Yeah, da’s coo’: The Ladies Man
by Christian De Matteo

Solid

            That’s right, Solid, just like the Ladies Man might himself say.  Is this an extremely stupid and immature movie?  Indubitably, and that’s what makes it great.  Tim Meadows does what few SNL alums have been able to do and brings one of his characters to the screen brilliantly.  And he does this by not betraying the character at all.  We believe Leon’s wayward and accidental search for love, because it is exactly the way we would expect him to go about it.  We believe that when things go wrong he would wait to solve them by “having sex and waiting for a random occurrence” because that is exactly how we believe things work in his world.

            With a wonderful supporting cast of Will Ferrel and Billy Dee Williams (who gets to narrate a bit more successfully than Ed O’Neill in Wayne’s World, getting more out before being shut up), Meadows’ Phelps goes on a quest to find his special “Sweet Thing,” a term he gives to every woman.

            This is an ideal watch with friends, specifically the kind who can relax and enjoy a good, stupid comedy without tearing it apart, but even an enjoyable by your lonesome.  Or better yet, watch it with your very own Sweet Thing…or three.
