This Is Sanlitun
This Is Sanlitun
British sad sack Gary is a failed entrepreneur who has just arrived in Beijing's stylish Sanlitun district, allegedly to start a business. There are other reasons why he has uprooted himself — he's followed his ex-wife and young son, for one — but he soon finds out that China isn't the easiest place to succeed. Blissfully untouched by self-awareness, and only fitfully in tune with reality, Gary sallies forth to make money, armed with faith in himself and little to no knowledge of Chinese culture. He soon hooks up with Frank, a trust-fund kid from Australia who offers to mentor Gary in Eastern ways, although Frank's pedagogical method is restricted to yelling at Gary for being a Westerner and not being as "Chinese" as him.

I find that, more than any other movie genre, comedy is a matter of personal taste. One person can come whole-heartedly recommend a film to you as being eyeball-busting funny, only for you to sit there stoney-faced throughout.This film perfectly illustrates that point. The user ratings and comments for this film have been pretty negative, but I've rarely laughed so much at a comedy. Yes, it's stupid and full of slapstick, but it has some great lines and the actors look like they're having fun.And unlike other similar films, it's not just a star vehicle for a money-mad, unfunny rapper. If you're planning a night in with a few drinks or *whatever* and you "like this sort of thing", this is a good bet.

Rushon has a date with Nikki – who he has been seeing for 7 weeks without `getting up in there'. Nikki has asked that Roshon brings a friend for her friend Lysterine so Roshon brings along his hood rat friend Bunz. Despite a terrible date and constant bickering between Bunz and Lysterine the four hit it off and separate to their rooms to, well, get it on. However Nikki's insistence on safe sex sends the two men out on a quest for contraceptives that lead them into several adventures.I approached this with all the caution one would give to a rattlesnake in your bathroom. I knew it was going to one of those basic ethnic comedies where the main laughs will come from the characters acting in the stereotypical way black characters do in comedies and by saying `your ass' at the end of every sentence. Sadly I was bang on the money.To call the story a `plot' is doing it a great disservice – this is no more than a couple of sketches thrown together with one thread holding it as one film. We have 1: the date, 2: the shops and 3: the hospital. And that's it! This doesn't matter as long as it's funny – but the humour here is aimed at an undemanding black audience. It's also crude, racist, lazy and relies on the characters arguing in loud fast voices and saying `motherf*cker' and `ass' every few minutes.Sadly this is still funny if you're in the mood! As much as I wanted to hate it I still enjoyed it. Many of the sketches are amusing and some of the dialogue is good. However too much of it is lazy ethnic stuff. Some scenes smack badly of racism – like Bunz insulting Indian shopkeepers by telling them to go back to Pakistan or calling a diner at a Chinese restaurant `Bruce Lee'. Can you imagine a white character in a `white' film getting away with that?However the bad taste is usually removed by the next good line so it's not too bad. Foxx is not a great actor – I find him to be a poor man's Martin Lawrence or Eddie Murphy and he really just overplays his `hood rat' character to the hilt. Davidson is his straight-man and is not memorable as a result. Jones is cute and looks great in that white lingerie and Fox is as sexy as ever despite a terrible hairdo. However both the women are both black woman stereotypes and do the whole hand-waving, head-wiggling thing too much. The most surprising bit of casting was Art Malik as one of the shop keepers – he'd already done City of Joy and True Lies, so why did he decide that a role in this would be the way to go?Overall this is very basic and really pretty poor. The plot could be written on the back of an matchbox, the jokes are crude at best and racist at worst and it's very hit and miss – even if you're in the mood. Sadly I still enjoyed it and found it funny. If you like this type of thing then this will please you no ends.

I am almost embarassed to say I saw "Booty Call", but it was on Comedy Central last night, and I had some time to kill...Basic premise - a guy has been going with a girl for 7 weeks and still has not gotten any, because he respects her and thinks she might be "the one". His girl also is very horny and asks her good friend (Lysterine) to join them on a double-date for safety, and she is fixed up on a blind date with Bunz. Bunz and Lysterine create immediate friction, but eventually, with the help of a dog licking toes under the table, they get set for some old-fashioned, no-commitment "booty."However, both girls (two different adjacent apartments) want to practice safe sex, so the boys are sent out for "protection" at 2AM. They return with some, but the girls point out that "lambskins" don't protect against HIV, so they are sent out again, for "latex" condoms. Then they are later sent out for "saran wrap".One of the boys is shot by an attempted hold-up of the convenience store, and there is an interesting hospital scene, no treatment for no insurance card, so one of them poses as a doctor to get him in. And, while he is at it, delivers a baby.The script makes fun of lots of things, including Indians in turbans working at the store. It is not likely that much of the humor here will appeal to female viewers. I rate it "6" for the good acting and quite a few funny exchanges. See it if you can for free. After all, how do we recognize marginal movies unless we see some occasionally??

This is a comedy about two friends trying to get some. One is, but the other is not getting too lucky. He has to earn it. I think this movie is a movie that will make you laugh a lot. It is like The Wood, and more of a How to be a Player in a way. A very funny romantic comedy. I think it is highly recommended for those who like this kind of comedy.
