A high-profile male model finds that rising up from the bottom only means you've got further to fall in a tense tale of competition in the entertainment industry starring Bryce Wilson, Kim Porter, and Chingy. International model Tony "Wise" Good transcended his inner-city origins to become one of the best known models on the planet, but even the famous can fall victim to a corrupt government and the greed of industry insiders. Though there was a time when Tony had all of the perks one would associate with such a glamorous career, all of that changed in an instant as the very people he thought he could trust turn against him in a reprehensible act of betrayal that threatens to turn his dream life into a waking nightmare. ~ Jason Buchanan, All Movie Guide

Spoof series torch-bearer and Airplane! mastermind David Zucker steps back into the captain's chair for yet another round of cinematic shenanigans in the latest installment of the Scary Movie franchise, this time mocking such frightful blockbusters as Saw, War of the Worlds, The Village, and The Grudge. An alien invasion threatens to wipe out the entire human race, but not if Cindy Campbell (Anna Faris) and her nymphomaniac pal Brenda Meeks (Regina Hall) have any say in the matter. With the clock counting down for all of humankind and the extraterrestrial invasion about to begin, the fearless but slightly dunderheaded heroines are joined by a series of celebrity guests including Dr. Phil, Carmen Electra, Chris Elliot, Shaquille O'Neal, and, of course, Leslie Nielsen in ensuring that the planet remains free of the alien menace and prepared for yet another installment in the over-the-top, pop-culture deflating satire series. Although two versions of this film officially exist (a PG-13 one and an "Unrated and Uncensored" one - evidently they skipped the R version) the unrated cut only reportedly features about 3 extra minutes of screen time, devoted to jiggling and bouncing breast implants. ~ Jason Buchanan, All Movie Guide

When 2005 NBA MVP Steve Nash and two-time NBA champ Manu Ginobili split the defense, there's bound to be trouble, and what would a little shake-and-bake be without the talents of such bad-boy ballers as Tracy McGrady and Dwane Wade? Add a healthy dose of intimidation a la Shaquille O'Neal into the mix, and the stage is set for some serious basketball. ~ Jason Buchanan, All Movie Guide
