Chilly Dogs

Amazon.com

The lovely snowy expanses of Alaska are the setting for Chilly Dogs, a goofy comedy about a travel agency clerk (Skeet Ulrich, Scream, The Newton Boys) from Los Angeles who has to prove his mettle by racing a team of mismatched sled dogs from Anchorage to Nome. Only this will allow him to claim his grandfather's inheritance--and a wily lawyer (Leslie Nielsen, mugging shamelessly as usual) intends to claim that inheritance for himself by knocking the clerk out of the race. It's not surprising to see Ulrich in a movie full of clumsy, half-baked slapstick and bodily function humor, but why is Natasha Henstridge (Species, The Whole Nine Yards) thrown away as a bland romantic foil? Her intelligence and sexy/tough persona deserve better--she provides Chilly Dogs with what little momentum it has. Also featuring Rik Mayall (The Young Ones). --Bret Fetzer

Not very good.......2006-08-02

I bought this movie thinking it might be slightly entertaining, unfortunately I was wrong, very wrong. This has to be one of the stupidest movies I have seen in a long time, the parts of the movie that were meant to be funny were boring and just ridiculous.I would NOT recommend this movie, you would be better off doing something more useful with your time. I have seen Ulrich,Nielsen & Henstridge in much better moves than this.

Chilly Dogs is a fun movie.......2004-08-03

OK -- so its not going to win an oscar. Its corney, predictable and the effects are low tech. In spite of all that I like it. The actors are good (considering the script), the sound track is very good (though you won't find any chartbusters on it)and there is a load of subtle as well as in-your-face slap stick comedy. Seeing it once will not be enough to pick up on all the little touches in this movie. Overall its a great movie when you want something relaxing, simple and funny.

OH LESLIE WHERE ART THOU?.......2004-05-22

Leslie Nielsen is finally in a film that didn't make me laugh much. That's saying a lot for this talented gentleman who gave us so many laughs in THE NAKED GUN movies. But this lame effort from director Rob Spiers is so painfully strained for jokes that when a potential funny one comes along, you've already expected it. Skeet Ulrich looks like he's sleepwalking through the whole movie; Natasha Henstridge looks embarrassed, and Lochlyn Munro looks constipated. There are few funny moments in this film, and it's a shame Leslie is reduced to such a humorless performance.

Why Bother.......2004-04-17

This Movie is tittled Kevin Of The North, in Australia. And I have had trouble finding it to give this reveiw. This is a great example of how bad a movie can be, and this is the only reason why I would recomend that you see this movie. Not even lesie nelson fans could enjoy this movie. The story line is bad so is the so called "humour". The acting is terible. 3-7 year old kids may find some of the jokes amusing, but I didnt laugh once. It was almost embarising to watch the bad jokes. I would highly recomend that Nobody Buys this Movie, and that if you must see this movie (you should see it, just to see a realy bad movie) rent it. This sort of movie writing/acting should not be encoraged.

Tokyo Revelation

ASIN: B00007KK3I
Release Date: 2003-01-28

Amazon.com

This cheesy sci-fi adventure began as a radio play, and it still feels like one, as there's lots of voice-over juxtaposed with still, often monochromatic artwork. A member of the Bounty Dog Investigation Team, Yoshioki has been sent to discover the source of mysterious activities on the moon. He's drawn into a baroque story that requires him to destroy the alien Sleeper, whom various characters describe with straight faces as "the Dark Side of the Moon." This evil entity is linked to Yoshioki's tragic past and to the revelation that the moon is an artificial observation satellite. The endless chases, explosions, and gunfights can't disguise the painfully underdeveloped plot. In the epilogue, Yoshioki returns to Earth, wondering who built the moon, the nature of the enemy he defeated, etc.--questions the viewer and, apparently, the writers share. (Rated 17 and older: profanity, nudity, grotesque imagery, graphic violence, violence against women) --Charles Solomon

Yawnnnnnnnnnnn.......2003-06-28

What the heck is this movie about. The plot was confusing so I cant really say too much about it. The animation was fairly good. The movie went to fast, not letting events sink in but instead one after another (headach). The beginning was a bore, actually the whole movie was. I didnt really even pay attention to it having it play on my comp. while I watched TV (thts how bad it was) Its one of those movies that if someone died you'de laugh. The music for the credits was cool though I had to admit (some techno Japanese music) when watching this movie all I really thought was random characters, moon, girl with big yellow hair, another girl with big yellow hair....ahhhhhh clones (plot twist......interesting?) nothing sketchy in the movie, one nudity scene, nothing to get your hopes up (not that you would be seeing this movie for tht ) This movie just was boring. Im not going to go into the movies plot because there wasnt really one plus if there was it would be hard to understand really! I would save your money on this one and buy some other anime (yea I kno helpful) just not this!

TOP FANTASY ANIME.......2003-03-15

This movie has action,romance,heartbreak and fantasy
I highly recommend this movie

Anime's answer to Total Recall.......2003-02-13

In the not to distant future, mankind colonizes the moon. However, one of the main companies behind the huge domed cities on the moon's surface appears to be planning on using some alien technology they've found to create a new weapon. A group of special infiltrators called Bounty Dogs come from Earth to investigate. One of them keeps having flashbacks about his sister dying, and is somehow linked to a bunch of evil little girl clones of her. What proceeds is a series of kickass car chases similar to BUBBLEGUM CRISIS, and action sequences with mechas designed by GHOST IN THE SHELL's Masamune Shirow. This isn't exactly the greatest 2-episode OVA ever made, but it is pretty up there if your a fan of action sci-fi. If you liked the manga SERAPHIC FEATHER, then this is right up your alley.

Not bad, could have been a lot better........2000-06-21

The movie was pretty good. It takes a while for the action to start, and when it does it doesn't last long. Although this was a good movie overall, I expected more from Manga.

Its good although only 60mins long.......2000-06-11

Directed by Hiroshi Negishi. The story goes like this: In the future mankind has colonized the moon. Cities and all that. But there are forces that have nothing but hatred for the men and women who have transformed the face of the moon and dont want mankind to succeed. Strange waves of energy come from the dark side of the moon where a centuries old alien (the sleeper) waits for the day it will arise to spread distruction. The bounty arrive on the moon to investigate and find themselves caught in a desperate attempt to destroy "the sleeper" before it awakes and obliterates all mankind on the moon - and earth........I'd recommend it to anyone who enjoys sci-fi anime.
