Cheech and Chong's Nice Dreams (1981) Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)Cheech and Chong look like they had a lot of fun filming "Nice Dreams" with their comedic friends. I've seen it at least ten times and I still find something I missed during previous viewings. I always laugh when I see the redheaded Chicken Man, or Cheech scooting around a padded cell in a straight jacket asking for someone to relieve an itch, and especially Michael Winslow's Jimi Hendrix routine. Don't expect a real plot and you won't be disappointed.

The 1981 stoner comedy "Cheech and Chong's Nice Dreams" is the third of Tommy Chong and Cheech Marin's movies together, a meanderingly silly but agreeable farce about two clods selling marijuana treats from the back of an ice cream truck. Oblivious to an investigation by a couple of idiot cops whose boss (Stacy Keach) is constantly high from smoking evidence, the boys stumble through one crazy vignette after another. A few of these scenes feel like satiric spins on bad experiences Cheech and Chong might have had in the recording business, such as an evening spent with an obnoxious band manager who mistakes Tommy for Jerry Garcia and steals the Chinese food right off his restaurant table. Other craziness includes a night of sexual bliss interrupted by the arrival of a party girl's "Mexican-hating" biker-boyfriend, and incarceration in a padded room, where Timothy Leary supplies psychedelics to the clueless anti-heroes. Paul Reubens, Sandra Bernhard, and Linnea Quigley turn up in supporting roles. "--Tom Keogh"

The Encounter (2010) Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)This movie does not beat around the bush: in very short order, the viewer is introduced to a present-day Jesus. He is The Way, The Truth, and The LIfe----and this movie clearly depicts Him as such in a non-threatening and modern venue. Bruce Marchiano is perfect in the role as Christ (as he was in "Matthew") because he clearly understands the reality of redemption through faith in Jesus. His unwavering belief and discipleship shine through in this most recent vehicle. This is a movie for everyone, including children. Never too early to fall in love with Jesus!!------Nancy
