The Holiday

Amazon.com

As a pleasant dose of holiday cheer, The Holiday is a lovable love story with all the Christmas trimmings. In the capable hands of writer-director Nancy Meyers (making her first romantic comedy since Something's Gotta Give), it all begins when two successful yet unhappy women connect through a home-swapping website, and decide to trade houses for the Christmas holiday in a mutual effort to forget their man troubles. Iris (Kate Winslet) is a London-based journalist who lives in a picture-postcard cottage in Surrey, and Amanda (Cameron Diaz) owns a movie-trailer production company (leading her to cutely imagine most of her life as a "coming attraction") and lives in a posh mansion in Beverly Hills. Iris is heartbroken from unrequited love with a cad of a colleague (Rufus Sewell), and Amanda has just broken up with her cheating boyfriend (Edward Burns), so their home-swapping offers mutual downtime to reassess their love lives. This being a Nancy Meyers movie (where everything is fabulously decorated and romantic wish-fulfillment is virtually guaranteed), Amanda hooks up with Iris's charming brother Graham (Jude Law), and Iris is unexpectedly smitten with Miles (Jack Black), a super-nice film composer on the downside of a failing relationship. --Jeff Shannon

Wow!.......2007-09-09

Great plot, wonderful actors, and I do hope to see a sequel or something similar. It is defiantly worth keeping!

Holiday ... Celebrate.......2007-08-24

Madonna sang once "holiday, celebrate, if you took a holiday, some time to celebrate, it would be ..it would be so nice." Holiday is more than nice, it is superb romantic comedy, about two modern ladies who do the geographic cure by swapping houses to get over broken hearts.

Iris is a London journalist who is in love with Jasper, a selfish columnist who is engaged but wants to have his cake and eat it too. Amanda is a Hollywood trailer producer who just ended yet another relationship with her cheating semi live-in boyfriend. When the two women connect on a house swap site to get away from it all they find themselves in unexpected romances.

Once they arrive at their polar opposite locations love finds them. Iris connects with film score composer Miles whose as decent as Jasper is awful. Iris also befriends a legendary Hollywood writer named Arthur who tells her to be the leading lady by having her watch movie of strong women characters.

Amanda falls head over heels with Iris' brother Graham whose nursing his own broken heart after being left a widowed single father. As they live two different lives the ladies find parts of themselves that had gone missing a long time ago.

A similar movie with an almost identical plot line is Tara Road starring Andie MacDowell.

Tara Road (2005)

Good movie!.......2007-08-19

I thought this movie was wonderful. Although, I have to mention that it made a bigger impact on me after the second viewing. I thought the 4 main characters played their roles wonderfully. I'd have to say that this movie is now roaming towards the top of my favorite list!

It's like George Lucas directed this skunk........2007-08-15

What can a red-blooded, married American male say about "The Holiday"? What started out as perhaps an interesting plot idea - two people switch houses and find happiness in each other's lives - quickly took a left turn. My wife sticks this thing into the DVD player and about two minutes later I was already beaten down by the corny dialogue and terrible wooden acting. Now, I can appreciate a good chick-flick as much as the next guy. I kinda like "Father of the Bride", "Legally Blonde", even "Sleepless in Seattle". But this thing stinks to high heaven.

Every one of the main actors was as bad as Jake Lloyd in "The Phantom Menace" (Yipee!), and Diaz was especially atrocious. I can only assume that George Lucas had some hand in this, since Winslet, Law, and Black are usually really fun to watch. Maybe they suffer because of the ridonkulous lines they had to deliver. It's like watching a Sweet Valley High book played out on film.

Go spend your money on something better than this. Like a junior-high production of "Death of a Salesman".

Pleasant Surprise!.......2007-08-06

I watched "The Holiday", not expecting much, but I found myself just loving this flick! It was so entertaining that I didn't want it to end. And it's just as good on the second and third viewings. A fun and lighthearted movie with a terrific cast, all!

After making her name in The Princess Diaries, Anne Hathaway takes a radical detour with this edgy independent drama. As Allie, a wealthy gangsta wannabe, she makes no excuses for her delinquent behavior: "We're just teenagers and we're bored." When her Pacific Palisades posse, including pal Emily (Bully's Bijou Phillips), starts hanging out with a Latino gang (including Six Feet Under's Freddy Rodríguez), they learn what thug life is really about. Hathaway couldn't be more game: She swears, she fights--she disrobes (several times). Written and directed by Oscar winners Stephen Gaghan (Traffic) and Barbara Kopple (American Dream), Havoc plays like a B movie, in the vein of the superior crazy/beautiful, and was released straight to video. For Hathaway fans, it's a chance to see this young talent in a very different light, but for Gaghan and Kopple followers, this lurid morality tale is sure to come as a letdown. --Kathleen C. Fennessy

Description

A group of wealthy Los Angeles teenagers try to become part of the "gangsta" lifestyle but soon run into trouble when they come face to face with a real gang of Latino drug dealers.

