For a comedy film, the movie We�re No Angels really doesn�t produce many laughs.
Robert DeNiro and Sean Penn put in a valiant effort, but the weak script and the even weaker concept really doesn�t work. You can only make so many jokes at the expense of the church …

“Bubble” is directed by Stephen Soderbergh. Soderbergh is the brillian mind behind such films as “Sex, Lies and Videotapes” and “Traffic”. Whats sad about this is that “Bubble” Is terrible. I’m not sure how a great director can go from hollywood blockbusters to bombing …

If there is one book on a cultural setting that I like the most, it would be “Memoirs of a Geisha” by Arthur Golden. Aside from its compelling story, its precise-to-detail description of the flower and willow world in Japan is superb.

Redbox, for those that don’t know what it is, are those big red movie vending machines that can be found at most Wal-Marts, Walgreens, gas stations and McDonalds. They’re basically everywhere. Sometimes you’ll find two of them in one location if they get a lot of business. Whoever invented …

Hard Cash with Christian Slater, Val Kilmer, Daryl Hannah, Verne Troyer, and Sara Downing.

From 2009, it’s Robert Downey Jr. starring in Sherlock Holmes and playing the well-known sleuth. Here are a few of my observations.

Between 1998 and 2000 the Upright Citizens Brigade were one of the funniest sketch shows on TV. In fact the only sketch show that comes to mind that could match (and often times beat) the UCB for creativity or humor was HBO’s Mr. Show with Bob and David.
Unfortunately …
