'The Suicide Squad' Is Gory, Gratuitous, but Great
'The Suicide Squad' is at its best when it focuses on its characters and commentary on real-life issues, but stumbles when it relies too heavily on gratuitous gore and insensitive humor.
Car Wash (2008)
Cheerleaders are funny. They'll do anything to win The Nationals. And in the dark comedic world of Paul Thomas, that includes "busting up" the competition. But that takes thugs. And thugs cost money. What's a cheerleader to do? Have a car wash! A bake sale! An amateur photo contest! And if that doesn't work, clean their clocks in poker! Car Wash. It's all about sex, envy, charity and greed. Hey, you know the saying... girls just wanna have funds!
