Kattapacalypse is pretty funny, but ultimately unsatisfying and not worthy of multiple viewings. Katt Williams is a funny dude but his material here is choppy and disjointed. He comes onto the stage like a lion abut by the end is laying down with the lambs.

From the director of Revenge of the Nerds, and it's easily the most outrageous parody in years. Horny King Looney of Troy (Rip Torn) sends slacker general Awesomest Maximus (Will Sasso) to maintain peace with rival King Erotic of Greece. But when Prince Orlando, who's more into fashion than fighting, steals the King's wife Ellen (Sophie Monk) to be his BFF, it's war! Will Awesomest live up to his godly destiny? Can he defeat the mighty warrior Testiclees (Ian Ziering)?

Can he light a fire under his gold-digging wife Hotessa (Kristanna Loken)? The only thing that can be predicted is that this is one savagely funny farce from the people know how to throw a toga party!

If you're a heist genre fan you may find bits and pieces of this one worthwhile, but most likely you will find yourself slackjawed by the dangling, unresolved storylines that are continually introduced here.

Perhaps one of the more unusual Christmas concerts I've seen, this family-and-friends affair anchored by Kate and Anna McGarrigle is oddly disarming, in an "I'm not sure this is charming or not" sort of weird way. It may not be the perfect fit for every household, but there is that elusive something on display here that I can't put my finger on that I found intriguing. Even perpetually craggy rock icon Lou Reed looked like he was enjoying himself.
