Editorial Review:

Be Cool takes its own advice: It's slick, Hollywood entertainment that kills two amusing hours with relative ease and comfort. Better than leftovers but not as tasty as a full-course meal, this sequel to 1995's hit comedy Get Shorty (and based on Elmore Leonard's 1999 sequel novel) finds former loan shark Chili Palmer (John Travolta) itching to get out of the movie business, so he hooks up with a newly widowed music executive (Uma Thurman) to launch the career of an up-'n-coming Beyoncé-like singer (newcomer Christina Milian). A mock-black manager (Vince Vaughn), his sleazy boss (Harvey Keitel), and an upscale gangsta-rap executive (Cedric the Entertainer) all have a competing stake in the fast-rising pop diva's future, and this sets the plot rolling in a fun but rather hand-me-down fashion that lacks the savvy panache of Get Shorty but still provides plenty of lightweight humor. The Rock and Outkast's André Benjamin provide the best laughs in supporting roles that effortlessly relieve the movie from the symptoms of sequelitis. --Jeff Shannon

Description

Starring an unbelievably hip all-star cast, including John Travolta, Uma Thurman, André 3000, Steven Tyler and The Rock, and bursting with the hottest music in the biz, Be Cool is the wildly hilarious tale about a gangster turned music mogul and what it takes to be number one with a bullet. When Chili Palmer (Travolta) decides to try his hand in the music industry, he romances thesultry widow (Thurman) of a recently whacked music exec, poaches a hot young singer (Christina Milian) from a rival label and discovers that the record industry is packin' a whole lot more than a tune!

2 out of 5 stars The reason to watch: Vince Vaughn as a pimp/producer/manager.......2007-04-12

There is one reason and one reason only to see Be Cool: the outrageous performance of Vince Vaughn as Roggie, a would-be music producer/manager who thinks he's black. Seriously. Between the Burberry jogging suits, gold chains, played out slang, and Pimps Up Hoes Down attitude I was almost amused enough not to notice that the rest of this movie was absolute [..]. Almost, but not quite.

So if you're going to watch this movie, go ahead and fast forward to all the scenes with Roggie because the rest of it is more or less useless. That's my two cents.

1 out of 5 stars Disc was stolen!!!.......2007-02-16

I am not able to provide a review; when I received my shipment from Amazaon, the disc was missing from the Be Cool package! I was livid!!!! This is the first time I ordered movies from Amazon; I will think twice about ordering again.

3 out of 5 stars ringtone.......2007-01-12

I am trying to get the ringtone on Raji's cellphone. its really cool. anyone know?

5 out of 5 stars Be Cool.......2007-01-09

Often times the sequel doesn't measure up. This isn't the case with Be Cool, the sequel to Get Shorty. You will laugh, and laugh, and laugh. And this is truly a great family movie. No bad language, or nudity. Our family watches this movie alot in our truck traveling, or in our home when there's nothing on television. Buy it, you'll love it too!

1 out of 5 stars You wanna know what immoral means?.......2006-12-28

Immoral is not Miss Nevada's private parts. Immoral is not two guys holding each others' cranks, or Miss USA getting drunk. What harm have they done? Values you say? Then let's talk about this movie. Immoral is glorifying the garbage values of fame and greed that are defacing our mental landscape and reducing us to nothing. THAT is immoral. Immoral is creating a film that appeals to youth and tells them that beating people to death is funny or even cool. It's telling us that 9mm shootings, recording sessions and cellphones are approximately equal, and that in all cases it's brand recognition that counts. It's the obscene money that the entertainment industry successfully reaps from a population that is increasingly working near minimum wage, and then has the gall to legally pursue if they share MP3s. Immoral is everything that this film throws at you, and that it's "skillfully" constructed with. It's the "money and power is everything" lie that allows our corporations to ship all our jobs to desperate third world people who will now join us in this spiral towards the bottom, while we be out of work. If you can watch this without your brain or your heart telling you that there IS something really wrong, you have been put to sleep. I'm no old lady moralizer or religious zealot. I don't object to Kill Bill, or Natural Born Killers, I don't think I can quite put my finger on the difference right now, and I don't think the Da Vinci Code or Passion Of Christ are irreverent, but this movie calls for the wrath of the Lord to rain down on the perpetrators. Scientology, Mr Travolta? Well, at least the other stooges in this farce don't claim to have a philosophy other than money. Repulsive! Don't pay for this. If you can see it for free, think it over, and put your thoughts together on what is happening to us, do.

Description

Focusing on accepting and accommodating differences." Not Separated at Birth" -- Zak and Wheezie are bickering over what they'll build for the new playground - the xylophone slide or the drum trampolines. When they wish they had separate bodies, Quetzal gives them some magic crystals -- and their wish comes true! But when Wheezie's slide collapses because she didn't follow directions, she misses Zak's patient input. Zak makes the trampoline so loose and saggy that Cassie and Emmy can't jump on it and he misses Wheezie, who always knows how to make things fun. "The Greatest Show in Dragon Land" -- The kids and dragons are really excited about flying to Wonder World amusement park. When they find out Zak and Wheezie have a broken wing and are unable to fly, however, they agree to accommodate their friends by walking there instead. "A Tall Tale" -- Eunice the unicorn, who is terribly near-sighted, has lost her glasses, and Max and Emmy join the dragons to help her find them. Max wants to steer Eunice so she can see where she's flying, but he's too small to climb up on her back. And when they spot an object that looks like her glasses, he's too short to reach it. Poor Max, who was already feeling frustrated about being too little to do the things he wants, feels even worse. "Dragon Sails" -- The group sets sail for Rainbow Canyon in search of a special rainbow-colored crystal to complete Cassie's shimmering crystal set. When Ord's heavy weight rocks their little boat and they all fall into the water, he's sad because he fears they'll have to continue on their adventure without him. He hates being so big! The gang solves the dilemma by crafting a bigger, Ord-size boat and off they go again. "Staying within the Lines" -- The Stickleback Mountains have lost their colors! They were washed away in a big rainstorm, so Quetzal puts the gang to work painting the scene. Max, who is not worried about staying within the lines, gets carried away with the blue he's using for the stream. As the river threatens to overflow, Emmy and Cassie finish off a boulder dam just in time. The five adventures in Dragon Tales: It's Cool to be Me! are linked by four songs, "Shake Your Dragon Tale," "Hello," "Zoo" and "Round & Round."

