Well, hello there, kind folks. If you’re visiting this blog of mine, I presume that you have a certain interest in the cinema. As for me, even since my early childhood, I have had a deep love of everything related to movies and television. As far as I can remember, I have been more at ease in front of a screen than in the yard, outside, playing. It is a great way to travel, though other people’s stories, without having to foot any kind of steep bill. Over the years, I feel that movie-watching has even fuelled my own creativity.

All that being said, I welcome you in my Cinephile’s Nest. I hope you enjoy it here, feel free to come back at any time. Here you will find reviews of current movies and older ones. TV shows also. Some classics that have remained some of my favourites, some that have disappointed me. I will use a very basic star (*) system to grade them from 1 to 5 (5 being sliced bread level). Remember, these are just my tastes. I will try to explain in each review what I liked about these particular movies, without giving spoilers.

Il y aura aussi des critiques en français pour les films francophones, car j'aime également le cinéma dans ma langue maternelle. Avant d'apprendre l'anglais, plus jeune, je louais des tonnes de films traduits en français, surtout ceux de Bud Spencer et Terrence Hill. Ma mère a eu le choc de sa vie lorsqu'un jour, dans la boîte d'un de ces films, Deep Throat avait malencontreusement inséré. Une expérience formatrice pour le jeune cinéphile que je suis.

Bienvenue à tous, amusez-vous bien.

I welcome you all here, enjoy yourself.

House Party 3 (1994)

Genre: Comedy
Directed by: Eric Meza
Cast: Christopher “Kid” Reid, Christopher “Play” Martin, Bernie Mac, TLC
Running Time: 100 minutes



Kid is planning to marry his girlfriend Veda, all the while trying to make some headway in the music business with his partner Play. As the bachelor party comes along, nothing goes as planned.

They really should have quit while they were ahead with the first sequel, because this third installment in the House Party franchise was a waste of time. The story is uninspired and the new elements to the supporting cast are horrid. Bernie Mac’s Uncle Vester is so over-the-top, it is grating. The band Sex as a Weapon, played by TLC, was annoying beyond words. A few moments made me chuckle lightly, but it was not enough to make this enjoyable.
