Diagonaldi Very well executed
Lollivan It's the kind of movie you'll want to see a second time with someone who hasn't seen it yet, to remember what it was like to watch it for the first time.
Rio Hayward All of these films share one commonality, that being a kind of emotional center that humanizes a cast of monsters.
Jenna Walter The film may be flawed, but its message is not.
sugardave-46286 This is absolute crap. This movie serves 2x purposes. One, to remind you that if you shot yourself with heroin, drink a bottle of scotch and allow someone to break a cricket bat over your head, you will still manage to write, produce and direct a better film than this. The 2nd purpose, should you have guests over and you wish them to leave immediately, put on this film. Trust me it works, my brain managed to exit my skull and hasn't returned since. I am not sure what the purpose of this film was, to serve as an advert for Club Med, a platform for Alan Thickie and Jim Carey, was it a live performance of a band, with the very occasional random scene thrown in?! I don't know and really don't care, this film is bad bad bad!
alexmoerman86 I would prefer to staple my fagina (which I would have to grow first), than watch this festering gunt scab of a film (again).I literally wigged out and had to turn it off (with my toe) after consuming marajuana. If I was pregnant, I dare say the child would not have survived the associated noise.Despite this, I have seen the venereal masterpiece several times. I am about to watch it again. Gunt save me.Billy Frankenstein is a movie I have not seen, stay tuned for a review shortly.Copper Mountain 2 (otherwise known as the apocalypse; see "Revelations") is due out my armhole this fall.Seriously, watch this film, it is an absurd (absurb) truth that Jim Carrey's career continued after this atrocity. WHAT PHUCKING MOVIE RUNS LESS THAN AN HOUR (besides bambi, which was totally sweet {and sad}).Ps. I put the bop in the bop shoowop shoowop.Pps. This movie is awesome and you can get it from ebay fairly cheap, and is absolutely a steal if you can score it for under $30
incredible_flying_shark No matter how crap you think this film is - it launched Copper Mountain into a world renowned ski resort. Before this flick it was a single village family crap-hole. Now it's a 3 going on four village resort that gives Aspen, Vail, & Breckenridge fierce competition. If you go to Copper it's fun to watch this movie afterwards to see the changes. Make sure you check out nearby Leadville truly one of the best kept secrets in America. You can see Leadville on the sign at the end of the opening credits. Go to the Silver Dollar Saloon & Quincy's. Doc Holliday hung out in Leadville & it hasn't changed much since.Nonetheless this is a piece of history. The ski industry has changed so much - it went from cheesy to prestigious. This film happeneed right before the industry boomed.
Reg Franklin This film was little more than a vehicle for Club Med and Rowdy Ronnie Hawkins. If you actually go thru the movie and time it, The musical numbers get more air time than Carrey or Thicke. Odds are this is something the two of them try to leave off their resumes. I will say Carrey is humorous in most of his appearances, displaying a dead on imitation of Steve Martin in one scene. My interpretation was the director realized that the story was only 20 minutes long and had to insert 40 minutes of concert to ensure it could at least possibly pass as a made for TV Movie.I got this as an Xmas gift, only saw it recently, and am going to trade it in ASAP. It's the thought that counts, but....yeah......
