VH1's ILL-ustrated just plain rocks. They take every news making celebrity and completely make fun of them. Every character is overexaggerated and really sums up the true person. Michael Jackson as a neurotic, self-absorbed person, George Bush as an idiot child(personally my favorite sketches involve him) who is lead around by Dick Cheney, and Christina Aguilera as a white girl who think she's black and hot, but is really white and skanky. It works on so many levels.

It's like Punk-d, Family Guy, Simpsons, Chappelle's Show, and South Park all rolled into one. Just un-freaking believable. I highly recommend this to anyone who has a sense of humor and can laugh at reality. 4.5 stars out of 5.

I will not spoil the movie for anyone, but Revolutions comes close but doesn't strike the iron. What was billed as the third most anticipated movie of the year (after Reloaded and Return of the King) was a letdown for what I was expecting. But let me make it clear that rarely ever does a movie so hyped live up to its billing, so while I was disappointed, Revolutions does indeed plunge down the rabbit hole.

Revolutions started slow, I rode the edge of my seat waiting for the action and the plot to pick up, think the time spent at Zion during Reloaded for a more accurate description, boring and slow to point. It wasn't until about an hour in that it really started to get interesting, and even then it spiked up and down until the war really began. With the two main point lines, Neo and the war on Zion rarely crisscrossing, I found myself wondering what happened to Neo during the 30 minute Zion sequence.

However, let me make it known that Revolutions is quite a good film. Unlike Reloaded, you can't as easily pick out the digitally animated scenes. And compared to Reloaded, you're not scratching your head quite as often. More than once during the war on Zion you find yourself thinking if you were right there, and the realism is fantastic.

Overall, I rated Revolutions a 7/10. But make this clear, do not wait for the DVD, see this movie as quickly as possible. This is one of four trilogies that should only be seen in theaters, following Indiana Jones, Star Wars IV, V, VI as well as I, II, and upcoming III, and finally Lord of the Rings. Slight tip, watch the Animatrix shorts that prelude the Matrix, then the rest of the Animatrix, then Reloaded, then go see Revolutions, that will not disappoint.

After seeing this movie last night on opening weekend, I was scared out of my wits. The movie is like other M. Night Shyamalan movies, but has the same sense of set-up as the Sixth Sense. You know exactly when something scary is going to happen, yet you still jump every time.

I thought that Signs did very well for such a small cast. Not many people were used at all and Mel Gibson does a tremendous job of taking charge of the film as his own. Joaquinn Phoenix does a good job in his role as a supporting actor. The kids do a great job offering humor in parts when the plot/dialogue lacks. All in all, the movie is a great work of cinema. Its impossible not to jump when Shyamalan wants you to. I highly recommend going to see this movie, it is definitely worth the $6.
