This movie was better than I expected, and I expected a lot. Eddie Murphy and Martin Lawrence are great together. They play off of each other really well. Bernie Mac is funny too. I wish he would have had more scenes. This movie chronicles the life of two strangers who come to know each other in prison. The older that Murphy and Lawrence get, the funnier they get. Eddie Murphy is truly great as an old man. If you see only one movie this summer......SEE EPISODE I, but if you see two then give life a go. It will keep you in stitches, that is, if you have a sense of humor.

It does not get much funnier than this.
31 March 1999
If you are reading this, then chances are that you have already seen the show and just want to know what everyone else has to say. Well I think that this is one of the funniest shows of all time. The writers of this show are not afraid to offend anyone. They will go anywhere for a laugh, that is why this show works. I have only seen a handful of episodes, but have really enjoyed all that I have seen. Cartman is irresistible. This tub of lard is really funny. How can you not love a kid who steals food from a starving ethiopian. By the way, he makes an excellent cop, don't you think? "You will respect my A-thor-I-Ti!!". Anyway, long live Trey and Matt (The creators of the show).

It's not Seinfeld, but what is?
25 March 1999
People have compared this show to Seinfeld. There is only one Seinfeld!! I did, however, enjoy the pilot. I think once the viewers become more comfortable with the characters, this show could be a hit. Jennifer Gray is looking good these days. It's crazy what a new nose can do for a girl. I think it is funny that she plays herself. That is just crazy! Shrug, the bald head guy, is funny. The guys in this show treat money like it was gum. "Don't I owe you $50,000?". This question was actually asked. If you have not seen the show, give it a chance and make up your own mind.
Billy Madison
(1995)
Love him or hate him, this movie is typical Adam Sandler
25 March 1999
It does not get much funnier than this movie. Adam Sandler is one of the funniest movie stars currently. Billy (sandler) is trying to prove to his father that he is capable of taking over his 5 star Hotel chain. To prove this, Billy needs to complete grades 1-12 all over again. Billy is a complete idiot. He loves nothing more than getting drunk, and well getting drunk I guess. Norm Macdonald and Chris Farley have small roles, but they make the best of it. Farley is great as the crazy bus driver. If you have seen this movie: How did he get his face that red? I find myself wanting to quote the movie from beginning to end but I don't want ruin it if you have not seen it. Bottom line: Rent Billy Madison tonight if you want a laugh. If you like Billy Madison, then you might want to check out The Waterboy, Happy Gilmore, The Wedding Singer, or any thing that Sandler is in. Rock on.

This show is sure to be a hit!!
24 March 1999
I have just watched the pilot, and I am positive that this show will be a hit. I am a big Norm Macdonald fan, and could not stop laughing during the pilot. This show is Norm at his best. If you liked "Dirty Work", or Norm on SNL, then give this show a chance. One of the funniest lines on the show is when he (Norm) is trying to convince a young call girl to stop turning tricks. After Laurie Metcalf told the girl that nothing is sadder than a seventy year-old prostitute, Norm replies "yeah, you don't want to have to take your teeth out 30-40 times a day". Long live Norm!!
