R. Kelly Light It Up Tour.......2007-09-01
This concert was more than I had expected. Job well done!!! Can't wait to see a concert when he decides to travel near my area!!!
EXPECTED MUCH MORE.......2007-07-17
C'MON R, YOU HAVE BEEN IN THE BUSINESS TO LONG TO JUST GIVE US you grabbing the mic and SINGING ALL NITE LONG, no dancing, no ladies(tastfully dress), no showmanship. I EXPECTED your #1s to at least get an extended concert mix. You could have cut the "fillers" from the show and did this. I was more entertained by your music videos than the concert. Buy the dvd with "step in the name of love" much more entertaining.
oh my god.......2007-07-14
Sras. y señores este es el ultimate dvd, para los fieles creyentes del R. Kelly... para todas la niñas, toda lìrica està del carajo..
Asì que si no lo tienes, entonces no entiendo que clase de mùsica estàs escuchando.. Abre tus oìdos a un verdadero artista de R and B.

Great show but has a few flaws..........2007-07-07
For R. Kelly to be in the music business for 15 years he should have had a dvd out a long time ago but this one from his last tour is nothing short of entertaining despite the constant camera angle movements and his obvious attempts at lip synching. One reason in particular I think the show is good is because R. Kelly put almost all of his hits into a 2 hour span which is great. Most artists would just cater to two or three hits and their current album but Kelly play all of his hits, current material, AND fan favorites. He also isn't afraid to ineract with the audience when singing because one again artists today act like they are scared to talk to the people who made them. My favorite moment in the show is when he breaks down and does a few songs a capella including "The Zoo" from his new album. The only two flaws in the show is, as I stated earlier, that as soon as the viewer gets a good glimpse at what is happening it's immediately cut to a view of the audience which becomes quite annoying after the opening with Mr. Show Biz. The other problem is that R. Kelly has a great voice but was it really necessary to lip synch when he was obviously recording the show for? I can understand saving voice for later in the show but it isn't logical to me that you have to use a backing track when he can hold his own vocally. Overall the show is worth the price because you get a chock full of hits for such a minute price...

Say It Isn't So is touted as being from the Farelly brothers, who wrote and directed the movies Dumb and Dumber, Kingpin, and There's Something About Mary. And though they didn't write or direct this movie, it certainly has the same elements: charming lead actors (in this case, Heather Graham from Austin Powers: The Spy Who Shagged Me and Chris Klein from Election and American Pie) put through all sorts of comic grotesqueries, ranging from having an ear cut off to getting a hand stuck up a cow's rectum. Orphaned dogcatcher Gilly (Klein) and incompetent hairdresser Jo (Graham) fall in love, only to discover that Gilly's long-lost mother is Jo's own white trash momma (played with gusto by Sally Field). Unfortunately, they'd already slept together, so Jo flees in shame to go back to her ex-boyfriend in Beaver, Oregon. But when Jo's real brother shows up, Gilly sets out to win Jo back--only her mom wants her to marry the ex and tells the Beaver police that Gilly is a sexual predator. Say It Isn't So doesn't have the crude wit of There's Something About Mary, but there are several laugh-out-loud moments, and both Graham and Klein are sweet and engaging. Orlando Jones has a zestful turn as a legless seaplane pilot. --Bret Fetzer
Description
Boy meets girl. Boy loves girl. Boy discovers girl may be his sister. (Boy, this could be trouble.) To make matters worse, by the time he discovers "it isn't so," he has precious little time to stop the woman of his dreams from marrying another man. It's shameless romantic comedy at its finest produced by the twisted minds behind There's Something About Mary and Me Myself & Irene!
Customer Reviews:
Fixing down.......2007-09-12
Despite all the gross-out jokes, this winds up being a fairly endearing romantic comedy. Though it is odd watching Sally Field in such a sleazy role.
Good for a laugh.......2007-06-27
This movie is funny. Is it a classic? No. But good for a laugh from a person who is in need of putting the brain in neutral and laughing at visual and adult sexual material (not hard core). A person taking themselves very seriously would not enjoy this video, but someone with a sense of humor and open mind will laugh out loud at the antics.
Surprisingly funn!.......2007-03-15
We rented this movie the other day because we didnt know of anything else to rent and to my surprise, it was hilarious! I would definetly buy it!
This film is retarded!.......2006-02-14
How can anyone watch this piece of crap film? Yeah Heather Graham is hot but the film sucks and I don't like Chris Klein. This is the worst movie I ever seen. Do not watch it!
Good Clean Incestuous Fun.......2005-10-08
"Say It Isn't So" isn't a non-stop laugh riot like "There's Something About Mary," but it's definitely right up there on the hilarity scale with Farrelly Brothers' films like "Dumb and Dumber" and "Kingpin." What really makes this movie is the supporting cast. Orlando Jones (a.k.a. The 7-up Guy) as "Dig," the pontoon plane-piloting double amputee, and Sally Field (a.k.a. Gidget) as Heather Graham's foul-mouthed, conniving mother, got me laughing out loud at least a dozen times. Heather Graham looks great, as usual, but is basically relegated to the "straight man's" role. Chris Klein, though, emotes exactly the bumbling, sympathetic humor that made his performance in "Election" so great. He has a real comedic talent for playing an unlucky, Chaplin-esque everyman that we can all love, even when he has his arm stuck up a cow's butt.