Accurate but for one fatal flaw.......2007-09-17

This film would like you to think the hip hop, ghetto gang bangers young teenagers are enticed by are beaners. I think most people are going to see through this and laugh their way into turning this DVD into a Frisbee. Having lived in the Hispanic ghetto for seven years, I can tell you white girls do not flock to either the Filipino or Hispanic parties. I think, by process of elimination, you can do the math and figure out which ethnicity I'm talking about. Hint: It's not the Caucasian gangs, either. Clearly this minor (sarcastically rolls eyes) fact was altered to be more politically correct. Personally, I think the hip hop culture needs a swift kick in the bollocks. If done accurately, it would have been a bunch of 11 to 16 year old cute suburban white girls smoking pot and being gang raped (statutory or otherwise) by a bunch of...well, you know where I'm going with this. Before you call me a racist, remember I lived it and you did not, and your emotional response to what I'm saying is the same reason the film makers were compelled to take the "less offensive" route. Apparently they don't think Mexicans feel offense, I guess. The idea that any kind of genuine romance actually blossoms out of this rotten scene is clearly more Hollywood marketing fluff. Reality is far more insane and extreme than this film achieves, but you get a taste for the general behavior, at least. Lastly, I feel sorry for Bijou Phillips constantly being exploited like this. Hopefully she has more talent than this and her career can develop beyond this typecasting.

crash lite.......2007-08-11

just see it for the ladies, because other than that it is like crash. Well wait this came out before Crash so..oh who cares. end result is the gang bangers bump heads with the wanna be gb's and it all goes downhill from there. Bayou Phillips is hot and so is Hathaway if you know what I am talking about so if you are looking for that kind of action it is here. Really now, good acting and neat story. Just that, well kind of not realistic, like the girls trying to get into a gang and stuff. Any teen that does something THAT dumb needs to start over in the first grade or just be admitted into an asylum.

Havoc (Unrated Version)..........2007-08-11

Overall, I found this film, adequate. A few notes:

1. Girls looking for thrills/excitement in East L.A.? I don't think so. Go rolling to East L.A. in a convertible Mercedes or SUV? Can you say car-jack victim? I can...without any bias whatsoever.

2. The initiation scene is somewhat realistic. It has been said that in order for girls to join certain male dominated groups (gangs, etc.), that they must submit themselves to the 'group.' That has been documented in the press...any teenage girls out there? Well, beware!!

3. As a person who has been to Palisades High School in West Los Angeles (yes, folks, Pacific Palisades High School is real, just minutes from the beach!). You do indeed see kids immersed in the hip-hop culture. The difference? Some of these kids' families are very well-off. That part of the movie comes through very well. Families with the kind of money depicted in the film are usually quite busy making money, and not home for their kids...well, you know the rest.

4. Finally, the scene where the Palisades boys go to look for the gang-bangers that ravaged their friend was just unrealistic. These guys would have been seen a mile-off and would have been dealt with accordingly. Strangers in a strange land, would be an adequate description.

Again, I found the movie...adequate, decently acted, but not much more. Rent (or borrow) a copy and judge for yourself. Three stars...

Raw.......2007-07-13

Raw script and raw acting. To watch how teens descend into a path of decadence so easily seems almost surreal. And such a fine line that separates the glamour and bummers in Hollywood.

havoc.......2007-07-07

hi guys the movie havoc i myself liked the movie.i like anne hathaway and to be honest i dont mind her being nude in the movie.but anne can act the movie aint disney but anne is grown up and this is a movie that shows anne as an adult.the movie is gritty,it has drug use violence.and nudity anne can handle adult movies roles. so for the older anne hathaway fans who want to check out the adult anne check out the movie.so if you buy the film purchase the unrated version more bang for you buck plus more anne.duane

This 1986 comedy out of Australia is so old-fashioned in its romantic charm that one can't help but wonder what it would have looked like with Clark Gable and Carole Lombard in the leads. On the other hand, it's hard to imagine anyone besides Paul Hogan as the title character, a laid-back Aussie tracker who shows an American reporter (Linda Kozlowski) around bush country, then accompanies her to New York City. Sure, Hollywood has done the fish-out-of-water scenario to death in the last 20 years, and while this film has sufficient sport with the gimmick, it is largely driven by the principal characters and their developing love affair. Hogan cowrote the script and director Peter Faiman evokes the goofy, enchanted air of screwball comedies. The climactic scene, set in a subway station with scores of bystanders witnessing a conversation about relationship commitment, feels like vintage Capra. --Tom Keogh

~A blast from the Past~.......2007-08-08

I remember watching this movie when it can out in 1986 & loving it! I was so happy when it was released on DVD in 2001. It is such a funny, adventurous & feel good movie. Paul Hogan is so FUNNY & his character is so endearing! You will laugh at his innocence as he leaves the Outback to explore the Big Apple! I L-o-v-e this movie as well as the next 2 installments of Dundee.

