Film: One Night at McCool's (2001)

DVD: Enhanced 16x9
One Night at McCool's

"Do you like water?"
"I love it. It's actually my second favorite thing in the world."
"Really? And what's your first favorite?"
"Fucking."

Review: This is a funny movie about one woman's effect on three different men who all perceive her very differently. Her desire for a dream home creates a small hurricane among the men as they all try to please her. Michael Douglas is hilarious as the hit man that Matt Dillon's character hires to kill Jewel after she takes over his house. Blink and you will miss a cameo by the World's Greatest Surfer, Kelly Slater.

"Do you hate me now?"
"No, no, no... No."
"Oh yes, you do!"
"No, it's not that, okay? It's just the sex and the violence all in one night, it's a little much."

"That's some first date, killin' her boyfriend."
"Well, it gave the relationship a certain intensity."

4 out of 5 Stars