Playtime with Winnie the Pooh and his friends is all about fun, but frequently the gang gains some important social skills along the way. "April Pooh" finds Pooh and his friends the victims of the elusive April Fool's tricks and the group can't quite decide whether the tricks are meant to be scary or nice. By working together, Pooh and his friends calm each others' fears and finally discover both April Fool's motivations and his true identity. When Tigger and Pooh find themselves "borrowing" and engineering a runaway train in the Wild West in "The Good The Bad and The Tigger," the adventure quickly comes to a screeching halt and the two friends find themselves locked up by Sheriff Piglet where they have plenty of time to think about appropriate behavior. Pooh and his friends learn about responsibility and the importance of treating people equally in "Bubble Trouble" and "What's The Score Pooh" tests the gang's ability to play cooperatively. Also included is a bonus interactive matching game. (Ages 2 to 7) --Tami Horiuchi
Description
When "what should I do?" problems arise, no matter what their size, they're a breeze for Winnie The Pooh and his friends when they tackle them together. Fun is the name of the game in four Pooh-rific tales that show how honesty and consideration can save the day. Join Pooh and his pals as they hunt for an "April Fool" and take a fantasy trip to the Wild, Wild West. Learn important lessons about kindness and friendship, and play along with the Hundred Acre Wood gang to learn how teamwork can solve even the biggest little challenges. It's just one more way that Pooh makes growing up fun!

Product Description
Two aging fighters in LA, friends, get a call from a Vegas promoter because his undercard fighters for a Mike Tyson bout that night are suddenly unavailable. He wants them to box each other. They agree as long as the winner gets a shot at the middleweight title. They enlist Gloria, Cesar's current and Vinnie's ex girlfriend, to drive them to Vegas. On the trip, we see flashbacks to their previous title shots, their competitive friendship, and Gloria's motivational wiles. (She has her own entrepreneurial dreams.) The fight itself is historic: ten rounds of savagery and courage. Who will win, who'll get the title shot, who gets Gloria, and where will she find venture capital?
Amazon.com
Best friends Vince (Woody Harrelson) and Cesar (Antonio Banderas) are both down-on-their-luck boxers who've suddenly been given a highly visible fight and a promised shot at the middleweight title--only they're fighting each other. With Grace (Lolita Davidovich), Cesar's current girlfriend and Vince's ex, they drive to Las Vegas. Unsurprisingly, the trip opens up hidden resentments, regrets, and mistakes from the past. What's more surprising is how meandering and shapeless Play It to the Bone is; writer-director Ron Shelton is responsible for such charming and sprightly sports films as Bull Durham, White Men Can't Jump, and Tin Cup, but boxing doesn't seem to have inspired him. The actual boxing match does achieve a kind of brutal energy, though it's curiously filled with gratuitous hallucinations of female nudity. Still, Harrelson and Banderas have a nice rapport, and in their best moments they just yammer at each other, not exactly listening but still communing in a kind of rhythmic groove. Also featuring Lucy Liu from TV's Ally McBeal and dozens of famous cameos at ringside during the bout. --Bret Fetzer