Good day mate! .......2007-07-16

Paul Hogan aka Crocodile Dundee enchants the audience with his rugged good lucks and animalistic characteristics- This is the original Croc movie or Crocodile Dundee I where a reporter from New York comes to Australia to write an article on the Outback but ends up getting much more! The infamous seen where the croc jumps out of the swamp and bites her water bottle while Mic Dundee jumps in and saves the day by knifing him between the eyes! Mic then agrees to come back to NYC with her where he gets a taste of city-life or in other words city-life gets a taste of Dundee!!! In the end, the touching bus scene where the report screams out over the crowd that "she's love ya" ends the movie and leads us into the next of three of the Crocodile Dundee trilogy!~

Time For A Reappraisal?.......2007-05-18

This film is not considered 'cool' these days due mainly, I think, to lazy TV schedulers who will run a butchered version of the film on Sunday afternoons because it's a 'good family film'. I've caught this film on TV about four times and on each occasion it was in a badly cut version but this DVD seems, so far as I can tell, to be complete. The film deserves to be put alongside the best comedies of any era and should be regarded as one of the prime examples of the form(I would compare it to Capra at his best).

I was lucky enough to see this film at the cinema, knowing no more about it at the time, than that it was supposed to be a good comedy. Well it turned out to be a very good comedy indeed. The film offers so much more than just some very funny moments though. Everyone I know who saw it at the time loved it and it was no surprise that it became one of the years biggest hits. It is strong in all areas, well written and directed with good chemistry between the leading actors and an excellent cast who all perform their parts to perfection. Hogan stands out of course and had the difficult task of throwing off the tag 'Australia's answer to Benny Hill' something he manages effortlessly.

It's difficult to realise now how much of a 'breath of fresh air' it was at the time since Hollywood immediately co-opted (or stole) so much of the style and approach of the film for its own projects in the following years.

The film quite naturally divides into two parts. The first in Australia
has a surprising depth to it and a real feel for the place(the Outback)and its people and of course you get to know the characters. The second part of the film is in New York and provides the bulk of the humour but still remains character focused and never descends into pointless gag-making.

It manages to be hilariously funny one moment and sweetly touching the next. Put simply the film is a delight and a joy to watch and can be seen many times without tiring of it.

Really good if you are 7 years old and think an Aussie accent is cool.......2007-04-21

Dumb girl is saved from big ol crocodile by wise outback guy who stabs it with big ol knife instead of just leaving it alone. Because girls of course could never survive in the outback. Natives with innate wisdom.

Sheech.

Every cliché in the book. Can't believe any adults swallow this one. It's going to be below the threshold for smart kids, let alone adults.

Better adventure film: Master and Commander

OK the dumbos who disagree can now press the "not helpful" button, and the smart people can, at least, consider what I've written.

That is not a knife... this is a knife..........2007-04-14

There seems to be a recipe for making great movies, and this film has all the ingredients. Adventure, action, romance, and great comedy.

A modern day Tarzan, Crocodile Dundee is simply one of those movies we must see. Paul Hogan is superb as he plays the audacious and brave hero out in the wilderness of Australia. Linda Kozlowski is the reporter who sets out to surface the story of man who was attacked by a crocodile and survived to tell the story.

Mick, as he is known by his friends... and he has many... has never set out foot from his environment. Invited by the reporter, he travels to New York City, where great adventure ensues.

New Yorkers are not ready for someone like Crocodile Dundee, but soon, they find themselves admiring and becoming friends with this simply, kind, respectful, and courageous visitor.

The end of the movie is one of the best scenes, capturing great love, and how, total strangers can become instrumental in bringing a relationship to its climax.

Don't miss this movie and you will find yourself saying... "That is not a knife... this is a knife!"

When it gets exposed to the radiation of the bombing of Hiroshima, the heart grows in size, mutates and sprouts appendages, and eventually grows into a complete body and escapes. Later, a feral boy with a certain physical deformity (a large head with a flat top) is captured by scientists who refer to the boy as Frankenstein. The creature grows to the height of 20 feet, escapes again, fights police and army, and is practically indestructible. Later, a reptilian monster goes on a rampage.

This classic japanese monster movie finally gets a DVD release here in the states and what a treat it is!!

This was always one of my favorite monster movies as a kid, and the new dvd makes it just as cool as it was then. I did not realize it was a two-disc set when I ordered it, so that was a bonus. Anyway, rockin' good movie.

Frankenstein Conquers The World.......2007-07-30

Both versions of this film are good and the alternate ending in Japanese is a real treat and the extra scenes were a surprise. A good CD to have for anyone collecting films from Toho, Godzilla, Rodan, Mothra and the like

NICE TO SEE THIS ON DVD! KEEP THEM COMING!.......2007-06-28

I must admit that I liked these ToHo films as a kid,but they are mostly for laughs now.I guess a little for nostalgia too. These Japanese Monster movies are just hysterical! I had not seen this one for many years and I was doubled over with laughter watching it! It is great that they released this film and I would have given it 5 stars,but I remember some different scenes as a kid that ended up in the deleted scenes section of this release. Still all and all a great buy with 3 versions of the film and lots of extra goodies. I would love to see "War Of The Gargantuas", "The Green Slime" and " Yog Monster from Space" released! TOHO FAN ALERT: YOG MONSTER FROM SPACE WAS JUST RELEASED UNDER THE TITLE - SPACE AMOEBA!

