Oded-Fehr Movie Reviews

Boy, was I surprised when I saw this sitting on store shelves. The first Mummy DVD was chock full of extras, but this is awesome. I was wondering if it was worth putting down ... extra ...($$) for it, so trust me when I say that this disc is worth owning for every possible reason. New Audio Commentaries by Brendan Fraser,and Oded Fehr(the leader of the magi), Kevin J. O'Connor(Benny), and Arnold Vosloo( the man himself, The Mummy). The Making of The Mummy. Egyptology 101. Deleted Scenes, Visual and Special Effects, Photograph Montage, Pharoh Lineage, and you get the traler for, not only The Mummy, but The Mummy Returns as well.Plus, an insiders look at The Making of the Mummy Returns. If you have a DVD-Rom drive you can watch a live webcast premier of The Mummy Returns, Script to Screen translations, Screen Savers, and a demo for The Mummy PC Game. So, all and all it is worth every penny. the new commentaries are great and now I can't wait to see The Mummy Returns. Did I mention that the movie itself is great too. Lots of good action scenes, great acting, terrific story, sweet visual effects, and a long run-time(2 hours 5 minutes) make this all the more worth buying. If you own the original Mummy DVD, buy this disc, If you don't own that one, buy this disc. With all it's got going for it, this is the edition to own.

I figured this would be just one of those horror movies where the plot takes a back seat to special effects. That's not true. This isn't one of those explosion packed, gory bloody movies. I loved the beginning when they actually explain the story of the high priest and the pharoah's mistress and stuff instad of bringing it up 45 minutes into the movie. I hate movies like that when I sit wondering what the heck they're doing for the first 45 minutes or so. Since other people have said what it's about, I won't waste computer screen space. All I have to say is this is a great movie and I really enjoyed it. I do like action films and have seen quite a few and this one is great as far as they go. I'm not a fan of horror but this film really changed my mind about horror flicks. It mixes action with a comedy which makes it even more enjoyable and a little more lighthearted. The DVD is also great. The sound and picture is sharp and I would be able to tell the difference between VHS and DVD, something that I usually can't decipher. See this movie, you won't regret it.

If you've never seen this film, you're missing out. NEVER have I seen an action film so well-made. This adventure film, unlike many before it, has a plot. Imhotep, the priest, is in love with the Pharoh's mistress. When this is revealed to the angry Pharoh, the mistress commits suicide, and Imhotep is tortured, then buried alive. A curse is put over him that he might rise again, bringing with him the plauges of Egypt, his sole purpose to resurrect his love. Centuries later, an explorer and a librarian team up to find the city in which he was buried, but find much more than that. The film is amazing! For children, I would say a maybe. The violence is fairly intense, and I'm not a big fan of some of the magic, but all-in-all I enjoyed this flick. This will be a classic for ages to come!!!

Although I didn't think 'Deuce Bigalow: Male Gigolo' was underrated at all, it looks like (by the mere 40 reviews) that it has gone somewhat unnoticed. And although I believe this to be just slightly better than your average comedy, it is still worth seeing. Rob Schneider drops in a performance that really stands out among his fellow/former SNL buddies. And that's probably because besides Eddie Griffin, he's the only known actor. You all saw the previews for this movie before it came out, and probably laughed at those. But this is not one of THOSE type of movies. If you enjoy slapstick, dumb comedy there's great chance you'll "get pleasure" from this movie. And even though it's rated R, it seemed to be the choice movie for 16-year olds to sneak into to. It really seems to be aimed at the younger crowd; I guess "whoring" and male prostitutes are touchy subjects with rating choosers. Hah.

Anyways, the storyline for 'Deuce Bigalow: Male Gigolo" is pretty simplistic at first glance. But once you get into it, it becomes more complicated. Schneider plays the title character and is first seen as a greasy, unkempt fishtank cleaner. He leads a sad, almost pathetic life that leaves him with only his fish as friends. But when he is asked to watch after a rich (male) prostitutes house and sick fish, he becomes more popular. Though not really. After he later destroys the man's fishtank by trying some ridiculous exercise, he is forced to earn the money to replace it (which is a large amount, obviously). Hence, he takes up prostitution; or man-whoring as T.J. (Griffin) likes to call it. That's when the comedy begins. Deuce is forced to visit the homes of numerous handicapped woman who want something from him. Among the women's handicaps there's narcolepsy, tourette's syndrome, and obesity (you probably saw that one coming). The woman are all very unique and in turn Deuce must do some "unique" things to please them. And the point of the story is to see if Deuce can (consequentially) help himself; which if you saw the previews, it looked doubtful. But that's neither here nor there. I don't like to spoil movies for people and I don't like to say too much; so I'll stop here. But I will say that the movie is rather clean. The R rating is misleading; as there are no f-words, no nudity (minus Schneider's butt; which is comical, not sick), and no real vulgarity. If anything it's somewhat provocative (at times).

