... View MoreThe film creates a perfect balance between action and depth of basic needs, in the midst of an infertile atmosphere.
... View MoreYes, absolutely, there is fun to be had, as well as many, many things to go boom, all amid an atmospheric urban jungle.
... View MoreI enjoyed watching this film and would recommend other to give it a try , (as I am) but this movie, although enjoyable to watch due to the better than average acting fails to add anything new to its storyline that is all too familiar to these types of movies.
... View MoreAround the Horn is hilarious. The host does a great job humiliating everyone with the "mute" and a point deduction. It's a comical but informative show. You don't get as much information as if you watched Sportscenter, but it still does a good job and makes me laugh.I like it better than Pardon the Interruption because it doesn't sound nearly as scripted as PTI does. At least sometimes the "experts" agree on topics on Around the Horn. PTI is just 2 guys showing both sides of all the biggest stories.Good show to tune in to and get the sports news and some laughs after a day of work.
... View MoreThis could be considered a conspiracy theory, but ever since Woody Paige left the Denver Post for New York and became a regular on Cold Pizza he wins almost ALL the time, and when he doesn't win he's usually in the showdown. I like Woody Paige, but his is not the only opinion around and Tony Reali doesn't understand that. The other panelist's have compelling arguments too, and I enjoy then all. Tim Cowlishaw, Michael Smith, Kevin Blackistone, A.J. Adande are all good too....did I mention Jay Mariotti? The show gets on my nerves anymore with Woody getting special treatment (by that I mean bonus points to keep him in the game). It's almost enough to keep me from watching. Anyone that watches this show keep this in mind and see if I'm wrong.
... View MoreThis show is probably the best sports show on television. When you get tired of the repetitive Linda Cohn or John Andersen commentary on SportsCenter, or you don't like all of the shouting involved with "Pardon the Interruption," you may want to give this show a shot.Woody Paige is very funny and has some great banter with Jay Mariotti, Michael Smith, Tim Cowlishaw, and the like. The guys who return day after day are some of the best debaters on television and are very amusing. Even the ones, like Bob Ryan or J.A. Adande, who pop up every once in a while are amusing. The obscure ones like Adam Schefter or Mark Kiszla are not that entertaining, but thankfully, they rarely come up.Max Keller was borderline annoying, but he is no longer on the show. Although I miss the "Disembodied Voice," the Tony Reali era is more entertaining than the previous one. All in all, this is a very entertaining show. It can hold my attention better than "PTI" because of the scoring, and it is less repetitive than the same old commentary on SportsCenter's top plays. This show is so fast-paced and interesting that, once you become a fan, you find it irresistibly funny and hard to turn away.
... View MoreWhen I started watching this show in the fall of 2003, like many people I originally watched it as a lead-in to "Pardon the Interruption". I was entranced by the hilarious cast of characters, including the smarmy-but-kinda cool Max, the exceptionally obnoxious Disembodied Voice (Bill Wolff), and, of course, the Immortal WOODY PAIGE! Until early February, everything was good as gold, and this show was challenging PTI for my favorite sports show, until Max left and Tony "Stat Boy" Reali came in as a seemingly temporary replacement (though six months later he's still around. . . THE HORN!). To be honest, I can stand Stat Boy, though he doesn't have Kellerman's sense of humor, and his sparring with Woody isn't anywhere near as entertaining as Kellerman's. But Max's leaving was merely an indicator of what was to come. When Max began his "I, Max" for FSN, Michael Holley and the Disembodied Voice eventually left. But Woody and Jay, the backbones of the show, remained. There was the Dream Team of Woody, Jay, Bill Plaschke, and Michael Holley, disrupted of course with the latter's leaving, but Bob Ryan/Michael Smith were good, and the Dallas guys were okay in small doses. Woody remains extremely entertaining, with his indescribably wacky sight gags (eating a raw steak onscreen? His talking toy parrot?) and dead-on humor, while Jay, though annoying, at least provides a good counterpoint to Woody (who didn't laugh when they showed up together at the Super Bowl, on what I believe was Max's last show?).However, let me bring you up to speed on the current situation (as of 8/12/04): Now Woody and Mariotti are going to disappear for a month, covering the Olympics. Add to that the fact that Plaschke hasn't been seen in a few weeks now, and it's obvious that there's no earthly reason to watch this show for a good while. It's going to be a long month . ..So I'll classify ATH into three eras: the Kellerman Era, the Post-Kellerman Stat Boy Era, and the Current Situation. And my ratings for this show go thusly: (on a scale of 1 to 10) 9.5/7.5/4
