★★★★★ Angie Everhart & Gabrielle Reece are hot hot hot!
December 29, 2005 Reviewer: filmfreek (Austin, Texas)

This might be the funniest movie I have seen all year.

The script is great.

And the women are really hot! Angie Everhart has never looked better than she does in a red bikini, Gabrielle Reece is a GODDESS and the four women who play the Bonsais are super sexy, in every flavor!

This is definitely worth the price!


★★★★★ A classic sexy sports comedy! What a surprise!!
December 27, 2005 Reviewer: Culture (Los Angeles)

Did I miss this in theaters?

Because the Bandit is back! Burt Reynolds is in great form as the coach of a beach volleyball team made up of strippers. Better than Hazzard, better than Longest Yard, it's a raunchy, sly ensemble comedy with a smart script and lots of laughs.

As a longtime fan, I was glad to see this wasn't a cameo role for Burt, but that he's in nearly every scene, and he's surrounded by a young, all-star cast, including Angie Everhart and Gabrielle Reece.

The movie is set in Malibu, and most of it takes place on the beach, so there is lots of skin shown off (and the unbelieveable "booty" of ex-Miss Usa Kenya Moore. That deserves an award of its own). DL Hughley is very funny as Burt's "son," and Paul Rodriguez should get an Oscar (no kidding) for his part as a Chinese man named Wong (no kidding).

This movie has a great pedigree too. The great script was co-written by Al Ruddy, who won the Best Picture Oscar (!) for Million Dollar Baby, and also did the original Longest Yard and Cannonball Run movies. And Grey Fredericksen who won the Oscar for Godfather Two is another producer.

The DVD also has very funny extras that are as good and funny as the movie ("Hoosiers meets Hooters" is the name of one extra and that says it all).

Cloud 9 will be tops in any sports movie collection. And it stands up with Dodgeball and Anchorman and 40 Year Old Virgin and Wedding Crashers as a funny guy's movie.

Wong Number? Rodriguez's Cloud 9 controversy!

Hispanic hero and show business pioneer Paul Rodriguez may have a lotta ‘splainin’ to do about his role in Cloud 9, the motion picture comedy released on Fox Home Entertainment DVD January 3rd!

In Cloud 9, Rodriguez plays Wong, a Chicano masquerading as a stereotypical “Chinaman” in Malibu.

“When we wrote this script, we knew the role of Wong would be a tightrope for any actor,” says Brett Hudson of Frozen Pictures.

“But we wrote it with Paul in mind, because we knew he could pull it off. Wong adds another level to the picture-- a look at the class struggle in Malibu-- and America!"

Hudson and wrote and produced Cloud 9 with Burt Kearns of Frozen Pictures and Academy Award winning producer Albert S. Ruddy.

And what happens to Wong? Buy Cloud 9 and find out amid the laughs!

*****

Paul Rodriguez, the first Mexican-American to star in a network TV sitcom, one of the Original Latino Kings of Comedy-- and a pallbearer for Cesar Chavez-- is well aware of the controversial nature of his hilarious role in Cloud 9.

He speaks in this exclusive interview:

“Wong is more confused than the Bush Administration! Wong is a very confused young man! There is no Wong. There’s a Mexican guy who thinks he’s Wong for the wong reasons. Basically money. He’s a blue collar Joe, just trying to make a living as a gardener. But he has reached his sod level. His glass ceiling. And he figures that if you’re Mexican you’re just a gardener, but if you’re Asian, you’re a landscaper! Which means about eight bucks more.

“For eight bucks he’s willing to put throw away his roots, his nationality, his ethnicity, everything that he holds pride with and becomes something that he’s never going to be. He doesn’t speak the language and does a terrible accent. That’s why I’m perfect for it. I’m terrible Asian person.

“I think everybody in this movie is conning something out of someone. Basically the story is about a bunch of people trying to be what they’re not. Everybody in there is living a lie. You know they’re trying to be something they’re not and deep down inside, they know that they’re not.

“They’re breaking the golden rule of Shakespeare that to their own selves they’re not being true. They’re lying to themselves and anyone who lies to himself is, he’s not a liar, he’s a fool.”

As always, Rodriguez (who gave Cloud 9 the subtitle, “Hoosiers Meets Hooters”), ends with a joke:

“I want to apologize to all the Asian Pacific Rim for my degrading portrayal of a great and wonderful culture. A culture that brought us Confucius and the longest wall in history and the Ming vases and some of the best tasting food this side of Mexico!”

Gabrielle Reece is Cloud 9's Amazon sensation!

Gabrielle Reece is the Amazon goddess of beach volleyball. Now she’s about to become a sports movie icon as she goes toe-to-toe with sexy Angie Everhart and head-to-head with Burt Reynolds in the motion picture, Cloud 9.

“The part of Christina Hansen was written specifically for Gabrielle,” says Burt Kearns of Frozen Pictures, who wrote and produced Cloud 9 with Brett Hudson and Academy Award winner Albert S. Ruddy. “We knew she was impressive on the sand, but who could have expected her presence on screen? She’s a powerful athlete who combines the lithe elegance of Uma Thurman with the grace of Charlize Theron. And she does action better than both combined.”

Kearns and Hudson were so impressed with Reece’s performance that they've written a special starring role for her in the upcoming Frozen Pictures heist film, ‘Two Buck Chuck.’

Stay tuned! In the meantime, be sure to catch Gabrielle Reece on Fox Home Entertainment's DVD version of Cloud 9, available January 3rd—with exclusive bonus features produced by Frozen Pictures!

Gabrielle Reece speaks about her role in Cloud 9:

“If there was a bad guy in this film, I guess it would be me. Christina is a really serious and competitive volleyball player. Kind of a Terminator of beach volleyball. And she’s a little bit uptight about the strippers coming in on her territory. She’s just a really competitive volleyball machine.

“Christina is someone who’s got a lot of strength and maybe some respect, and there’s still beauty and grace. So maybe within being the villain, she is the inspiration.

“Honestly, I don’t even know if I’d be quite as nice as Christina has been. If you came down to your home court and there was kind of a bunch of mayhem and guys throwing dollars at girls on your court, you would try to get rid of them for sure. You wouldn’t even be as nice as to leave. You would find the way to make them leave. And if you couldn’t make them leave, you’d get the men in your life to get them to make them leave! So, yeah, you pee in the corners. You’re very territorial of your area. And if you’re serious about it and someone’s down there doing something that’s not serious, you get rid of ‘em!

“Beach volleyball is probably the sexiest women’s sport. So if you’re trying to really maximize your sex appeal value, you would get strippers and beach volleyball players somehow moshing together. But I guess the thing that was really funny to me was the idea of Burt’s character, sitting there, looking at the television at a beach volleyball player, looking at a girl strip, looking at the television-- and thinking there’s a connection there!”
