With OSMOSIS JONES, triple threat writer-director-producer brothers Bobby and Peter Farrelly (THERE'S SOMETHING ABOUT MARY) successfully move into the live-action/animation genre. Frank (Bill Murray), a scruffy, overweight zoo keeper, revels in his unhealthy habits much to the chagrin of his young daughter, Shane (Elena Franklin). When Frank eats a dirty hard-boiled egg, the contagion-filled food enters The City of Frank, under the jurisdiction of germ-fighting white blood cell, Osmosis Jones (voiced by Chris Rock). A renegade cop in desperate need of a good case, Jones teams up with Drix (voiced by David Hyde Pierce), a superhero cold pill sent in to fight Frank's sore throat. The duo soon discovers that the troublesome egg carried a particularly evil germ, Thrax (voiced by Laurence Fishburne), who makes dastardly plans while hiding behind seemingly harmless cold symptoms. Jones and Drix struggle to convince Mayor Phlegmming (voiced by William Shatner) and his pretty aide, Leah (voiced by Brandy Norwood) of the danger, and to find the silky speaker, Red Death, before he does Frank true harm. Full of inventive sight gags and typical Farrelly gross-out humor, OSMOSIS JONES is a funny, clever blend of buddy cop romp, cartoon sci-fi, and fable, for both kids and adults.

Osmosis Jones Reviews:

"...The most extensive interplay of live action and animation since WHO FRAMED ROGER RABBIT?....The fluid hand drawing is the star..." -- Robert Koehler, Variety

"...The animation puts a new spin on things....Clever animation and energetic vocal performances..." -- Peter Travers, Rolling Stone

"...A fanciful animated cartoon-slash-hygiene lesson..." -- Lisa Schwarzbaum, Entertainment Weekly

"...Mr. Murray's slob obliviousness is touching....The animated sequences, directed by Piet Kroon and Tito Sito, pop with color and perversity..." -- Elvis Mitchell, New York Times

"...The animation sequences -- the movie's best moments -- hurtle by at breakneck speed....Murray manages to be both disgusting and endearing..." -- Andy Seiler, USA Today

"...A gleefully inventive journey into one man's gastrointestinal system....OSMOSIS JONES is the year's ultimate bodily functions comedy..." -- Jan Stuart, Los Angeles Times

"...The cumulative effect of all these gags makes OSMOSIS JONES entertaining..." -- Jamie Russell, Sight and Sound

This is the only Piet Kroon video.

3 stars Sooooo that's what is going on in there!
How creative!, what an imagination! I absolutely enjoyed this. I first saw it at a camp, and was amazed by it, so much so I forgot the kids I was suppose to be watching were there. I have had the chance to introduce this movie to kids who had not seen it. How about another!

Set in a strange, colorful land populated by fairy tale characters, SHREK is a hilarious comedy that will win over audiences of children and adults alike. Shrek (voiced by Mike Myers) is a fearsome green ogre living in isolation in his own cozy little swamp. He is not receptive to visitors, and fends off the occasional party of torch-wielding villagers with ease. But when the power-hungry Lord Farquaad (John Lithgow) turns Shrek's swamp into a relocation camp for dozens of banished fairy-tale characters (including some pesky dwarves, wolves, and fairies) Shrek's quiet, introverted life is ruined. Joined by the talkative Donkey (Eddie Murphy), Shrek makes his way to Farquaad's realm of Duloc, where the Lord promises makes Shrek and offer: He will rid Shrek's land of the unwanted visitors if Shrek will go on a simple quest to free Princess Fiona (Cameron Diaz) from her remote, dragon-guarded castle and convince her to marry Farquaad. On their quest, Shrek and Donkey run into a number of bizarre situations, and Shrek finds ...
