Death to Smoochy

[Dymetrie]

Just finished watching this (with a Dr Who and Last Crusade interlude) and found it superb.

It was reccomended by young SINC and made me giggle

Synopsis:

As Smoochy catapults to fame - scoring hit ratings and the affections of a jaded network executive Randolph makes the unsuspecting rhino the target of his numerous outrageous attempts to exact revenge and reclaim his status as America's sweetheart

Ed Norton was superb and very much different to how he normally is, Jon Stewart (from The Daily Show) was quite amusing, and you would not believe the words coming out of Robin Williams' (Randolph) mouth!

Some of my favourite lines...

There's a nice link to American History X in it too, whether it was intentional or not I have no idea but funny none the less.


Glad you liked it, and I think everyone should see this film it's awesome

Had this on DVD for ages. Very silly, but really funny. Robin Williams best film recently imho.
