Not funny at all
22 November 2018
Warning: Spoilers
A Ken Jeong movie should be hilarious. Killing Hasselhoff is an absolute disaster with no laughs whatsoever. The only good part was the few seconds where we get to see Irina Voronina sunbathing topless. She has lovely boobs... That's about it. Bye!

SuperFly (2018)
1/10
This movie will attract flies... Super flies... because this movie...
15 June 2018
Warning: Spoilers
...Super stinks!

What is the point of all the remakes? What's next? Titanic? "This time, the ship doesn't sink because there are no icebergs thanks to global warming"... And wait for the dubstep music as Pjagck and Rowsche (with the modern douchebag spelling of normal names) twerk and do doggystyle in the ship's parking garage.

Ron O'Neal was Youngblood Priest. Carl Lee was Eddie. Curtis Mayfield was the maestro behind the soundtrack. Together they made the original, proper Superfly.

The 2018 remake is just as appealing as chewing already chewed gum.

Star Trek: Discovery (2017–2024)
5/10
No Star Trek veteran production crew here
25 September 2017
Warning: Spoilers
I looked at the entire production crew for Discovery, but could not see a familiar name from DS9 or VOY...should that tell me something? At least 'The Orville' has got Penny Johnson & Brannon Braga.

It is obvious in Discovery, the 'Klingons' are going to be the bad guy... Seriously? I would've thought the writers would have had more originality. Given the Klingons are tolerable to the Federation in TOS, the ending of the Discovery series is already out in the open (i.e., Klingons become the good guys in the end). I hope there will be plot twist, but that'd be too much to ask for.

I still can't get over how the Klingons look. There were Klingon females in DS9/VOY that were pretty hot and tempting... But here? Not in the least. Also, the Klingons look quite docile, and seem to talk 3/4 words at a time with a raspy voice at great difficulty - nothing like the hyper-tense/angry/proud behaviour I saw in the other series.

I was also hoping to hear some familiar character names/continuities other than 'Sarek', but was disappointed.

I guess 'Discovery' is only aimed at the iPhone generation who has never seen any of the other Star Trek franchises. Remember that Futurama scene 'Way to kill the franchise, Bakula'? Could it be 'Yeoh' or 'Martin-Green' instead? Too early to tell, but prognosis is not looking good.

Reba: Pilot (2001)
Season 1, Episode 1
4/10
Can be considered funny if you're a bible thumping redneck
2 September 2017
Warning: Spoilers
Here's a scenario:

You slept around with your secretary and, as a result, are recently divorced. You also help around with the local high school football team.

You and your ex-wife find out, on the eve of a big football game, the star quarterback impregnated your teenage daughter. Upon learning this, you & your ex-wife:

a). Begin to form excuses like "Well.... he is the star quarterback" b). Quickly plan a marriage ceremony for your daughter c). Listen to your preggo teen daughter's fantasies about wanting this & that for the wedding and seriously consider when she says she wants to drop out of high school d). Get her an abortion

If you answered a or b or c, and can find humour in this situation and further develop on this over several seasons, keep watching this show.

If you answered d, don't watch this show... Instead, watch Roseanne.

The Grand Tour (2016–2024)
6/10
C+.... could do better
16 August 2017
Warning: Spoilers
Top Gear was Top Gear because the big three was at it without sticking to a script.

The Grand Tour has the three following a script that you find funny if you're in kindergarten...

For next season, please fix these issues:

1. Just give them a challenge and follow them as they try to solve it WITHOUT A SCRIPT... can't stress how important this is

2. Get rid of the 'Celebrity Brain Crash' segment... It was funny the first (maybe the second) time... but, it is now way past its expiration date

3. Get a decent racetrack... Jeff Bezos is now the richest man in the world (as of August 1, 2017)... You're telling me you can't find/rent/build a racetrack where you can redline a Ferrari?

