Beer For My Horses, on dvd November 11, 2008, is not really my type of movie, but I can respect it for what it is and the audience that it targets. This comedy features famous Country Music singer/songwriter Toby Keith as a writer and actor. Apparently, the idea for the movie had something to do with a popular song he has done.

This movie has a story that I feel is on-par with similar films. The script has plenty of comedy in the dialogue which is likely a big thanks to comedian Rodney Carrington who worked with Toby Keith on the script. My guess is that if you have a hunting dog, drive a pickup truck with a GIT-R-DONE license plate, and own more guns than is at your local sheriff's office, you are probably a prime candidate for loving this comedy.

Beer For My Horses on dvd has a cast that is very entertaining to watch. Now this may not be a standard Hollywood A-list cast but it is an A-list cast if you are from the south or are a southerner at heart. The cast does an great job with the script and story that they have to work with. Along with Toby Keith, the cast features a nice selection of musical artists, actors, and comedians. Some more notable names from the cast are Rodney Carrington, Ted Nugent, Brit Morgan, Barry Corbin, Willie Nelson, Chris Browning, Claire Forlani, and Gina Gershon. I would even recommend watching the movie just to see this group of talent all together in a single movie if the names above are names you love.

The story of Beer For My Horses has our main character, a deputy sheriff, and his friend chasing off after drug dealers who have kidnapped his girlfriend. The story itself is nothing to applaud, but it does offer for opportunities to make jokes and do what this movie was meant to, be funny.

The Short Version: Beer For My Horses on dvd is a comedy that should appeal to those who enjoy southern humor and want to see what is a fun and entertaining cast grace the screen.

Reaper: Season 1

Reaper: Season 1, on dvd November 4, 2008, was an enjoyable watch for me. This television comedy features director Kevin Smith and it really shows he hasn't lost his touch. A solid cast featuring some younger talent combined with a story that is quite unique to television makes for an enjoyable watch.

Reaper: Season One has a cast that is very entertaining to watch and fit their roles well. The main character Sam, played by the fun-to-watch Brett Harrison, really shines as a reason to keep watching from episode to episode. Tyler Labine and Rick Gonzalez do a wonderful job as Sam's friends, providing plenty of humor and acting their parts very well. Missy Peregrym plays the beautiful girl that Sam holds as his heart's desire and she does a good job of filling her role perfectly. Perhaps one of the most interesting characters, and one that I have trouble deciding whether to love or hate, is The Devil (yes, the lord of the underworld) whom is played with great talent by long time actor Ray Wise. This cast is very enjoyable to watch and makes Reaper feel like one of the better shows out there.

The story of Reaper: Season One has our main character Sam being under the contract that his parent's made with The Devil before he was even born. This contract has Sam in the position of working for The Devil as a bounty hunter of bad souls that have escaped from Hell. While the story is quite silly, it makes for an excellent comedy and gets the viewer away from the all-to-common comedies on television that revolve around someone who lives in a normal city or a dysfunctional middle-class family living in the suburbs. While all may not enjoy it, this story was great fun for me and I think that anyone going into it realizing that it isn't just another television comedy should enjoy it.

The directing, script, story, acting, and just everything about Reaper: Season 1 makes it a great show that is worth a watch. I have to say that this show brings the full package to the table and was quite enjoyable to review.

The Short Version: Reaper: Season 1 is a comedy television show out on dvd that is great all around and was one of the more fun reviews I have done because I truly enjoyed every minute of watching it.

Moscow Zero

Moscow Zero, an action/suspense title, came to dvd on November 4, 2008. A lower budget film, this title does a commendable job with a good cast, interesting setting, and a story that hasn't been seen a dozen times before.

Moscow Zero has a cast that did a fairly good job. I personally felt that Oksana Akinshina, who plays the girl in this movie, stood above the rest with her youth not getting in the way of her understanding her part and delivering some convincing acting. Val Kilmer was in this film and I had hoped that he would do a little better than he did, but I would vote his performance as satisfatory for his role and the constraints that the dialogue put on him.

The story of Moscow Zero was interesting and it probably helps that I have a bias towards liking movies and television that deal with spiritual and religious topics and ideas. Sadly, the script itself seemed to lack and the film as a whole was somewhat of a bore, at fault of the scripts dialogue.

This is classified as an action/suspense film but I felt that both were fairly lacking. If you go out and get it expecting it to be an action packed movie with explosions and intense gunfights, or are looking for something to keep you on edge and guessing what will happen next, you will probably be disappointed or fall asleep. If you are looking for a film with a good story idea, some religious subject matter, and actors that do a decent job at trying to make the best of the dialogue they are given, then Moscow Zero is a dvd that you might want to look at.

The Short Version: Moscow Zero will put you to sleep if you are looking for a traditional Hollywood dose of action and suspense but should keep you interested if you like actors working well with what they are given and story that is good if you can get past the script.

House Arrest

House Arrest, a comedy, came to dvd on November 4, 2008. I want to start this review of House Arrest by saying that I am likely not the target audience for this film and I probably missed some things, but I do feel I have an overall close to complete understanding of this film and what its intentions are.

House Arrest has a has a fairly no name cast of that do what I would expect. They perform their roles within the overall expectancy for a film like this. There were no shining stars that I saw, just paid actors earning their money. Believe it or not, the vanilla acting from this cast was not the worst part of the movie. The script sounds like it was written by a couple guys with no experience writing, or even watching movies outside of How High and White Chicks.

The story of House Arrest is a stretch even for a comedy. It is a stretch that I would find offensive and an insult to my intelligence if I was in the position of the target audience for this film. I am going to skip the story as it is stupid and as I do not want to waste any more of my time reviewing House Arrest than I already did while watching the DVD.

The Short Version: House Arrest feels like a script written by wannabe Wayans Brothers or a Dave Chappelle without talent, with a story that I hope the target audience finds offensive, and a no name cast with an expected level of acting that is the only thing close to an upside.
