Movie Review

Grade: C- A movie that isn't nearly as bad as it looked but is still worth avoiding if possible, "The Man" stars the unlikely duo of Samuel L. Jackson and Eugene Levy in this buddy cop venture that offers nothing new. Read the full movie review

'MAN IS ON FIRE', by Jeffery Ridge

November 13, 2005

This film was the sh*t, one hell of a film. Eugene Levy and Samuel L. Jackson were a great chemistry. Not to mention this was Eugene's best film since
'American Pie'. Samuel L. Jackson did a stunning performance as a cop, the same to Levy as a dental supplies man. Hell, if I wasn't writing this review right now, I'd be buying tickets to go see it again!
That is how f**king good this film was!
