Another of Disney's efforts to create a quickie animated feature film out of one of its daily TV shows, this one plays like a low-rent reworking of Aladdin. Still, with Scrooge McDuck (voiced by Alan Young) and nephews Huey, Dewey, and Louie, there's fun to be had. And that includes the genie (voiced by comic Rip Taylor) and the villains voiced by Christopher Lloyd and Richard Libertini. The plot centers on Scrooge's search for lost treasure; the kids come up with the magic lamp with the genie in it, which is sought by an evil magician. Everyone gets into the act of making wishes and seeing them come true, until the bad guy gets a hold of the lamp. Mostly for young viewers. --Marshall Fine ... Read more

A Cute Movie, But Limited Viewability
I was always a fan of the DuckTales series as a child, but even then found this movie to be dissapointing. It's a cute movie, and has great characters to work with, but it lacks the charm and fast pace of the show. Kids may become restless watching it (I know I always did) as it tends to drag its feet a bit. Most of the jokes of the Geenie are stale and fall flat.
The familiarity of the classic characters does make it a good comfort movie. I don't care for the central villain, Merlock, who never comes across as particularly menacing, but his sidekick Dijon is a nice addition and provides some comic relief while fitting in with the true DuckTales style.
This movie is worth viewing once or twice, but you might opt to rent it rather than purchase it, as it's not something that will hold your interest if you watch it often.

A Very Good Movie
If you are a fan of the older disney movies, than Treasure of The Lost Lamp is a must have. Even today, I still love to watch this amazing movie. DuckTales Treasure of The Lost Lamp is great for all ages.

The only improvement needed is to make Treasure of The Lost Lamp a DVD. Even on the old VHS, it still deserves a 5 star rating.

i love it!!
this is the best & most underrated disney movie ever... love it as a kid... i wish i would see it ungain... i especially like the part where weddy stuffed animals come to live & attack the genie & run rampant... funny part & the rest of the movie is perfect... dont miss it if u love this stuff

Disney's feature-length DuckTale is a lot of fun
The first of Disney's attempts to make some quick bucks from a feature based on one of their daily TV series, "Treasure of the Lost Lamp" sprawned from the enjoyable 80's cartoon series DuckTales and is likewise animated by the TV department. In this big-screen goround, Scrogue McDuck (Alan Young) travels with his nephews and niece Huey, Dewey, Louie, and Webby (all Russi Taylor) in search of Collie Baba's legendary treasure. They are persued in this quest by powerhungry sorcerer Merlock (Christopher Lloyd) with the reluctant assistance of his henchmen Dijon (Richard Libertini) and escape with their lives - but without most of the treasure. The kids release a geenie in the lamp when Webby is cleaning her "teacup" and have fun making crazy wishes (such as turning Webby's stuffed toys into real live animals.) But Merlock, the geenie's former master, is hot on their trail and hell-bent on reclaiming the lamp and the power of the geenie at any cost.

All this plays out like a workprint version of Disney's classic "Aladdin," which debuted two years after the DuckTales release, but that's not nessesarily a bad thing. There's a lot to like about "Treasure of the Lost Lamp," and a lot of fun to be had here, including many comic moments. Also, the breezy 74-minute runtime is just right for young viewers' attention spans. While the visiuals and somewhat choppy editing are nothing compared to the Feature Animation-created Disney efforts of the time, the movie recaptures the look, feel, and spirit of the TV show, making it good fun for fans and a very worthile watch for others. In fact, it's best to think of this as an episode of the TV show with an extended runtime. When you use that point of view with this film, you'll have a lot of fun following the epiosodic adventures of the characters. The opening sequences while searching for (and finding) the treasure feel a lot like an animated Indiana Jones and it's a shame there wasn't more time put into this part of the story.