Even though this is not one of my favorite movies of all-time, it is still enjoyable and was certainly worth my time. I highly recommend this movie to anyone in the 12-25 age range who likes comedies. There are a few parts that might be unacceptable for youngsters and a few that might go over the heads of many 30-year olds. But overall it's pretty fresh and likable as a whole. Again, if you enjoy slapstick comedy with a decent (background) storyline you will like 'Deuce Bigalow: Male Gigolo' and laugh at its endless bits of comedy. But if you don't appreciate slapstick humor and find the prostitution industry to be sick and wrong, you will completely miss its purpose. Basically: if you lack a sense of humor, don't watch it.

Deuce(Schneider) is hired to watch Oded Fehr's house and fish, but he messes it up when he breaks Fehr's expensive fish tank and then ends up becoming a gigolo to try to get the money so he can repair it. funny dates and good humor, though William Forsythe always talking about his twig and thin penis thins the movie out. but nevertheless Schneider comes out on top and for you Oded Fehr ladies you get to see his bare ... which was disturbing.

In probably one of the most underrated comedies of the past ten years, Rob Schneider plays a fish-tank cleaner by the name of Deuce Bigalow who happens to clean for a high-profile gigolo named Antoine. Antoine has to go out of town for awhile, but since his fish is sick, he gives Deuce the job of taking care of his fish (and his apartment) while he is away. Problems arise when Deuce accidentally destroys the interior of the apartment and is more than just strapped for cash. So naturally, he takes on the job of a gigolo. After his first gig, he is impressed with the ten dollar fee he is paid and uses "man-whoring" (as it is referred to in the movie) as a means to save up the money to repair Antoine's apartment. Along the way he meets a man-pimp (Eddie Griffin) who takes him under his wing, a detective hot on Antione's tail with a "thin" problem and a whole lot of messed up women/customers. I've always been a big fan of Rob Schneider. I always thought he was underplayed on SNL and I loved Men Behaving Badly (too bad it got cancelled). He has always had sort of a good natured sense of humor and he is fun to watch. Deuce Bigalow: Male Gigolo stands as his best work to date. I have gotten multiple viewings out of it and I still laugh as hard at some parts as I did when I first saw it (The Tourette's syndrome girl yelling at the family in the car stands out in my mind the most). Although the plot may be a little predictable, it doesn't matter, because the bottom-line is: this movie is funny. I recommend it to anyone who just wants to relax and laugh.

I took my wifey to see THE MUMMY RETURNS when it premiered in theaters (at her request), and the movie was actually better than I expected. Don't get me wrong -- it's eye candy, and there's really nothing there for the folks in the audience other than to be dazzled by the wall-to-wall special effects. The movie charges along at a nonstop pace from the first second to the last, with barely a breather throughout the entire show. And the plot? Well, it's more of a coherent plot (to comic book and pulp fans like us) than most other movies of this ilk, fortunately, and there's nothing that makes us wince and say to ourselves, "Oh, COME ON! Gimme a frackin' break!" Hell, this is the story of a 4,000 year old sorceror resurrected from the dead (for the SECOND time, no less) to do battle with a 4,000 year old army general who sold his soul for power, and who leads an army of 500,000 anthropomorphic dog creatures, *and* fight the good guys at the same time. (Yes, I know those beasties are supposed to be images of Anubis.) We're not talking SCHINDLER'S LIST or even LAWRENCE OF ARABIA here. We're just watching this movie for the special effects and cliffhangers, and while the cliffhangers are predictable, the special effects are good.

