The Greatest Movie Ever.

We can rant and rave about all of the new crappy movies that are out there today. We can shed tears over the Hollywood stars and their spouses splitting up. We can spend $11.50 on a single movie - only to be disappointed by the fact that it took us 2 hours working at a horrible job to save up that much money, and then just spent it on 2 hours of watching Ben Stiller in a role that we’ve already seen him in 14 times in the past 9 months. We can do all of those things. And we do. And we love every minute of it. But that’s not the point of this post…

What we don’t do enough of is celebrate those truly amazing performances that get no credit in the box office. The actor displays such brilliance in his smile, his fighting, his sensitivity, and his passion for Kindergartners that he earns himself political influence years later.

Of course we all know the breathtaking film I’m talking about…Kindergarten Cop. I recently purchased a bootlegged version off of a homeless man in downtown Seattle (the greatest city in the world) for $1. Tell me where else you can find such fine filmsmanship for $1 and I’ll GIVE you $1. Maybe even $1.50. The point here is…you can’t. And who knows what kind of foolish purchase you’d make with one of my hard earned dollars. Anyways, I nearly screamed like a little girl for Nick Carter when I popped in the movie and first caught glimpse of Detective John Kimble. Dectective John Kimball displayed strength with the bad men, and showed tough love with the little boys and girls. I respect that. I also respect former body building champions that tell little girls that they are police officers, not princesses. There’s no reason to build false images. And, “WHO IS YOUR DADDY, AND WHAT DOES HE DO!” Who’s not going to answer the question that Arnold poses to little Dominic? While sitting on my sofa, eating my popcorn, I yelled out “YOU ARE ARNOLD! YOU ARE!!” And that’s when I knew. Kindergarten Cop is the greatest movie ever.
