Story Jack Newfield
Darius McCrary, Gabriel Casseus, Jeremy Piven, Keith David, Ving Rhames, Vondie Curtis Hall - Director: John Herzfeld From running numbers to "The Rumble in the Jungle," from Ali to Tyson, Dong King (Ving Rhames) wouldn't always fight clean, he wouldn't always fight fair, but he would always fight to win.

Legendarily flamboyant heavyweight boxing promoter and nonpareil all-purpose huckster King gets the biodrama treatment in this ambitious HBO promotion, for which star Rhames snagged a Golden Globe--which he then passed on to fellow nominee Jack Lemmon. Based on the biography "Only in America: The Life and Crimes of Don King" by Jack Newfield.

Average Rating: (5 out of 5 stars) 5 stars

5 stars Ving Rhanes' greatest performance
This an exceptional film. Ving Rhames gives the best performance of his career. At times he plays King as vicous, then psuchotic, then manipulative and scheming. The amazing thing is he carries it off so well. While the movie doesn't flatter King, it doesn't pull any punches when dealing with "America," either. (Rhames' monologue rant on the hypocrisy of HBO is brilliant) Any discerning film buff needs ro see this movie.

SUPERFLY, along with COFFY and SHAFT, completes Blaxploitations's best known triumvirate. One of the highest-grossing pictures of 1972, SUPERFLY became an instant classic, and established director Gordon Parks firmly in Warner Brothers' sights to make THREE THE HARD WAY in 1974. Parks was one of the first African American directors to get financing from a major Hollywood studio to make the 1969 film THE LEARNING TREE. Super Fly is a cocaine dealer who begins to realize that his life will soon end with either prison or his death. He decides to build an escape from the life by making his biggest deal yet, converting the ...

Don King: Only In America review
DVD $25.99  3.5 stars
ETERNAL SUNSHINE OF THE SPOTLESS MIND is an unconventional romance told in the abstract, inventive, and comedic storytelling style of screenwriter Charlie Kaufman. Like his scripts for ADAPTATION and BEING JOHN MALKOVICH, this plot works off of a relatively complex idea that is more easily explained through the language of film than through words. In its most basic description, Joel (Jim Carrey) is undergoing a medical procedure to erase the memory of his ex-girlfriend, Clementine (Kate Winslet). However, while he is unconscious and the procedure is underway, he takes a journey through his mind, reliving moments with Clementine for fear of losing her forever. Using disjointed sound and action, foggy periods indicating Joel's confusion, and flashbacks to childhood where objects appear much bigger than they are to adult eyes, the cinematography communicates Joel's dilemma with visual hilarity. Only occasionally is the film laugh-out-loud funny; instead it is much more deeply and darkly amusing as the absurdity of the situation grows. ETERNAL SUNSHINE is nothing short of brilliant--a credit to director Michel Gondry (who has a topnotch reputation for his aesthetic music videos by artists such as Bjork). Carrey is wonderfully understated in the role of a simpleminded nice guy, and his signature goofiness is used only a handful of times. Winslet lights up the screen with her blue hair and ...