Comedy from Sebastian Spence, Believability from Chad Allen
, good story, good cast. Fun

MORE INFORMATION.......2007-08-15

"Shock to the System" is a splendid Mystery/Detective presentation that is splendidly acted and directed. As a follow-up to "Third Man Out" it certainly answers some questions that I had while viewing "Third Man Out" (e.g., what is Starchey's "story" before he became a Detective?--a soldier that fell in love with another soldier and suffered the ramifications thereof)

The casting in this film is superb. Chad Allen is so very great as Detective Donald Starchey and so is Sebastian Spence as his partner. They are very believable as a very contented and happy couple. Morgan Fairchild gives a wonderful performance as a rather unhappy mother of the murdered gay son that is trying to blame "those gays" for her son's murder. I'm so very glad that the casting people brought back the little fired hotel Desk Clerk from the first episode as Starchey's office manager; he brings some "comic relief" to the story--plus he's "easy on the eyes".".(The scene when he first meets Starchey's partner is hysterical.)

The bottom line is that I truly loved "Shock to the System"; god, it is so good.

By the way do look at the cast interviews and the director's comments under Special features" they are very enlightening!

Wonderfully sweet relationship movie........2007-08-15

I adore the connection between Donald and Timmy. The action and mystery are well done, and provide a wonderful accompaniment to them.

Good mystery - well acted........2007-07-08

I watched this movie with no idea what to expect. For those curious, the gay aspect it minimal. It is part of the plot, but there aren't "skin" scenes. The plot is well constructed and Chad Allen is quite convincingly strong as the detective. It's nice to see a detective story where the detective isn't omnipotent. Why 4 stars? Hey, I figured the plot twist out before the final reel. I find this more a murder mystery than a gay murder mystery, but others may thrill at the nudity that's there.

Ichi.......2007-09-15

Well, i watched this movie and it was kind of cool/disgusting. Full of gorey and gruesome scenes. This movie was dragged out a little too long and should of been shorter and had a few stupid scenes that should of never been in it.

One gory comedy.......2007-07-10

What can you say about Ichi the Killer? It's actually fits more into the genre of a comedy than anything else. Don't let all the hype about the gore and the blood-letting scare you, since it's more in the league of "Kill Bill," or some of the earlier Peter Jackson horror flicks; in another word, it's over exaggerated violence, which makes it look very artificial. In fact, the entire movie has a bit of a cartoonish feel to it; well, it was based on a manga after all.

The basic premise is that there's this guy name Ichi, who was tramatized by an event he witnessed when he was in high school. So, he is left with all this guilt, and now he is trying to make up for his past sins by playing this superhero, who "protects" the innocent. There is only one problem to this... Ichi is actually a psycho. Due to Ichi's psychological handicap, a man by the name of JiJii was able to manipulate him to his will, thus the blood-bath begins.

There are plenty of scenes that can be described as disturbing, but usually the more gruesome scenes are done off screen; but as I mentioned previously, even when you see them, they are exaggerated to the point where you thought you might be watching an episode of Itchy and Scratchy. With this in mind, along with quite a large amount of scenes that can be considered to be funny, this is indeed a bona fide comedy (no sarcasm implied)!

A must see.......2007-06-27

If you are a fan of Audition, then you must see this movie. Its brutal, but in a beautiful way!

There's no love in your punches at all!.......2007-06-15

Koroshiya Ichi is probably the ne plus ultra of violent movies that makes A Clockwork Orange like The Sound of Music. The last time I saw something so gruesome was Ilsa-She Wolf of the SS.

A mob boss named Anjo disappears along with 3 million yen, and his devoted lackey Masa Kakihara, a scar-faced blond-haired yakuza with piercings sporting a flashy purple trenchcoat, with two slits on either side of his cheek, takes it upon himself to find out who kidnapped him.

Kakihara is quite the sadist, but just as equally a masochist, as he even cuts off his own tongue to apologize to a syndicate boss. Given a tip by Jijii, one of a group of Chinese immigrants eking out livings doing dirty jobs in Shinjuku, he kidnaps Suzuki, a yakuza boss, strips him naked, hangs him from the ceiling with hooks, and pours boiling hot oil over the guy's back! Yakuza tempura, hmmm....He also has his trademark long pins, which he uses to deadly affect, resulting in human pincushions.

The mastermind is Jijii. His killer is Ichi (Japanese for one), a mentally fragile guy who dresses up in a black rubber suit with a day-glo "1" on the back. His goal is to wipe out the yakuza in Shinjuku. And he persuades the easily swayed Ichi that they are like the people who bullied him in high school, and that it's his role to rid the world of bullies. "They beat upon the weak and pretend to own the world. Vengeance is yours. If you don't kill the bad guys, who will?" However, Jijii doesn't hesitate to use Ichi to get rid of his helpers, who are just tools for his crusade against the yakuza.

Ichi is so extreme in his killings that the people who witness what he has done see a mass of blood, entrails, splattered walls and ceilings, and at one point a human face that has been sliced off. "As gross as ever," says one of his cleaners, who has slipped on the scarlet mess on the floor. In fact in one scene, Ichi kicks down a door, jumps inside a room filled with yakuza. We then hear screams, then yakuza blood and guts flying out the door. A repeated motif is his slicing the carotid artery, and then fwoooshhhh, out comes, as Alex from A Clockwork Orange would say, the red red kroovy.

