With Six You Get Eggroll, a review by GSyren


TitleWith Six You Get Eggroll (5-014437-864437)
DirectorHoward Morris
ActorsDoris Day, Brian Keith, Pat Carroll, Barbara Hershey, George Carlin
Produced1968 in United States
Runtime91 minutes
AudioEnglish Dolby Digital 5.1
SubtitlesDanish, English, Finnish, French, Norwegian, Swedish
OverviewDoris Day and Brian Keith have a field day in this clever up-beat romantic tale of love, marriage, kids and coping.
Abby (Day) is a self-sufficient widow with three rambunctious sons. Jake (Keith) is a mild-mannered father of a stubborn 18-year-old daughter. Put them all together and you've got one outrageous family! Featuring a hilarious supporting cast, including Barbara Hershey, Jamie Farr, William Christopher and George Carlin (in his first movie role), this high-spirited laugh fest will keep you smiling long after the happy ending.
My thoughtsAs my friends know, I am a huge Doris Day fan. People have said that Doris' later films are not her best, and this being her last I wasn't sure that I was going to enjoy it. I need not have worried. It may not be her best, but it's certainly not her worst either.

It plays a bit like a sitcom, and there isn't much chemistry between Doris and Brian Keith. But there are some good bits, and Doris still looks good in her mid forties. I don't know why she decided to not do any more films, but the upside is that she quit while she was still at the top.

If you're a Doris Day fan, then this is a no-brainer. If not, well, it's an hour and a half of harmless entertainment, but certainly not essential viewing.

Supernatural Marathon, a review by addicted2dvd


Supernatural: Season 1

EPISODE 8: Bugs
After a construction worker is killed by insects burrowing into his brain, the brothers investigate a town's history and find that a new housing development is being built on sacred indian land - with a curse attached.

Guest Stars:
Andrew Airlie as Larry Pike
Carrie Genzel as Lynda Bloome
Tyler Johnston as Matt White
Jim Byrnes as Anthropoloy Professor

My Thoughts:
This is another good episode. If you do not like bugs this one may make you squirm a bit. I know I personally could have went without that damn big spider the kid had! I liked the reason they came up with for the bugs to go nuts the way they did.

My Rating:
