| Monty Python in The Holy Grail |
The Last Unicorn |
"Could this be the funniest movie ever made? By any rational measure of comedy, this medieval romp from the Monty Python troupe certainly belongs on the short list of candidates. According to Leonard Maltin's Movie & Video Guide, it's "recommended for fans only," but we say hogwash to that--you could be a complete newcomer to the Python phenomenon and still find this send-up of the Arthurian legend to be wet-your-pants hilarious. It's basically a series of sketches woven together as King Arthur's quest for the Holy Grail, with Graham Chapman as the King, Terry Gilliam as his simpleton sidekick, Patsy, and the rest of the Python gang filling out a variety of outrageous roles. The comedy highlights are too numerous to mention, but once you've seen Arthur's outrageously bloody encounter with the ominous Black Knight (John Cleese), you'll know that nothing's sacred in the Python school of comedy. From holy hand grenades to killer bunnies to the absurdity of the three-headed knights who say "Ni--!," this is the kind of movie that will strike you as fantastically funny or just plain silly, but why stop there? It's all over the map, and the pace lags a bit here and there, but for every throwaway gag the Pythons have invented, there's a bit of subtle business or grand-scale insanity that's utterly inspired. The sum of this madness is a movie that's beloved by anyone with a pulse and an irreverent sense of humor. If this movie doesn't make you laugh, you're almost certainly dead."

The Last Unicorn is one of the best animated films ever, in my opinion. It is based on the book by Peter S. Beagle. The unicorn is portrayed more beautifully than any other depiction of a unicorn. When you look at her, she looks nothing like the simple mare with a horn. You can't help but feel she's got something magic about her. She is never called anything but 'the unicorn', so that is what I will call her. Her story begins when she overhears two huntsmen saying that she is the last of the unicorns. She is determined to find the rest of her kind. She sets off into a world where people have forgotten about unicorns. She is captured by the witch Mommy Fortuna. The witch's assistant Schmendrick, a bumbling wizard, frees the unicorn and joins her. Later they are joined by Molly Grue, a jaded woman who has given up her dreams. They make their way to King Haggard's castle, whose Red Bull has captured the unicorns. When the Bull attacks the unicorn, Schmendrick changes her into a human woman. The three stay at King Haggard's castle, where his son Prince Lear falls in love with Amalthea (the unicorn). As she grows less unicorn and more woman, she returns his love and forgets she was ever a unicorn. Schmendrick finally finds the way into the bull's lair. The bull confronts Amalthea again. She is transformed back into a unicorn and flees, while Lear dies trying to protect her. The bull is driving her into the ocean, where the rest of the unicorns are held. At seeing Lear's death, she turns on the bull and instead drives him into the water and sets the unicorns free. Later she restores Lear with her horn and says goodbye to her friends. The unicorn could be summed up in one word: GRACEFUL. She never disgraces herself or does silly things. Every character in the movie, except the Red Bull, seems to love her. |
| Weekend At Bernies 2 |
Jaws 3 |
| Yeesh. The dead guy from Weekend at Bernie's is back for the gratuitous sequel, still flopping around in his lifelessness like a wet noodle and getting dragged, stuck, bumped, and subjected to all manner of undignified things the living would never tolerate. Jonathan Silverman and Andrew McCarthy return as hapless businessmen who flee to the Virgin Islands after being accused of embezzlement. For reasons we won't go into, they need Bernie's corpse to get out of a jam. McCarthy is annoyingly mannered, Silverman is on auto-pilot, and the visual jokes--all based on one form of desecration or another--do not strike any resonant black-comedy chords. |
I could not find any decent reviews for this movie so I guess I will go ahead and write you out some of my own.
This...unlike the other "Jaws" movies is good. Haha. This one takes place in a marine park, Sea World in Florida. A Great White shark invades the park and the usual...kills off some teenagers. The ending is by far the best of all the "Jaws" movies. Ah here we go..found some reviews for you.
"The grown up Brody sons (Dennis Quaid & John Putch) have a new shark adventure to contend with when a baby shark enters Sea World through a faulty gate and dies shortly after. The shark's mother soon follows her offspring into the park, and Sea World finds itself with a new (and unintended) attraction. Nothing really scary, and the loss of the 3-D effects on television don't help matters much. One saving grace is Lou Gossett Jr., who always watchable, but neither the story or the shark scenes hold much water."
