Reviews

I felt compelled to write a review because of all the negative ones, which I just don't understand. I thought this was a fun movie. Is it the greatest story? No. Is it a bit predictable? Yes, but is it at least well told? Yes! Are there some laugh out loud moments? Yes, plenty! I don't tolerate bad movies, especially bad comedies and this absolutely isn't one of those. I feel like this movie has gotten a lot of undeserved hate. Ignore the negativity, go into this film without expectation and I think it will surprise you like it surprised me.

Tim Dingal (Ben Stiller) and Nick Vanderpark (Jack Black) were best friends, neighbours and co-workers, they were inseparable. Nick was always coming up with ideas to which he always finds out would never work, Tim advises him to focus harder on the things he does, in taking his advice, Nick comes up with an incredible idea: An aerosol Can with a contents capable of making Dog Sh*t vanish, "VaPOOrise". Remarkably, Nick is able to come up with the right Chemicals and things to actually make the stuff work! from this, "VaPOOrise" is put on the market, becomes an instant success and makes millions of dollars. Nick is now able to buy all this amazing stuff and jealously quickly consumes Tim because he can't believe how crazy the whole situation is, later he becomes Drunk, picks up his neighbours Bow and Arrow, points it towards his house, Fires... and then his real problems begin.

All in all, to describe the film as "Sh*t, but good!"

as I say, give this a chance! So many things are not being considered about the movie, I read a comment stating that the characters were not as they were in the video game, but the way I look at it is that at least the movie included ALL of the characters from the game were placed somewhere in the film. Personally I thought there was a pretty plot to the story, It was basically a rescue mission for a group of refuges and a soldier who is being turned into a hideous beast. Also to bring to all's attention, Raul Julia, who played M. Bison (Brilliantly) died before (or just after) the movie was made so I believe the ending was changed or cut, so for all thoughts who were disappointed in the ending may be interested in that.

So in the long run, there are just a few points too consider when you see this movie, so if you keep these in mind, you will see what I see, Street fighter: The Ultimate Battle!

Viva La Bam beats Jackass and Wildboyz with a stick! It is simply just something like you've never seen before. Bam is of course rich from being a pro-skater and a Jackass star but this is the best yet.

Bam is simply a genious when it comes to crazy ideas, with is house and torturing his parents, over the first series we've seen Skateboards, Firepoles, Rock shows, Buldozers, Axes, Gambling, Fat people, cars, Reunions, Half-pipes, Scavenger hunts, Mail-order brides, Draw-bridges, Destruction, Elephants, Don Vito, Abandonment, Bees, The Bloodhound Gang , 30 ft. Tunnels, Screams, Laughter and Compton ass Terry! And that's just the first series!!!

If you catch Viva La Bam on the tube I would seriously suggest watching it, I personnaly think that there has not been a bad episode, but be warned when the show starts it is pretty difficult to change the channel.

In closing, Viva La Bam I now consider one of the funnest shown on all television, It's gonna be a real shame if this gets taken off the air, so enjoy it while it lasts!
