Misty Eyez Drag Queen Movie Reviews  
Misty Eyez
Umm It was good ***(Three Stars)
I was not really sure what to expect when I saw this movie, I am somewhat of a Jack Black fan so I went with an open mind, let me tell you that this film was hilarious, especially if your a fan of the Benny Hill style of humor.  Jack's  every being is so funny, his movements and his over dramatic gestures truly make you laugh out loud.  By the way his accent was great.  They even poke fun at every day things like taking a dump, he is always on that toilet, and it's funny.  Everyday things make you laugh, and why is it that every big fat girl falls for the really ugly super skinny guy?  That doesn't make sense to me but its realistic. I have big friends that only date twink boys, and was it me or did they choose the ugliest Mexicans they could find to play the supporting cast of this movie, is that part of the humor that I just didn't get?  The best thing is that he is able to laugh at himself as he runs around in super small stretchy pants as his little package wobbles too and fro.
Its a very simplistic story this obese boy named Nacho (Jack Black) who grows up as an orphan, who then begins working in the orphanage as a chef.  His dream has always been to become a wrestler and he finds a way to become an armature wrestler to get extra money to help feed the children.  Its a touching story and there is an interesting love twist with Sister Encarnacion (Ana de la Reguera) its just a fun movie. and my favorite line is "Im not talking to you... you crazy"
If you are a fan of silly comedy, especially the slap stick humor of the old physical black and white comedy shows like The Three Stooges you will most definitely enjoy this film.
 
Nacho Libre

Nacho Libre
