("Capelight Pictures"; DVD):
Since some-time around November 2010 things had been pretty slowed down here on this very blog for reasons that I described you all before in one of the (from now on viewed-back) latest 'General Informations' postings here on this very blog and so also a lot of categories'n'stuff just came off short like for example also the 'Movie Reviews', so it's really about time that things are about to be heated up again anyway, and that's what I'm about to do for you right now and finally the next entry of the category of the 'Movie Reviews' is here and now coming for ya all. And it's one that I wanted to do now already for some months. So, yeahr, here we go...
As the next one here you'll now get my review of the BRUCE CAMPBELL movie "MY NAME IS BRUCE". (It's from 2006, but for what I know it was released in Germany as a DVD first back then in 2009.) Per Accident I got aware of this movie and finally bought it, pretty excited. The legendary and almighty BRUCE CAMPBELL is playing no one else than himself (more or less, haha;-)... at least I do hope so, haha;-)...) in a movie that should showcase a plot that sounded truly nothing but great. And you know what, since I first watched this whole "EVIL DEAD" and "ARMY OF DARKNESS" stuff back then (thanks to my uncle, haha;-)...) I'm really a big, big fan of the one and only and truly nothing but almighty BRUCE CAMPBELL (by the way BRUCE CAMPBELL was also the matter why I started watching the current T.V. Series of the name of "BURN NOTICE" and I became a huge fan of this series and I can't wait for that the first "BURN NOTICE" movie will finally be done and out, with BRUCE CAMPBELL as the protagonist, just that you know about it) and so this one here was a 'duty-to-buy-movie' for me. What it worth it?!? Well, let me tell ya...
It was worth every single 'duty'-feeling and 'buy'-move to get it!!!
And now more about it, and prepare yourself for one hell of a great story...
It all starts in a little shithole of town or village named GOLD LUCK, a little town somewhere in the U.S.A. that have had his fair shot of glory and on richness in the now for a while already gone past due to some enlarged mining activities and the bustling working-mentality of a little (or once not so little at all) 'colony' planted and populated by 'a bunch' of Chinese immigrants. And like we all do know these Chinese immigrants had been busy like ants in their colony and worked hard and harder and even more harder in the mining business and so they wangled GOLD LUCK quite a piece of success, ah, and like we all have already expected they all used to eat only and nothing else but tofu. (Damn it, I love this brilliant play with your usual clichès and stereotypics, it's fantastic, just great!!!) But bad luck and disaster hit GOLD LUCK and the busy mining Chinese immigrants... and pretty soon the once very well crowded and hard working and wealth generating, ablooming 'colony' of the mentioned Chinese immigrants was empty and bleak and dismal, expect one solely lonely survivor that was left, and the halycon days of GOLD LUCK had been nothing else but history pretty soon and pretty quick. That's what all the guys in GOLD LUCK does know, even Jeff and his friend that drive at the beginning of the movie to the local Chinese graveyard to go and fuck (or at least to try it anyway) with some local High School (?) Gothic bitches. By the way, Jeff is pretty soon revealed to us as an incredible big BRUCE CAMPBELL fan, and as one hell of a damn fucking nerd with no real life, haha;-), just that you know it. But what in GOLD LUCK nobody knew was that beside the also solely tofu eating Chinese descendent there remained GUAN DI, a evil warrior ghost from China that was something like the patron saint of tofu as well as the Chinese immigrants (seems that the good GUAN DI haven't done the best job so far when it comes to the Chinese immigrants... or maybe he just didn't care about it respectively them at all, this old dirty bastard, haha;-)...), and Jeff his friend and the girls awaken GUAN DI while they were busy with defiling the graveyard. Okay, after GUAN DI was out of his bed he started to hack and slay his way through GOLD LUCK and its indwellers, like every evil undead ghost uses to do it anyway like we all should know by watching movies and T.V. (and movies and the T.V. never lie to us, like we all also should know;-)...), yes, and then it all starts really and chaos and razzle-dazzles are bound to occur, trust me. Jeff decides to recruit no one else than BRUCE CAMPBELL himself to help him and all the unlucky GOLD LUCKers in the battle against the terrorspreading blood thirsty evil GUAN DI. (Because who if not BRUCE CAMPBELL knows how to deal with evil ghosts and evil undeads in the right way?!?) But if BRUCE CAMPBELL would be in the right mood to deal with one of his most 'nerdy' fans?!? And does BRUCE CAMPBELL got the time for this anyway?!?
Questions, questions, questions...
