Then it bloomed. I loved this movie. Others have commented on how unrealistic it was ... maybe, and maybe not. I like to think some lives shift like this everyday and perhaps mine is in the line-up somewhere. The characters were believable and the actors delightfully normal-looking - definitely not a Hollywood version of this story. Bravo!

The best of Kevin Smith - VERY FUNNY
2 April 2002
This is a great movie that I can watch over and over and enjoy more with each viewing - truly a wonderful example of untarnished creativity. The dialog and headliners include some hefty vocabulary - you may need a dictionary if you are not well-schooled, but the people are real beyond anything outside of a documentary. Not for the faint of heart re language and sex.
Mr. Wrong
(1996)
I love it!

I guess you have to have lived through this kind of stuff to get the outrageous humor! Terrifically done - Bill Pullman is hilarious as is Degeneres...Joan Cusack and her sidekick were FUNNY and Walter a perfect fit. If you have pretty normal relationships forget it but if you have had to deal with some pretty weird partnerships - give it a try. I bought it because I enjoy watching it once in a while. My kids 11 and 13 loved it, too.
The 10th Kingdom
(2000)
This is one of my favorite movies

It has everything - an excellent fantasy storyline, wonderful actors, humor, romance, adventure - truly a wonderful epic. Daniel Lapaine, Scott Cohen, Kimberly Williams, John Larroquette - all perfect for their parts! Watch it and see if you can resist falling in love...

Brilliant but disturbing

Extraordinary flick with a disturbingly realistic portrayal of a life gone very wrong in the wake of a life-changing accident...exquisitely done. Prepare to be deeply effected by storytelling at its best. However, I would not want to watch it again.
Mumford
(1999)
I love this movie

This is a just a plain old feel-good movie with lots of texture to it. The characters are believable and touched me deeply - I felt like I would like to know them for another few movies. One I could watch over and over if I watched the tube that much (which I don't). Agreat one for young teens as well.
The 10th Kingdom

Hey Hurrah!

This mini series is funny, sweet, romantic, exciting and has some surprising twists, my children (ages 10-13) enjoyed it as well, my daughter is now *in love* with Scott Cohen so to speak as I am as well! see it if you have the time to watch something 7hrs long, because believe me it is worth it! 10/10!
Mr. Wrong

I found this movie very funny!!

It started out so slow but halfway through it became absolutely hilarious. Definitely a chick flick for fans of oddities like Titus! I have watched it several times and find it just as funny as the first time. I guess, like Titus (the tv show) , you have to have experienced it to see the humor. If you have ever had someone seem so right who turned out to be so persistent and WRONG you may enjoy Mr. Wrong.
Oldie but goodie

I never saw this in the 60's though I was of an age to...just saw it the other night on television and only watched it for Buster Keaton, whom I have recently developed a great joy in seeing. I enjoyed the whole thing...silly, (sexest,yes, a movie of the 60's), funny stuff. My kids aged 10 and 12 really enjoyed it, too.
The Cameraman
(1928)
Buster was ahead of his time

These old silents are the true man - this one the last of his best. Don't even begin to think that if you have seen him in any of his talkies you know his style. These silents are FUNNY! As with all his silents there is also the heartache of the loner seeking to belong and assert his right to be. He was king of slapstick with depth.
The Navigator
(1924)
This is one that is funnier the more you see it
8 November 2000
I didn't really think it was so funny till my kids kept watching it over and over - it just got funnier and funnier - the scene with the picture flung from the side of the boat is only one of those that keep us laughing. One of our favorite Keaton's.
Three Ages
(1923)
One of our Keaton favorites
8 November 2000
This movie is really funny!! The General is Keaton's finest work but there are many of his works that are more hilarious - in this one are multiple sight gags and creative humor. We watch it over and over and it only seems to get funnier!
The Goat
(1921)
One of his funniest shorts!
8 November 2000
This is one you can watch over and over and laugh just as much each time. We have been on a Keaton fest around here after purchasing some of his films. In this one Buster is mistaken for an escaped murderer and there are lots of chase scenes and crazy scenes but also what is best about Buster - his creativity. The opening scene is really funny and it just keeps going from there.