This movie is very very sadistic, meaning those with a weak stomach watching this during dinner will find themselves emptying breakfast stuff! Although given the comic-book like depictions of mutilation, it will also garner some laughs for the really twisted--the drug-addicted Kano in the TV set for example. But the scene of a pimp savagely beating one of his prostitutes and then violating her ranks high on the cruelty list. Don't worry-he gets his from Ichi and how! And a prostitute is not only beaten but has her nipples sliced off by Kakihara! Ouch!

After being expelled from the syndicate, Kakihara continues the search for Anjo. With him are tough guy Takayama and a disgraced ex-cop Kaneko, who looks a bit like Barack Obama. Kaneko's probably one of the more decent characters, he's just had rotten luck. In fact, he is one of the few genuinely nice to Ichi, as he's reminded how Anjo took him in after he was expelled from the police force for losing his gun, something that even Jijii recognizes. Then there's Karen, a Chinese call-girl who speaks heavily accented Japanese and English. Her anecdote of her wishing someone's dog dead is funny. Note: in that story, she mentions a nawatobi rope which is merely Japanese for a jumprope.

This is kind of a departure from Asano Tadanobu's usual roles. This actor, the Johnny Depp of Japan, normally has a soft-spoken undertone, but the blond hair, scarred face, wicked smile, and slits that cause his mouth to open extra wide, make this one of his more memorable roles.

With a soundtrack veers from weird gibberish techno to a slow synth score, and a kind of retro-70's style cinematography, liking Ichi the Killer depends upon your stomach, and an open mind to extreme violence.

"Listen, when you're hurting someone, don't think of the pain that he feels. Only concentrate on the pleasure of causing him pain. That's the only way to show compassion to your partner."---Kakihara to Karen.

bunch of weenies acting tough.......2007-06-12

not a single frame of celluloid that is believable here. bunch of puny little wimps acting tough. oh yeah. so bad, so ridiculous...and, ultimately, so moronic.

the reason this "director" (I use the term loosely) tries to "shock" (and can't even do that very well, by the way) is because he lacks true talent required to tell a great crime story.

Let's hope he didn't give himself hernia while straining to disgust us with this pile of vomit.

Brendan Fraser made his film debut in this 1992 comedy that never quite discovers its audience constituency. On the one hand, it features Pauly Shore, which would seem to define the picture's tone and identity accordingly. On the other hand, the film's other leading man is Sean Astin, the earnest star of Rudy, suggesting that Encino Man will have a lot of heart despite its silly premise. But none of that turns out to be true. Fraser plays an unfrozen caveman discovered by a pair of California high school outcasts (Shore and Astin). As the grunting newcomer becomes popular with the other kids, Shore and Astin try to bask in his reflected glow. Fraser, beginning a long movie career playing cartoonish goofballs, works entirely on instinct and earns his laughs. Shore, however, relies on his familiar verbal shtick, and Astin makes a great overgrown puppy pining after a lost girlfriend. Directed by Les Mayfield, who came to this project from his acclaimed documentary, Hearts of Darkness: A Filmmaker's Apocalypse. --Tom Keogh

Description

Starring Pauly Shore, Encino Man unearths the biggest laughs in 2 million years! The fun kicks off when two high school buddies dig up a frozen caveman in their backyard! Once the living fossil thaws out, the friends figure he's their ticket to being cool. But the plan backfires when the newcomer turns everyday life upside down, generating pre-hysterical craziness wherever he roams! Co-starring Sean Astin (Bulworth) and Brendan Fraser (The Mummy), you'll definitely dig Encino Man-- the totally irreverent, totally awesome comedy that shows just how hilariously out-of-control things evolve once the stone age meets the rock age head-on!

crap, thats all........2007-08-20

i got this thig because it said that it resembled WAYNE's WORLD,a masterpeice.it doesnt , all this says is that ALL of these actors should deserve to die. this movie could be the leading cause in mass suicide.
horrible,just a horrible movie. DONT see it, please!

Most excellent, but quick question for other fans out there..........2007-05-28

Loved this movie since it came out, so I've had both the vhs tape and the dvd of it. Has anyone else noticed that on the dvd version, a part is missing? When Dave and Stoney are trying to teach Link how to fight to defend himself - at the end of that scene - you don't hear Stoney's wonderful line, 'Ow, my pancreas!'

What's up with that?

Oh, and I'd just like to point out that the movie Clueless (another great flick) owes a good part of its linguistic brilliance to Encino Man.

Stone Age and Cavemen.......2007-04-13

I brought this movie based on the fact that I watched it when I was younger and that I love it to pieces. I had to have it in my collection. I found the movie quite entertaining and funny as heck.

