Summary: One Rocket Charlie!!!
Review: Skyscraper is a movie starring Anna Nicole Smith, and it co-stars her breasts. I must say that Ms. Smith should be jealous of her co-stars, as they get all of the good scenes, while sadly she must stand behind them and deliver her lines in a kind of stuper. Also the movie has a great villain, in the part of Zorkov, I think, who pummels every line he delivers like a blow to the skull..."CIAO BELLO!!!" When Carrie the helicopter pilot is in the helicopter, look close as you can see the REAL pilots shoulder in some scenes when she is suppose to be alone. Anyway, it's been a while since I have seen this movie, but I do remember the strong parts, that is: lots or running, lots of screaming, tons of shooting, and of course, Anna Nicole Smiths huge naked breasts.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: not quite as good as 'to the limit'
Review: a friend of mine managed to pick this up for A$14.95 at a used-video store - BARGAIN!

well, not really... but if you're after an HILARIOUS movie, seek this one out, even if just to rent. not quite topping anna's other effort 'to the limit', 'skyscraper' follows

the story of "Carrie" a helicopter-taxi-pilot who works for "Heliscort", flying people all over L.A. and dropping them on the top of the same building she took off from (as this movie would have you believe, from the shots used).

personally, if i paid for a taxi ride only to be dropped off back where i started, i'd be pretty narked but i guess anna's penchant for hopping into a shower for a 'steamy' (used literally) naked scene keeps her out of trouble.

basically, carrie drops off a shady character on top of an 86-floor building (which is actually only 24 floors high, as shown by the much-used elevator-indicator-light' shots), and gets caught up in a terrorist attack on a building which is rigged with laser sensors and riot-proof windows (which aren't as resistant to carrie's boots). i can't actually remember how she 'foils' the terrorists attempts, I can only remember multiple ultra-violent gunfights and her breasts flashing up every few minutes. (anna's breasts are too big :( however, there is a sub-plot involving carrie's wishes to have a baby, involving a heartfelt scene at the start of the film between her and her lover 'gordy', which will have you staring in disbelief at the screen. carrie manages to adopt her real-life child in the film, whose mother is shot by terrorists (who mistook the mother's blonde hair for Carrie's and shot her in the back)

facts : yes, you can see the earpiece worn by anna during shooting, however, unlike some other reviewers i couldn't find any scenes where she was physically propped up due to her drugged-out state (unfortunately). but, as mentioned by other reviewers of this film, she does seem to gain weight during the film, somewhat disguised by her enormous flying-overalls. and YES! cue-card reading is evident.

keep an eye out for one of Fairfax's 'henchmen' who looks scarily like a male version of the older one from the "Cybill" tv show! scary stuff... 4 stars

100% TACK

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Horrible
Review: After the opening credits end, this film offers zero credibility. I give it four stars because it is truly one of the very few films that is so awful, you can't refrain from laughing (hysterically). That, in my book, is entertainment.

Anna Nicole Smith and whoever plays her boyfriend are easily the two worst actors you will ever see grace film. Smith can't even stand in a shot, saying nothing, and be convincing. When she radios into dispatch from her helicopter, you'll laugh for hours on end.

In perhaps one of the greatest special effects shots of all time, the side of a downtown Los Angeles building is blown up. The building's model is made out of newsprint and cardboard, and two minutes after the explosion, there isn't any broken glass, debrit or any semblance that anything had happened.

The spinning backhanded slaps Anna displays defeating the villain at the conclusion of this film are worth the hour and a half of your life you realize you wasted only three minutes into the film.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: This is one of the best movies ever!
Review: Anna Nicole Smith gives an exquisite performance as the Heli-taxi pilot Carrie. Her anger and frustaration with husband Gordy about having a baby is delicously portrayed. The supporting cast of characters rounds out this all-together classic film. This movie will leave you on the edge of your seat as Carrie makes her way through danger filled floors of this erotic thriller! A must see!!

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: Your basic B-movie
Review: Bad acting on all accounts. Although I wouldn't mind taking her partner's place in the intimate scenes!

Rating: 2 stars
Summary: Minor League Mayhem
Review: I am in agreement with several of the other reviewers of this film. It was mostly awful. It didn't even have the saving grace of unintentional humor as in "To The Limit." A big disappointment was this mindblowingly erotic "shower scene" I've heard so much about... was that it? I've seen scenes between Miss Piggy and Kermit that were more exciting than that!

In an offside, I find it interesting that they've allowed Smith to keep her thick southren (Texan?) accent. Usually Hollywood drills accents out of leading actors/actresses and make them speak "normal" English, leaving accents for various supporting roles. I wonder if this has had an effect on people's opinion of her acting. It may be that people are struggling with that very regional accent of hers.

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: A Slapstick Pasty Movie!
Review: I have yet to figure out the plot. Anna Nicole Smith did fine as long as she didn't talk. The terrorists were scary. That may have saved the movie. Good action scenes with entertaining gunfight scenes. I never did figure out what the terrorists were trying to obtain. Was it nuclear in nature? The terrorists never did issue demands. Perhaps they told Anna Nicole Smith and she forgot. Her nude scenes were entertaining because she had no lines. Perhaps she shpuld stick to nudie videos.

Summary: Um......Yeah. this movie sucked.
Review: I thik this movie could have been better. But I really didn't feel that my $2 was worth it. I expected alot more from Anna Nicole Smith. but that is ok. I think it would have been better if Anna actually knew how to act.
