Voices of Iraq (2004)

A unique idea for a documentary, brilliantly executed

[9/10 · 4 November 2004]

This film captures a side of the War in Iraq that most people have never seen before. The way the Iraqis are able to speak freely into the cameras and act as the directors of the film, really exposes a lot of truths about the war. The film allows you to see so much more than what the News Channels deem noteworthy. Whats most important about the movie is that it gives the people of Iraq a voice.

Voices of Iraq allows you to experience a country and it's people who have finally been awarded their freedom, and the struggle they must endure to keep it. The footage looks amazing, and the interviews are extremely powerful. Yet there is plenty of humor and sadness throughout the film as well.

I would recommend Voices of Iraq as a must see for everyone. It's a revolutionary film making process, that produced amazing results.

Almost Heroes (1998)

A hilarious final work!

[10/10 · 23 June 2000]

The rest of the people on here who seem to think this is the worst movie ever must have their heads up their ass. Chris Farley did a great job in his last film and is completely hilarious throughout the movie. If you are a big fan of his work, I don't see how you can not love this movie. Like most movies with this type of humor, they get funnier every time you watch them, and this is no exception. Don't watch this movie planning to see an epic tale, if that's how they billed it, they weren't being serious. Matthew Perry's character and Guy Fontenot are great, and the chick in this movie is ridiculously hot. While watching this movie just think about how stupid it is, that is the point, and you are guaranteed to laugh.
