I loved it too, brilliant. I had no idea who played who until King Louie first spoke ... unmistakable Christopher Walken.

I love Ben Kingsley's voice anyway and he was awesome as Bagheera. So many good voice actors in this flick!

If you like to see how movies like this are made, watch this.

If you see it, stick around for the credits. They do a little something, pop up book style, with them.

I saw this today.

I liked it but I don't think that it's going to be as lucrative as the previous installments. It's truthful, though, and it's got Cedric the Entertainer plus a bevy of other wonderful folks.

Stars: Giovanni Ribisi, Joely Richardson, Adrian Sparks

Thanks to a friend of mine that has 'connections' I was able to see a screener of this movie that won't open in theaters until April 29th.

I really liked it

97% on Rotten Tomatoes critic meter

The whole movie was filmed with 3 iPhones but you would never know it. It is a crazy, funny, sweet, movie with a heart, about two trans women sex workers in LA on Christmas Eve after one gets out of jail and finds out her pimp/boy-friend has been cheating on her. They spend most of the movie looking for Chester, the cheating boy-friend and is about their adventures while looking for him. It does show the dirty underbelly of LA that you don't see in pretty LA movies.

I had been wanting to get it on Amazon and was going to pay to stream it but just found it on Netflix. Neither of the women leads had ever acted before but you would never know that either-they are such good, natural actors.

I don't know what the life of a trans woman sex worker is like but I know the movie treats them well, they are not looked at as a joke or the butt of one. One review said, "By the end of the film, we are reminded that they have hearts that can be hurt, and are doing what they can to survive".

Went to see this movie last night.
I really liked it, which I was kind of surprised about.
It's not a demanding film to watch, basically a action film.
The only thing you have to use ya head for is the subtitles.
If you want a film that's got action, humour and is in a great city then this is for you.
It's good to see it on the big screen, with ya popcorn and drink and a friend.
Friday & Saturday nights are made for this kind of movie.
So check the trailer out if you fancy a look.