All in all "DuckTales" provides a solid, simple and entertaining story, great vocal delivery from all the cast (most noteable in this department is Christopher Lloyd as the villian), and a lot of laughs with genuine humor behind them. Highly reccomended viewing for a lazy afternoon, but this might not stand up to repeated showings unless you're a big fan of the show. If you are a fan, don't hesitate to buy this - you'll be pleased. Others who just want a taste of what the show was like, this will fit the bill nicely and is suited to a rental.

The best movie!
This movie was a childhood classic. This movie is funny, interesting, and it grabs your attention. It's hard to walk away from once you start it, and even though I've seen it dozen's of times there is always something new or something that you never really "saw" what it was. This is definetly a movie every kid should see....at least once. ... Read more

This hurts. This REALLY hurts. The film is so bad it's funny. It bastardizes classic Tom & Jerry humor, and has more in common with Tiny Toons than the original films. Worst of all, this hideous movie made them TALK. Avoid this thing at all costs.

It's Tom And Jerry Like You've Never Seen Them Before.
This is great movie. I saw it when I was about 7 years old. I'm 14 now and I still love it. Even giving Tom and Jerry voices didn't hurt the film. I highly recomend.

Not the real Tom & Jerry
Not only has Turner ruined movies by colorizing them, they have ruined Tom and Jerry by giving them voices! In this newly made cartoon, all we learn is that they have nothing interesting to say. Stick with the classic Tom & Jerry's and forget about this.

Deuce's Review of Silence of the Hams
Some people take comedies too seriously. The Silence of the Hams is a funny movie. Maybe not the funniest of spoofs, but it is worth watching. Another reason to watch this movie is too see
the great looking Charlene Tilton. I didn't particularly watch
Dallas, but I can see why it was a popular show and she was one of the reasons. Billy Zane is good as the monotone Jo Dee Fostar.
Dom Deluise is always Dom Deluise. I think my favorite actor in
the movie is Ezio Gregio. His bad or horrible Italian accent had
me cracking up.

The last review
I'm sorry, but the last review was hilarious. i hope it wasn't serious. this is obviously not "The Silence od the Lambs" this is just a horror movie spoof with very cheap and bad jokes. The reason i gave it 2 stars is because it's a horror movie spoof that came before "Scary Movie"

What was all the hype??
I read this was a great action thriller with a ton of suspense. It was terrible. I can't believe the Academy gives awards to flicks like this. I don't even recall seeing Jodie Foster or Anthony Perkins in any scenes either, what was that? Was Perkins pretending to be Delouise and was Foster Billy Zane or something. Ick! Anyway, terrible. I guess it's one of those "art" movies that are supposedly deep. I just thought it was stupid. The Hannibal sequel is much better and understandable! Stay away!! Don't believe the hype!!

Fun!
This movie is a load of fun to watch. It's campy and crazy and you have to watch it several time to pick up on all the nutty humor. I loved it!

This movie is terrible
You ever see a movie so bad it gives you a headache. Well this pile of junk gave my a terrible migrane just watching it, It is supose to be a parody of silence of the lambs. Mel Brooks parody of Bram Stokers Dracula "Dracula dead and loving it" is far superior and that is not saying much. This asinine garbage is painful to watch. ... Read more

Amazon.com

One of the biggest teases in film history, this film's sensational plot finds a young wife (Demi Moore) solicited for sex by a wealthy bachelor (Robert Redford), for which the latter offers to pay a cool million bucks to her and her underachieving husband (Woody Harrelson). The two accept Redford's deal, and their marriage is ruined. The twist in the film, though, is that the sin doesn't lie with the rich guy, but rather with this unfocused, immature, equivocating couple who would do such a thing, naively believing it would get their lives on track. Director Adrian Lyne, who caused an even greater stir by filming Lolita (the one starring Jeremy Irons), thus pulls a kind of thinking person's bait and switch, promising something tawdry and then turning the story around so its focus is on a rite of passage for the estranged spouses. Still, Lyne has some peculiarly garish ideas at times: the final disposition of that million dollars is like a joke out of Monty Python. --Tom Keogh ... Read more

