Movie Review: ‘Cars 3’
Movie review: ‘Cars 3’ NEW YORK — Fasten your seatbelts and start your engines for a wild (and often ear- splitting) ride in “Cars 3” (Disney), the latest installment of the family-friendly animated franchise. Six years after the initial sequel and 11 since the series began with “Cars,” the anthropomorphic autos are back with a vengeance. Director Brian Fee ramps up the racing action (and the roar of the engines) while introducing a fleet of new characters sure to please young viewers — not to mention toy manufacturers. Happily, there’s much more than the dizzying blur of NASCAR-like action. Screenwriters Kiel Murray, Bob Peterson and Mike Rich inject a nice amount of heart and pathos into the comedic plot, and add winning messages about second chances and the value of mentoring. The years have been kind to ace racer Lightning McQueen (voice of Owen Wilson). He’s still at the top of his game. But just over his shoulder is a new generation of faster vehicles, like the brash rookie Jackson Storm (voice of Armie Hammer). “Enjoy your retirement,” Jackson tells Lightning as he whizzes past. In a flash, Lightning is sidelined by an accident. Disillusioned and depressed, he retreats to his adopted home of Radiator Springs. There he draws on the support of his loyal tow-truck sidekick, Mater (voice of Larry the Cable Guy), and comely Porsche sweetheart, Sally (voice of Bonnie Hunt). Sally knows Lightning must look to the future. “Don’t fear failure,” she insists. “Take a chance. Try something new.” A spiffy fresh paint job by Ramone (voice of Cheech Marin) helps. -

A fascinating self-portrait and social and artistic history." — Booklist "Bookended by looks at his youth growing up poor in South Central Los Angeles and his development as a now well-known collector of Chicago art, this memoir is fun, wacky look inside Marin’s imagination." — Publishers Weekly “A mildly diverting, modestly charming memoir from a surprisingly multifaceted showbiz survivor.” – Kirkus ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ CHEECH IS NOT MY REAL NAME … BUT DON'T CALL ME CHONG An insightful memoir from a counterculture legend. In CHEECH IS NOT MY REAL NAME, Cheech Marin candidly writes about being the wisecracking kid in south central Los Angeles, resisting the draft as a young adult, his chance meeting with Tommy Chong in Vancouver, and how he formed one of the most successful comedy acts of all time to ultimately break up and reunite over the years -- and still tour to this day. Cheech will take you on an incredible journey with his famous storytelling. You will learn about how this son of a cop became the face of the recreational drug movement. -

Author: Donald E. Wilkes, Jr., Professor of Law, University of Georgia School of Law. From 1995 to 2003, the most recent year for which we have statistics, sentenced drug offenders accounted for 49% of the growth in the number of inmates in federal prisons. In 2003, 55% of all federal prison inmates (87,000 of 158,000) were sentenced for drug offenses. The most famous of the federal inmates incarcerated for a drug offense in 2003 was Tommy Chong of the legendary comedy team of Cheech and Chong. Chong, a movie actor, comedian and musician nicknamed “the pope of pot” because of the hilarious, mischievous stoner characters he played in a half-dozen pro-marijuana movies he co- starred in with Cheech Marin, began service of his nine-month sentence on Oct. 8, 2003. It was while serving his federal sentence in a privately owned California prison operated by a foreign company that Chong started work on his new book with the wonderful double-pun title, The I Chong: Meditations from the Joint (Simon Spotlight Entertainment, New York, 2006). -