pretty good.......2007-08-30
both woody harrelson and antonio banderas gave great performances in this. i don't understand all the bad reviews. this deserves atleast 3 and a half stars. its pretty funny. very entertaining film. really underrated
Hey!, Davidovich and Liu make this film worth a watch........2007-01-03
These two women grace the movie and it is a pleasure to watch them, especially when Lolita gets that red dress on at the end.
I don't want to give the ending away but do not think, the ending was all that predictable, I mean for the Rocky movies, we know, he's usually going to win, but there are a number of ways to get there.
So, maybe this is the first boxing movie of the new millenium; or maybe it is another Woody Harrelsen sports movie, the previous one I know of being "white man can't jump" of the basketball genre.
Tom Sizemore does fine in his role; Lucy Liu and Lolita Davidovich fill in their roles well enough. Antonio and Woody really aren't the boxing types, not the biceps you might see on a real boxer, but I wouldn't let that stand in the way of the plot.
A little zany, not a classic but not as bad as what some say.
On my short-list of "Worst Movies Ever".......2005-05-16
I'm a fan of schlock and b-movies, so I can't honestly say that "Play it to the Bone" is the worst movie I've ever seen, at least from a technical standpoint. The cinematography is alright. It features name actors and what appears to be a budget. Compared to some of the dreck I've waddled through over the years, "Play it to the Bone" at least meets some bare minimum threshold to qualify as a movie, and that's more than I can say for, say, "Burial Ground" or "Challenge of the Lady Ninja."
On the other hand, I can't think of any other movie that actually aspires to be good and fails so completely as this one. If a b-movie aspires to be an hour and a half of trashy entertainment, provided it doesn't bore me I'm more than willing to sit through plot gaps, eye-rolling dialogue, technical incompetence, etc. When a movie features Woody Harrelson and Antonio Bandares - not to mention a budget - I expect ... I don't know - a plot? Characters I care about? A laugh or two? Something?
I'm not going to bother to rehash what little plot you'll find in "Play it to the Bone." Just trust me on this on: About a half hour in, the movie turns into the most anoying and uneventful buddy flick you've ever seen. Neither of the main characters ever springs to life, which is even more incredible when you consider that Harrelson and Bandares seem to have some charisma. Absolutely nothing at all happens except for some "wacky hijinks" along the way that won't even make you smile. The climactic fight scene at the end is poorly shot and just ridiculous.
The only reason to see this movie is to witness maybe the most collosal waste of time, effort and money Hollywood has pinched off in years. Don't even consider renting this dreck.
Worst Movie Ever.......2004-08-13
Antonio Banderas and Woody Harrelson hook up with a current/ex girlfriend who gives them a ride to Vegas, where they will be boxing one another in a high profile bout. That is the basic premise of the film. At first glance, one would think that such a decent cast would make something of this movie.
Instead, we get a lot of useless yacking, arguing, and spilling of inner most secrets on the road that leave viewers yawning. How I made it to the last half hour of the movie still amazes me, because I did end up asking myself why I was watching this crap when there was probably a more interesting weather report on somewhere. The characters are not even remotely likable.
The fight itself is filled with confusing imagery that really makes little sense. Sex and boxing do not come together well.
This film is so bad that it isn't even entertaining in its horrendocity (new word?). There are bad films a person can watch without feeling as though they have been robbed of two hours of their life. This is not one of them, and I am confident in calling it the worst movie ever made.
I wouldn't recommend this movie to my worst enemy. If I could give it negative numbers of stars, I would.
Offbeat, irreverent, and sometimes....... even funny.......2004-08-08
This film has been knocked down more times than Dominguez and Boudreau in the climatic final fight scene. Sure the story was a bit uneven, but I still liked this quirky buddy/road trip movie for its unexpected and offbeat take that includes a seamier side of professional boxing. Antonio Banderas and Woody Harrelson are likeable stars and I thought they played off each other very well. While Harrelson is known to shift effortlessly from dramatic to comedic roles and back again, this was the first time I saw a lighter, more humorous side of Banderas and I thought he acquitted himself very well. Talented and sexy Lolita Davidovich as their street smart and savvy love interest was as much a welcomed casting choice as Lucy Liu's was a total waste of time other than being the object of Harrelson's vivid backseat description of her femininity prior to a hilarious if impromptu and primitive tryst. A host of cameo appearances fill out the rest of the card. Don't bring high expectations to the match and you won't be unduly disappointed, and you just may be mildly entertained for 2 hours.