Interesting but seriously flawed
INDECENT PROPOSAL is one of those formularized, supposedly heartfelt movies told in one mess of a tale. It starts off with a couple (Demi Moore and Woody Harrelson) struggling to make ends meet and just as they are about to drown in debt, they hit the jackpot in Vegas and then lose all their winnings again. As they are about to hit rock bottom, Robert Redford, a multi-billionaire, comes into their lives to give them a chance to get one million dollars. The catch: Redford "borrow" Woody's wife for one night. They agree, but this of course changes the course of their relationship forever. Woody Harrelson is truly miscast in a role too serious for him, making some scenes unintentionally funny. Yet the other two leads help keep this vechicle interesting. Despite the limited success of the script, it remains as a flawed but ambitious work.

A treasure
This movie is definitely a treasure, beautifully acted, beautifully filmed, its the kind of movie that stays with you. I can't say much about the movie that hasn't already been said except that I recommend the soundtrack also, the movie score is excellent.

How can any female viewer....
of this movie not be angry about this film? Come on, Robert Redford asks Woody Harrelson to sell him his wife for a million bucks. HELLO? Can't Demi have an opinion on that? In the billiard room scene the two men talk about Demi as if she is some sexual pleasuring device. Plus, there is a microphone in the picture for about 3 minutes.
Other then that, the film is entertaining, but that is only because Robert Redford is in it. Brilliant casting, who needs a million bucks reward to sleep with RR, especially when compared to Woody.
Demi knows that, Robert knows that and the (female) viewer knows that. Poor Woody marvels what went wrong for a bit too long to come over as at least decent intelligent.
Good thing is that we never see Demi and Robert "doing it".
All in all the movie works in favour of RR, and that is not a bad thing.
Yeah, I know my english is bad :)

I'd like to make a proposal,remake the movie with Demi & I !
Demi Moore is a housewife who goes to Vegas with her husband and loses all their money at the casino. A rich tycoon (Redford) offers a proposal. One night in bed with the man's wife (Demi) for a big wad of money. She accepts...however, after the smoke clears, the husband suspects that his wife is still seeing the tycoon & ends up divorcing her. She runs to the tycoon to start a new relationship. Will money buy her the happiness she seeks? Find out for yourself!

Was it really so indecent?
Adrian Lyne is truely a master at exploiting human emotions. In this powerful movie he adds the bonus of 'easy money' in the form of one million dollars to a stuggling couple if the lady is willing to spend just one night with him.. We are all to assume that one night is all the billionaire really wants. "The night will come and go but the money could last a lifetime" he explains, but in a true Coen brothers twist, money proves to be the root of all evil. The irony being, that once the night passes, and the relationship deteriorates, neither of them want the money. The only real flaw in the movie is the fact that neither member of this relatively intelligent couple are able to see what the billionaires alterior motive is.
All through this movie I kept wondering what I would do in the same situation. Now I'm not married but maybe if I were I would look at it differently but right now, I would probably take the money. The reason being that I think I'm mature and responsible enough to deal with it.... But then again, dont we all. ... Read more

Don't listen to robertcrabtree's review
Yeah, this really is a great movie! I'm a HUGE fan of the series
and let me say, Scooby-Doo and the Monster of Mexico is NO dissapointment to the series.

Scooby-Doo is a child's video hero.
I, for one, am glad that they keep making Scooby-Doo movies. The old stuff is still fun to watch and the new ones are great for me and my nearly 3 year old son. I have to admit though, El Chupacabra from this movie and the ghosts from The Boo Brothers is scary for my son to watch at nighttime so I don't offer it as a choice at night. In this day and age of foul mouths and violence on TV, I am glad to offer Scooby-Doo as a choice for my son.

