up) and brought it up close and
personal. The resulting suspense and excitement for this type of film is
always extremely entertaining and this film delivers nicely.Tom Clancy's thrilling no...

One of my favorite comedies, Who's Harry Crumb is the story of a bumbling
private detective played by John Candy, who uses a number of disguises
throughout the film. Jeffrey Jones is excellent as Elliot Dreisen. A
relatively clean movie, the comedy revolves around Harry and his
earnestness
and naivete you could say. A lot of viewers will laugh at Harry, but I

I liked this better than Dangerous Liaisons which came out at about the same
time. Of course Dangerous Liaisons was very good, and John Malkovich, who
played Vicomte de Valmont, is an actor of power, and Glenn Close, who played
the Marquise de Merteuil, is highly accomplished, but I preferred the charm
of Colin Firth in this film to the brutality of Malkovich, and I thought

It may take two or three viewings to warm up to "Beetlejuice". It has a
kooky, cockeyed sensibility and a rhythm that is by turns easy, lazy

horrendous new tenants. Possibly the most benign and engaging

Before all the slapstick, before re-writing "Home Alone" umpteen times

believed to be THE scribe for teen angst. He wrote eloquently of it in "Sixteen Candles", "The Breakfast Club"

person and a time in life that just about anyone who...

Considered one of the most notorious box-office flops in history (next to

Transylvania 6-5000 is the movie that my siblings and I make inside
jokes about and no one ever gets them. This movie is funny. The person
that wrote the highly retentive review above is lacking a significant

immaturity. OK, his mother may be really proud of him. However, the

OH! This movie is WONDERFUL, this movie is BEAUTIFUL! I just love it,
and not because of my fixation on Mozart, but because it is a beautifully
made, completely moving work of art.What many people do not seem to understand is that the film is

biography
about the composer. It is about Salieri's madnes...