It makes sorrowful sense that a 1999 revision (albeit unofficial) of John Hughes's The Breakfast Club would involve guns on a high school campus, a children's crusade fought on the Internet, a handful of adolescents imprisoned by their fight-or-flight reputations in the inner city, and... oh yes, Judd Nelson. Nelson, who played the heavy-metal lout from a violent home in The Breakfast Club, shows up here as a hip history instructor named Knowles, so committed to his students in deplorable classroom circumstances that he leads them to friendlier digs off-campus and is suspended for his efforts.
Already outraged about an earlier run-in with a high-strung security guard (Forest Whitaker)--who later pulls a gun on the most harmless kid at school--young Lester (Usher Raymond) wounds the guard, leads a takeover of the building, and oversees authorship of an online manifesto explaining his actions. While supporters, detractors, and cops jockey for position outside, Lester and his fellow rebels, a perfect mix of teenage archetypes who normally would have little to do with one another, unburden their souls. The Hughes Effect kicks in as Lester reveals that his decent father was killed by racist cops, that a Sal Mineo-type (Robert Richards) is beaten at home, that a pregnant girl (Sara Gilbert) wasn't even kissed by the creep she slept with, etc. Writer-director Craig Bolotin, unlike Hughes, can't persuade us to overlook the convenient symmetries and complementary struggles among his outcasts. Everything begins to feel forced after awhile, heading toward a prefabricated finish, though Bolotin's good intentions are not without some emotional impact. --Tom Keogh
Description
In his dazzling leading-role debut, Usher Raymond (Billboard's "Star Of The Year") plays Lester, the troubled teen who has finally been pushed to his limit. Taking matters into their own hands, Lester and his friends hold a police officer (Forest Whitaker) hostage and barricade themselves inside the school. Negotiator Audrey McDonald (Vanessa L. Williams) struggles to maintain peace while tensions simmer inside. As the crisis builds, "The Lincoln Six" discover talents they didn't know they had as their fight to expose dismal classroom conditions gains national attention. Starring "a cast of gifted newcomers" (Roger Ebert, Chicago Sun-Times), this powerful and uplifting film lit up audiences around the nation.

A Must See Movie.......2007-02-09
Usher was very good in this movie. This movie shows that even kids have a voice and want to be heard. i really enjoy watching it and i would recommend anyone who likes movies to get this.
Great. Just Great........2006-02-03
Well, usually I'm not into movies like this. My DVD collection consist of fantasy, comedy, and a little bit of horror. However, this one I just happened to see on tv. It was a instant hit with me. It speaks the truth, and the die hard facts behind it all. It shows you to respect your fellow man, and not just jump to conclusions. It doesn't matter if your black or not, you will feel for this movie. I ain't black, and I did. Acting is great as well.
And I just wanted to note, whoever it was that gave it 1 star seems to be a minor that just likes writing bad reviews. Do notice that all the other reviews are good.
"The Negotiator" with a meaning.......2005-10-21
This is really a great movie, because sometimes we all just want to take a stand, no matter what we have to do, legal or illegal. It even blends a little bit of comedy with the drama. Those kids were stuck inside that highschool that had little heating the classrooms were like icebergs. Usher is a great actor. This is definitely worth watching.
Actually worthy of 10 stars!!.......2005-10-12
This is a must see for anyone who works with or has any dealings with young people. It will help you remember not to judge a book by the cover. To help our young people become all they were created to be, we need to start showing them that we believe in them and know they have what it takes to be successful adults. If you see a young person who seems to be hurting, reach out to him or her. You'd be amazed at what a smile or a hug can do for someone who feels noone cares.
Good movie.......2005-03-07
It was actually EXCELLENT. It has my man Usher in it incl. the whole cast Rosario Dawson, Vanessa Williams, Forest Whitaker, Sara Gilbert, Fredro Starr (he's bad), the whole list goes on and on.
I was laughin' to death when a lot of craziness goin' on inside the movies from the guns poppin, the police chasin', a lotta people gettin' out of the school 'cuz of emergency, lot of mad talkin and fussin' goin on and all that other s**t. Y'know what I mean. Anyway the list goes on and on.
This is similar to those that don't like gangsta rap nor hip-hop/rap, mainstream music, soundtracks, gangsta movies, or whatever it is, it doesn't matter. I believe it's telling us to watch out 'cuz a lotta people are watching us.
For fans that love Menace II Society, Lean on Me, Stand and Deliver, Dangerous Minds, Jason's Lyric, Above the Rim, Boyz in the Hood, The Temptations, the TV show CHEATERS or JERRY SPRINGER (which I watched to this day), New Jack City, Malcolm X, etc. must check it out 'cuz it shoulda won a Academy Award.
Congrats for Usher for making a good film. He should deserve it.