Goofy, funny, silly but BIG FUN.......2007-01-09

This is not great art, this is only great fun. I typically never watch anything more than twice, once at the theater and then once again at home if it's really good. I watched this at my 8 year old nephew's house, laughed till my sides hurt and promptly ordered the dvd for myself. I've now watched it at least 6 times. Every time I need a good laugh, in goes Encino Man. My wife likes it just as much as I do. Good clean fun.

The Weasel Interprets Unfrozen Caveman Adolescents.......2006-08-06

Though not as amusing as "In The Army Now" nor as conceptually satisfying as "Pauly Shore is Dead" (though mercifully less painful than "Bio-Dome,") "Encino Man" is typical lighthearted buffoonery not intended for anyone not in the demographic of males aged eight to twenty. Surprisingly, given his evident onscreen cranial development, Shore does not play the Encino Man, a role that goes to Brendan Fraser.

In essence, Shore and company find a caveman adolescent while digging a pool in the yard and take him to high school. Of course there is a whole competition for the pretty girl (which concludes with some prom related mayhem and cake defiling) with much of the plot about fitting in. Needless to say the caveman, "Link," becomes very popular, and learns to do many complex tasks (like driving a car on two wheels, and dancing to an absolutely wretched song apparently called "She Likes to Feed The Monkey") easily, while indirectly winning the Prom Queen amongst much drama. In the end there is an earthquake that sends Link's true love, a teenage cavewoman back from the Neolithic era for him to drool over, in what may be the single most contrived plot point in movie history.

Be sure to watch for the "hilarious" cultural interactions in the Latino bar (the subtitles about cheese are amusing) which served only to make me wish that the INS was that effective in real life. For some reason this also gives Shore the excuse to start his trademark "weasel" bit in an odd mix of English and Spanish.

This is ultra-light entertainment, yet has some modestly funny moments. This will be a hit with most teenage males, but won't convert anyone outside that demographic. The movie is essentially clean: it was rated "PG" in the US, the UK, Australia, and Singapore, rated "T" in Spain, rated "7" in Sweden, and received the desirable rating of "L" in Iceland.

Lost Boys of Sudan, which premiered on PBS's P.O.V. series in 2003, is a gripping documentary about young refugees from the Sudanese conflict as well as a moving story of survival and acclimation in a strange and daunting land. The film centers around two young Dinka tribesmen who must flee a vicious civil war in their homeland and risk thirst, starvation, and animal attack to reach refugee camps thousands of miles away in Kenya in Ethiopia. Once there, the "lost boys'" journey begins again, as they are resettled in Houston, Texas, and must start new lives in a completely alien country. Eventually, their adjustment to 21st century life becomes the film's main focus; can they join American society and still retain their tribal connections? Told in simple but powerful images, Lost Boys of Sudan affectingly addresses themes of home, acceptance, family, and what it means to be a member of society--both America and the global community. --Paul Gaita

Description

Winner of an Independent Spirit Award and named Best Documentary at the San Francisco International Film Festival, LOST BOYS OF SUDAN follows two teenage Sudanese refugees on an extraordinary journey from Africa to America, offering a gripping and sobering peek into the myth of the American Dream. In the late `80s, Islamic fundamentalists in Sudan waged war on the country's separatists, leaving behind over 20,000 male orphans, otherwise known as "lost boys." For those who survived this traumatic ordeal and found their way to refugee camps, som were chosen to participate in a resettlement program in America--a distant place so presumably full of hope and opportunity that the Sudanese sometimes call it Heaven. But what if a free ticket to "Heaven" turned out to be anything but? Sidestepping conventional voice-over narration in favor of real-time, close-quarters poignancy, LOST BOYS OF SUDAN focuses on Santino and Peter, members of the Dinka tribe, during their first life-altering year in the United States. Safe at last from physical danger--but a world away from home--the boys must grapple with extreme cultural differences as they come to understand both the abundance and alienation of contemporary American life.

Exceptional Documentary for TLBOS.......2007-07-10

after reading What is the What by Dave Eggers, i had to try out this DVD. it was amazing.

even my wife liked it.

plight of the refugee.......2007-06-04

Good film showing the struggles of two refugees' integration into American society. Shows the everyday struggles of two young men that have known nothing but hardship. This documentary shows bits of life in the refugee camp, through their transition and first year in America. Would've liked to have gotten more of their back story, as it is an amazing story of survival.

Dissapointing to Say The Least.......2007-01-17

Unless you are interested in the challenges posed by introducing a number of displaced youth who have grown up in an extremely deprived and disjointed society to the United States, this movie will not "do it" for you.

The most intruiging phenomenon in the entire film is the obvious mistrust and lack of connection between poor African-Americans and poor Africans, beyond the color of their skin.

For the most part, the situation exists between most working-class Africans and the African-Americans with whom they are lumped up with and have to coexist with at work and home (if they live in predominantly black neighborhoods) and is therefore nothing new, unless you are of a different race.