4. Stop moving the tent all over the world... I know it's the "Grand Tour"... that doesn't mean you have to move around the world... Just have the filming done at a fixed location. That way people can relate to the show (because, let's face it... a majority of the viewers are those who followed the Three from BBC, and are expecting to see some familiar segments from Top Gear)... You can then send the Three all over the world solving challenges

5. Get rid of the 'American'... HE IS NOT FUNNY and does not add anything to the show except a lap time on a lame racetrack

6. Let James May be the eco-pedantic-logical character that he naturally is... In the eco-friendly challenge, I would've expected James to drive the 'Garden Car', Hammond to drive the 'Bone Car' and Jezza to dig up the country side trying to build a 'Brick Car'... LET THE THREE BE WHO THEY NATURALLY ARE

7. Get rid of the 'American'... HE IS NOT FUNNY

8. Conversation corner should be more about cars with the usual Jezza comments... you know, the comments he used to make to get all the angry phone calls to BBC?

....As I said in the review.. C+ could (AND SHOULD) do better

They shouldn't have retaliated
12 April 2013
Warning: Spoilers
I watched this in 3D. It just sucked in an extra dimension. No storyline, no depth, no character build up and no purpose. Dwayne Johnson got beat up by a pensioner. That's how stupid this movie is.

Question to script writers. You capture a criminal hell bent on killing everyone everywhere. What do you do? Don't f'in put them in prison where they'll eventually break free. Just bust a cap in their heads.

I watched G I Joe growing up (the cartoons), and each half an hour episode had more balls than this .

Only highlight is the girl in the movie changes clothes and you get to see her in black Victoria's Secret lingerie. You can see her bubble butt. That's it.

To add insult to injury the chili cheese dog I ate during the movie gave my stomach the gurgles. It was a rip-off for $5.99.

$14 for the movie and $6 for runny craps. I should have spent that on a six pack. Would have been a better investment.

Vikings hate Arab, Vikings learn to live with Arab, Vikings love Arab.....
26 March 2011
Warning: Spoilers
Sounds like a twisted plot for a Disney movie, right? Well, Disney? Thank God, no!... Twisted? .....mmmmeh, you could say that! Antonio Bandares, aka Ibn/Little Brother, is a ladies man/playboy (Hugh Hefner minus the wrinkles and viagra, pretty much) in his Arab country.

He was thinking of stuffing the village chief's wife's gander when the chief finds out and banishes him indirectly by sending him on a tour of the world as an ambassador to learn different cultures... This is, of course, a long long time before oil in the Middle East and the 'you-know-who-hiding-in-caves' lunacy.....

Then, Tony's bandwagon comes across vikings and get drafted to travel to a land far away to battle a great evil who shall not be mentioned - apart from the time just now.

If you've seen my other reviews, you know I don't BS.... Take my word for it.. This is a very, very, very good movie for a Friday night. Watch it.. watch it now!!

Top Gear Australia (2008–2012)
7/10
POWEEERRRRRRRRRRRR (this time in kilowatts!!)
22 March 2011
Warning: Spoilers
When reviewing Top Gear USA (TGUSA) I said that watching that show was like chewing gum that's already been chewed and stuck under a bench in the New York Grand Central Station for an year.

What TGUSA lacks in every department, Top Gear Australia (TGA) makes up with wit and chemistry that is only second to that of the Top Gear UK (TGUK) cast.

The first few episodes were a bit shaky with that old guy and the guy with the Village-People-moustache, but after 2 seasons and some reshuffling I think they have come up with a setup that totally has potential.

Unlike in the USA, they actually have "wilderness" and "unexplored land" in Australia, which have been shown to be good sources for driving challenges, and some of the segments were original - like driving a V8 touring car in city streets and driving tiny three wheeled cars into a safari park (ok, TGUK did a similar one too - but the UK cast didn't get surrounded by lions or charged by a mommy-rhino or get crapped on by monkeys with red asses!!!) Also, the seal of approval for the TGA was given by the TGUK in the "Top Gear Ashes" episode...

So, hope for promising future for this show.

