Rating: Summary: "I'm an elephant rider. Huh...you like that?" Review: I am dying for this movie to come on DVD. It is my all time favorite movie!! I practically know it word-for-word. This movie is by far the best work of The Kids. "This is a drug - for the world - to give worms to ex-girlfriends... You just dont get it here!"
Rating: Summary: One of the funniest films ever! Review: In my top five comedies this film leaves you on the floor. Great one liners and appearences from some of the funniest kids in the hall characters this film is worth seeing a hundred times over. And I will buy the DVD the second I can!
Rating: Summary: "Dogs know it" --- great movie Review: Only the Kids in the Hall could get away with making a dark comedy/satire about our Prozac nation and how to obtain happiness "chemically". The Kids skillfully become their many alter-egos, especially Mark McKinney as a Lorne Michaels rip-off as Don Roritor, the corporate giant that takes advantage of comatose Gleemonex patients. The flashback sequences are great.
Rating: Summary: A brilliant, biting satire Review: Never has The Kids in the Hall's brilliant, satirical, biting humor been more brilliant, satirical, biting...and hilarious than in this gem of a film that shows off TKITH's talent in mocking the conventions and people of modern society. All of the guys are hilarious as ever, particularly Scott Thompson, whose closeted gay husband is a scream! Love the musical number! Bruce McCullough's "Happiness Pie" song is also a riot. I loved the many in-jokes for TKITH fans, including "Cancer Boy" and even "Queen Elizabeth." I was laughing so hard at some parts of this movie, I had difficulty breathing! It was a laugh riot with a message, not an easy thing to do. It really takes a good, hard look at today's society and its dependence on the latest drug to make us feel better. This is even more meaningful today than when this film was first released. Just turn on the tv and at least once every five minutes, you'll see a glowing, lovely commercial for a drug that you need to survive...with only a few minor side effects. Well, this drug has a "minor" side effect as well! Watch it to find out, and don't forget to focus on your happiest memory!
Rating: Summary: Wowzers! Review: I love every song on this CD! There is something for everyone. All this music makes you just want to get up and dance. I love how they have inserted about five movie clips between some of the songs. Also, it's great the theme from the tv show is on there. This is truly one of the only soundtracks where all of the songs in the movie are on the CD, even if only five seconds of the song is featured in the movie. :)
Rating: Summary: Kids In The Hall are the best. Review: If you are a fan of KITH, you MUST see Brain Candy, and if you have, ge tthe soundtrack! happyness Pie is the best song! also, download a bunch of their other songs and sketches (like daddy drank, terriers, running faggot, what is the fat man doing across the road...) off Mactser or Napster.
Rating: Summary: The Kids at their best! Review: What can I say! Brain Candy combines characters from the t.v. series to give die-hard fans a little added inside humour, and self satisfaction for being able to identify Raj & Chrisitine, the bigoted cabbie etc...and the plot is really great too. I deals with a serious topic, and in a satirical way makes a statement that people need their darker sides. Perhaps because of the personal tragedies being suffered by the Kids during filming, the irony comes through that much stronger. If you likethe t.v. series you'll LOVE the movie!
Rating: Summary: what more could you expect! Review: Great movie! I was kinda reluctant to watch it at first cause i read all these bad reviews on it, but I LOVED it! All you people that wrote all those bad things about it, honestly, what more could you expect? If you love the show then you will love this movie! The movie is much like the show; some parts you laugh out loud, some you chuckle, and some parts are so bizzare you just stare in horror...and then laugh. In short, it is worth watching! Bravo to the kids!
Rating: Summary: Most Original Outrageous Comedy Ever Review: To fully enjoy this comedy you first have to understand this it, and I would suggest watching the television show on Comedy Central. The show ran from 1989-1994, and it is the funniest show ever I think. I saw the movie before I ever saw the show, I knew nothing about them, and I loved the movie. That's just because that's how my sense of humor it is. This movie has all the Kids in the Hall (Bruce McCulloch, Kevin McDonald, Dave Foley, Mark McKinney, and Scott Thompson) playing hilarious outrageous, between them all, I think they play at least 30 or 40 characters. This is about a happy drug, that makes the depressed happy. Many nice sub plots, one about a married gay man (Thompson) who comes out of the closet, another about a heavy metal singer named Grivo (McCulloch) and many more. You can't take this movie seriously, I mean, it's the Kids in the Hall, come on! Also stars Brendan Fraser and looks closely for Janeane Garofalo in a cameo appearance. This movie is great!
Rating: Summary: A must own Review: Everyone who is a fan of KITH or not should have a copy of this. This is a perfect combination of music, especially Bruce's band from the movie. Somedays it's dark is a great song, and happiness pie just makes me laugh everytime I hear it. Go out and buy this disc right away.