Great Informational Tool, Subtitle Malfunction.......2006-07-06

This film provides a great informational tool about the struggles and opportunities of refugees trying to make it on their own in a new place. As a history teacher, I am excited to show this to my class to demonstrate assimilation and acculturization. My one problem, and this is a big problem, is that a great deal of the subtitles go way off of the TV. This made seeing what they were saying difficult. I couldn't even see the information at the end. I have a pretty big TV, so I'm sure that this might be a persistent problem. Also, the deleted scenes have no subtitles. But all in all, this is a great glimpse of their lives. The most eye-opening is the tension between African Americans and the Africans. Ironically, the boys from Africa got along better with their white friends than the African Americans. Also interesting is the "help" the church tried to give. They keep delivering all of this furniture to the boys' tiny apartment, yet the lady from the church (who looks just like actress Shelly Long) virtually ignores their pleas for help in finding jobs and educational opportunities. She walks away from them and says "They're angry"

powerful and compelling documentary.............2006-01-16

For anyone unfamiliar with the plight of the numerous lost boys of Sudan, I really reccomend you check out this powerful, compelling, cautionary and very educational film, that looks at two young men who made it out of the turbulence of their country and were able to make a life for themselves in the United States. The Lost Boys consist of some 200,000 (or more) young Sudanese refugees, orphaned, left orphaned and alone in the African nation of Sudan. One connection out of the poverty and desolation of their country, is if they are able to obtain sponsorship through church-based programs in the United States. The two boys profiled in this film were recipients of this sponsorship.

While one journeys to Texas, to seek out work, buy a car and also attend classes at the local high school, the other's journey takes him to a small (predominantly Caucasian) town in Kansas, who attempts to integrate himself into a foreign, and a culture for which he finds himself, both, daunted and isolated.

I believe everyone should see this film, and, in fact, I think it should be implemented in the high school curriculum as a pre-requisite for all students. It is important that we all receive an education in the personal struggles of refugees, like these two young men. This film only scratches the surface, into this subject matter. There are so many important stories, like this, that need to be told!

A Regular Frankie Fan Review.......2007-05-16

Whether or not you are considered "a regular Frankie Fan" or you are a Rocky Horror Virgin, this movie is an experience that no other movie can provide. The interesting thing about it is, when the movie was created, it was never the plan for it to become the "event" that it has been for the last 30 or so years.

The movie is a spoof of B-Movie Sci-Fi and movie musicals, with a signature dance to boot! The plot does begin with Brad and Janet attending a wedding, only to become engaged after the ceremony. While leaving the ceremony, the car breaks down with a flat tire. Brad locates a nearby castle, the castle of Dr Frank-N-Furter, while Frankie is hosting a convention for the Transylvanians. It is here that Frankie brings Rocky, his creation, to life. And of course, complications occur.

The really fun part of watching Rocky Horror is in the choice of the viewing. The viewer can choose to hear the audience participation (and participate along with the audience if they choose) the viewer can choose the option that gives prompts using props such as rice, toilet paper, water guns, newspapers, and the like.

With many theaters not showing Rocky Horror at midnight anymore, mostly due to the carnage (trash) that ends up after everyone throwing so many props, the option of watching it at home is a benefit. It's fun to talk back at the dialog, sing along with the songs, and laugh at whole thing because after all, it is a comedy.

Don't Dream It.... Be It!

two weddings and a funeral.......2007-01-18

There's something unsettling about church weddings. Perhaps it's the organ music, officiates dressed in black, the crying, or even the ejaculatory rice throwing. The whole thing is bizarrely paradoxical in its combination of the sexual and asexual, birth and death, black and white, austerity and prurience.

Kind of like life.

The Rocky Horror Picture Show features two weddings - each demonstrates the intrinsic absurdity of the Puritan's sexual rite of passage. The first one opens the film. It's a scene we've witnessed before: happy couple drives off before a crowd of joyous onlookers. This time, however, the figurative is made literal as their car is decorated with the words "Wait til tonite. She got hers now. He'll get his." Quid pro quo. "An hour ago, she was plain old Betty Monroe. Now she's Mrs. Ralph Hapschat." Marriage as transaction and ownership (or even consensual rape) could not be clearer.

The plot of Rocky Horror, or what there is of one, centers on All-American squares Brad (Barry Bostwick) and fiancée Janet (Susan Sarandon) after they make a wrong turn into a time warp and find themselves the playthings of the maniacal transvestite Dr. Frank-N-Furter (Tim Curry) and his merry band of weirdoes. It's not really important. The second wedding occurs halfway through the film, a rush job between Frank-N-Furter and his creation, the titular Rocky Horror, a perfect physical specimen birthed to be the mad scientist's sex slave. There is an element of incest to it and we pity poor Rocky, who really has little say in the matter (singing "Oh, can't you see, that I'm at the start of a pretty big downer"). Once again, subtext becomes text. When we infantilize sex (and further, our wives, and even further, women in general), we marry our children. Like Mrs. Ralph Hapschat, Rocky Horror (shared initials, natch) has been given life, but at the service of another.

While drawing upon the other 1970s androgynous space alien of glam Ziggy Stardust, Rocky Horror also invites immediate comparison to Grease (it's worth noting that Barry Bostwick originated the role of Danny Zuko on Broadway - the yin to Brad Major's yang), with all its 1950s kitsch, themes of sexual liberation (Sandy sings "You're the One That I Want," Janet sings "Touch-A, Touch-A, Touch Me" - potato, po-ta-to), and of course, the music. When Danny Zuko succeeds in making his own spandex-clad and cigarette-smoking Frankenstein monster out of Olivia Newton John, would it have been that out of place to see Frank-N-Furter belt out from the Funhouse "Don't Dream It, Be It?"

