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 Average Rating:
 Rating:  - Has some errors but is still very goodCrime comedy sequel to 1995's Get Shorty. This time John Travolta's loan shark turned film producer has quit the film industry to get into the music business, and with NTL Records boss Uma Thurman he's managing up and coming young starlet Christina Milian, who may be about to make it big. But her former manager, wannabe gangster Vince Vaughn, isn't happy that Travolta has become her new manager and neither is Vaughn's boss Harvey Keitel of Carosell Entertainment, as she was still under contract and ...

It was quite formula and many of the actors just walked through their parts. Chili Palmer (John Travolta "Grease" (1978)) ex-shylock goes from movie producer to record producer with the discovery of a suppressed singer Linda Moon (Christina Milian.) Naturally she is under contract to a bad guy. Well so it does not look too simple or like some second rate musical, ... Read More Rating: - Be Cool, it's lukewarmNot the same snap and fizz the first one, "Get Shorty", had but still well worth a look. The casting is great but the story about the record industry although adequate doesn't seem as edgy and believable. I don't know if that is because Gene Hackman was more believable or the story was better in the first. Maybe this felt to much like the first ones overall premise of wiseguys being outdone by Chili Palmer, played by John Travolta again. Certainly worth seeing but I would recommend renting before buying. ... Read More Rating:  - AwesomeMy favority comedy by far. The cast of characters in this movie is hilarious. A must see! Rating: - nice funny movie to watch!i reccomend this movie because its entertaining and funny. Its deffinetely one you would want to watch more than once. |