The Fog (2005)
2/10
What the fog was that?
28 February 2011
Warning: Spoilers
1. At the end of "Jurassic Park," the few that survives find out that by uttering the words "Nanny, nanny, nanny-boo-boo" the dinosaurs can be trained to dance to disco music.

2. At the end of "Robocop," the OCP realizes the reason why Robocop was acting like a robot was because he is pregnant.

3. At the end of "Lost," the viewers find out that everything happened so far was meaningless and that they've wasted their lives worrying about a way out of the hole that the show's writers have dug themselves.

(Well, the last one is true - but..) Throw in the ending of "The Fog" to this list, and you'd think I'd gone mad... But no! This is how ridiculous "The Fog" is. It does not make sense... I watched this movie almost an year ago, and I've been waiting all this time to see if this movie makes sense, and it does not.

They say for something to be art, it has to have no other purpose but to exist. If that's the case, we are screwed.

There is another movie about this weather phenomenon, "The Mist," which is an infinite times better... Watch that one and not this.

Machete (2010)
8/10
If you told me 7 years ago that Lindsay Lohan would do what she did in this movie, I'd call you a liar!!!
6 February 2011
Warning: Spoilers
Where can you find a girl pulling out a smartphone hidden in her lady-place, the lovely Jessica Alba and the (uhh...) Lindsay Lohan naked AND the lovely Michelle Rodriguez selling Tacos? Except for the weird dream I had last night, the answer would be "Machete." I only watched this movie because of the cult-like fan base that has begun to sprout around it. If you know that Danny Trejo is going to be in a movie, with a few exceptions like 'Spy Kids,' you know that it's only going to be action, and that's what this movie is...

Machete (Trejo) is an ex-Federale who's life was turned upside down by a drug kin-pin (Seagal). (You've probably heard that Segal is a tall man. But, in this movie, his height is actually put into perspective, and let me tell ya... He is one tall S.O.B.) So, he escapes to good ol' Uncle Sam's backyard and lives the life of an illegal immigrant. But, he now has to deal with a governor who is basically like a Mini-Me Dubya and a bunch of redneck Xenophobic Texans, whose ultimate goal is to build a fence (at least on the surface) to stop the illegal boarder crossings...

Obviously, Machete gets in the middle and queue the BANG-BANGs, the SLICE-SLICEs, the PFFFT-PFFFTs (of blood spurting out, that is), and the 70's funk porn music....! That's right! In this world, Trejo is a ladies' man!! Danny Trejo get's kissed by Jessica Alba, Lindsay Lohan's mother (not the real one, but a character), and Lindsay Lohan.

Man, I'd love to have been at Alba's contract negotiation room and Lohan's negotiation room. The producers must have been like "Alba, we'll pay you a million bucks extra if you kiss Trejo" and "Lohan, if you want to be in this movie, kiss Trejo"....ROFLMAO.....

Either way, this movie is no way an Oscar winning collection of scenes. But, it's just an action movie with some humor in it. It's kind of like Kill Bill. But instead of Thurman you have Trejo, and instead of deep dialogues you have Jessica Alba naked in the shower and Lindsay Lohan naked in the pool...

So, for action, this movie gets a 4/10. The other 3.999999/10 comes from Jessica Alba and Michelle Rodriguez, and the rest, from Lohan...

Recommendation? Good movie for a guy's night out.... and wait a couple of weeks for it's DVD to appear in the less than $10 box in your local superstore...

Top Gear USA (2008–2016)
1/10
Stewie meets Colin Ferrel - but with cars and way less funny
11 December 2010
Warning: Spoilers
OK, I get it. They've got a Top Gear in the ♪land down undie♪ and, of course, THE ONE in the UK. So, why not start one here in the US, too, right? NYYAAAAAAAGGGH!!!! Wrong!! Guess again!!! They've got Aezza, Captain Crunch and Tanster and, wait for it.... the Stig. WOW. How original, right? I've seen the first and the second episodes, and each time, I could only take at most 2 minutes of continuous watching, where the rest was spent fast forwarding.

