"Mouse Hunt" is a handsomely mounted live-action cartoon that is deadly serious about being silly. It's bursting with intricately plotted, exquisitely timed sight gags and some of the best live action cartoons working today: Nathan Lane, Lee Evans, William Hickey and Christopher Walken.

 

Lane and Evans play Ernie and Lars Smuntz, the squabbling heirs to a Rube Goldberg-style string factory. After the unfortunate demise and even more unfortunate burial of their father, they also become heirs to a ramshackle mansion designed by a famous, if loony, nineteenth-century architect. When their luck goes south, the Smuntz brothers decide to fix up the house and sell it for millions.

 

Unfortunately for them, there's another interested party and though he may be a mouse, he's got squatter's rights, plus he's cuter and smarter than all the Smuntzs put together. The film is one bungled Smuntz brothers attempt after another to kill the mouse and the mouse one upping them with a flair worthy of Machiavelli. My favorite ploy involved wall-to-wall mousetraps and a flying cherry. There's no doubt that this mouse, adorably played by a crack team of trained rodents and one puppet, could take out the Smuntzs in the twitch of a whisker, but he's having too much fun toying with them. I laughed a lot.

 

Evan's Lars is a sweetly innocent man-child with a heart full of goodwill and a head full of air. He shows off his skill as a physical comedian in a tour de force dance of death with his factory's string making apparatus. Lane's Ernie is a wise-cracking gourmet chef who, contemplating food with deadly force, can finesse whimsy and menace into the line "Bring me my Gouda." That same finesse makes slow burns and double-takes look like new inventions.

 

Christopher Walken checks in as a psychotically obsessed exterminator and William Hickey, in his last performance, does his patented whacked-out senior citizen with intriguing verbal skills.

 

"Mouse Hunt" may be too violent for younger kids, but it does have a sweet moral about working and playing well with others for balance and some of the best and most meticulous slapstick since Mack Sennett and Buster Keaton.

one:

Okay, I was dragged kicking and screaming to this movie. I made my friends pay for my ticket in protest when the majority voted to see this and I was stranded at the movie theater without my car. When I first heard of it, I thought the premise was absurd, the make-up laughable and the jokes seemed racist. I was right about the first two things. Yes, you are not fooled for one minute that Marlon and Shawn are actually either of the 2 pampered princesses they impersonate. Yes, you can't imagine anyone else being fooled either. But for one moment, just suspend your disbelief and take this movie for what it is... a comedy. A gut-busting, rolling on the floor laughing and quotable one-liners kind of comedy. This was the funniest movie I have seen in a long time. This movie makes fun of everyone-- black, white, rich, poor, dorks, cool people... no one is safe. And the brother who falls for Marlon in disguise had me pee-ing in my pants! And there's even bit of commentary about social and racial stereotypes. All in all, an enjoyable experience

On a mad, crazy whim, I checked out this movie with a female friend of mine. We had just finished off a pitcher of margaritas at a Mexican restaurant and decided to pop over to the mall to see what was playing. We had mentioned seeing "Day After Tomorrow" but when we got there, "White Chicks" somehow seemed like the more logical choice. We realized we weren't drunk enough to enjoy the movie so we scrambled to find a bar. Luckily, there was a restaurant nearby. So we went up to the bar and each had a double shot of tequila. We ran back upstairs and settled in for some "White Chicks" action. If I had sat down without the tequila swimming in my brain, I would have run screaming from the theater after ten minutes.

 

"White Chicks" is awful. I mean, it stinks to high heaven. I was wishing I had a large tub of popcorn so I could jam my head into it and suffocate on the kernels. This movie was an abomination. There was one scene where one of the "White Chicks" has a bathroom emergency and farts up a thunderstorm. The audience I was with laughed their heads off. It was then that I knew I was in Movie Hell.

 

The guy playing the "White Chick" hungry black guy was the only thing funny about this movie. His date with his rubber-masked white chick had me laughing. A little. Other than that, I was just sitting there hoping the projector would explode. Unfortunately the movie kept rolling but eventually came to an end.

 

Upon leaving the theater, my friend and I agreed that "White Chicks" was one of the worst movies of the year, if not the decade. I was screaming my lungs out in the parking lot. The tequila did not help make the movie funny. Or good. Or tolerable.

 

So remember this important safety tip: Don't drive drunk to the movies. There was an accident this time and the wreck was called "White Chicks".