Scooby Doo Flies High
Kids loved this one. Catchy music, lovely Mexican setting, several character who seem "suspicious" when scary things start happening. The flying statues scene from the ruins kind of confused my kids, but added to the mystery - did the statues really come to life or was it another trick? (the mystery is solved in the end) Scooby Doo and his crew have endured since my childhood and their newer movies are still entertaining for kids today.

Moderately Amusing
I don't know what it is, but as they get newer, the "new" Scooby-Doo movies lose their appeal. I wish they would just stick to the plots from the '60s, or just not make anymore new movies at all. I mean, it is nice that they're trying to come up with new ideas, but they could at least doo a little better.

Jeenkys! How many dumb Scooby movies do we need!?!?!?!?!?!
I know this reveiw might offend all you Scoob lovers but here it goes:
I think this whole series was dumb from start to finish (if there is a finish). I mean, a Great Dane scared as easily as a 2 day old kitten!?! This series is an insult to all Danes! A real G. Dane would tear these "ghosts and monsters" to pieces without thinking twice!! And how many of these "Scaredy-Dooby-Doo" features do we need anyway, huh!?!?!

Shannon Whirry is worth seeing
This is a fair B-movie. Nothing spectacular and the theme has been done to death: Obsessed stalker captures target and subjects her to his fantasies. It's been done better in the gripping Tattoo, starring Maud Adams and the quirky Spanish flick Tie Me Up, Tie Me Down, starring Victoria Abril.
But Shannon Whirry is stunning, even before she removes her clothes and reveals her marvelous assets. And she can act, with dramatic flair and wit. She is at first scared, then angry, and finally turns the tables on her captor through the power of her beauty and sensuality.
I watched the unrated VHS release, so the R-rated version might have disappointing cuts.

Not Whirry at her best...
...but her bust is at its best, as always. Not a top-of-the-line evil nude kinkfest from Shannon Whirry, but it might turn the crank of some of you.

(4+) Cute and Clever - Two Romances In One Movie
After reading the mixed reviews, we were very pleasantly surprised by this movie. Luke Wilson is cast as Alex, a novelist who is unable to fulfill his contract with his publisher (Rob Reiner) due to writer's block. His task suddenly assumes a great deal of urgency when two enforcers pay him a visit and give him a deadline of thirty days to pay off a gambling debt of $100,000 or be killed. Since they torched his computer during their appearance, he decides to dictate the story to Emma, a stenographer played by Kate Hudson. This also allows him to concentrate on the creative task confronting him, although a fair amount of the comedy involves her commentary on his efforts.

The novel is a 1924 tale involving Adam Shipley (also played by Luke Wilson), an Andover student who takes a summer job tutoring the children of Polina Delacroix (Sophie Marceau). The situation quickly becomes the classic story of a love triangle , with Polina faced with the dilemma of having chosen to marry for money but meanwhile increasing attracted to Adam. As Adam schemes how to become wealthy, his infatuation for Polina keeps him from recognizing his attraction for the various incarnations of her servant (the character keeps morphing as the story is rewritten), so Kate Hudson becomes the Swede Ylva, then the German Elsa, followed by the Spaniard Eldora before ending up as the American Anna. This is all done in a very clever and lighthearted manner.

Meanwhile, the novel's scenes are interspersed with the development of the relationship betwen Alex and Emma during their increasing frantic attempt to meet the Alex's deadline. And not at all surprisingly, their real lives intersect with the plotline of the novel. Emma increasingly wonders if there is a real life Polina? Why is Alex as afraid of commitment as his characters? The cast gives the movie just the right feel, and Rob Reiner does a great job as both producer and director as well as in his small but crucial supporting role. There is enough time for the story to develop, but the various elements of the story aren't stretched out unnecessarily.

