Nacho Libre stinks!

    Black's ship sailed with School of Rock as far as I'm concerned. Can't stand him, even though I think he's one of the few people in hollywood doing anything original. Not necessarily good, but original. King Kong notwithstanding.

    And Modaho, if your lovely daughter gets her looks from her mom, then I'd follow her no matter where she wanted to go. Ballet? I'm there. Wouldn't watch it; I'd stare at her the whole time, but I'd go. So you go and enjoy being with her, and the movie likely won't matter, right? Plus, you know, if you need a tracheotomy, I imagine she'd be handy to have around.

    I haven't seen it, so I'm not going to say 'Nacho Libre' is good.
    Our critic called it good but not great.
    However, Ebert may have passed any level credibility.
    By giving three stars each to 'Garfield: A Tale of Two Kitties' and 'The Fast and the Furious: Tokyo Drift.'
    I haven't seen either, but I can't envision anyway that either is tolerable.
    Also, he gave 3 1/2 stars to 'The Lake House.'

    He panned 'Nacho Libre' and didn't like 'Jesus is Magic,' which I loved.

    He also gave 'Napoleon Dynamite' only 1 1/2 stars.

    At Best Buy we had a 2-3 minute Nacho Libre trailer on the TVs a few weeks ago and some parts seemed pretty damn funny. My favorite was when he is flexing his ass cheeks in the tight pants and he says something like, "These are my nice pants." And the nun is like, "They look expensive." Nacho responds, "Thank you."

    Wow, I just spit Coke through the screen and through the wall.


    This doesn't sound promising. The trailer I saw was not either.

    I'm going substitute 'saw' for ;say' in your question and then answer.
    I saw 'Napoleon Dynamite' when it came out. Once. That's the only time I've seen it.
    And it was hysterical.
    That doesn't guarantee that I'll like 'Nacho Libre.' In fact, I find it hard the believe it could be as good as 'Napoleon Dynamite.'
    But if Ebert's sunk to recommending 'The Fast and the Furious: Tokyo Drift' and 'Gardfield: A Tale of Two Kitties,' I don't think I'll be considering him relevant anymore.

    The only summer movie I want to see less than those two is Superman Returns.
