Ike & Adley Rule!
22 February 2002 - 7 out of 10 users found this review helpful.
This is my favorite movie of all time. I've probably watched it more than 100 times and it just keeps getting better. The more you watch it the more the humor comes out. Here are some of my favorite parts:
- The hardware store guy cutting off the tip of his finger while trimming his finger nails with hedge trimmers after being startled by the girls.
- Ike & Adley "Bagging" girls.
- Ma's wardrobe.
- Ike & Adley eating breakfast (Trix) out of a galvanized steel bucket with a huge ladle.
- The whole "Disco Sucks/ Punk's Stupid Debate.
- The whole girls tied to excercise equipment sequence especially this exchange:
TRINA to IKE: You backwards perverted piece if s**t. ANGRY IKE: Don't you ever call me backwards again. Look around. Were citified.
- Ma yelling at the boys (and making them start over) for allowing Abbey to get one of her hands free while being raped.
- The parody of the self improvement seminar Ma is in at the start of the movie.
- Ma's description of her sister Queenie:
She snapped my neck while I was still in the crib...she was born with a full head of white hair...I've seen her chase down wolves and rip their throats out just to watch them bleed.
- All the grafitti spray painted throughout the house.
- Abbey suffocating MA with a huge set of inflatable transparent tits.
- Ike and Adley get up in the morning. Big Bird Alarm Clock: "Wake up sleepy heads Bigbird says it's time to get up". Ike proceeds to brush his teeth with beer, pick at his messy hair with a switchblade, and spray deoderant on thru his shirt.
Absolutely great film.