This is a very clever, quite funny film. The humor is often low key (as in the instance of the law firm and its partners), rather than the slapstick hilarity that occasions raucous laughter. Thus, when not actually laughing we were almost constantly smiling. The key point is that the story and the techniques that are used to tell it work well in my estimation, rather than seeming to be forced into service to tell the story. I truly enjoyed the multiple roles played by Luke Wilson and Kate Hudson and their various romantic entanglements. It was especially fun to see Ms. Hudson alternate between Emma and her serial incarnations as Ylva, Elsa, Eldora, and Anna. And much to my surprise, the ending was a perfect conclusion to both the novel and the film.

Engaging Leads, But the Story Is Too Mechanical
"Alex & Emma" is actually a remake of the 1997 UK-Hungarian film 'The Gambler' starring Michael Gambon and Johdi May. And the original is about the Russian writer Dostoevskey, and what happened to him while writing the novella of that title. You should keep this in mind, because "A & E" suffers from the wrong-headed judgment of modernizing the setting of the original which was deep in the 19th century.

The story of this romantic comedy is, simply put, "When Alex meets Emma (or vice virsa)" directed by Rob Reiner, who knows a few things about this genre. Alex (Luke Wilson) is a writer stumbled on the writer's block, and in debt. He must make money in 30 days, and to do so, he hires a stenographer Emma (Kate Hudson), and attempts to finish writing a novel.

The novel develops, thanks to the unexpected inspiration from Emma. It is about Adam, a tutor living in the 1920s, who falls in love with a French lady Polina (Sophie Marceau). From then on, we see two stories one after the other, both influencing each other.

NOW, the good thing about "A & E" is that Kate Hudson (who plays five roles in this film) is delightful to see. Luke Wilson is also good and likable, and they make a couple of man and woman who must fall in love with each other. And we know it, and welcome it.

BUT the problem is, as I said before, the setting. In the original "Gambler", Dostoevskey had to submit his rights for publishing his novels to the greedy publisher, not his life as depicted here. No one believes in the central story of "Alex & Emma" when it talks about the 30 days limit and being killed. Think about it. Some mobsters are after you, and they want the money back. However, they burn (yes, literally burn) your lap-top PC, which only prevents your scheme of returning money.

That's a too obvious and tactless device on the filmmaker's side to have Alex hire Emma. And in the original, the stenographer has no other place to go except the writer (it was the 19th century, and women's jobs were quite limited). In "Alex and Emma," though Emma needs money (she comes by bus, see?), and she knows Alex is broke because of gambling, she still decides to work for him as long as 30 days without being even paid in advance! And to make matters worse, what Alex writes is not funny at all, but still we are to believe this "story within story" is to be a hit to pay back all the debt. Sorry, but I can't believe it.

"Alex & Emma" is engaging only when it forgets its plot, which is a poor excuse for bringing the leads together. And Luke Wilson and Kate Hudson do their jobs quite nicely. Pity that the characters are empty, and the story unbelievable. "When Harry met Sally ..." are about real people. The same cannot be said about "Alex & Emma."

Completely and utterly terrible
I wanted to like this movie; honestly I did. I ignored the horrible film critic reviews and the lack of hype, sure that somewhere in the premise of this movie there would be a glimmer of interest, spark, or maybe even just a little bit of good acting. So... I took a risk and rented this movie.
Bad idea. Bad, bad idea. I don't know which I want back more: my $4 rental fee or my two hours.
The only, and I mean only, decent thing about this film is that you get to look at Luke Wilson for an extended period of time. Enjoy it, because if you make it to the end of the film, even his cuteness may not keep you from hating him for subjecting you to his aversive non-acting for so long.
Kate Hudson is also cute, in the puppy and kitty sense of the word, but she's also utterly forgettable. One word describes it best: bleh.
Don't get me started about the circa-1920 plot-within-a-plot, which is the only thing that could possibly be worse than the present-day part of the movie.
Of course, this is a romantic comedy, so somebody has to fall in love, but by the time you reach that obvious conclusion, you simply don't care. Don't worry, the characters don't act like they care either.
Few films inspire me to get on the Internet and write a scathing review, but if I can keep just one person from wasting their time and brain cells by watching this insipid flick, it'll be worth it.

