Standard Screen; Additional Footage; Soundtrack English; Soundtrack French; Soundtrack Spanish; English Subtitles; Director's Comments Continuing in the vein of their wildly successful SCARY MOVIE series, Jason Friedberg and Aaron Seltzer turn their comedic minds to the romantic comedy genre, resulting in DATE MOVIE, yet another rapid fire assault of send-ups of both recent and classic film moments. Utilizing MY BIG FAT GREEK WEDDING as the framework on which all the other jokes hang, Alyson Hannigan (AMERICAN PIE) is Julia Jones, the obese daughter of a not-so Greek family. Upon meeting Grant Funkyerdoder (Adam Campbell)--a suave British customer at the diner owned by her hummus-obsessed father (Eddie Griffin)--Julia decides to get massive liposuction in an auto garage (in a sequence based on MTV's PIMP MY RIDE) as a means to make herself more attractive to him. But this, as we know, is all merely a setup for a nonstop barrage of gags based on films such as HITCH, MY BEST FRIEND'S WEDDING, MEET THE PARENTS/FOCKERS, SLEEPLESS IN SEATTLE, THE WEDDING PLANNER, and more.
A direct descendent of the AIRPLANE and NAKED GUN films, story is secondary in DATE MOVIE---what matters are the gags, and they come fast and furious. If one joke doesn't work for you, there's always another one just around the corner. Friedberg and Seltzer know their audience, and they make the most of their PG-13 rating--crudity abounds, with jokes about bodily functions figuring heavily in the mix. In her first leading role, Hannigan makes an appealing heroine (even transcending the fat suit she wears for for the first quarter of the film), and Fred Willard and Jennifer Coolidge, in an extended riff on Dustin Hoffman and Barbra Streisand's FOCKER roles, add some class to the proceedings. Theatrical Release: February 17, 2006
Date Movie Reviews: "[A] comedy that's salty and loud....If you're in that mood, a handful of these jokes will be likely just what you crave." -- Grade: B-

Date Movie Movie Review One of the funniest movies around! This movie clearly isn't for everyone - if you like "Dumb and Dumber", "American Pie" and typical Farelly Bros. humor, you'll love this. I'd say it's also directed towards men. The opening sequence alone with the acrobatics was over the top. Take it for what it is, just a dumb, albeit hilarious movie.

Lame The first thirty to forty-five minutes was absolutely hilarious, but then it spiraled downhill. Most of the scenes are stolen and it just was very unimpressive overall. Submitted by KDogg (New Kent, VA, USA) Was This Review Helpful? Yes No This review is for a different format.
BY FAR THE WORST MOVIE CREATED THERE IS NO POINT IN THIS MOVIE. IT IS EXTREMELY STUPID. I COULDNT EVEN FINISH IT. ITS NOT EVEN STUPID FUNNY.

ABSOLUTELY HILARIOUS!!!!!! YOU SAW THE COMMERCIALS AND THEY AIN'T LYING ABOUT THIS MOVIE. YOU WILL LAUGH YOUR HEAD OFF. THE CAT ON THE TOILET TAKING A DUMP IS WORTH THE RENTAL PRICE ALONE.

$8.85 A celebration of the life of Tejano princess Selena Quintanilla Perez, the rising star who was gunned down by the president of her own fan club in 1995. Amid the racial tensions and economic hardships of 1980's South Texas, the daughter of a Mexican immigrant (himself a failed doo-wop singer) grows up to be a sensation in the blossoming Tejano scene before meeting a tragic end.

| | Five Easy Pieces DVD (1970) Widescreen
Date Movie review
$10.35 FIVE EASY PIECES is one of the most notable collaborations between Jack Nicholson and director Bob Rafelson, with Nicholson in an outstanding performance as Bobby Dupea. In the film, Rafelson and Nicholson capture the difficult, awkward life of a gifted man who hasn't discovered a way to fully express his talent or found his place in the world--and maybe never will.
Bobby is a classic misfit--disillusioned about being a musician, unhappy as an oil rigger, and unable to make a commitment to his girlfriend, Rayette (ubiquitous '70s starlet Karen Black), who hopes for marriage. When he visits his family home on Puget Sound after a long absence, things don't get better. Bobby hates the repressive atmosphere: his brother is unbearable, his father can't speak, and his sister is involved with his father's supercilious male nurse. When Bobby sets his sights on his brother's fiancée, Catherine Van Ost (movingly played by the beautiful Susan Anspach), things seem to be getting better--that is, until Rayette arrives and Bobby realizes he is caught in a collision between his two lives. The film features characteristically gorgeous cinematography from Laszlo Kovaks and a soundtrack that skillfully offsets Tammy Wynette with Chopin. FIVE EASY PIECES is a riveting American story about a former musical ingénue whose ...

| | Monty Python and the Holy Grail: Extraordinarily Deluxe Edition DVDs (1975) Widescreen; Deluxe Edition; Dubbed; Subtitled
Date Movie DVD
$23.95 This classic Monty Python comedy, directed by Pythons Terry Gilliam and Terry Jones, is a hilarious send-up of the grim circumstances of the Middle Ages as told through the story of King Arthur and framed by a modern-day murder investigation. When the mythical king of the Britons leads his knights on a quest for the Holy Grail, they face a wide array of horrors, including a persistent Black Knight, a three-headed giant, a cadre of shrubbery-challenged knights, the perilous Castle Anthrax, a killer rabbit, a house of virgins, and a handful of rude Frenchmen.
In addition to the set pieces, the film also includes the same kind of surreal animation that Gilliam contributed to the television series. Throughout the irreverent adventures, the Python crew eschews realism in favor of anachronistic social satire, a recipe it later returned to in the 1979 biblical farce ...