Perhaps, but not because the sentiment is misplaced. Janet's transformation into a fully-realized sexual being is the more honest, and further, more empowering of the two. Her central motivation is to please herself, not some guy in a leather jacket (indeed, she cuckolds her own Danny) whose attempts to woo her at a drive-in movie theatre border worryingly on date rape. Grease wants to have its Eisenhower Era nostalgia both ways - at turns revering the decade and rejecting it. Rocky Horror simply rejects.

Near the end of the picture, a wheel-chair bound Strangelove-esque character (read: impotence) shows up to save Brad and Janet. But from what? Where were you when you were really needed: the Rydell High graduation carnival, 1959?

Interesting footnote: Rocky Horror Picture Show creator Richard O'Brien (who plays Riff Raff) wrote a sequel, Rocky Horror Shows His Heels, in which a pregnant Janet gives birth to a child of questionable paternity. When O'Brien and director Jim Sharman ran into problems convincing the original cast to sign on, the plot and characters were changed (though Brad and Janet remain), and the film was eventually produced as 1981's Shock Treatment.

What Shocks?.......2007-01-09

I found this movie to be such a waste of time, that I threw out the disk the moment it was over.

Shock Treatment is supposed to be the sequel The Rocky Horror Picture Show. It takes place entirely within a recording studio in Denton. While Brad and Janet are played by new actors, most of the other principle characters are played by the cast of Rocky Horror.

It was nice to see old friends again, but they were put to no good use. The songs were horrible, the story incomprehensible. The movie was not shocking, or funny, or sexy, or interesting - or well done.

Save yourself the trouble.

Thrill me, Chill me, Fulfill me........2007-01-05

What can I say about TRHPS that hasn't already been said? I went to the live shows; I threw cherries and hotdogs, and squirted water guns and got really hammered. I yelled "hey kool-aid" and "follow the bouncing thumb" I dressed up like a Transylvanian, I had to explain to my parents that my obsession with Frankenfurter was healthy, and liking men in fishnets was just a phase ( I was wrong by the way, I love me some drag queens still). I have the original Broadway soundtrack, the foreign soundtracks (toca toca toca toca me) I have the coffee table books, original posters, commemorative everything and still I am looking for more. This "cult classic" never was a passing fancy, this movie with or without being live is one of the most amazing experiences of my life. I have it to thank for my love of Tim Curry. If Marijuana is the gateway drug, this movie was the gateway to my obsession with everything deviant and glamorous. I am not one of those elitist that say you cant "know" RHPS without going to a live showing, because not every town still has those (mine stopped because we trashed the darn theater too many times) I believe that by watching it with an open mind, and with a sense of humor that you can, in your minds eye, understand what the millions of fans adore. It wouldn't hurt to get a copy of the soundtrack with all of the responses, and simultaneously watch the DVD, its not cheating.

Second Chance to get the Anniversary Edition!.......2006-09-07

This is a great set for people who want BOTH movies, and don't have the Anniversary Edition of ROCKY HORROR. The two movies are great, but for completely differing reasons. ROCKY HORROR PICTURE SHOW is a cult classic with an established fan base, and SHOCK TREATMENT stands on its own as a curious sequel which heads off in a new direction both musically and thematically.

The set here is a special 3 disc edition with two discs devoted to ROCKY HORROR and a single disc for SHOCK TREATMENT. The ROCKY HORROR portion includes the movie, audience participation tracks and video, commentary by Patricia Quinn and O'Brien, segments from a "Where Are They Now?" special on VH-1, and tons of featurettes featuring cast, crew, and fans. It is a rerelease of the 2000-2001 anniversary edition, so if you own that... no need to buy this again (just track down SHOCK TREATMENT on its own).

SHOCK TREATMENT includes a remastered print of the movie (for the first time in widescreen on DVD), a commentary track from the fan club president and his friend (they tell trivia and do some of their "act" for screenings), two features with interviews from cast and crew members about the making of the film and the score, and trailers (which are bizarre and worth a look). Richard O'Brien does not make an appearance in ANY of the extras, so we have to rely on people involved with the production such as director Jim Sharman and Patricia Quinn to fill us in.

better than I thought.......2007-01-10

This dvd comes with two episodes. A shocker on shock street and click. A shocker on shock street was pretty good. It was one of the most interesting goosebumps episodes I've seen. Click wasn't as good, but still good enough to watch.I found click to be more humurous than scary.While I was watching it I kept thinking, this is a goosebumps episode? This episode did kind of have a scary twisted ending though as most of the episodes do. If you like goosebumps, you should watch this one.

Pretty Good Episode...Not great........2006-08-11

Even though this DVD hasen't been released yet, I remember this episode constintly being re-run on FOX KIDS. It was an alright episode from what I can remember. I don't want to give away the ending or anything but I think the kids end up being robots.