It makes sorrowful sense that a 1999 revision (albeit unofficial) of John Hughes's The Breakfast Club would involve guns on a high school campus, a children's crusade fought on the Internet, a handful of adolescents imprisoned by their fight-or-flight reputations in the inner city, and... oh yes, Judd Nelson. Nelson, who played the heavy-metal lout from a violent home in The Breakfast Club, shows up here as a hip history instructor named Knowles, so committed to his students in deplorable classroom circumstances that he leads them to friendlier digs off-campus and is suspended for his efforts.
Already outraged about an earlier run-in with a high-strung security guard (Forest Whitaker)--who later pulls a gun on the most harmless kid at school--young Lester (Usher Raymond) wounds the guard, leads a takeover of the building, and oversees authorship of an online manifesto explaining his actions. While supporters, detractors, and cops jockey for position outside, Lester and his fellow rebels, a perfect mix of teenage archetypes who normally would have little to do with one another, unburden their souls. The Hughes Effect kicks in as Lester reveals that his decent father was killed by racist cops, that a Sal Mineo-type (Robert Richards) is beaten at home, that a pregnant girl (Sara Gilbert) wasn't even kissed by the creep she slept with, etc. Writer-director Craig Bolotin, unlike Hughes, can't persuade us to overlook the convenient symmetries and complementary struggles among his outcasts. Everything begins to feel forced after awhile, heading toward a prefabricated finish, though Bolotin's good intentions are not without some emotional impact. --Tom Keogh
Description
In his dazzling leading-role debut, Usher Raymond (Billboard's "Star Of The Year") plays Lester, the troubled teen who has finally been pushed to his limit. Taking matters into their own hands, Lester and his friends hold a police officer (Forest Whitaker) hostage and barricade themselves inside the school. Negotiator Audrey McDonald (Vanessa L. Williams) struggles to maintain peace while tensions simmer inside. As the crisis builds, "The Lincoln Six" discover talents they didn't know they had as their fight to expose dismal classroom conditions gains national attention. Starring "a cast of gifted newcomers" (Roger Ebert, Chicago Sun-Times), this powerful and uplifting film lit up audiences around the nation.

A Must See Movie.......2007-02-09
Usher was very good in this movie. This movie shows that even kids have a voice and want to be heard. i really enjoy watching it and i would recommend anyone who likes movies to get this.
Great. Just Great........2006-02-03
Well, usually I'm not into movies like this. My DVD collection consist of fantasy, comedy, and a little bit of horror. However, this one I just happened to see on tv. It was a instant hit with me. It speaks the truth, and the die hard facts behind it all. It shows you to respect your fellow man, and not just jump to conclusions. It doesn't matter if your black or not, you will feel for this movie. I ain't black, and I did. Acting is great as well.
And I just wanted to note, whoever it was that gave it 1 star seems to be a minor that just likes writing bad reviews. Do notice that all the other reviews are good.
"The Negotiator" with a meaning.......2005-10-21
This is really a great movie, because sometimes we all just want to take a stand, no matter what we have to do, legal or illegal. It even blends a little bit of comedy with the drama. Those kids were stuck inside that highschool that had little heating the classrooms were like icebergs. Usher is a great actor. This is definitely worth watching.
Actually worthy of 10 stars!!.......2005-10-12
This is a must see for anyone who works with or has any dealings with young people. It will help you remember not to judge a book by the cover. To help our young people become all they were created to be, we need to start showing them that we believe in them and know they have what it takes to be successful adults. If you see a young person who seems to be hurting, reach out to him or her. You'd be amazed at what a smile or a hug can do for someone who feels noone cares.
Good movie.......2005-03-07
It was actually EXCELLENT. It has my man Usher in it incl. the whole cast Rosario Dawson, Vanessa Williams, Forest Whitaker, Sara Gilbert, Fredro Starr (he's bad), the whole list goes on and on.
I was laughin' to death when a lot of craziness goin' on inside the movies from the guns poppin, the police chasin', a lotta people gettin' out of the school 'cuz of emergency, lot of mad talkin and fussin' goin on and all that other s**t. Y'know what I mean. Anyway the list goes on and on.

