Alive and Lubricated (2005)

WARNING: Any woman watching this movie will probably become a lesbian!
5-4-3-2-1, LUBRICATE. You must be prepared for this movie with lots of lubrication for a number of reasons. Beer is the lubrication of choice IF you are talking about alcohol. You will also need lawn chairs.
The Coen Brothers, The Farrelly Brothers and Kevin Smith (he must have a brother) might want to watch their backs because here come The Butler Brothers! If you like any of the above mentioned people, you will probably love this movie. I laughed hysterically through the whole thing.
Picture yourself as a female fly on the wall while listening to the way men think. If you are a guy, you will probably relate. This movie will also make you rush out to rent Shannon Tweed DVDs (I would recommend "Cannibal Women in the Avocado Jungle of Death") and wonder what it means to be "John Cusacked"! AND...what IS a hot tomato hand job? There are a number of serious questions raised in this movie that are not answered BUT these questions raise other questions. It is endless and does make you giggle!
The comparison between baseball and seduction is perfect. If you don't go for the 'fence', you are never gonna hit a home run. That is what I got out of it and it does make sense. The innuendoes between sex and candy bar names is priceless! It is an ad campaign to use sex to sell chocolate which results in SEX!
The music is great! A little bit of blue grass, a little bit of punk, a lot of rock and a tiny bit of what sounds like lounge music. Hey...I like to be surprised!
Stay lubed, babies.......
Runtime: 75 minutes and mostly in black & white
This film is available on DVD.
