Beautiful, moving film.

It's an amazing and heartbreaking story.

The acting in this movie is really good.

The film's masterful storytelling did its job. The message was clear. No need to overdo.

Now, here's a little obscure and underrated flick. Drop Dead Sexy is a dark humor comedy starring Jason Lee and Crispin Glover (George McFly from Back To The Future) that never reaches its climax. It's like the whole movie is just one big foreplay without the actual pleasure of sex. Sure we can enjoy foreplay, and some hints of a felatio, but to go without any of those two things is a crime with a girl (story) like that. Again, it seems that macabre and black humor comedies always resort to dead people for a source of laughs, and as you probably guessed this is the case here. This isn't Bernie, but a hot chick so there's that love is in the air vibe to spice things up. Characters are relatively developed and very typical, adding more to the mediocrity of the movie. Still this should be enough to keep you entertained for an hour and a half.Frank and Eddy are two dumba**es without money or any respect for the law. Frank being the smart one, accepts a job from a local mafia boss Spider to smuggle 250.000 $ worth of cigarettes, but after a little accident on the road the truck with them explodes. Two of them are now in quite a pickle, and again Frank thinks of a way to get some money: he decides that they go grave-robbing. Eddy being the grave digger, leads them in and after they dug up the grave with the necklace, they find out that there is no necklace and only a corpse of a beautiful young woman. As the night watchman spots them they rush out of the cemetery with the girl in the back of their truck. Stuck with a dead body and in debt with the local mobster the dynamic duo is in a seemingly desperate situation, but they will find a way out of it

"Drop Dead Sexy" is a pretty funny, but dark comedy. The plot: Frank and Eddie (Lee and Glover) are friends who are looking for a big score. When Frank is sent to deliver cigarettes to the evil Spider (Pruitt Taylor Vince), their truck explodes. But the plot thickens when Spider wanted them to die. Frank needs to get money fast, so when he sees that a rich young woman named Crystal (Melissa Keller) died, Frank and Eddie decide to dig up the body and blackmail the husband. They realize her death isn't all what it seems. Eddie also begins to fall in love with Crystal...Jason Lee and Crispin Glover have good chemistry together. They make most of the jokes work. The movie does get into some themes with necrophilia, which could turn some people off. Vince plays a scary gangster, Brad Dourif (The voice of Chucky) makes a weird cameo appearance as a way too interested morgue attendant. The movie is set basically around a strip club, so there's lots of gratuitous nudity. (That's not a bad thing...) This is the time of year when Lionsgate puts a movie out that's normal not shot on digital junk like "Heebie Jeebies". See also "Creep" (2004) or "Blind Horizon" (2003) Overall, "Drop Dead Sexy" is worth seeing for the actors and somewhat unusual plot. For more insanity, please check out: comeuppancereviews.com

Saw film at its Austin premier. Expected comedy but 'Drop Dead Sexy' exceeded my expectations. I usually stifle my giggles and snorts of enjoyment in darkened theaters. However, like most of the audience, I too let loose and chuckled away! The characters all worked in hilarious harmony. Individually each held a scene on their own. Great casting! The writing was also superb. Lee and Glover were a perfect bungling duo. Keller's drop dead role was carried off without her ever speaking a line. Shaye's portrayal as a mother figure was a scream ~ right down to her beaver. Vince and Reitman earned my respect as bungling bad guys that heightened the over all humor. To say that I liked this movie is an understatement. Like last year's independent film, 'Sideways', this little film should make it big. Especially when movie goers who enjoyed the likes of 'Fargo', 'One Night at McCools' and 'Raising Arizona' see it and spread the word. Great job cast and crew.

The last thing we need is another film about a heist gone wrong from amateur criminals that try too hard to make us laugh. The Coen Brothers have exhausted the quirky criminal element, and quite frankly they're a force one shouldn't try to live up to, which is what this film does. It tries to be a lot of things, but comes up short in so many ways I'm thinking about creating my own website dedicated to criticizing this film. I got a copy from the same team who made the pathetic and silly film "Pendulum," and I must say I saw very little signs of improvement. Jason Lee can't act, and he never could, and Crispin Glover, well, he's Crispin Glover and so what. The novelty of his persona has run so thin I predict he'll be appearing in the center box of Hollywood Squares by the end of this year, and that's only if he's lucky. If you stay away from any film this year, please, let it be this one.