Say It Isn't So is touted as being from the Farelly brothers, who wrote and directed the movies Dumb and Dumber, Kingpin, and There's Something About Mary. And though they didn't write or direct this movie, it certainly has the same elements: charming lead actors (in this case, Heather Graham from Austin Powers: The Spy Who Shagged Me and Chris Klein from Election and American Pie) put through all sorts of comic grotesqueries, ranging from having an ear cut off to getting a hand stuck up a cow's rectum. Orphaned dogcatcher Gilly (Klein) and incompetent hairdresser Jo (Graham) fall in love, only to discover that Gilly's long-lost mother is Jo's own white trash momma (played with gusto by Sally Field). Unfortunately, they'd already slept together, so Jo flees in shame to go back to her ex-boyfriend in Beaver, Oregon. But when Jo's real brother shows up, Gilly sets out to win Jo back--only her mom wants her to marry the ex and tells the Beaver police that Gilly is a sexual predator. Say It Isn't So doesn't have the crude wit of There's Something About Mary, but there are several laugh-out-loud moments, and both Graham and Klein are sweet and engaging. Orlando Jones has a zestful turn as a legless seaplane pilot. --Bret Fetzer
Description
Boy meets girl. Boy loves girl. Boy discovers girl may be his sister. (Boy, this could be trouble.) To make matters worse, by the time he discovers "it isn't so," he has precious little time to stop the woman of his dreams from marrying another man. It's shameless romantic comedy at its finest produced by the twisted minds behind There's Something About Mary and Me Myself & Irene!
Customer Reviews:
Fixing down.......2007-09-12
Despite all the gross-out jokes, this winds up being a fairly endearing romantic comedy. Though it is odd watching Sally Field in such a sleazy role.
Good for a laugh.......2007-06-27
This movie is funny. Is it a classic? No. But good for a laugh from a person who is in need of putting the brain in neutral and laughing at visual and adult sexual material (not hard core). A person taking themselves very seriously would not enjoy this video, but someone with a sense of humor and open mind will laugh out loud at the antics.
Surprisingly funn!.......2007-03-15
We rented this movie the other day because we didnt know of anything else to rent and to my surprise, it was hilarious! I would definetly buy it!
This film is retarded!.......2006-02-14
How can anyone watch this piece of crap film? Yeah Heather Graham is hot but the film sucks and I don't like Chris Klein. This is the worst movie I ever seen. Do not watch it!
Good Clean Incestuous Fun.......2005-10-08
"Say It Isn't So" isn't a non-stop laugh riot like "There's Something About Mary," but it's definitely right up there on the hilarity scale with Farrelly Brothers' films like "Dumb and Dumber" and "Kingpin." What really makes this movie is the supporting cast. Orlando Jones (a.k.a. The 7-up Guy) as "Dig," the pontoon plane-piloting double amputee, and Sally Field (a.k.a. Gidget) as Heather Graham's foul-mouthed, conniving mother, got me laughing out loud at least a dozen times. Heather Graham looks great, as usual, but is basically relegated to the "straight man's" role. Chris Klein, though, emotes exactly the bumbling, sympathetic humor that made his performance in "Election" so great. He has a real comedic talent for playing an unlucky, Chaplin-esque everyman that we can all love, even when he has his arm stuck up a cow's butt.

Description
Chris Johnson is a young woman full of dreams. She;s in a musical group called Har-Mo-Ny that can really carry a tune. These three divas work at the local car wash awaiting their big break. With an underscore of a disc jockey looking for an opening act for the Comedy Tour, a folly of characters from the runners of the crap game, thew sports fanatics, the patrons of the car wash add flavor to the movie. Just when you think everything is said and done, you get hit with a twist of fate that will put you in the back of your seat!
