Movie Reviews by Sen. Phil Gramm (R-Texas)

Before Night Falls
Starring Javier Bardem and Johnny Depp
Personally I couldn't make heads nor tails of this movie. Suffice to say it's set in Cuba and Johnny Depp plays a transvesterite. In my humble opinion it's this kind of nonsense which is tearing apart the very fabric of American society. Cubans! Transvesterites! Why, this is nothing more than a subterfugerous plot to emboggle the minds of America's children.
No Flags out of Five

Head Over Heels
Starring Freddie Prinze Jr. and Monica Potter
This was a nice little story about a fella and a girl who fall in love. Quite wholesome. I thought there could have been a bit less flesh overall, but the movie was only 87 minutes long so I had time to nip into Hamburger Hamlet on my way home.
Three Flags out of Five

Place Vendome
Starring Catherine Deneuve and Jean-Pierre Bacri
Halfway into this movie a thought suddenly occurred to me: we kicked the frogs out of Texas and THIS is their revenge! Forcing me, Phil Gramm, to sit through two hours of "bonjor" this and "ooh la la" that! I forgot to take my reading glasses to the theater, so you can imagine my agony as the blurred sub-titles raced by. In fact, the only redeeming feature of this movie was the classy performance of Catherine Deneuve as... well, I'm not sure what she was supposed to be, but the little lady sure did look fine.
One Flag out of Five

Left Behind
Starring Kirk Cameron and Brad Johnson
Now THIS is more like it. A coherent plot, inspiring dialogue, and stunning performances all help to make "Left Behind" my Movie Of The Week. It's nice to see folks making a serious movie about serious issues - after all, what WILL we do when the rapture comes? I think this movie goes a long way toward answering that question. Take your children to see "Left Behind" - it'll provide them with an insight into the true power of God's mysterious ways, and they'll pick up some useful firearm tips along the way. All in all this movie screams "Oscar"!
Five Flags out of Five

New On Video

Dinosaur
An amusing computer-generated tale about what dinosaurs might have been like if they had really existed.

Goya On Broadway
Yet another tribute to gay hispanics. When will Hollywood stop feeding this filth to our children?

What Lies Beneath
Michelle Pfeiffer and Harrison Ford light up the screen in this spooky story, although I think I preferred him when he was Indiana Jones.