Answers, answers, answers...
During the GUAN DI tragedy hit GOLDLUCK by the balls BRUCE CAMPBELL is doing his work in film and act "CAVE ALIEN II", one of his next milestones. And latest at this point the movie here becomes nothing but incredible great!!! There aren't many actors out there that are doing, playing, acting such a fantastic and ironic and humorous parody of themselves and their work (respectively that part of their work they are still linked to the most) like mighty BRUCE CAMPBELL is doing it here!!! No matter if he plays the constantly drunken and constantly heavy drinking asshole of an 'Splatter-Movie-Star' that annoys everyone in his environment, that drinks the pee of 'his waterboy' who is totally annoyed by its 'Stars' behavior and pees into his drink-bottle, that is divorced from his wife that he is still stalking at night totally drunken with phone calls and nasty maledictions, that got taken for a ride again and again by his agent that is also fucking his former wife now, and that is so totally down that he's also drinking his Whiskey and Beer out of the food bowl of his dog and got a cheap whore that got only for a very few weeks now lust hole instead of a dick as a birthday present by his agent, and so on and on, it's just incredible and truly great and fantastic. Much respect for BRUCE CAMPBELL for 'playing himself' this way here, and what's even more great is the fact that you can really see how he's enjoying it. Again, it's just really that damn great and also again much, much respect for it!!!
Okay, Jeff finally needs to kidnap BRUCE CAMPBELL to take him with him in the trunk of his junk car, and arriving in GOLD LUCK after some obnoxious insulting of the GOLD LUCKers by BRUCE CAMPBELL the 'Star' (and 'Hero', all in one person) starts to think that it's all just a great game, the 'real' birthday gift of his agent and something like new movie beside "CAVE ALIEN II" and so he agrees on fighting (and defeating) GUAN DI. And from now on it gets even greater, chaos and jokes and incredible funny situations in the play between BRUCE CAMPBELL who thinks it's all nothing but a game, a joke, a movie and acts like a dumb, big, spoiled child, and the GOLD LUCKers who somtimes or often (if not all the time) can only hardly deal with the weird affectations of the 'Star' and their 'Hero', and then the hunt of and fight against GUAN DI finally starts... just to end pretty soon in a bloody and hilarious fiasco. BRUCE CAMPBELL is revealed as a drunken coward, countless GOLD LUCKers are slayed down by GUAN DI (as well as the in panic escaping BRUCE CAMPHELL himself, haha;-)...) an the outcome of this battle is that Jeff's throwing his BRUCE CAMPBELL sanctuaries in his garbage can, calls BRUCE CAMPBELL (who skedaddled back to his home, what's a camper, and on his escape he beats kids and steals cars;-)...) to tell him that now he is taking business into his own hands and then he starts his hunt on GUAN DI. And then the 'Star' and even the 'Hero' in BRUCE CAMPBELL finally awakes and he's making his way (with above mentioned whore) back to GOLD LUCK to rescue Jeff and help him in his final fight against GUAN DI.
And how it all turns out you really have to watch by yourself, point and fact, and it's just great!!!
Ah, by the way, the 'total end' or the 'final finale' of this movie is a damn funny and weird thing, trust me, just watch it, you just have to, it's really awesome stuff, haha;-)...
What's also great at "MY NAME IS BRUCE" is the great humour and how all the characters are worked out, very precise and with a big love when it comes to the details and to the play with your common clichès (just take for example the weapon-loving gay redneck couple that's living in GOLD LUCK), and also how this whole movie and all the actors are taking themselves so great 'non-serious', and also how some actors do play damn funny 'double-roles' in the movie (like, for example, the agent of BRUCE CAMPBELL), and not to forget the great music. So, hell yeahr, this is the complete package that you really just have to watch and love, it's a brilliant piece and a great movie of one of a kind (that's not to be watched that often), nothing less but maybe even more!!!
That all the acting is just great work I don't have to tell ya, it should be clear, and also the pictures and the whole 'moved-pictures-movie-stuff' is just done perfectly, and also the german dubbing rocks (the original english one rules anyhow) and there are also some extra bonus things on this DVD disc. So, okay, I think I've said it all now, yes, except: You need to have this one, it won't get better than this one here!!! Holy shit!!! (10 of 10 points)
Now you get the official trailer of "MY NAME IS BRUCE" (and it should also be the english one... or at least I really do hope so, haha;-)...), so just enjoy it and then go and buy the DVD and watch the complete movie and just have fun and a good time!!! Cheers!!!
