The Best Troglodyte Film I've Ever Seen

+ I love you people

A troglodyte film can be defined as an adolescent parody in which the principals are obsessed with raunchiness, gross-out humor, sexual stereotypes, and libidinous frustration. Given the limitations and triteness of this film genre, made infamous by Porkies and other such trog films, I came into ...

A Perfect Comedy!!!

Will Ferrell and Jon Heder are awesome together! This is an extremely funny movie! Jimmy MacElroy and Chazz Michael Michaels are skaters who tie for the gold.

AWESOME

Great service!

+ i am legend
+ Post-Apocalyptic Horror/Drama With A Spiritual Edge

I ordered the movie as a Christmas present, and it came very quickly. There was no delay, and the seller kept in touch until the product was delivered. We have not watched the movie yet as it is for Christmas, but I have not doubt of the quality given the service thus far.

The Ten61 reviews
Jessica Alba, Oliver Platt

City Lights, 2008

This is the funniest movie I've ever seen.

If you don't think the Ten Commandments could be funny, turn away now. If you think they could, pull up a chair. If you like the hilarious comedy of writer-director David Wain (like the tragically short-lived Stella on Comedy Central), you will most likely laugh till you cry. With an amazingly ...
  
  











  



  
Day Night Day Night6 reviews
Luisa Williams, Josh Phillip Weinstein

Ifc, 2007

This is probably a love it or hate it film

+ an astonishing work of art
+ A Portrait in Hopelessness

"Day Night Day Night" seems the sort of movie that will polarize viewers. Some will love it while others will find it unbearable. I'm in the former group. The plot, alas, has been inaccurately described here by another viewer. Unfortunately, I cannot correct the error since doing so would reveal a ...

Things We Lost in the Fire40 reviews
Halle Berry, Benicio Del Toro

Dreamworks Video, 2008

'Lost' Under the Radar

+ Buckle up
+ Sad but so true

"Accept the good." Three words never meant so much after the loss, despair and redemption the characters in "Things We Lost in the Fire" experience. The plot is simple, straight-forward, and broken into pieces with glimpses of the past. Though seemingly episodic, the actors elevate the material to ...
