Hilarity, Extreme
Familiar with the sheriff's department in Reno, Nevada? They are a fine group of individuals: well-seasoned, well-meaninged, hard working folks that protect the nighttime streets in the Biggest Little City in the country. And then the day crew shows up, Dangle and the rest, and all heck breaks loose in the town. Well, the crew has been transplanted to Miami in their newest and first feature film: Reno 911: Miami, and I'm happy to report it doesn't let us down.
Dangle and his crew have been invited to a law enforcement convention in the great city of Miami, and being the schumks they are, they board their bus and travel to it. However, due to a computer mixup, they arrive at the convention and are not registered, so they are forced to stay at a seedy motel. This sets up the scenario of the movie perfectly, as a plague sweeps through the convention and it's up to our lowly team to protect the streets of Miami.
Those of you who have seen Reno 911! before are very...
The Lost Version Rocks.
There is more to this DVD than first meets the eye. Not only to you get the Digital DVD to download the movies on the DVD into your IPOD, but you also really do get a "LOST VERSION" of the movie! Since all the other reviewers have chosen to review the original movie which is also on this DVD, I thought I'd give you a run down of the "Lost Version." In the "Lost Version" there is a huge extended trip across country, where you watch the Reno Sheriff's Department stopping at a scad of different road-side attractions. There are more scenes of everybody partying in Miami. There is even a quasi-Lesbian scene with Wendy Covey and Mary Birdsong...but you don't see any skin and Wendy Covey leaves before anything happens. You also see more of the "love scene" between Thomas Lennon and Kerri Kenny-Silver. Junior's adventures with the underage Asian girl and also covered in more depth. I could go on and on, but to sum it up, the "Lost Version" is COMPLETELY different from the movie shown...
a genuine laugh riot
Never having seen "Reno 911" on TV, I really had no idea what to expect from "Reno 911!: Miami," the full-length theatrical version of the Comedy Channel cult favorite. I figured that the movie would be silly and childish to be sure - and I was certainly not disappointed in that regard - but I was definitely not prepared for just how terribly funny and utterly endearing it turned out to be. All you overpaid writers of "Wild Hogs," "Evan Almighty," "License to Wed," "Norbit," etc, please take note: THIS is how to make a screwball comedy.
A playful take-off on the you-are-there reality TV show "Cops," "Reno 911" features the crazy, slapstick-ridden antics of the most inept law enforcement agency this side of the Keystone Kops. For their big-screen debut, these fun-loving goofballs leave their home-base in Nevada and head off to Miami for a national sheriff's convention, giving them a chance to wreak their own unique brand of havoc on the unsuspecting citizens of South...