I've seen every single original Top Gear (TGUK) episode and the US version (TGUS) were pretty much cheaper copies. Episode 1 was a rip off of the TGUK scene where a Lotus Elise raced against an Apache. Episode 2 was a rip off of the TGUK scene where a blind man drove around the Top Gear Track faster than Terry Wogen, and the scene where Hammond raced an Audi A6 in Verbier against two skiers. I won't watch this anymore because I can't take it.

I'm pretty sure in the future, if there is such a thing for this show, they'll get a chihuahua named Top Gear Dog and have an Awesome Corner where they rank cars from "Stinks," "Sucks," "Alright," to "Hells Yeah" based on what Angelina Jolie would do if you come to pick her up in that car.

Every car TGUS has reviewed so far has been well covered by TGUK. When reviewing the Aston Martin V12 Vantage, they said that that was "hot rodding" the V8 Vantage, which was like fingernails on the chalkboard.

TGUS lacks originality, delivery and is painful to watch.

Save yourselves a lot of trouble. Go buy the original Top Gear Series DVDs and watch them as many times as you want, because watching Top Gear US is like eating gum that's already been chewed... and stuck under a bench... in the New York Grand Central Station... and left for an year... yep...

Full Body Massage (1995 TV Movie)
8/10
I love boobies, I love boobies, I love boobies, 'cause I'm a big kid now!!!
6 September 2010
In this movie, Mimi Rogers is naked!

Mimi Rogers plays a successful art gallery owner who gets weekly full body massages to relieve her 'tensions' (pun definitely intended). Her usual masseuse skips out and sends in this other guy who talks and talks and talks while, wait for it, massaging Mimi's body.

This is as deep as the plot gets. But, if one is watching this movie, that is not the least of their concern. Because, in this movie, Mimi Rogers is naked!!

She, a voluptuous woman (38D-26-36!!!!), gets all oiled up, and you can fully see her buttocks and breasts, which get massaged for a long time, and guess what? They are real! Now, some of you might be wondering why I keep talking about Mimi Rogers's body - which is naked in this movie, by the way. That's because this is an erotic movie, and that's all there is to it.

There has not been an erotic movie with a plot of reasonable depth other than 'Kama Sutra,'and 'Full Body Massage' proves this point.

My review of this movie would have been 2/10, but thanks to Mimi Rogers, who is naked in this movie, it gets an 8/10. Keep in mind that just 3 years after this movie, Mimi Rogers wears a body-hugging spacesuit in 'Lost in Space,' which is a family movie... (awkward)

Full Body Massage is an erotic movie with Mimi Rogers, who shows that perfection can be achieved without plastic surgery, and it's a must see for all fans (erotic movie fans and Mimi Rogers fans).

3rd Rock from the Sun (1996–2001)
10/10
Glorious and something, something, hum dili didili da dee doo da.. SPACESHIP
14 August 2010
Warning: Spoilers
"When beetles fight these battles in a bottle with their paddles, and the bottle's in a poodle and the poodle's eating noodles, they call this a muddle puddle tweedle poodle beetle noodle bottle paddle battle.... This man's a genius." - Dick Solomon -

Four aliens. One semi-alcoholic lover. A sarcastic assistant. A cowardly incompetent but lovable cop. A nymphomaniac land lady. An even more nymphomaniac land lady's daughter. William Shatner! The above statements sumarize everything that is 3rd Rock from the Sun, and it is, for the lack of better word, it's GORGEOUS.

From covering various topics, ranging from catching a cold to fighting a rival alien from home planet to win the heart of one's wee-body-lass, this show has hit every single apex in the racetrack that is a comedy show.

True that this show has a few sex-oriented humour, so what? Panic, chaos, compassion, love, laughter, tears, doing-the-worst-possible-thing-while-trying-to-do-the-best, more panic, thermal-bond-epoxy, and even more panic are somethings this show knows well about.

Surprisingly, a majority of the dialogue that discusses physics are actually sound. And to see the students in the class dumb-founded is simply hilarious.

This is a must see, and a must see again and again for all.
