5.0 out of 5 stars Crazy wonderful!!!!, January 2, 2012
By 
This review is from: L.A. Story (Amazon Instant Video)
This is crazy wonderful movie!!!! Ahhhhhhh...I enjoyed it so! Sarah Jessica Parker is very amazing in it! All her crazy spinning and youthful craziness fits so nicely with this whole crazy movie :) Ahhhhhh, I enjoyed her so! The part where he (Steve MArtin's character) describes this paining in such a detail and then... (oh,I won't spoil the surprise) is just hillarious!!!!! I LOVED this movie! Wonderfully crazy it is! I can't believe I've never seen it before since it was made in '91!

5.0 out of 5 stars L.A. Story: Whimsical, Funny, and Pithy, February 11, 2007
This review is from: L.A. Story (Amazon Instant Video)
L.A. cares about you. Revelations from a road sign, a Stationary Bike Park, long, sustained booming sounds, earthquakes and heartaches and Valdi's balls. A magical love story, a mystical muse, and a commentary about the contempory madness that is sorta LA, this is a movie you don't want to miss. Steve Martin at his best (and he wrote it!).

This review is from: Novocaine /L.A. Story (DVD)
This movie has to be one of the whackiest movies on the list with Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas. If you like to go to the dentist, and who doesn't, I recommend you make an appointment to see this movie. The funny man Steve Martin has a few hilarious parts where in one he runs around with a giant molar. Well, don't want to give away the plot because it sneaks up on you without notice and before you know it your teeth are pulled without a little bit of Novocaine.
