| Dodgeball - movie, 4 stars I picked up the Widescreen Edition of Dodgeball on DVD this week at my favorite place to waste time: TARGET. I caught parts of this funny movie on my flight back from Spain in November. Ben Stiller always makes me laugh. He's much funnier than that other Ben - Ben Asslick ughh... Affleck. I caught his movie Paycheck with Uma Thurman on another flight from somewhere. What a waste of life... I'm glad I had nothing better to do. I couldn't even sleep.
I digress...Dodgeball: Funny, great cast, superb cameos, excellent physical humor. It seems that there are many people returning from Old School in this movie. I get the feeling that this movie is like "There's Something About Mary" not quite as funny the second time around. But I'll give it a chance plus I'll check out the commentary track on the DVD. | | | 11:50 pm - email it |

| Mama Mia! Madrid - destination, 4 stars Mama Mia!
20 Noveimbre 2004 22:00 Performance at the Lope De Vega Theatre Madrid.
Well my first choice was DRALION a la Cirque du Soleil at the Plaza Del Campo in Madrid. That was sold out until 8 December. I couldnīt wait til then. So I decided to take in one of the other shows that was playing in Madrid and seem to be very popular: Cats, Caberet, and Mama Mia!. I should have realized that everything would be translated to Spanish. This made it difficult to appreciate all of the comedy, dialogue, and ABBA songs that were Espagnafied. I enjoyed it otherwise. I like the Theatre. I like going out and the atmosphere. I hope to take my family to these kinda cultural outings and make it a regular thing. SF (ie San Francisco) has some great theatre.
Anyway, if you are in Madrid the show is good! I will check it out for sure somewhere in the States... SF or Las Vegas. ciao! | | | 2:10 pm - email it |
