In the same fashion as the Charlie's Angels movie franchise, Starsky & Hutch takes a dramatic crime show of the 70's and makes a half witted comedy out of it.
Staring Ben Stiller and Owen Wilson as the comedic duo, the movie tries to deliver laughs but manages to do very little. Though Owen Wilson and Snoop Dog, who also stars in the movie, are funny the real laughs come from watching Stiller, who plays David Starsky, make a fool of himself with farsy acting and the very nerotic behavior we saw him portray in the short lived Duplex.
Though the movie is not the best movie of the year it still manages to do a better job than 2003's Charlie's Angels: Full Throtle.
The DVD's Special Features aren't very extensive but a gag real, deleted scenes and commentary are included. If you enjoy half slap stick humor and half down and out humor you'll enjoy this movie.
3/10 ---- It could have been better but the original S&H do make a small cameo with the infamous car.

White Chicks = Bad Flick
After seeing previews for this movie for the first time a few weeks back I had no intention of seeing this movie but did hold some hope that it just might be good. Well, as irony and karma would have it I did see this movie and let me tell you, Sandra Bullock was wrong when she said "Hope Floats" because my hopes sunk quicker than Jack on the Titanic.
Though Shawn and Marlon Wayans portrayal of Mexican shop owners in the movies first few minutes was rather funny (especially when they tried on their Groucho Marx impersonation) the rest fell fast.
In the opening scene they attack the wrong men who are supposed to be drug dealers using Ice Cream as a code name for crack and only get Vanilla ice cream instead of missing the real dealers. This describes their choice in movie plot "a hit and miss" which should have become a "hit and run"
And though the comedy of the movie was supposed to come from the brothers dressing as women and barley being passable, with some nose reduction and less facial expressions they could have made it into the women's bathroom unsuspected. Unlike "Tootsie" or "Big Mamma's House" these men actually could pass as women.
A white flag shows vibrantly to those of pure sanity when there is an M.C. Hammer joke in the first few minutes and is only proved to be more apparent when it is repeated in the finale.
The script is very unoriginal and seemed rushed and lazy. The idea is borrowed from so many movies including "Some Like It Hot," "Tootsie," "Nuns on the Run" and is almost pitch perfect to Martin Lawrence's "Big Momma's House." With the starting within the first 10 minutes, lagging on for a good hour and the only to be wrapped up within a matter of minutes.
Along with many of the movies in which a man dresses as a woman, love hops in for the ride and causes trouble. Marlon Wayans's character Marcus must hide from his lovely and annoying wife that he is playing dress up as an obvious one half of a Hilton Sister spoof. It is during this time that a black football player with a taste for white women gets caught in the tangles of the wo(mans) heart. Shawn Wayans however falls in love with a reporter, which I thought would be hell bent on exposing them because of a sneaking suspicion but does not.
The two "girls" look like Collagen/ Botox addicts with steroid problems as they over shadow the other girls.
My suggestion- if you want to see black men dressed as white women; go to downtown Detroit around the Fox Theater during Twilight hours and you're sure to some.

Space Worms, Zombies and A-Bombs
OH MY!!!
I'm not entirely sure how I came upon this little low-brow film on IMDb but I did. For about a month now I've been madly intrigued by midnight movies and the title caught my eye. Two weeks later I had a DVD copy of the film in my b-movie-loving hands. I placed into the DVD player and let the good times role. I wasn't sure what I was in store for as I watched it and I'm still quite not sure upon finishing it. It was obviously made by teens but since I do the same thing, I understood their motivations easily. I'd like to call this movie Golden Sh*t, and I mean that with the utmost respect. I loved every minute. From the space worms (a.k.a. kids in sleeping bags) to the zombies (I loved the Nirvana hat) to the clips from cult classic horror films. Above all the cheesiness was great. I thought it was very clever to put space worms and zombies in the same movie. When I heard that there were zombies as well I thought it was probably just a "hey, lets put zombies in here too!" but the space worms inhabiting the bodies of the dead and using them to attack was very, very clever. Some of the acting is flat but I run into that in my films all the time. Some of the editing is flawed but it adds to the cheesy greatness. Overall an 8/10. The camera quality at times was low but at the same time good. I loved this film and would totally recommend it to anyone who loves midnight cinema. The ending is a bang!
