Hotel for Dogs (2009)
these children are cheats, liars and thieves!!!
The worst thing about this film is that the main children are complete cheats, liars and thieves!!! It starts with them being fraudulent with a stone in a mobile phone box that they then shrink-wrap and sell for $27 - supposedly for dog food - burgers!. They steal a lot of stuff from their foster parents, and even lie to their friends!!!! They pile lie upon lie when they could easily have told the truth about their parents. I had to try to explain to my children that their behaviour was wrong and naughty - no excuses!!! None of it is really plausible - the abandoned hotel with all the stuff in it etc. Can't believe I paid good money and wasted time on this!!!
I truly cannot believe so many people condone this type of behaviour - it shows what a sorry state our morals really are in.
Norbit (2007)
hilarious - ha ha ha
well, all i will say is I laughed and laughed and laughed (a lot!!) don't expect Shakespeare - expect pure silliness; and yes, it is VERY unpolitically correct - full of "fat" jokes; but it is a FUNNY FILM!! Mr. Wong is probably my favourite character - this is Eddie Murphy at his best.
worth watching if you want a good laugh at a completely silly film - low expectations all the way!! I also loved "Hot Rod" - which is a completely silly film (some people consider these types of film are rubbish...) but I say they are thoroughly entertaining.
when you have watched a load of serious films, something like Norbit is very refreshing for a breath of fresh air - give it a try... just don't take it seriously.
