John Travolta, Uma Thurman, Vince Vaughn, Cedric the Entertainer, Andre 3000, Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson, Robert Pastorelli, Christina Milan, Steven Tyler, Harvey Keitel, Danny DeVito
John Travolta is back as Chili Palmer in BE COOL, a sequel to the comedy smash GET SHORTY. This time, Chili becomes a different kind of “hit” man – he abandons the movie industry to bring his wiseguy skills and negotiation tactics to the music business. When a friend is offed while they’re at lunch, Chili takes the opportunity to visit the guy’s wife, Edie (Thurman), and pitch himself as her new business partner at an independent record label. With a promising young pop-star-in-training as his protégé (Milian), Chili has to juggle her faux-urban manager (Vaughn), his gay, wannabe-actor bodyguard (The Rock), Russian mobsters, and an eloquent gangsta music producer (Cedric) to save the label and land a hit – and keep from getting popped himself.

The Superbowl game
itself was a decent one, particularly the second half which produced
some offense and a somewhat tension-filled ending (let's face it,
McNabb choked), but what was more...

I don't know why but every time I hear Vince Vaughn say "twinkle, twinkle, baby, twinkle, twinkle" in the trailer for BE COOL I get a little giggly. Not like "school girl who's totally crushing on Mr. Popular

We got an early look at this poster a

January 5, 2004: Be Cool script review:
