37. FRO talks 1992 (2024)

FRO Thizzle Reviews ·

2024/11/08

While the heist sub-plot is familiar, I enjoyed 1992. We have good performances all across the board, and a great final appearance by the late Ray Liotta. Starring: Tyrese Gibson, Scott Eastwood, Dylan Arnold, and Ray Liotta Directed by: Ariel Vromen Rated R for violence and pervasive language

36. FRO talks NATIONAL SECURITY (2003)

FRO Thizzle Reviews ·

2024/11/08

Martin Lawrence and Steve Zahn have great chemistry, the action sequences are fun, and I get belly laughs nearly throughout the film.Starring: Martin Lawrence, Steve Zahn, and Bill Duke Directed by: Dennis Dugan Rated PG-13 for violence, language and some sensuality

35. FRO talks NOTHING TO LOSE (1997)

FRO Thizzle Reviews ·

2024/11/08

I've always loved this road-trip buddy comedy. Tim Robbins and Martin Lawrence have a surprisingly great chemistry, we have a solid supporting cast, and the shenanigans that ensue give me big laughs.Starring: Tim Robbins, Martin Lawrence, John C. McGinley, & Giancarlo Esposito Directed by: Steve Oedekerk Rated R for pervasive strong language and a sex scene

34. FRO talks the horrible MORTAL KOMBAT:...

FRO Thizzle Reviews ·

2024/11/08

strong language advisedThis movie is bottom of the barrel material. The acting is extremely wooden, the fight choreography is laughable, and the special effects are some of the worst I've ever seen. Starring: Robin Shou, James Remar, Sandra Hess, and Brian Thompson Directed by: John R. Leonetti Rated PG-13 for non-stop martial arts violence and for being a terrible movie

33. FRO talks LEAVE THE WORLD BEHIND (2023)

FRO Thizzle Reviews ·

2024/11/08

This one wasn't my cup of tea, guys. Despite the strong cast, I found the acting and overall direction to be clunky and awkward. The camerawork was annoying to me. And I don't think the 2 hour and 20 min. runtime was worth it. Starring: Julia Roberts, Mahershala Ali, Ethan Hawke, and Kevin Bacon Directed by: Sam Esmail Rated R for language, some sexual content, drug use and brief bloody images

6:24

32. FRO talks HOME ALONE (1990)

FRO Thizzle Reviews ·

2024/11/08

Macaulay Culkin does a wonderful job playing Kevin, Pesci and Stern are awesome as the Wet Bandits, and the musical score is memorable. Starring: Macauley Culkin, Joe Pesci, David Stern, Catherine O'Hara, and John Heard Directed by: Chris Columbus Rated PG for language and slapstick violence

en

30. FRO talks WHITE ZOMBIE (1932)

FRO Thizzle Reviews ·

2024/11/08

I consider this one to be educational. It's the first film with the term "zombie" in the title, and also the first time we've ever seen "zombies." Flesh-eaters were introduced by Romero in 1968, but voodoo zombies began with White Zombie in '32. Despite my zombie bias, I really enjoy this flick. Bela Lugosi is fantastic here.

29. FRO talks PLANES, TRAINS, AND AUTOMOBILES (1987)

FRO Thizzle Reviews ·

2024/11/08

Steve Martin and the late great John Candy have a dynamite chemistry here. Tons of goofball laughs, and even some heart-felt moments that made me tear up. I highly recommend!Starring: Steve Martin and John Candy Directed by: John Hughes

28. FRO talks DEATH SENTENCE (2007)

FRO Thizzle Reviews ·

2024/11/08

I've always loved this flick! Kevin Bacon puts in a great performance, John Goodman steals the show, and the carnage is a brutal delight when it pops up. One of my favorite revenge films. Starring: Kevin Bacon, Garrett Hedlund, Kelly Preston, and John Goodman Directed by: James Wan Rated R for strong bloody brutal violence and pervasive language

