I don’t think any of us were surprised when Kevin Smith’s film Zack and Miri Make a Porno was first given an NC-17 rating. You gotta figure any movie from Kevin Smith about two people making a porno is probably going to have to fight for an R (which it did, and won). ...

One of the first things I figured would happen when I saw the movie 21 was that I’d get to find out just how badly they changed the original story from the book, Bringing Down the House . I read it a few years back and was just astounded by how these guys took Vegas casinos for ...
