    Undercover Brother - a review

    It's a bit slow at the beginning, but it finds its stride, and makes the paper-thin plot a vehicle to play on all of the racial stereotypes in a very funny way. I was laughing hard towards the end of the film, and a lot of funny bits are not in the trailers! Yay!

    I give it 3 stars, or a grade of B for "Brotherhood".

      Just saw this over the weekend. I agree with you on this one PAT.

      Sort of a crawling start but, it gets up to steam and then it's fun city. I would say that the level of humor, is on par with the Austin Powers series. I fear that this film, will never see the same acclaim though because, society as a whole will not go to see it.

              I saw this film last night. I have not laughed so hard since... I saw Zoolander! I am glad that there were not many people there on a Tuesday night, because I was laughing really hard. I will definitely get this when it comes out on DVD. My wife did not see this one with me, I do not know if she will like it as much as I did.

              Brothers - Watch out for the "Black Man's Kryptonite", or for that matter the "White Man's Kryptonite!

              I also thought Doogie Howser was a GREAT choice for an intern.

                  Upon seeing Maid in Manhatten last week in HD(OAR) and 5.1 I thought perhaps this was a one shot deal. Last night I saw a promotion that they will do this every Friday night.

                  They are censored/cut so we can eliminate that much of the debate right now(complain elsewhere) but they are...

                  With the ASC awards and the Acadamy Awards coming up soon, I have been trying to work my way through all my DVDs of the potential nominees. I know that comedies don't usually fare well when it comes to award night but, I found my self replaying scenes from Oh Brother Where Art Thou and laughing out...

                  A PC for my brother
                  by PMazz
                  My brother asked me to put a new bare bones PC together for him. As I'm a fan of Asus, a MB with all the bells and whistles looks to be a P4G8x deluxe OEM with onboard sound, LAN, and Firewire. Throw in 512 MB PC2100 DDR SDRam. For video, he likes to game some, aan Asus GeForce4 V9180 TD with 64 meg...

                  MTMs for my brother this time!
                  by PMazz
                  Well, this time my brother has asked about speakers. He's having a house built that will have a large family room and kitchen (19 x 50) open space. He's heard my LAs and wants decent speakers. He hasn't had a stereo setup in about ten years and is itching to get his jazz collection out of storage....
