at least it's short
Epic Movie is a spoof movie. Like Scary Movie (which I've seen) or Date Movie (which I haven't). It contains send-ups, with look-alike actors, of movies as diverse as Snakes on a Plane and Chronicles of Narnia, as well as Nacho Libre, Pirates of the Caribbean, The DaVinci Code, X-Men, etc., etc. It was fun identifying the movies being spoofed, and, as with all satire, laughing at things that ...

Walking Around the Edge of the Real
Elena...is a traveler we first see swimming on a magic-infused night in the moonlit shallows of a remote island. She seeks only a wild erotic encounter with another naked traveler (Lorenzo). The stranger doesn't want to know her name nor she his; its a purely erotic surrender to the power of fantasy uncomplicated by anything real. Both agree that it is the most intense sex they have ever had. ...

Excellent series
This is an excellent series. It is unfortunate that Cartoon Network decided to let it drop. My 10 year old son enjoys all 4 volumes.

Danger Never Looked So Good!
Or plodded along so predictably ... now I'm not trying to say Michelle Pfeiffer isn't convincing as a tough-as-nails, kick your tail instructor, because I don't have to. Anyone with an IQ over 120 will figure that out instantly. Now, we all know that inner-city youths don't deserve as much attention as rich kids, so let's stop pretending that one teacher with a mission is going to make a ...

Long Live Jack Bourdain!
I stumbled upon "Kitchen Confidential" on Hulu.com and I was instantly hooked on the quirky, sexy comedy about Jack Bourdain. Although it is based on Anthony Bourdain, a real-life chef and his debaucheries, "Kitchen Confidential" is not as risque. The characters are so lovable and funny and it made me sad when I had to watch the last episode. Bradley Cooper is an excellent actor and the show's ...

Rosario Flores, Javier Cámara

Sony Pictures, 2003

Talk to Her
A slyly subversive ode to love in all its myriad forms, Almodóvar's "Talk to Her" is an intimate, involving tale that examines the dark and even perverse nature of masculinity with great compassion. As always, Almodóvar coaxes exemplary performances from his actors, especially Grandinetti--whose teary Marco is movingly guilt-ridden about Lydia's injuries--and Camara, playing a naive man whose ...

TWO INSPIRING LESSONS FOR THE PRICE OF ONE!
The two films included on this disc are based on true stories of dedication and determination. These "against the odds" school dramas are very likable with memorable performance by both leads in each film. Both movies are presented in widescreen with very good DVD transfers.

It's a different Friday, Ya'll...
I love this movie! The first Friday was more about a message and life growing up in the ghetto. The last two Friday movies are straight up comedy and will make you laugh til you on tha flo! Day-Day is Craig's loveable idiot cousin and has some of the best lines in the move - and EVERYBODY beats on this guy. If you were looking for more reality like the first Friday, you may be disappointed - ...

The Lessons of Vietnam?
DVD REVIEW I have previously reviewed Stanley Karnow companion book, Vietnam-A History, that goes with this ten-part series. I have reposted that review below for the convenience of the reader. Most of the political points that I have made there apply here as well. I would only add that visually some of the footage brought the message home more clearly that on the printed page and I would ...

Love the movie, even better in blu-ray
I love everything about this movie. Vince Vaughn didn't have a large role but he was funny. Brad and Angelina play well off each other. The blu-ray video and audio quality were reference. The surrounds were used extensively. One of my favorite movies on blu-ray.

Anyone who is a fan would thoroughly enjoy owning any season of Samurai Jack. If you're taking the time to sit and read this about season 3 then you've probably sang the theme song in your head a couple times already......lol. Dang, now it's in my head again. :-) What are you waiting for??? It's a good series. And if you have a good sense of humor a few laughs are in store. Sit back, relax, and ...

SO GOOD, IT'LL MAKE YA' WANTA SLAP YO' MOMMA!
"Tastes so good, it'll make you want to slap your momma"!! This is just one the hilarious quotes from "Friday After Next". This is one seriously funny movie. If you don't just bust-up with laughter, then you are probably already dead. Ice Cube and his buddy Mike Epps deliver one Hell of a good Christmas themed comedy. This time around, Ice Cube plays his role to the max, and manages to showcase ...