Sometimes I wonder about how people today are so accustomed to eye-popping special effects that we've become blase to them. The effects in THE MUMMY RETURNS are remarkable, yet there's nothing we haven't seen before. (The movie even uses the bit about a "wall of energy and death rushing towards you with an image of a howling face in it" twice!) And yet, back in the heyday of the cheap 1950s and 1960s sci-fi movies, directors and producers would have sold their souls to Anubis many times over for "everyday" multi-million dollar special effects of this sort! Lots of people are blase to special effects extravaganzas like this, so that even folks our age can just shrug and go "Eh, special effects are so-so." But there are kids who are raised on this stuff, who are so used to stunningly lifelike special effects that they sneer at the great classics of old like THE WAR OF THE WORLDS or THE DAY THE EARTH STOOD STILL or even the original MUMMY starring Boris Karloff. Sigh...

(And by the way, the original MUMMY is good, but it suffers from the same problem of many Hollywood movies of the early 1930s -- it can get stiff and wooden (like Imhotep himself) because Hollywood was still learning the tricks of filming with sound in those days.)

I tend to rate a movie on it's 'see again' factor - I'd watch this one again and again... I've rarely seen a sequel that follows on so beautifully from where the original left off. It's 10 years later and the O'Connells have a son, Alex, who has a relentless tendency to get into trouble - kind of like his mother, really.

Okay, so there are a few 'seen-it, 'been there, done that' moments, but despite this, "The Mummy Returns" manages to pack in the action and keep your eyes glued to the screen. Best points: the story behind the murder of Pharaoh Seti I in the first movie involving Evy, Imhotep and Anck Su Namun - nice follow on there; the FANTASTIC battle between Anubis's army and the Medjai in the desert - great SFX! And the moment of Anck Su Namun betrayal - one of those rare times your heart goes out to the bad guy.

Most importantly, the movie is about FUN. Yes, there are things that defy reality, the plot isn't water-tight or rock-steady - so what? It's an action-packed, entertaining, SCI-FI movie with memorable characters, great actors that makes brilliant use of special effects and doesn't take itself too seriously. What more could a die-hard movie buff ask for?

Forget about any negative reviews of "The Mummy Returns", this sequel has more action, more special effects, more characters than the original. Although The Rock's appearance as The Scorpion King was exceedingly over-hyped, after the opening few minute intro, he only appears as an FX at the end of the movie, he and the rest of the diverse characters add depth and loads of fun. The real star of the flick is Oded Fehr as the fearless desert nomad Ardeth Bay. The final battle scene between his desert warriors and the evil Anubis creatures is the high point of the movie. Rachel Weisz' character Evie Carnahan takes a new dimension as she battles the returning Egyptian princess Anuck-Sun-Amoon played by Patricia Velasquez. As with the first installment, the action goes from Indiana Jones-type situation to situation until the final confrontation between O'Connell (Brendan Fraser), The Mummy - Imhotep (Arnold Vosloo) and The Scorpion King. Sure their are some unrealistic points to this movie, but when talking about resurrected Egyptian mummies and ancient gods, what exactly do you expect? This is fun exciting action.

Please...the mummy was one of the tackist movies i have ever seen. It had great speical effects and that is where i will stop on the positive commments. It had terrible acting and it also was not belivable. I thought that the movie was also supposed to be "scary" but i found myself laughing during the "scary" parts. One of Brendon Fraiser's worst movies since George of the Jungle.

Since this is a re-make, I assume that the story/plot was always this lame. BUT, there are some really entertaining special effects, though, not completely believable as most of the recent computer generated stuff.

There is kinda of a touching romance between the lovely young British girl and Brendan Fraser's character. However, the more enjoyable charasters were young lady's brother and a shady "Eastern" man, who was looking for some wealth and adventure on somebody else's expense.

The story of the Mummy itself and of some strange men in black, calling themselves Mummy guardians or something like that, is completely preposterous.

But, hey, there are three good looking men [Fraser, the Mummy, and that Israeli actor, who plays "the man is black"] in the film, so I am quite content just watching them do some pretty stupid things and say some stupid lines...

THIS WAS A GREAT VIDEO.IT WAS SUCH A GREAT BOOK THAT MY SISTER AND I WATCH IT ALMOST EVERY NIGHT.IT'S ABOUT A MUMMY THAT COMES TO LIFE IF SOME WORDS ARE READ.HE TRYS TO TAKE OVER THE WORLD...................
