Jungle 2 Jungle


Disney. Genius! They have some of the best, most captivating, and often times humorous movies there are and despite the whole Hannah Montana/Miley Cirus mess, I still love them.


So, you have Bamboo (AHAHAHAHAHA) played by Tim Allen, who wants a divorce from ex-wife that he hasn't seen in 13 years. You know how life goes? They just didn't have the time to finalize everything and sign on the dotted line. This clearly comes to bite him in the ass when the new love of his life Charlie (Davidovich) and him want to seal the deal and get married. Let's not forget that Bamboo and Charlie are pretty well-off and not tied down by any children. Did I mention that the ex-wife lived in the Amazon? Or that Charlie should have been played by Elaine Hendrix, because she plays the best BITCH I have ever seen!?
Anyway, Bamboo finds out he has a 13 year old son, Mimi-Siku! OUCH! And that in order for this son to officially "become a man" he has to bring the chief back fire from the statue of liberty. What does this mean? This means that Mimi-Siku will be going back to NEW YORK CITY with Bamboo for a week. Can you can culture shock!
The week turns out to be hell, Bamboo lost his money, his sanity, and almost his fingers. However, he learned that Charlie was a Bitch and wanted to make things right with ex-wife and Mimi-Siku. Awweee... Exactly, this humorous movie will have you cracking up and the ridiculous notions all the way to the end.

G.I. Jane

I didn't get to watch this movie when it first came out. I'm certain it was at least 2 years later before I saw it. I saw it again recently and I was reminded of WHY I wanted to join the Navy at one point in my life.

I am one of those individuals, like Jordan (Moore), who HATES to be told that I cannot do something, and DO NOT even think about telling me I cannot do it for reasons that I cannot control. Like age, gender, sexual preference, etc...

Demi Moore tells the military to kiss her ass and with the help of a Senator gets to join the Navy SEALS, a career that even today females cannot do.

This movie shows the brutality towards women soldiers and the discrimination we face. Jordan had to go through many, many lengths in order to be accepted by her fellow comrades. She shaved her hair off, and told them to, "SUCK MY DICK." Cheers all around for that last one.

Eventually, politics and money took an even bigger toll and the Senator stopped back up Jordan, which forced her to leave the SEALS. It was a long and rigorous fight.

Expert Says: 5 Stars, male of female you will enjoy this movie.
