Posted August 12, 200619 yr http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/3/35/Nachopost.jpg It got some dodgy reviews in the USA, but now its getting good reviews in the UK Press. so who is right?
August 12, 200619 yr Author in america: Nacho Libre appears to have been made exclusively for Jack Black fans. Clearly many critics are not among them. One who is is Carina Chocano of the Los Angeles Times, who writes: "Black is a gifted physical comedian with surprisingly expressive eyes and an even more surprising tender streak." But Chocano is in the minority. The headline of Liam Lacey's review in the Toronto Globe & Mail effectively sums up most of the others: "Muy estupido -- and just not that funny." Fellow Torontonian Geoff Pevere of The Star was equally unimpressed, writing: "While I certainly wasn't expecting much from Nacho Libre ... I certainly wasn't expecting the sensation of embalming fluid coursing through my veins that set in within 10 minutes. Make no mistake: you can feel your heart rate declining." Kyle Smith in the New York Post predicts that "half of the audience (at least) is going to sit in bewildered silence. The rest will laugh roughly every 8.4 seconds." And Michael Phillips in the Chicago Tribune concludes that the movie's just not something to get worked up over. "The film is easy to take and easy to forget," he writes

August 17, 200619 yr i seen the trailer and from that, it just looks plain stupid, going to watch it anyway!
August 22, 200619 yr Author i seen the trailer and from that, it just looks plain stupid, going to watch it anyway! it is plain stupid but then again not as daft as Snakes on a plane (then again thats just plane stupid innit :lol:) its quite amazing its taken anyone this long to do a film like this as in the world of weird, Mexican Lucha libre films, Phillipeno midget films and German Nunspolation have long been a cult thing and its no wonder someone has postmodenised them altogether for a mainstream comedy film :lol: http://www.axelmusic.com/resources/covers/8/843276012199.jpg http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/2/27/Showdown.jpg it has some good sniggers in it, but not as funny as snakes on a plane. http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/e/ec/RenProfile.jpghttp://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/9/9b/StimpyProfile.jpg maybe its one to watch pissed or in a ren and stimpy marathon (as its just essentially a live action version of that, but with the roles reversed :lol:) http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/f/f1/Powdered_toast.jpg from left: Jack Black, Héctor Jiménez and Cesar Gonzalez as Ramses