27. FRO talks the awful JEEPERS CREEPERS: REBORN (2022)

FRO Thizzle Reviews ·

2024/11/08

strong language advisedI can't believe that Reborn is worse than 3. The acting is cardboard, the effects (both practical and CGI) are horrendous, and there's nothing scary about this new Creeper.Everything in this f***ing movie is laughable.Rated R for violence, gore and language, and for being a terrible movie

en

2:14

26. FRO talks the horrible JEEPERS CREEPERS 3 (2017)

FRO Thizzle Reviews ·

2024/11/08

strong language advisedAbsolutely horrendous. There is not one solitary good thing about Jeepers Creepers 3. Horrible acting, extremely forgettable kills, and a sluggish Creeper that's not-so creepy.

7:42

25. FRO talks NIGHT OF THE LIVING DEAD (1968)

FRO Thizzle Reviews ·

2024/11/08

The film that innovated flesh-eating zombies. From the mind of my favorite filmmaker of all-time, George A. Romero. Starring: Duane Jones Directed by: George A. Romero

en

24. FRO talks the zombie game LAND OF THE DEAD: ROAD...

FRO Thizzle Reviews ·

2024/11/08

I'm in the minority, but I've always enjoyed this game. Sure, the mechanics are clunky, and the animation isn't great, but I still have an absolute blast playing it.

en

7:35

23. FRO talks UNDERCOVER BROTHER (2002)

FRO Thizzle Reviews ·

2024/11/08

Eddie Griffin is great as the title character, we have a fun supporting cast including a scene-stealing Dave Chappelle, and some moments that definitely push the PG-13 rating. I admit that I do have a nostalgic bias with my overall rating, but I still love Undercover Brother. Starring: Eddie Griffin, Chris Kattan, Dave Chappelle, Chi McBride, and Billy Dee Williams Directed by: Malcolm D. Lee Rated PG-13 for language, sexual humor, drug content and campy violence

en

3:29

22. FRO talks his FAVORITE game DEF JAM: FIGHT FOR NY...

FRO Thizzle Reviews ·

2024/11/08

As an emcee, it doesn't get better than fighting as some of the greatest emcees that ever lived. The mechanics are smooth, the finishing moves are kick-ass, and the story-line is a ton of fun!

21. FRO talks ERNEST GOES TO JAIL (1990)

FRO Thizzle Reviews ·

2024/11/08

Right off the bat, my review for this movie is gonna be ROOTED in nostalgic bias, but I still wholeheartedly love Goes to Jail. Jim Varney gives an underrated performance as both the bumbling hero we love, AND the villainous Nash.

en

6:04

14. FRO talks MATILDA (1996)

FRO Thizzle Reviews ·

2024/11/08

I never get tired of this one. Mara Wilson is awesome as the title character, Danny DeVito does a great job with both directing and acting, and Pam Ferris is a delight as the villain, Trunchbull. Starring: Mara Wilson, Danny DeVito, and Pam Ferris Directed by: Danny DeVito Rated PG for elements of exaggeRated meanness and ridicule, and for some mild language

en

20. FRO talks ERNEST SCARED STUPID (1991)

FRO Thizzle Reviews ·

2024/11/08

*strong language advised*My favorite childhood film!Ernest Scared Stupid is a 1991 comedy horror film directed by John Cherry and starring Jim Varney. It is the fifth film to feature the character Ernest P. Worrell. In the film, Ernest unwittingly unleashes an evil troll upon a small town on Halloween night and helps the local children fight back.

9. FRO talks the zombie game DEAD RISING (2006)

FRO Thizzle Reviews ·

2024/11/08

Frank West is a solid protagonist, the zombies and overall design for them are creepy and unnerving, we have some cool supporting characters like Brad and Carlito, and the boss matches - although tough - are fun to play through. One of my favorite games ever, but I also have a nostalgic bias with it.
