KING KONG = 4 stars ****

I know you pretentious assholes had galactic expectations for this movie, but I didn’t, and I thought it was pretty fuckin cool. Sure they blew most of their special effects budget on Kong, and the rest of it looks like a video game but so fuckin what, it’s still better than 90% of all [...]

CRY_WOLF = 1 star *

I guess I’m just giving them the 1 star because the idea was kinda interesting how you don’t know who’s actually a victim or who is just “crying wolf” so it’s not as predictable as every other shitty teen horror flick. But the whole cross-marketing bullshit of the killer stalking these prep school kids [...]

PRETTY PERSUASION = 2.5 stars **1/2

Some obviously gay writer and/or director made a campy movie about a conniving teen girl who wants to be famous so bad she creates a sex scandal at her posh Beverly Hills prep school just to get press. The writing is decent, Evan Rachel Wood (Thirteen, The Missing) plays the main character easily and [...]

MUST LOVE DOGS = 1 star *

Diane Lane,…”Under the Tuscan Sun” is my anthem, I’ve seen it 3 times. “Unfaithful” was hot and weird but good. I can’t think of anything else you’ve been in before that but I was so excited for this movie because I love you and I love dogs. John Cusack…you’ve been around forever [...]

BROTHERS GONNA WORK IT OUT DOUBLE FEATURE = FOUR BROTHERS/GRIMM

The Brothers Grimm = 3 stars ***
So I’m not the biggest Terry Gilliam fan in the world, but I’ve seen most of his work and enjoy or at least respect it. I know a lot of you out there think everything he touches turns to gold,…or frankincense or myrrh, so you had only the [...]

HAPPY ENDINGS = 3 stars ***

Maggie Gyllnehaal looks like a haggard grandma who keeps trying to relive her heydays as a burnt-out flapper. She is so fuckin ugly I can’t stand to look at the screen while she is on (Secretary, Mona Lisa’s Smile, etc). I’d rather watch dust settle on my limp dick than watch Maggie [...]

MARCH OF THE PENGUINS = 3 stars ***

Ummmmm….why was this the sleeper hit of the Summer?! I don’t get it. Have people never seen National Geographic before? Isn’t the Discovery Channel a part of every basic cable package? What made this movie so special? Maybe it’s because I was suffering from food poisoning while watching it, but [...]

DIRTY LOVE = 2.5 stars **1/2

I don’t know why I like Jenny McCarthy. I don’t care about tits, I hate Singled Out, and her “gross hot girl” shtick is totally annoying but for some reason beyond my control I still find her funny. This movie was painfully low-budget and Carmen Electra trying to play “ghetto” was excruciating, but [...]

BOSS N’ UP = 1 star *

I’m not sure exactly what “Boss n’ up” means but I’m sure it has to do with being a pimp and being good at turnin your ho’s out. This is some straight to video musical about Snoop Dogg, who works at a grocery store and then becomes a pimp’s apprentice and eventually becomes the [...]

PARIS HILTON: CURRENT LEADER IN THE HOLIDAY PARTY NAPKIN SHOWDOWN

From Sunday night’s Comedy Central Last Laugh ‘05 after-party at the Park Plaza hotel.
Looks like this Holiday New Year cheer is going to be rung in with "Celebrity Endorsed Napkins!". Anyone have a copy of Jessica Simpsons infamous email breaking it off with Nick? We think that would be a classic farewell party favor for [...]