5 out of 5 stars Dragon Tales.......2007-05-09

My granddaughter loves the Dragon Tale DVD's. Thank God there are nice DVD's out there.

5 out of 5 stars Continuous play finally!.......2002-05-25

We just love the dragon tales cartoons. My three year old has learned so much about friendship from this series, and loves the music. The DVD itself is good. You can choose to play each episode once or play them all continuously. There is also and option to play the music segments which consist of four songs. Some of the songs are repeated from previous DVD's, but my daughter doesn't mind since they are so catchy.
Better than some of the previous dvd formats, and they still do not include a song between the chapters which would have been nice.

Between the Burberry jogging suits, gold chains, played out slang, and Pimps Up Hoes Down attitude I was almost amused enough not to notice that the rest of this movie was absolute [..]. Almost, but not quite.

      So if you're going to watch this movie, go ahead and fast forward to all the scenes with Roggie because the rest of it is more or less useless. That's my two cents.

      1 out of 5 stars Disc was stolen!!!.......2007-02-16

      I am not able to provide a review; when I received my shipment from Amazaon, the disc was missing from the Be Cool package! I was livid!!!! This is the first time I ordered movies from Amazon; I will think twice about ordering again.

      5 out of 5 stars Be Cool.......2007-01-09

      Often times the sequel doesn't measure up. This isn't the case with Be Cool, the sequel to Get Shorty. You will laugh, and laugh, and laugh. And this is truly a great family movie. No bad language, or nudity. Our family watches this movie alot in our truck traveling, or in our home when there's nothing on television. Buy it, you'll love it too!

      1 out of 5 stars You wanna know what immoral means?.......2006-12-28

      Immoral is not Miss Nevada's private parts. Immoral is not two guys holding each others' cranks, or Miss USA getting drunk. What harm have they done? Values you say? Then let's talk about this movie. Immoral is glorifying the garbage values of fame and greed that are defacing our mental landscape and reducing us to nothing. THAT is immoral. Immoral is creating a film that appeals to youth and tells them that beating people to death is funny or even cool. It's telling us that 9mm shootings, recording sessions and cellphones are approximately equal, and that in all cases it's brand recognition that counts. It's the obscene money that the entertainment industry successfully reaps from a population that is increasingly working near minimum wage, and then has the gall to legally pursue if they share MP3s. Immoral is everything that this film throws at you, and that it's "skillfully" constructed with. It's the "money and power is everything" lie that allows our corporations to ship all our jobs to desperate third world people who will now join us in this spiral towards the bottom, while we be out of work. If you can watch this without your brain or your heart telling you that there IS something really wrong, you have been put to sleep. I'm no old lady moralizer or religious zealot. I don't object to Kill Bill, or Natural Born Killers, I don't think I can quite put my finger on the difference right now, and I don't think the Da Vinci Code or Passion Of Christ are irreverent, but this movie calls for the wrath of the Lord to rain down on the perpetrators. Scientology, Mr Travolta? Well, at least the other stooges in this farce don't claim to have a philosophy other than money. Repulsive! Don't pay for this. If you can see it for free, think it over, and put your thoughts together on what is happening to us, do.

      Be Cool takes its own advice: It's slick, Hollywood entertainment that kills two amusing hours with relative ease and comfort. Better than leftovers but not as tasty as a full-course meal, this sequel to 1995's hit comedy Get Shorty (and based on Elmore Leonard's 1999 sequel novel) finds former loan shark Chili Palmer (John Travolta) itching to get out of the movie business, so he hooks up with a newly widowed music executive (Uma Thurman) to launch the career of an up-'n-coming Beyoncé-like singer (newcomer Christina Milian). A mock-black manager (Vince Vaughn), his sleazy boss (Harvey Keitel), and an upscale gangsta-rap executive (Cedric the Entertainer) all have a competing stake in the fast-rising pop diva's future, and this sets the plot rolling in a fun but rather hand-me-down fashion that lacks the savvy panache of Get Shorty but still provides plenty of lightweight humor. The Rock and Outkast's André Benjamin provide the best laughs in supporting roles that effortlessly relieve the movie from the symptoms of sequelitis. --Jeff Shannon

      Description

      Starring an unbelievably hip all-star cast, including John Travolta, Uma Thurman, André 3000, Steven Tyler and The Rock, and bursting with the hottest music in the biz, Be Cool is the wildly hilarious tale about a gangster turned music mogul and what it takes to be number one with a bullet. When Chili Palmer (Travolta) decides to try his hand in the music industry, he romances thesultry widow (Thurman) of a recently whacked music exec, poaches a hot young singer (Christina Milian) from a rival label and discovers that the record industry is packin' a whole lot more than a tune!
