    future cult classic

    There's definately a lot going on in this film and I think it works brilliantly. They've managed to show/spoof all of the different lifestyles that make up Los Angeles from Drag Queens to Gangsters. Its entertaining and sure to have cult status in years to come.

    "Citizen Kane" has nothing on "Wasabi Tuna"

    I was fortunate enough to have had dinner was some of the biggest names in the business recently. Francis Ford Coppola, Steven Spielberg, Spike Lee and McG were all in attendance. The topic? "Wasabi Tuna". All of us had seen the 15 minute snippet recently showcased at Cannes. We all agreed it was a shame that the clip had not received the Palm D'Orr as it was far superior to that "Farenheit 9/11" nonsense. Francis, probably best known for his "Godfather" trilogy has decided to get out of the movie biz as he could not do any better than "Wasabi". "The way the brilliant Fox combined gay stereotypes with gangster humor cannot be matched" he said. Steven chimed in, "I thought I had portrayed the struggle of a people well in "Schindler's List", but Fox's brilliant dialogue of east LA gangsters makes my film look amateurish". Spike and McG then got into an argument over which action sequence (the repeated asian gymnastics scene or the hilarious drive-by scene) was the new standard in action comedy film. Steven was able to end the argument by declaring that no film before or after will ever be as amazingly written or acted as "Wasabi Tuna". McG then admitted he was considering cribbing a few of the camera moves for his next film. If you see only one film this year, you have to see "Wasabi Tuna". It is the most talked about film of the year (even Quentin Tarantino couldn't stop talking about it). Critics have praised it, and I have even heard reports of people seeing it up to 10 times in a row. Watch out Academy Awards...here comes "Wasabi Tuna"!

    screwball comedy with punchy one liners

    I saw the film when it played in theaters, I thought it was actually funny in a madcap screwball kind of way. Particularly, I found Alanna Ubach both charming and enchanting. Tim Meadows was great as well (much better than he was in The Cookout) and the film has a great supporting cast of faces you will recognize. I've read some of the comments on here and I think some of the other viewers didn't take the film for what it is: light fluff meant to entertain, not socially relevant. But that's my two cents. By the way, this is the first time in a long time where I've seen something that has Anna Nicole Smith in it where she's actually entertaining, and self deprecating, not irritating.

    Hollwood Hails the Next Great Writer Producer !!!

    Celia Fox Hollywood's new "It Girl" has truly done it with the brilliance of her new feature Wasabi Tuna. Seldom has a first feature given us a writer / producer of this magnitude, talent and vision. Wasabi Tuna is pure camp at it's finest. A virtual laugh riot from the opening frame, with characters and dialogue surpassing the work of Peters, Brooks, and countless more, it is safe to say that we have welcomed a new era in comedy. With the amount of buzz this film generated at Cannes (even surpassing the

    latest Michael Moore offering in many eyes on the panel) we can only look

    forward to the sophomore effort from Ms. Fox rumored to be an action / comedy with top liners Brad Pitt and Catherine Zeta Jones already expressing interest. Wasabi Tuna 's laughs are bigger than Brando!!.
