Movie Reviews of Saturday Night Live - 25th Anniversary
Movie Review: This Show Truly Deserves A Special Like This
Summary: 5 Stars
A show like "Saturday Night Live" definitely deserves a special like the one it got for its 25th anniversary special. Stars from all walks of comedy showed up that night, bigger stars appeared and the late greats were payed tributes.
Steve Martin, Chevy Chase, Bill Murray, Will Ferrell, Molly Shannon, Kevin Nealon, Mike Myers, David Spade, Tom Hanks, Christopher Walken, Garth Brooks and Chris Rock are just a few of the big stars on hand to celebrate the festivities this evening. Of the show's big stars, only Eddie Murphy and Dana Carvey are absent.
There are touching tributes to Chris Farley, Phil Hartman, John Belushi and Gilda Radner included. Gilda's is the best, as Cheri Oteri and Molly Shannon present the classic "Nerds Make Out" skit.
Also, there are great montages each representing a five - year period in the show's hsitory, as well as a hysterical "Weekend Update" montage.
The only thing not so good is the musical performances. I didn't like any of he oerformers. They could've had someone like Aerosmith or Billy Joel or Paul Simon perform or include the montage of msuical performances (there was one included when this was aired on television).
Other than that note, this is a great look at "Saturday Night Live's" first five years. Let's hope that a big bash is in store for the show's thrirtieth anniversary special.
