The Best of all the Scooby T.V. series!.......2006-10-27

What's New Scooby Doo is the updated version of the original Scooby Doo mysteries and I think it is the best. The production value is excellent and, as a father of 3 die hard Scooby fans(and a huge fan myself), I find the updated version of the mystery 5 hysterical. This series is perfect to introduce your children to a show that you loved as a child and you'll probably find yourself having as much fun watching it as your kids!

Each DVD is better than the last!.......2006-06-10

Like all of the previous "What's New Scooby Doo?" DVDs, this one is better than all of the ones before (except Volume 8, they're both great!).

This is DVD contains 5 episodes instead of the usual 4. Here are the following episodes, the monster featured in them, and the grades I give them:

1) "Go West Young Scoob" -- Out-of-Control Robots (A+)
2) "Camp Comeonawannascareya" -- Toxic Waste Monster (A-)
3) "Demon Farmer: Farmed and Dangerous" -- Demon Farmer (A+)
4) "Fright House of a Lighthouse" -- A Ghost That Lives In A Lighthouse (A+)
5) "Gentlemen, Start Your Monsters!" -- a MONSTER truck & a skeleton driver (A)

Buy this volume, as well as all the other 8 volumes in this DVD collection, because.....Scooby-Doo is the best! Trust me, you'll love - and won't regret it!!!

ROUTE 9 is a Dead End........2007-07-30

Other possible titles for this review.

1. A SIMPLETON PLAN

2. THE LOVE OF MONEY IS THE ROUTE 9 OF ALL EVIL

3. IF YOU ARE THINKING OF WATCHING ROUTE 9, YOU MAY WANT TO TAKE THE DETOUR

4. ROUTE 9 (ALTERNATE TITLE: ABBOTT AND COSTELLO FIND A BAG O' MONEY)

5. TO GET TO ROUTE 9, MAKE A RIGHT AT CLICHE ROAD, THEN DOG-LEG LEFT TO BAD ACTING BOULEVARD

6. MAYBE IF I SAW ROUTES 1-8, I'D HAVE LIKED ROUTE 9 MORE

7. ROUTE 9 = STRIC 9

ROUTE 9, as you probably have guessed, is a pedestrian effort where you can easily guess the next line, the next scene, and possibly the amount of seconds between your eye rolls. There is nothing new here, yet it took 3 writers 18 months to cobble it together (I may not get my 102 minutes back, but they'll never get their 18 months back). But hey, at least they got a movie made so they can be proud of that. And embarrassed at the same time.

Almost everyone in this movie is a moron who makes irrational decisions. And they're mostly law enforcement officers. Who works the HR desk at these places, Leslie Nielsen?

I can go on for years, but I won't. I'll die so that you can live. I will tell you this, though; on the director's commentary (I could only get through 15 minutes of it), helmer David Mackay said he saw Amy Locane in the movie CARRIED AWAY where "she did a phenomenal job" and "that performance sold me." And that, my friend, is all you ever need to know.

Not bad at all neo-noir.......2006-08-17

I almost gave this four stars. The only thing that kept me from doing so was the kinda formulaic plot, but in all fairness, it's done well. This is kinda like a poor man's version of "A Simple Plan" with some ham-fisted acting--it doesn't have the professionalism of Raimi's "Simple Plan"--but nevertheless still effective.

So the formula goes--unsuspecting guys stumble on dead bodies and lotsa cash and lotsa drugs. The guys take the money. Complications ensue (gee, really?). The only actor here with serious professional chops is, interestingly, Roma Maffia, who plays the FBI agent Ellen Marks. She's like moving through the whole film with this demeanor that's saying, "Are you kiddin' me? THIS is what we're doing here??" But she's pretty cool.

The other actors are somewhat off kilter (in their acting) and play characters who are mostly either dumb or illogical. Or both. But you kinda identify with them cause after all, they're only human, right? Just like the rest of us. And yeah, that includes me. Sometimes I do dumb things. Sometimes I do illogical things. Am I better than everyone else? Nope. And neither are these characters. That's what makes this movie work to the extent that it does.

The two guys who find the cash, drugs, and dead bodies belong to the Sheriff's Department in Grimley, Texas. One has an ongoing affair with the sheriff's wife and the other, at heart, is a vicious thug. The sheriff himself, played by Peter Coyote, is a crude guy (talk about yer stereotypes) but since he's a decent actor, he makes his character fun to watch.

While the plot is formulaic, it's not stupid. The characters may do dumb things, but this is not a dumb movie. It works pretty well, in fact. So if you want to relax and get yer down home slice of neo-noir, kick back and pop this baby in the DVD player.

You could do a lot worse.

KEEPS YOU GUESSING.......2004-08-31

This movie has an excellent story that keeps you guessing whether the "bad" cops are going to get caught by the authorities. One wrong deed leads to further ones in an effort by the cops to cover-up their initial "crime". There is a lot of twists and turns in the story-line which keeps it interesting and the acting is great.

Quite Good; Similar to "Simple Plan" & "Blood Simple".......2002-11-25

Dashielle Hammett came up with the original idea that once people committed to murder, their thinking became simple and so they made error after error leading to their own destruction. It was the letting of the blood that converted them into morons. This film runs with that premise as did "Simple Plan" and "Blood Simple". Two deputy sheriffs come across a crime scene that seems too good to be true and within fifteen minutes they become thieves and murderers. From that original activity, all hell proceeds to break loose. This film also has a good natured sense of humor about it and you will find yourself at times laughing at the two leads and their descent into criminality. Well done. We enjoyed it a lot.

Late Night Movie...Lotsa Action...and KYLE!.......2002-03-03

This film was ALRIGHT...but not much more.
If you have the DVD and haven't seen the movie...DON'T watch the Trailer First like I did! The Trailer gives TOO MUCH away.
Okay movie to watch if you're needing distraction from vaccuming or laundry.