Avoid Like the Plague
Luke Wilson and Kate Hudson--both of whom star, independent of one another, in two movies I love, Almost Famous and The Royal Tenenbaums--were painful to watch as they tried to breathe life into a truly terrible script.

What was Rob Reiner thinking? The director of such splendid fare as A Few Good Men, The American President, When Harry Met Sally, The Princess Bride, and This is Spinal Tap appears to have lost his touch--he hasn't made a good film since 1995.

But I blame Jeremy Leven, best known for the dud The Legend of Bagger Vance, for writing this movie in the first place. Who could have possibly thought that a movie about writing a book under threat of death due to gambling debts--and falling in love with your mouthy stenographer--would make for an entertaining movie? (OK, so maybe the premise doesn't sound that bad. The execution is.)

Lines are delivered without any conviction. The mildly humorous convention of changing the appearance of the book's characters to reflect how Wilson is rewriting it works once, maybe twice, but begins to grate by the third try. The denouement is silly--in a very unfunny way--and the ending is both hokey and overblown through one of the most cringe-inducing closing scenes in recent memory.

Please, follow the advice in the headline and avoid this film like the plague.

fluff
Alex and Emma is a fluffy little comedy with two relatively charming leads, and a tolerable, entertaining plot which is pleasant enough for a saturday night in.
Sure, don't expect anything intelligent or strikingly original, but, its no worse than most of the other romantic fluff that comes out, and its a pleasant enough diversion that will keep you distracted for an hour and a half. ... Read more

This is great movie. I saw it when I was about 7 years old. I'm 14 now and I still love it. Even giving Tom and Jerry voices didn't hurt the film. I highly recomend.

Not the real Tom & Jerry
Not only has Turner ruined movies by colorizing them, they have ruined Tom and Jerry by giving them voices! In this newly made cartoon, all we learn is that they have nothing interesting to say. Stick with the classic Tom & Jerry's and forget about this.

Interesting but seriously flawed
INDECENT PROPOSAL is one of those formularized, supposedly heartfelt movies told in one mess of a tale. It starts off with a couple (Demi Moore and Woody Harrelson) struggling to make ends meet and just as they are about to drown in debt, they hit the jackpot in Vegas and then lose all their winnings again. As they are about to hit rock bottom, Robert Redford, a multi-billionaire, comes into their lives to give them a chance to get one million dollars. The catch: Redford "borrow" Woody's wife for one night. They agree, but this of course changes the course of their relationship forever. Woody Harrelson is truly miscast in a role too serious for him, making some scenes unintentionally funny. Yet the other two leads help keep this vechicle interesting. Despite the limited success of the script, it remains as a flawed but ambitious work.

A treasure
This movie is definitely a treasure, beautifully acted, beautifully filmed, its the kind of movie that stays with you. I can't say much about the movie that hasn't already been said except that I recommend the soundtrack also, the movie score is excellent.

How can any female viewer....
of this movie not be angry about this film? Come on, Robert Redford asks Woody Harrelson to sell him his wife for a million bucks. HELLO? Can't Demi have an opinion on that? In the billiard room scene the two men talk about Demi as if she is some sexual pleasuring device. Plus, there is a microphone in the picture for about 3 minutes.
Other then that, the film is entertaining, but that is only because Robert Redford is in it. Brilliant casting, who needs a million bucks reward to sleep with RR, especially when compared to Woody.
Demi knows that, Robert knows that and the (female) viewer knows that. Poor Woody marvels what went wrong for a bit too long to come over as at least decent intelligent.
Good thing is that we never see Demi and Robert "doing it".
All in all the movie works in favour of RR, and that is not a bad thing.
Yeah, I know my english is bad :)

I'd like to make a proposal,remake the movie with Demi & I !
Demi Moore is a housewife who goes to Vegas with her husband and loses all their money at the casino. A rich tycoon (Redford) offers a proposal. One night in bed with the man's wife (Demi) for a big wad of money. She accepts...however, after the smoke clears, the husband suspects that his wife is still seeing the tycoon & ends up divorcing her. She runs to the tycoon to start a new relationship. Will money buy her the happiness she seeks? Find out for yourself!

