"What if ultra-modern, samurai sword wielding Japanese cowboys had participated in the Gold Rush of the mid 19th century in the United States? Sukiyaki Western Django is an anachronistic mishmash that attempts to answer this question by infusing the spaghetti western with traditional Japanese cinema to create a sumptuous feast of the senses made all the more delicious by the random dashes of uncouth American sensibilities thanks in large part to Quentin Tarantino. A story of murder, revenge and redemption; the Japanese love child of A Fistful of Dollars and Monty Python and the Holy Grail. "

"I keep forgetting that Mike Myers is not actually playing an Indian in The Love Guru, and yet I’m constantly reminded by the film’s commercials, which show that ridiculous shot of a little kid’s body with Myers’ giant head digitally superimposed onto it. Really, Myers’ character (Pitka) is a white American who is left on the doorstep of an Indian ashram when he’s a child. Then he’s raised as Indian, I guess (or simply Hindu, but then why the accent?). Apparently the character, Pitka, couldn’t simply look and talk like Myers. He had to have that silly accent and the clothes and the facial hair, despite the fact that Deepak Chopra, who partially inspired the character (and who appears in the movie), is able to wear jeans and be clean-shaven. Because who would believe Myers as an Indian guru with just the voice, the clothes and his baby face? Of course, Myers is not the first actor to wear or grow a beard and/or mustache in order to take on the guise of another ethnicity. Sure, it’s a ... "

"Cinematic parody as it once was is dead. And after much searching and researching, I have found the murderer of this under-appreciated sub-genre of filmmaking. It’s Waldo. Oh sure, the bespectacled, striped-ski-cap-sporting little geek likes to appear anonymous, but I am positive he is to blame for the current slate of “Movie” movies: “Epic Movie,” ”Date Movie” and, most recently, “Superhero Movie.” If he’s not guilty, ask yourself this, why is he always hiding?

""If you haven't seen it, please do."-Richard Dawkins, parenthetically discussing Monty Python's The Meaning of Life in his book The God Delusion. If Monty Python's The Meaning of Life is remembered less fondly than their earlier classics Monty Python and the Holy Grail and The Life of Brian, this is not to say that the film has fewer laughs or that the point of Monty Python's satire has in any way been blunted. Granted, the humor is arguably the Pythons' most vulgar and can at times come across as crude. But watching The Meaning of Life a quarter of a century after its release, what remains shocking is not the wealth of projectile vomit, naked breasts, or children singing about sperm; what continues to alienate and to offend is the film's surprisingly direct attack on what it considers a terribly misguided society. And the worst offender? Christian ideology and rhetoric.The Pythons -- Graham Chapman, John Cleese, Terry Gilliam, Eric Idle, Ter "

"This was the third time I was viewing this movie (I was with Jaryd, and it was his first time,) I have always found it very creative, and quite funny- but I didnt get nearly as much a kick out of it as Jaryd did- he was laughing so hard, and constantly was exclaiming "WHAT!?" through most of the film.the ending is the best part- its so ridiculous... he couldnt get over it.it was great.
