Hercules Returns
One of the best comedy movies I have ever seen. A low budget effort from Australia which takes the premise of redubbing a movie that next step. Fantastic script and a real undiscovered gem.

Down Periscope
Released to very little hype and a movie that only Frasier fans seem to have seen due to the involvement of Kelsey Grammar. A good movie for a Sunday afternoon.

Office Space
A great comedy in it's own right but for anyone in an office enviroment this borders on being a documentary! Photo copiers and over cheerful secretaries will rise a smile for many but cringes from others.

No Retreat, No Surrender
Yes, it is full of cliches but again, so many little touches keep me interested. The ghost of Bruce Lee, Van Damme as 'The Russian' and the gruelling training montage are just some of the picks of the movie.

Best Of The Best Collection
OK, just to clarify. The further down the franchise you get, the more absurd it gets, keeping track of Tommys family tree is a feat in itself. However the first movie is a great little martial arts movie with Chris Penn as the cocky redneck being a real standout.

Patrick Swayze and Wesley Snipes in drag, RuPaul & Robin Williams cameos and Chris Penn at his finest as Sheriff Dullard. A feel good movie with a great cast to carry it off.

Orgazmo
From the men behind South Park and Team America, I personallly believe this to be their finest hour (yes, even ahead of BASEketball). A mormon working in the adult movie industry with no female nudity and Ron Jeremy. Add to that a gangsta sushi bar owner and 'Sancho' and the laughs keep coming.

Men At Work
I wish I could put my finger on why. It could just be the 'brotherly' chemistry of Sheen and Estevez but there are enough other reasons keep you interested in the movie. Keep an eye out for some interesting cameos too if you are a film buff.
