Beanbioca As Good As It Gets
Gutsycurene Fanciful, disturbing, and wildly original, it announces the arrival of a fresh, bold voice in American cinema.
Zlatica One of the worst ways to make a cult movie is to set out to make a cult movie.
Caryl It is a whirlwind of delight --- attractive actors, stunning couture, spectacular sets and outrageous parties. It's a feast for the eyes. But what really makes this dramedy work is the acting.
amandakusters So it's come to this? I was expecting something so much better than this sloppily put together cluster of moments. I was a big fan for a long time and looked forward to watching it, I wanted a bit something more. I appreciated the honesty of their past and how they over came their struggles, but it seems like someone is still pulling the strings for them. I want to see a bit more of all that goes into making the records and their relationships as well. I wanted to see how their relationships have grown over the years. They show how they've grown individually, but not how they did together. I recommend fans give it a watch, since most of the fans are going to regardless of what we say here, but I was sorely disappointed. Rolled my eyes several times.This is a MEH.
goober-96558 Despite what some of the reviews say this waste of money movie is only something that only mindless loyal BSB fans will like. And bsb just like any other boy vocal group were only successful because their looks appeal to young girls of the late 90s and early 2000s. So to the reviewer that claimed the the members of bsb became successful base on the so called talent alone. Just isn't a fact. Bsb would have never made it if they were all ugly or geeky or dorky or nerdy looking guys. And is the reason Lou Pearlmen when holding auditions for the vocal group he made which make bsb just as manufacture as 1D. Pick each and every member of bsb base on their looks knowing from groups like NKOTB they would have been big. But it amazing how in 20 years they never got caught lip syncing I guess their just to good at lip syncing to get caught. And fake acapellas by using just the vocal track to fool their fans into thinking they can actually sing. Which they can't without the help of pitch correction.
Sgt Buzzard I was a fan and I bought this video and well what a great disappointment. While a whole bunch of girls were out buying shirts, CDs, and concert tickets, these guys were out drinking and doing drugs with all that money and at least one of them got himself into a cocaine coma. They are trying to re-image themselves from boy band to grown up band while at the same time trying to reach the same level of stardom they once enjoyed. When they all get frustrated with themselves they blame Brian for his difficulty with some vocals. You see Nick get angry and use nasty language towards the team. In reality this video actually makes some of the band members less likable and like a bunch of immature kids. Brian comes across like a person who really could benefit from joining another band, Nick comes across like an immature punk, Kevin comes across like a perverted dad who knows a few choice phrases in German, Howie comes across just fine and level headed he should go on his own also, and AJ has the same sense of humor as my pizza delivery guy. They all got screwed by Lou but without him they may have not faired as well, besides all of them are millionaires now, how many people have you met have gotten screwed and end up as millionaires as well. Buy this if you want to hear the truth straight from the horses mouth, do not buy this if you don't want to ruin the Backstreet Magic. Brian I sincerely hope everything works out for you.
lune78 As a longtime fan, this documentary was a must-see for me. And needless to say, I was not disappointed. Show 'Em What You're Made Of offers a very honest look at the roller-coaster life of a boy band whose longevity and success defied all expectations. No truth is sugar-coated in this film as the boys-turned-men give us a glimpse into their childhoods, their rise to superstardom and, ultimately, their fall and return into the spotlight. From AJ's drug and alcohol abuse to Brian's struggle with his singing voice and the band's conflicts with their first manager Lou Pearlman, the BSB hold nothing back as they recount their 20 year-long journey as one of the most successful recording groups of all time.Tears are shed, hurtful words are exchanged during arguments, but ultimately, the bond between all the guys is stronger than ever. They're a group, but above all, they're brothers. And that's what makes the Backstreet Boys so special.