Was it really so indecent?
Adrian Lyne is truely a master at exploiting human emotions. In this powerful movie he adds the bonus of 'easy money' in the form of one million dollars to a stuggling couple if the lady is willing to spend just one night with him.. We are all to assume that one night is all the billionaire really wants. "The night will come and go but the money could last a lifetime" he explains, but in a true Coen brothers twist, money proves to be the root of all evil. The irony being, that once the night passes, and the relationship deteriorates, neither of them want the money. The only real flaw in the movie is the fact that neither member of this relatively intelligent couple are able to see what the billionaires alterior motive is.
All through this movie I kept wondering what I would do in the same situation. Now I'm not married but maybe if I were I would look at it differently but right now, I would probably take the money. The reason being that I think I'm mature and responsible enough to deal with it.... But then again, dont we all. ... Read more

Offbeat and Fresh Elvis Mockumentary
Unlike some of my fellow reviewers, I thought this offbeat little film was an indie gem.

While there are not many bust-a-gut laughs, the film sports a tounge-in-cheek, quiet humor built from the absurdity of people who, decades after the King died in 1977, are today still just as fanatical (or even more fanatical), about their idol.

The story is what I call a "mockumentary". That is, a film shot as if it were a documentary, but designed to lampoon it's own subject. These films are best when they take themselves seriously to the nth degree, like this one does. Basically, this is a mockumentary about making a documentary.

A down on his luck film maker is offered a gig making a documentary about people who have sighted Elvis, and possibly uncovering the King's hiding place. The film follows the story of the director's attempt to make his film while running a gauntlet of obstacles, including a greedy, know-nothing producer, her annoying assistant, a psychotic writer, an insane precognative bride of Elvis, crooked lawyers, and even someone who carries a framed Ding Dong that Elvis supposedly took a bite of!

Along the way, we get glimpses of a few famous faces, like Rip Taylor, Vicki Lawrence, and Mr. Blackwell. Fred Willard and his real-life spouse have a great scene, where Fred is cleaning his pool while wearing an Elvis jumpsuit he bought at a Hollywood boutique. He didn't want to get his "regular pool-cleaning clothes" dirty!

Like Star Trek fans and UFO believers, there is a large group of normal people interested in the topic of Elvis. Also like Star Trek fans and UFO believers, there are among them a fringe element of overzealous crazies that give the rest of the group a bad name.

Sadly, the truth is that everyone "interviewed" in this send-up is frighteningly true to life. While showing us a parody, the creators of "Elvis is Alive" cleverly show us characters who *could* be real people, lost in a sea of Elvis worship. And that's what the film is really about; people who are so wrapped up in their hobby, that they have lost all touch with common sense, reality, and in some cases, even sanity.

While the film is a bit offbeat, indie film fans will love it. Elvis fans may or may not, depending on whether they can take a little fun poked at them.

A Waste of Video Tape
I watched this movie last week. I thought it would be a great spoof documentary. I didn't think it was funny. I didn't think it was original. In my opinion, It was just another creation by someone who was trying to make a buck by using Elvis as subject matter.

The lead actor (if you can call him that) will annoy you. When he started talking, I thought it was a woman. He leads you on a pointless journey through various bad characters who think Elvis is alive. Bad acting, bad music, bad from start to finish.

The only thing I thought had any worth was the great artwork on the cover. The copy I watched, had a flasher-type cover (one that creates movement when turned from side to side). Worth maybe a $1.

