Making a $100 million remake of the ancient, endearingly doofy cartoon SPEED RACER was a risky investment from the git-go. Even casting class actors like Susan Sarandon and Christina Ricci won't pay off if the film turns out to be over-long, overly vivid and vomit-inducing. Yep, early word on SPEED is decidedly unkind — and here's your chance to add to it, by CLICKING HERE...
It's got an ad campaign about as appealing as fingernails on a blackboard, a storyline that's both stale and cynical, and two lead actors who between them have 3 previous RAZZIE® nominations. So WHAT HAPPENS IN VEGAS has a stench about it sight unseen. Add in the fact that early word on it at the IMDb ranks it as being as rank as it looks, and VEGAS gets our vote as this week's 2nd Worst of the Weak. To join our dis-cussion, CLICK HERE.
Exhaustively researched and up-dated weekly, our Complete List of Eligible Releases is the Definitive Source on everything released in any given year. By December 31, last year's list had 519 titles.

Bette Davis' farewell to Warner Bros after 18 years under contract was a film so abhorent to its star that she threatened to quit halfway through filming. As an over-sexed, badly be-wigged half-breed in BEYOND THE FOREST Davis gives one of the all-time great bad performances. Many critics said she was doing a parody of her own screen persona here. This rarely shown, so over-the-top it's hilarious misfire will be screened as part of the L.A. County Art Museum's centennary tribute to Bette. It shows at 9:15pm/PST on Friday, May 9.
This week's DVD releases are a literal embarrassment of riches for Voting RAZZIE® Members: No less than FOUR titles of interest to us debut on DVD today.

Also on the Destined-4-the-Remainder-Bin List are OVER HER DEAD BODY, FIRST SUNDAY and 2007's P.S. I LOVE YOU. Add 'em to your Netflix queue now!
