size=2>It was almost 30 years to the day (make you feel old?) that the original
version of this fable with Dudley Moore and Liza Minnelli set the box-office on
fire. I am sure many of today's audiences don't even know the original, or have
maybe seen it laying on the dusty shelves of video store
catalog sections or on cable showings.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV>Now, the story has been "re-invented" with new comic star Russell Brand in
the lead role, and Helen Mirren as the "butler/nanny" that was originally
portrayed by the late great John Gielgud.</DIV>
<DIV>This promises a good early-Spring diversion, and a lot of laughs!</DIV>

(PG13)<BR></FONT><FONT size=2>Ok, here comes one of my rants: What is the
problem with all of you in seeing this dynamite movie? Is it the title? It does
make sense in the context of the film. Is it because you think it is fan-boy
genre fiddle-faddle? How wrong you are!</FONT></FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT color=#000000 size=2 face=Tahoma>So many of you go by the critics,
well, take a look at the outstanding reviews for this!<BR>I know that there is a
lot of trash out there on the nation's movie screens, and money is tight, but,
as a general rule, if we play it at THE AVON that means it has passed our
standards of quality! Granted, sometimes stinkers do get past us, but in 14
years, I can count the number of real bombs on both hands...really.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT color=#000000 size=2 face=Tahoma>So, in other words, if you want a
real clever thriller that takes the much-liked movie "Groundhog Day" a few
serious steps further, give this a chance!</FONT></DIV><FONT color=#000000
