Sweet Movie

Dr. Gonzo Kablaa TMC review – April 7, 2009
I wrote a lot of this review while fairly drunk.
You’re rich.  You have money, power, a cowboy hat.  What’s the one thing you still need?  Some grade A poontang (and not “pointing”, as Microsoft Word suggests I might have meant.  How the fuck would anyone possibly spell [...]

O Lucky Man!

Dr. Gonzo Kablaa TMC review – April 4, 2009
This movie is supposed to be about the pitfalls of capitalism or something.  I thought it was more about the pitfalls of being stupid.
One thing I noticed off the bat is one of the problems of Malcolm McDowell’s career.  I immediately reverted to my Clockwork Orange conception [...]

Woman in the Dunes

Dr. Gonzo Kablaa TMC review – February 7, 2009
“I’ve got this idea for a movie.  Some dude gets kidnapped and has to dig sand forever.”
“Can we still add in something about sexual repression?”
“Yeah, probably.”
“All right.  Let’s give it a go.”
I didn’t even know they HAD dunes in Japan.  Much less, quicksand.
The nice thing about Japanese [...]

Bad Boy Bubby

Dr. Gonzo Kablaa TMC review – January 16, 2009
Indiana Jones 4 was a remake of this movie.  Do you see?
Estranged older father meets son he didn’t know existed.  Tensions develop, and then there’s an adventure!  At the end, there’s an intimate family moment.
There are differences, of course.  Indiana Jones was never killed with cling wrap, [...]

Duck, You Sucker

Dr. Gonzo Kablaa TMC review – January 16, 2009
Never would I have imagined “Duck, you sucker” could be made into a catchy catch phrase.  Sergio Leone did it, though.  The next time I blow something up with dynamite, that’ll probably be the phrase I use.  It has a certain appeal to it.  I was wondering [...]

Master of the Flying Guillotine

Dr. Kablaa TMC review – December 29, 2008
“Hey, we are having a no-holds barred martial arts competition.”
“Why?”
“I don’t know.  It seems like a good idea.”
“There’s no mystical evil force taking over the world or revenge or magnificent reward basis to it?”
“No.”
The lack of set-up is actually appealing.  A good martial arts movie is not about [...]

The Believer

Dr. Kablaa TMC Review – November 17, 2008
The Believer.  BELIEVE IT!  That’s something Naruto says.  You are most likely familiar with the expression.  The expression could have been transitioned easily into this movie.
“I am a Nazi.  Believe it!”
“Aren’t you a Jew?”
“No.  Didn’t you hear me?  BELIEVE IT!”
This movie was mainly about a Jew who hated [...]
