Welcome to Cinemassacre Rental Reviews' Febru-Carrey. Four Jim Carrey movies all February long. This week the gang does Man on the Moon.

The film pays particular attention to the various inside jokes, scams, put-ons, and happenings for which Kaufman was famous, most significantly his long-running feud with wrestler Jerry "The King" Lawler and his portrayal of the bawdy lounge singer Tony Clifton.

Cinemassacre reviews Flash Gordon in this Rental Review. Flash Gordon is the hero of a space opera adventure comic strip created by and originally drawn by Alex Raymond.

They land on planet Mongo, where the despot Ming the Merciless (Max von Sydow) is attacking Earth out of pure boredom.

Cinemassacre reviews Born Free in this Rental Review. Born Free (1966) is the heartwarming true story of a British couple who teach their pet lioness how to survive in the wilds of the African jungles. Joy and George Adamson (portrayed by real-life married couple Virginia McKenna and Bill Travers) involuntarily domesticate several lions while living in Kenya. They keep one, named Elsa, until she is fully grown, and rather than turn her over to a zoo, they decide to train her to live like a wild animal so that they can release her into her natural habitat. Geoffrey Keen is a sympathetic government official who convinces the Adamsons that they should set Elsa free to avoid being ordered to place her in captivity. The film, based on Joy Adamson's book, is poignant and emotional without ever becoming banal or overly sentimental. The title song and film score both won Academy Awards.

In this episode of Cinemassacre's Rental Reviews James, Justin and Kieran review G.I. Joe: The Movie from 1987, which capped off the first two seasons of the TV run. In the movie, G.I. Joe's Special Task Force finds its mission to preserve peace and freedom threatened by the evil Golobulus. Created at the height of the G.I. Joe craze in the 1980s, G.I. Joe: The Movie was intended as a theatrical release to be closely followed by The Transformers: The Movie. However, the G.I. Joe film encountered unexpected production delays which allowed the Transformers feature to be released first. Due to the poor box office performances of The Transformers: The Movie and My Little Pony: The Movie, G.I. Joe: The Movie was instead released direct-to-video as well as aired on television in syndication, first in feature-length format and later split into a five-part miniseries format as part of the series' syndication package.

The video store was a wild place in the 90s, every movie was trying to get your attention. So, a lot of companies went down the path of making their films look as crazy as possible. In this Cinemassacre Rental Reviews the guys found some of their favorites. Also, spoiler alert, this is the LAST episode of Rental Reviews. (It's also our 100th episode. Good spot to cap it off.) The guys are still working on the channel and their goal is to focus more on solid, scripted videos; from the reoccurring shows (like AVGN, YKWBS, and Retail Reviews) to new, one-off content like location tours, collections, and in-depth reviews. And if you're still craving Rental Reviews, we'll probably do some podcasts soon after we update the website. So, stay tuned... and thanks for watching these last two years!!!
