White Chicks (2004) was okay. It wasn't as funny as I had hoped, but there were a few good bits. I liked when they were breakdancing and that's about it. There's a good bit in the car where they are getting down to some rap music, and the guy getting down in the club with the whistle. That's about it though. I think we had Nick on a suicide watch for a little bit because it was not going so well. I don't think the Wayans do a good white girl impression at all, and they don't seem to know what it is about girls in general that is funny. Maybe if they had David Alan Greer... I mean there's a lot more material out there, go see Legally Blonde or something if you want to see what's funny about blonde girls. As IF!

After the Sunset (2004) was not as good as the
The tailor of Panama. The movie moved too slowly, and I really thought the main characters were both schmucks. Salma Hayek was too good for the role she had to play. Lots of gratuitous cleavage shots, for both men and women. I don't think Pierce Brosnan buttoned on a shirt the whole movie, and there was a lot of gay innuendo that would have been funnier if Roger Moore was involved. If you're looking for a story about paradise and hiding diamonds in the rough, I would recommend
Boat Trip instead, because its what you do on a gay cruise. (wave hands!). Seriously, there was very little entertainment going on here, mainly because the plot really dragged on and the character development was really choppy.
