DVD Movie Review - The Roast of William Shatner (Uncensored)

I can't believe I hadn't seen this.



When I was given the opportunity to review this I couldn't wait. I had heard a lot about the 'Roasts' on Comedy Central but hadn't actually seen one. After watching my first Roast I have to say that I am hooked.

Comedians take turns cutting Shatner down. (He's bloated, he's washed up. he's a terrible actor..) They also turn the jabs at eachother. (Farrah's poster was great but nobody wants to f*ck her anymore, Artie Lange is a fat drunken sloth and Bettie White has an overactive bladder..)


There is nothing sacred, and no punches are pulled. Sometimes the jokes border on being offensive, so I suggest you have a pretty open sense of humor when viewing.


I would recommend this DVD to anyone with a warped sense of humor like yours truly. This is some funny shizzle here. The best part is that Shatner can laugh at himself as well.

Starring: William Shatner, Jason Alexander, Andy Dick, Greg Giraldo, Artie Lange, George Takei, Nichelle Nichols, Ben Stiller, Sandra Bullock, Jimmy Kimmel, Sara Silverman, Betty White, Kevin Pollak, Lisa Lampanelli

Spicy Movie Review: 'Man About Town'

Cast: Ben Affleck, Rebecca Romijn, Bai Ling, Mike Binder, John Cleese, Jerry O'Connell, Gina Gershon, Kal Penn, Adam Goldberg, Howard Hesseman, Amber Valletta, Damien Wayans

Director: Mike Binder
Screenplay: Mike Binder
Genre: Drama
Rated: M
Running Time: 96 minutes


Man About Town is a movie about a Hollywood Agent, Jack Giamoro (Ben Affleck) who feels he has lost his edge. And with good reason.

He's failed to sign one of the biggest names in Hollywood, his ailing father has moved in with him, his marriage is in shambles, and he suspects (correctly) that his wife may be having an affair.

Jack takes a course in journal writing to help him clear his mind and discover just what it is in life that he really wants. At first he takes the course with a grain of salt, afraid his colleagues will mock him if they found out. As the class progresses his journal starts to take form and his ideas, secrets and feelings flow.

That's where the nettled reporter (Bai Ling) comes in. Revenge is on her mind after Jack never contacts her regarding screenplays she had sent to him. She decides to ruin him with an expose, and of course, gets ahold of the journal and all of Giamoro's secrets.

As they say when it rains it pours, and it's also about this same time that Jack find's out that his wife is indeed cheating on him...with his top client.

Man About Town is a good movie, but by no means is it a great movie. Bai Ling had the most entertaining role as the bitter reporter/screenwriter. While Ben Affleck's character was just plain boring. All I could think about after his wife admitted to him sorrowfully that she had an affair was 'Why would she even be interested in this guy?'

All in all I think the plot in this movie was weak, and you couldn't relate to the characters whatsoever. If substance is what you are looking for you won't find it here.

Would I recommend this movie? Sure, if there is nothing better on, or you are watching it on someone else's dime.

Spicy Movie Review: 'Jackass 2'

If you saw the first Jackass, then you pretty much know what you are in for.

However, I would have to say that Jackass 2 takes it to a whole new level. There is more stuff to gross you out. More bodily fluids, more launching people into the water at high speeds, and more stuff stuck up their cornholes.

Most of you already know that this movie is not for everyone. If you are easily offended, have a weak stomach, or don't find stupid human tricks funny, this is certainly not the movie for you. I just happen to have a terribly sick sense of humor, so of course, I loved it.

A great movie for parties, and a great movie to add to your collection. When all else fails, Jackass 2 can lift your spirits on a rainy day. It will have you laughing in no time, even if you are completely grossed out.



Spicy gives Jackass 2 a thumbs up!
