Wassup Rockers 20 reviews Jonathan Velasquez, Francisco Pedrasa
First Look Pictures, 2006
Anothing fine film from Larry Clark
+ much more interesting than you might expect + about DVDfilm/movie Wassup Rockers..............
This movie is different than previous Clark efforts, mainly in that it's tame enough for an R rating. There's no on-screen sex, nor adolescent nudity, and the profanity is nothing out of the ordinary. I'm saying this up front because if one surveys, say, rottentomatoes.com reviews, you would think ...

The Foul King 7 reviews Doo-hong Jung, Ka-Yeon Kim
Tai Seng, 2004
Witty & Fresh!
+ Fun and funny,...what a comedy SHOULD be! + funny stuff
Being a huge admirer of Asian cinema and pro wrestling, I picked up "The Foul King" with few expectations; I was curious how a comedy about pro wrestling in South Korea would play out, especially years after South Korea's glory days of the pop-sport have come and gone. For many of us Americanos who ...

Ali - The Director's Cut 162 reviews Will Smith, Jon Voight
Sony Pictures, 2004
Float like a butterfy, sting like a bee.
+ Good film that could have been great
Ali DVD
Will Smith is eerily like Ali. It's like Cassiuss Clay is playing himself. I remember watching Clay fight in the Olympics and Smith has him down pat. I'd admired Ali for being willing to go to prison for his convictions instead of fleeing to Canada like all the other bed-wetting, ...

Running With Scissors 95 reviews Annette Bening, Brian Cox
Sony Pictures, 2007
A non stop nostalgic "Manic" blast
+ Nightmare On Shrink Street
Running with Scissors has become one of my favorite movies.
It's characters are as colorful as a box of crayola crayons and twice as fun.
The story is heartbreaking as well as heart warming,all set to a fantastic Seventies Soundtrack.
It's hard to pick out a Stand out because their all so ...

9 songs - Unrated Full Uncut Version 91 reviews Kieran O'Brien, Margo Stilley
Tartan Video, 2005
HOT!
+ Porn in disguise... but good porn (and good disguise!). + MICHAEL WINTERBOTTOM, OPUS 13
Sex, nakedness & rock music - what else could you want?
I thought this movie was simple - it cut through all the filler you normally find in porn movies - unnecessary dialog, weak storyline etc... it go straight to the point - this is a movie about SEX & ROCK & ROLL & they abound :)
I thought ...

Walking Tall 114 reviews The Rock, Johnny Knoxville
MGM (Video & DVD), 2004
Rock solid action!
+ Walking Tall + Good Movie
This is one film where you'll that the Rock sure can act. He plays a Army Officer named Chris Vaughn who has come home to find the town full of corruption and greed. Its a great film even though its rather short just running under eighty minutes. Here the Rock (Dwayne Johnson) starts to clean up ...

Unless the movie show many strange behavior about the Japan culture, the director make a great rescue in the Fast & Furios sequel.
Great CGI and photo shoot work, make this work to enjoy a good action movie.
The bonus in the DVD, show a good work and have complete material to learn the tricks ...

Saw III (Unrated Widescreen Edition) 168 reviews Tobin Bell, Shawnee Smith
Lionsgate, 2007
The Epic Saw Film!!!
+ Saw 3 times as disturbing + Pretty bloody good, for beating a dead horse (or pig)
To me, Saw III is more epic because it's longer and has more soap opera elements to Amanda and Jigsaw's character. Tobin Bell does another awesome job as Jigsaw, who is now on his death bed. Jigsaw has Lynn kidnapped and brought to him so he can stay alive long enough to see if Jeff makes it ...