This movie is a waste of video tape. If you find Elvis fanatics funny and fasinating, watch a real Elvis documentary. It will provide bigger laughs then this poor spoof.

Don't waste your money on this one folks.

PS - The one star I gave this video is for the packaging.

Elvis is Alive, I swear I just saw him eating a ding dong
When I first read the title I thought it was going to be about Elvis being alive. It's not. Like other mock doc's it is fake but that is what makes it work. The fake Documentary filmmaker leads the audience across America meeting one crazy person after another in search of Elvis. Even though both the filmmaker and the people he interviews are not real they are close enough to reality to be very funny. It's fast pace and underbelly Hollywood subplot keeps the film alive more than Elvis. There is not one note of Elvis music in the film but a very cool soundtrack and score, that I think should be released on CD. A very fun and insane movie, good for the whole family even kids can watch it. It would have been nice to see this movie at the theater.

ENJOYED THE MEDIUMS
the film is a bit of a run around , and i would have liked it better if there had been more interactions with the psychic mediums. good concept but is elvis alive? the psychics could have told us! ... Read more

Deuce's Review of Silence of the Hams
Some people take comedies too seriously. The Silence of the Hams is a funny movie. Maybe not the funniest of spoofs, but it is worth watching. Another reason to watch this movie is too see
the great looking Charlene Tilton. I didn't particularly watch
Dallas, but I can see why it was a popular show and she was one of the reasons. Billy Zane is good as the monotone Jo Dee Fostar.
Dom Deluise is always Dom Deluise. I think my favorite actor in
the movie is Ezio Gregio. His bad or horrible Italian accent had
me cracking up.

The last review
I'm sorry, but the last review was hilarious. i hope it wasn't serious. this is obviously not "The Silence od the Lambs" this is just a horror movie spoof with very cheap and bad jokes. The reason i gave it 2 stars is because it's a horror movie spoof that came before "Scary Movie"

What was all the hype??
I read this was a great action thriller with a ton of suspense. It was terrible. I can't believe the Academy gives awards to flicks like this. I don't even recall seeing Jodie Foster or Anthony Perkins in any scenes either, what was that? Was Perkins pretending to be Delouise and was Foster Billy Zane or something. Ick! Anyway, terrible. I guess it's one of those "art" movies that are supposedly deep. I just thought it was stupid. The Hannibal sequel is much better and understandable! Stay away!! Don't believe the hype!!

Fun!
This movie is a load of fun to watch. It's campy and crazy and you have to watch it several time to pick up on all the nutty humor. I loved it!

This movie is terrible
You ever see a movie so bad it gives you a headache. Well this pile of junk gave my a terrible migrane just watching it, It is supose to be a parody of silence of the lambs. Mel Brooks parody of Bram Stokers Dracula "Dracula dead and loving it" is far superior and that is not saying much. This asinine garbage is painful to watch. ... Read more

make B movies look good
Lots of fast action and great fight scenes form don the dragon. I think it was really creative the way that the big baddy talks without moving his lips at all. Creative plot, better acting than you would expect and a few sex scenes for the chronically bored

Could have been better
Okay, I love science fiction, in fact it's a religion for me! However, the plot of this movie was weak and it seems that it was made with only two things in mind: lots of good martial arts action and Athena Massey's sexy bod being shown off. They could've done so much more with this idea, but failed. The only real reason to see this movie, sad as it sounds, is the hot nudity.

Science fiction action, better than "Virtuosity"!
When a lab experiement goes wrong and the villain from a virtual reality police training game is cloned into reality, border cop David Quarry (Don "The Dragon" Wilson) must track him down before he can clone ALL of the VR villains... even though Quarry has never won against the villain in VR. Quarry's only clue - A sexy woman with a secret... she's a cloned VR character, too! Similar plot to "Virtuosity", but not as dumb as the Denzel Washington film. Michael Dorn from TNG is the VR villain's voice. ... Read more
